Abstract
Collection consists of correspondence and documents concerning a wide variety of regional and national activities and associations. Most relate to the promotion of commercial and human welfare, often in the area of conservation and social legislation. Of particular importance are the files related to timber as collateral, the Columbia Basin Inter-Agency Committee, and the National Reclamation Association. In most of the organizations represented in the files, Dana either held office or was consulted as an expert adviser.
