Collection of World
War Records Being Placed
In Texas U. Library
Austin, Tex.—Records of the
wheatless and meatless days
of Texans during the World
War wiil be handed down to
posterity by the archives of the
University of Texas where
there are filed away Increas-
ingly valuable evidences of the
activities of people of the
state during the time of war. ■
More than fifty filing cabinet'
drawers in Hie library archives
of the University have been1
filled with collections made by;
the Texas War Records Col-'
lection Bureau, established in!
October, 1918, and which,
functioned for several years.;
Instigated by the desire of sev-;
eral Texas historians that the I
war records of the State be
gathered and preserved, the
bureau selected Dr. Milton R.
Gutsch, professor of history at
the university, as director of
the work. He made an inten-
sive drive to acquire as soon af-
ter the war as possible evi-
dences of every activity en-
gaged in by civilians during
the conflict.
The search for material
brought to the bureau books,
war phamplets, tags, buttons,
war music, photographs,
newspapers, war maps, and:
countless State records.
Especially complete and
valuable is the collection of
war-time propaganda posters
from, not only the United
States, but Britain, France,
Italy, Belgium, Germany, Can-
ada, and Russia. Some of these
are advertising posters with
war mottoes of private corpo-
rations, and are regarded as
vivid illustrations of the crys-
tallization of public opinion
during war years.
