Talmadge's office staff had to coordinate the organization of constituent correspondence records. The tracking system began
with attaching the actual letter (incoming and outgoing), along with copies of approved response paragraphs. These materials
were then organized under a subject access point. Topics of interest include tax reform, Vietnam, school desegregation, busing,
gun control, social services, and the Panama Canal Treaty.
