{"value"=>"<p>The files are arranged alphabetically by state and city. The years 1910 through the 1950s saw continuous changes in the relationship of the National Board to the motion picture industry, the public, and to the various government agencies responsible for overseeing the motion pictures. The letters in this sub-series reflect these changes and also chronicle the activities of the National Board in organizing resistance to censorship at all levels and its efforts to improve the quality of motion pictures by organizing public opinion. The correspondence is with field representatives of the National Board, local censors, state and city officials, community officials, boards of education, health and welfare, women's clubs, fraternal orders, schools, newspapers, film study groups, and individuals interested in motion pictures. Of particular interest in this sub-series are the files for Boston, Massachusetts and Providence, Rhode Island, and the letters of Louise Connolly in the Georgia file.</p>"}
