This is part of a series of guides prepared by the American Historical Association listing records microfilmed at Alexandria by the
American Historical Association Microfilming Project.
An American Committee for the Study of the War Documents was established in 1955 as e private group of scholars interested it documentary
research and especially in the microfilming of records of foreign offigin kept in American depositories. In 1956 the American Committee became
a committee of the American Historical Association. Its present Chairman (195^) is Professor Oron J. Hale, University of Virginia, whs was pre-
ceded by Dean Reginald H. Phelps, Harvard University, and Professor I$rnn K. Case of the University of Pennsylvania. An initial Ford Foundation
grant and additional funds provided by the Old Dominion Foundation enabled the Committee to undertake t&e cataloguing and M ic r o f il m in g of declas-
sified German records in the custody of the World War II Records Division of the National Archives (previously TAGO, Departmental Records Branch,
more recently Military Records Branch, Federal Records Center, Region 3 General Services Administration) at Alexandria, Virginia.
^he plans for screening and microfilming of these materials were prepared by a Subcommittee on Microfilming under the Chairmanship to the
end of 1956 of Professor S. Malcolm Carroll, Duke University, and his successor, Dr. Fritz T Epstein, The Library of Congress, Professor G~r-
hard L. Weinberg of the University of Kentucky directed the microfilming team in Alexandria in 1956/57 which is now under the supervision of
Dr. Dagmar Horna Ferman.

The jresent guide is a collection of descriptions of record* groups filmed by the Microfilming Project of the AHA Committee, because the
project is not yet complete, this guide will appear in installments.
The American Historical Association expresses its appreciation for the cooperation given to its Committee for the Study of War
by the staffs of the WbpM Wbr II Records Division, tfce National Archives, and the U. G. Department of the Army.

This Guide is one of a series of finding aids describing those declassified seized German records deposited at the Milit^r;- Records Branch,
Federal Records Center, Region 3 General Services Administration, that have "been microfilmed "by the Microfilming Project of the American Commit-
tee for the Study of War Documents (now the Committee for the Study of War Documents of the American Historical Association). Tne Guide contains
the text of data sheets identifying records filmed, A copy of the data sheet has been filmed as a target sheet at the beginning of each roll of
film.
The Guide covers 28 rolls of film of records from a record group containing a vide variety of documents organized according to a subject
scheme, generally without regard to provenance. The group includes materials pertaining to the activities of leading National Socialist offi-
cials, to the opposition against Hitler, the German administration of Austria, and other subjects. Other parts of this record grou..; will be
filmed at a later date.
The terms "Serial" end "Roll" in this Guide refer to the sequence of the film. Ihe "Item" number is the identification symbol on the origi-
nal folder within the captured records collection. "Provenance
11
indicates, inhere ascertsinable, the arcuival origin of the documei?ts whose de-
scription follows. The symbol "FT" means that the folder has been filmed throughout, the symbol "ITS
11
denotes that the folder has Leen filmed
selectively. "1st Frame" gives the frame number of the first page of the folder. Every exposure has been given a frame number consecutively
throughout the filming operation. The "Hotes" provide a general idea of the nature of the materials but should be taken as hints* not complete
descriptions. V/hen the German file number could be ascertained, it has been included. The nature of the records filmed makes it necessary for
researchers to check the whole guide since no index has been prepared.
The original records are located in the War Records Division II, National Archives (previously Military Records Branch, Federal Record
Center, Region III, General Services Administration) under Record Group lOUg, The microfilms are deposited in the Fational Archives, Washing-
ton 25. D.C., as microcopy Fo. T-SU and should be requested by adding to "T-gU
n
the roll numbers.

369507 Folder 8, A folder from the office of the Reichsstatthalter in Wien con-
taining the texts of incoming telegrams, 1942. Most of them are of routine
nature, dealing with travel permits and such questions. A part of the
folder has been filmed. It contains a few documoits of general interest and
a few routine items. Among the documents are items dealing with the use of
Russian prisoners of war on the railroads and one on the negotiations with
the Italian Government about the Europ&ische Jugendverband.
369653 Folder 12 (begins frame 369653). A folder of the Reichskcmmissar on
"Rlickftihrung und Bergung der Zivilbevtilkerung," 1939. This folder is of
great interest as it shows the preparations of the Germans for evacuating
people from the potential combat areas in the West beginning in May, 1939.
368784 This is a group of photostats, prepared by the 7771 Document Center, of
a series of appointment and telephone log-books of Heinrich Himmler. The
location of the originals is unkno-vn.
Folder 1. This folder is rr, ade up of four parts. The first is the ap-
pointment register of Himmler for July-August 1937. Only a few of the
entries, like the first one, are in Himmler
T
s handwriting. The second
part (begins frame 369789) is a pocket calendar for 1931 with notations
of Himmler
f
s travels and appointments. The third part (begins frame 369820)
is a similar calendar for 1930, and the fourth (begins frame 36985*3) is for
1929.
369885 Folder 2 (begins frame 369885). This folder contains the daily register
for the period 3 January-29 February 1944 and (beginning frame 369943)
2 January-16 December 1943. These calendars contain a sheet for each day
and contain the hour-by-hour appointments, trips, etc. of Himmler, Prac-
tically all the entries are in his handwriting^ the calendars were pre-
sumably kept on Himmler's desk. A few of the photostats have lines drawn
in colored pencil after the photostats were made. These are the lines
drawn around some of the entries.

of Himmler' s telephone calls in the period 16 September 1941-17August

hour by hour basis, the phone calls of Himmler are listed in his own hand-
writing. The entries give the time, name of person spoken to, place of
person spoken to, and subject discussed. Apparently sheets with a heading
