Abstract:
Papers of Thomas Barland, an Eau Claire County, Wisconsin, judge and Republican state assemblyman, 1960-1966; including both constituent and general correspondence, legislative committee files, draft bills, state budgets, files concerning government reorganization under the Kellett Commission (1965-1967), and campaign materials. The legislative files reflect Barland's interest in reapportionment, government reorganization, taxation, and civil rights.

Correspondents include Ody J. Fish, John F. Kennedy, Warren P. Knowles, Gaylord Nelson, Richard M. Nixon, Alvin E. O'Konski, and Bronson C. La Follette.
