Description
-
Correspondence between Paul Lieber Adams and Rosenwald Fund staff, including Edwin Embree, William C. Haygood, Dorothy Elvidge, Vandi C. Haygood, and Sumiko Oura. This comprehensive file documents the entire fellowship process for Paul Lieber Adams, beginning with Mrs. Haygood sending a blank application and the subsequent submission of two complete applications that include his plan of work, photograph, and a transcript from the Centre College of Kentucky. The selection process is detailed through correspondence between Fund staff like Dr. Embree and recommenders like Dr. Robert Lynd, as well as confidential reports on Adams from Dr. Elizabeth P. Lam, Dr. Robert K. Merton, Dr. Jitsuichi Masuoka, and Dr. Jameson Jones. Following the grant award, the file contains the notification letter from William C. Haygood, Adams's letter of acceptance, and numerous exchanges between Adams, Haygood, and Dorothy Elvidge to establish and adjust the payment schedule, which is documented by multiple Payment Vouchers. During the fellowship, Adams corresponds about his location, requests a loan and an extension, and receives replies concerning these matters. The record concludes with a post-fellowship inquiry from a Ms. M. Read and the Fund's response, providing information about his status.
