Content Summary:

Julius Stone was a member of the Social Science Research Committee which set up the Australian National Research Council in 1942 and 1943. In 1952 this committee became the Social Science Research Council. A history of the ANRC 1942-1952, written by Dr K.S. Cunningham in 1966, notes that he "examined the records of the ANRC in the National Library (MS 482) as well as files of the SSRC and documents in the possession of Julius Stone".

A copy of Cunningham's processed history is arranged first in this series and it is supported by the documents referred to in his foreward. They consist of Stone's correspondence with R.C. Mills, Eric Ashby, H.R. Carne and K.S. Cunningham, circulars, notes relating to a report issued by the committee set up in 1942 at the request of the Prime Minister's Committee on National morale to report on the project for the National Social Science Research Council, and typescript copies of the report dated 21 November 1942. Circulars, an incomplete set of Agenda papers and minutes of meetings for the period from 1952 until 1969 complete the series.
