U.S. Department of War Adjutant General's School, Curriculum-counselor training for separation of military personnel; includes history, charts, forms. , 1945

The collection can be divided into three segments: the period 1942-1945, U.S. Department of War; 1946- 1948, Muncie (Indiana) Community Discussion Council; and 1952-1963, Newark (New Jersey) Human Rights Commission.

The first portion of the collection relates to the U.S. Department of War and outlines the army's counselor training program. Included are histories of how the program was initially developed. There is a great deal of material pertaining to the personal service records of Mr. Anthony.

The second portion contains the records of the National Institute of Social Relations, Inc. They basically relate to the activities of the Muncie Community Discussion Council in the period when Mr. Anthony was director. Important material exists relating to racial and ethnic discrimination, Red-baiting and anticommunist activity. This material is valuable as it reflects the thinking of a mid-western community in the United States in the period following the end of World War II, as the black civil rights movement got underway and the world power struggle between the U.S.A. and U.S.S.R. threatened renewed warfare.

The most important portion of the third segment on the Newark Human Rights Commission 1952-1963 relates to the conflict at the onset of the Addonizio administration between the mayor, certain members of his staff, and Commission director Anthony, on matters of policy. There is important material relating to matters regarding a civilian review board, police brutality and minority hiring in the building trade unions. Certain materials cover the development of the commission in the early 1950's when it was called the Mayor's Commission on Group Relations. Other items included Mr. Anthony's activities at Rutgers University in the area of human relations and urban renewal and his work in handwriting analysis.
