Biographical NoteReturn to Top

Thor Carl Tollefson (1901-1982), Representative to Congress from Washington State, was born in Minnesota and later moved to Tacoma, Washington in 1912. In 1930, he graduated from the University of Washington Law School in Seattle, and became a Pierce County prosecutor in 1938. In 1944 Tollefson ran as a Republican in the race for Representative of Washington State in the 6th district, which then covered all of Pierce and King counties except the city of Seattle. He lost to Democrat John Coffee that year, but ran again in 1946 and this time was successfully elected to the 80th Congress. He was re-elected to the next seven congresses, serving as a Representative consecutively from January 1947 to January 1965. During his congressional career, he served on the House Merchant Marine and Fisheries Committee from 1949 to 1964. In 1964, Tollefson was an unsuccessful candidate for reelection to the 88th Congress. Following his Congressional career, Tollefson was appointed director of fisheries for the State of Washington and later served as special assistant to the Governor in charge of international fisheries negotiations. He died December 30, 1982 in Tacoma, Washington.

Content DescriptionReturn to Top

The majority of the collection consists of the General Correspondence series. These files frequently include enclosures or accompanying material such as writings, reports, texts of bills, statements and clippings. The correspondence is divided into Agency Files, Subject Files and Legislation Files. The Merchant Marine and Fisheries Committee series consists of general correspondence files, arranged chronologically by year, then subdivided by subject. The correspondence in this series contains a large number of enclosures and accompanying items; thus there are many reports, statements, texts of bills, writings and clippings. The Bills series (1949-1955) contain material identical to that in the Legislative files, which begin in 1955; the break in 1955 probably reflects a change in Tollefson's filing practice. The Campaign Letters series (1944 -1946) contains general correspondence from Tollefson's early campaigns, including Tollefson's requests for both electoral and monetary support. The Newsletters (1963-1964) were prepared by Tollefson's office to inform his constituents about some of his work.

In his eighteen-year Congressional career, Tollefson was involved in an extensive variety of issues, as reflected in the great number of different subjects listed in the inventory. However, the papers do reflect some major areas of interest.

First of these is his intense involvement in maritime and fishing industry policies and management. Most of the materials regarding these issues are found in the Merchant Marine and Fisheries Committee series. These materials relate to the maintenance of the American Merchant Marine, including letters about the $400 million dollar peacetime ship construction and repair program of 1950, of which Tollefson was a key supporter. This series also includes papers about fishing treaties and legislation, particularly pertaining to Alaskan fishing markets. While this series contains the majority of maritime and fishing papers, further material on these topics can be found in other parts of the collection. The Agency Files in the General Correspondence series include Maritime Commission correspondence; fishery-related Subject Files and Legislative Files pertain to specific fishery or maritime legislation.

Another of Tollefson interests was management of natural resources, especially in the Pacific Northwest region. The Agency Files contain correspondence about the National Park Service, Fish and Wildlife Service, Forest Service, and Bureau of Land Management. The Subject Files include materials on Olympic and Rainier National Parks, Cowlitz Dam and other dams in the Pacific Northwest, as well as files on land management.

The papers provide a view into Cold War politics and policies. The materials include a number of Subject Files on Communism, and this topic arises in other files, such as in the Merchant Marine and Fisheries Committee files on Alaska and the American Merchant Marine. There are Subject Files on hydrogen and atom bomb tests throughout the collection, as well as recurring Army, Navy, and Defense Department Agency Files. Correspondence with the Veterans Administration and files on various veteran-related legislation document the post-war period.

The papers reflect Tollefson's involvement in commerce and public development. For example, he was involved with the expansion of the Port of Tacoma, as reflected in the Subject Files for 1959 and other Tacoma commerce files. He was an advocate for public housing; the papers contain correspondence with the Federal Housing Administration, Public Housing Administration, the Public Building Service, and the Public Health Service, as well as several Legislation Files on housing.

Detailed Description of the CollectionReturn to Top

 

General correspondence, 1947-1964Return to Top

The general correspondence files are first filed chronologically by year, and within each year divided into one of these three subseries: Agency Files, Subject Files and Legislation Files.Material in the Agency files is organized by the agencies whose policies are being discussed. In both Subject files and Legislation files, the correspondence is arranged by subject. There are some exceptions to this arrangement. At the beginning of this series, material from the years 1947-1948 are grouped together, and a "Miscellaneous" series is included, but the material appears to be much the same as a Subject File. Legislation Files do not appear in the yearly sequence until 1955. This exception seems to reflect a change in Tollefson's filing system. The later Bills series dates from 1949-1955, and is the complement to the Legislation Files.

Agency files contain correspondence from constituents and from various government agencies concerning government policies. The letters in the Legislation Files relate specifically to legislation about the subject. It appears that all the bills and issues in the Legislation Files are items that Tollefson sponsored or was otherwise involved with in some capacity. Files titled after bills are not the bills themselves, but correspondence about legislation; likewise, the "Resolutions" Subject File in 1957 is correspondence about resolutions.

There are some files in this sequence that are not correspondence. The files that are labeled "Press releases," and "News releases" are press releases produced by Tollefson's office; "Radio Talks" and "Speeches" are Tollefson's speeches.
