Series III, Writings Titles A-Z - alphabetically arranged. These are essays and articles concerning issues for which there are no subject files. The first folder, "Index of Bullard's Writings Published in Periodicals," contains a chronological listing of Bullard's articles, grouped under the name of the journal in which they were published.

Series IV, Writings Subjects A-Z - Subject headings are arranged alphabetically, but material under the headings is arranged chronologically. The "Russia" subject file is the largest; Bullard was fluent in Russian and spent a number of years in the country in journalistic and official capacities. His accounts of the Russian Revolutions of 1905 (in "Russia's Revolution: 1905-1906") and 1917 (in "Russia: 1917-1919") might be of particular interest to scholars. Also notable is Bullard's close documentation of the operations of the Committee on Public Information (created by Woodrow Wilson in 1917) in Washington and Russia. Included among the folders on "The War 1914-1918" is a pamphlet entitled "How the War Came to America." Commissioned by Woodrow Wilson as part of the Committee on Public Information's activities, 25,000,000 copies of the pamphlet were printed in a dozen languages. Bullard authored many more careful accounts of World War I Europe, with attention to the post-war tensions among the european colonies that preceded World War II. His involvement in the formation and operation of the League of Nations in Geneva is recorded in several articles and political volumes specifically about the League. A small file of articles from two french socialist newspapers, LES TEMPS NOUVEAUX and LA GUERRE SOCIALE,is under its own subject heading.

Series V, Correspondence - arranged alphabetically by sender or receiver's name; it is a collection of general correspondence. The letters concern Bullard's work as a writer and official, although many are somewhat personal in nature. The largest set of correspondence, between Bullard and his mother-in-law, Mrs. Leonora L.S. Bagg, often discusses Bullard's work and plans for the future. There is also extensive correspondence with Colonel Edward M. House--principally typed copies, because most of the originals have been kept with the House Papers Collection at Manuscripts and Archives, Yale University. There is a folder of OUR WORLD miscellaneous general correspondence which covers Bullard's term as editor of that magazine, and a folder of League of Nations Non-Partisan Association correspondence covering his service in that group.

Series VI, Photographs and Post Cards - are arranged chronologically. The photographs were taken in Russia and Poland, probably in conjunction with Bullard's political work there; the subjects are military officers, members of the Committee on Public Information, villagers, victims of Jewish pogroms, and landscapes and buildings. The post cards are depictions of local landscapes, interiors, and paintings.

The folders contain photocopies of the photographs and postcards. The researcher must use the photocopies of this material. The originals are stored separately and are made available after an initial consultation with the photocopies.

Note: A White Russian banknote, minted in 1918, was removed from the collection.
