Many were not added to by Johnson. Most other files consist of copies or printed material, and apparently were accumulated by Johnson for reference purposes. There are few original documents and such original memoranda and other transmittals as do appear are to and from Arthur Quern, James Cannon, Theodore Cooper and Michael Licata of H.E.W., and occasionally other Domestic Council staff such as Sarah Massengale and David Lissy or from persons outside of government. Major topics include food stamps, swine influenza immunization program, blood supply, President's Council on Physical Fitness and Sports, and the Department of Health, Education, and Welfare. Materials were received from the Domestic Council staff, federal agencies - particularly H.E.W. and Agriculture, public interest groups, and individuals.
