SCOPE AND CONTENT NOTE
U.S. Council of Economic Advisers during the Ford Administration, Part 1: Alan Greenspan Files,
Correspondence, 1974–1977 presents a comprehensive record of the debates underlying the economic
policy decisions of the Ford administration during the period November 1973–December 1976.
When Gerald R. Ford assumed the office of president of the United States, following the resignation
of Richard M. Nixon in August 1974, he faced a domestic situation characterized by great economic
as well as political uncertainty. The country was beginning its slide into a steep recession, caused in
part by the embargo on petroleum shipments to the United States implemented by the Organization
of Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC), as well as by the resulting dramatic increase in oil prices.
The result was a marked slowing of economic growth along with dramatic increases in the rates of
inflation and unemployment.
The collection consists of thirty-two reels, organized alphabetically by topic, and includes a
variety of document types, including confidential White House and Executive Branch memoranda,
transcripts and summaries of meetings, transcripts of testimony before Congress, and the texts of
speeches by Council of Economic Advisers (CEA) Chairman Alan Greenspan, President Ford, and
others. In addition to official reports and correspondence from assorted branches of government,
this collection contains a great deal of correspondence from the average taxpayer and from
nongovernmental organizations. Of particular interest are documents related to the U.S. decision to
sell the national gold reserves as a final break with the Gold Standard. Starting at Reel 29, Frame 12,
an organization called the “Committee to Establish the Gold Standard” requests Greenspan’s
support for a lawsuit they have brought to enjoin the U.S. government from liquidating the gold
reserves.
The collection includes substantial material of research value on the following major topics.
Inflation and Recession
In the fall of 1974, before a national television audience, President Ford convened a meeting of
prominent politicians, business leaders, and economists called the Summit Conference on Inflation.
This was a time when the United States was slipping into the deepest recession since the Great
Depression. The severe downturn was caused in large part by the fourfold increase in oil prices
resulting from the embargo on petroleum shipments to the United States by OPEC during and after
the 1973 Arab-Israeli war.
This collection provides researchers an opportunity to review government responses to specific
major economic problems, including fiscal and monetary policy, taxation, foreign economic relations,
international finance, regulatory reform, housing construction and finance, business inventories,
productivity, environmental regulation, and the vicious circle of mutually reinforcing increases in
wages and prices. This phenomenon, which became known as the “wage-price spiral,” caused great
anxiety among economists, politicians, corporate managers, and, perhaps most of all, labor unions,
whose members were determined not to fall behind inflation in their wage settlements.
The Ford administration desperately sought to formulate policies to dampen inflationary
expectations and break the spiral, and during 1975, the double-digit rates of inflation dropped into
the high single digits. Researchers will find in this collection a large amount of significant material on
the anti-inflation decision making that went on in the Ford White House. The collection includes
debates within the administration on the usefulness of the Council on Wage and Price Stability in
monitoring inflation.
v
The most important voice in the battle against inflation and recession belonged to CEA
chairman Alan Greenspan. While acknowledging the role of skyrocketing oil prices, Greenspan
insisted that the fundamental cause of the destructively high rate of inflation was government
spending. In Greenspan’s view too much government spending leads to excessive government
borrowing, which crowds out private borrowers and causes prices to rise.
Along with rising prices, the other most unfortunate consequence of the steep recession was a
dramatic rise in unemployment to levels apparently not seen since the Great Depression.
Unemployment
During the Ford administration, strident debates raged between the White House and Congress,
as well as among Cabinet officials, on the most effective policies to reduce recession-caused
unemployment, including the widely supported Humphrey-Hawkins Full Employment Act and
related bills. The Department of Labor, as well as many members of Congress and senators, favored
the expansion of public service employment (PSE) programs, which had put many people to work
during the Great Depression. These officials faced formidable opposition by Alan Greenspan and
the CEA, who viewed PSE jobs as lowering national productivity and depressing economic growth,
and ultimately resulting in increased budget deficits, Treasury borrowing, and inflation.
On the other hand, President Ford as well as nearly everyone in the White House, Executive
Branch, and Congress, favored an extension of unemployment benefits beyond twenty-six weeks, to
thirty-nine or even fifty-two weeks. Important collection papers document the apparent consensus
that the various anti-inflation measures should not have the effect of causing further distress to
unemployed persons and their households.
Energy
Those who recall sitting in long lines to buy a few gallons of gasoline at skyrocketing prices, the
result of the OPEC embargo on oil shipments in 1973, remember the seriousness with which the
energy crisis was viewed by nearly everyone in U.S. society. When the Ford administration began in
August 1974, the president and White House officials began intensive deliberations on a new national
policy for energy. It was given the name Project Independence.
Project Independence began in March 1974 as an initiative designed to assess both the
magnitude and dimensions of the nation’s energy problems and develop a framework of related
initiatives that would achieve the goal of national energy independence by 1985. The result of a
substantial federal interagency effort spearheaded by the Federal Energy Administration, it
constituted the most comprehensive energy initiative ever undertaken by the government. The
project had several major thrusts, with the most important being a comprehensive national energy
conservation program, a major research effort to commercialize alternative energy sources, and the
decontrol of oil and gas prices, with the predicted consequence of increased exploration and drilling.
In addition, the administration considered a windfall profits tax on oil and gas producers, energy tax
rebates to consumers, and fuel allocation programs, including standby gasoline rationing plans. Other
important initiatives in the Ford energy program included oil production from the national petroleum
reserves, an expansion of oil and gas leasing on the Outer Continental Shelf, loosening of
environmental standards to allow the greater use of coal in power plants, accelerated licensing of
nuclear power plants, reforms to rate-making regulations to encourage the expansion of electric
power, and federal subsidies to electric utilities for coal- and nuclear-powered power plant
construction.
Other Economic Issues
One of the most striking characteristics of the Ford years is the set of parallels between this
period and the present time. Both eras featured skyrocketing gas prices and other energy costs, a
growing emphasis on energy conservation and the development of alternative energy sources, a
general debate over national health insurance, scarcity of credit, a crisis in housing finance, and an
economy apparently nosediving into recession. Readers of documents in this collection will find
vi
some striking similarities between the Ford and Bush administrations in the economic policies
proposed in the White House and the Congress.
Greenspan’s Monthly Correspondence
The beginning reels of this collection contain monthly reports from Alan Greenspan to the
White House concerning a myriad of economic conditions and data. For researchers, these reports
provide a wealth of information and unbelievable insight into U.S. and global economic conditions.
The folders containing this correspondence are organized by month and contain information and
statistics on unemployment rates, labor supply, the Consumer and Wholesale Price Index, and the
impact of the financial situation on the Gross Domestic Product.
In spite of the generally serious and statistical nature of economic data, the Greenspan
correspondence files also contain a few lighthearted notes from citizens and politicians. On Frame
0301 of Reel 27, a staff member from Senator Edward W. Brooke’s office writes Greenspan to
encourage an interview with Penthouse magazine, while on Frame 0306 of the same reel a housewife
suggests that Greenspan, an avid follower of Ayn Rand, deliver to each member of Congress a copy
of Atlas Shrugged because “if they saw how they looked in print they would stop some of their
nonsense.”

W
hen Gerald R. Ford assumed the office of president of the United
States, following the resignation of Richard M. Nixon in August
1974, he faced a domestic situation characterized by great
economic as well as political uncertainty. The country was beginning its
slide into a steep recession, caused in part by the embargo on petroleum
shipments to the United States implemented by the Organization of
Petroleum Exporting Countries, as well as by the resulting dramatic increase
in oil prices. The result was a marked slowing of economic growth along
with dramatic increases in the rates of inflation and unemployment.
U.S. Council of Economic Advisers during the Ford Administration,
Part 1: Alan Greenspan Files, Correspondence, 1974–1977 brings together
a large number of documents that illuminate the debates behind the
economic policy decisions of the Ford administration during the period
November 1973–December 1976. Although many officials in the White
House and the Executive Branch, as well as in the Congress, proposed a
variety of programs to combat the nation’s economic ills—most involving
substantial government spending—these advocates typically found
themselves confronting the most important Ford administration voice in the
battle against inflation and recession: Council of Economic Advisers
chairman Alan Greenspan. The chairman and his conservative allies
mounted powerful opposition to many new government programs and
spending, except those that they felt would advance the interests of free
markets and private business.
One of the most striking characteristics of the Ford years is the set of
parallels between this period and the present time. Both eras featured
skyrocketing gas prices and other energy costs, a growing emphasis on
energy conservation and the development of alternative energy sources, a
general debate over national health insurance, scarcity of credit, a crisis in
housing finance, and an economy apparently nosediving into recession.
Readers of documents in this collection will find some striking similarities
between the Ford and Bush administrations in the economic policies
proposed in the White House and the Congress. Researchers will also find a
wealth of opinion and analysis by Alan Greenspan in a period before he
became the extraordinarily powerful chairman of the Federal Reserve Board.
