II. U. S. House of Representatives

B. Congressional Committees, 1951-1978, 87 lin. ft.

When Poage first went to Washington, he was assigned to four committees : Census, Immigration and Naturalization, War Claims and Claims. Two years later in addition to these four, he was added to Flood Control and the District committees. However, in 1941 when he was assigned to the House Committee on Agriculture, the assignment he had originally wanted, Poage did not serve on any other committees during his remaining 38 years in the House.

Unfortunately, there are no records remaining from these early committee assignments. The following files from twenty four committees reflect Poage's interest in keeping materials sent to him from other committees as they related to his service as a congressman outside the Agriculture Committee. There are generally from 1951 to 1978. Each committee's files are in chronological order.
