Institute on Church and State, 1948-1958

[1948-1949] 1951-1952, 1958. Correspondence with officers of the Institute on Church and State, Incorporated, on the preparation of a pamphlet on separation of church and state by Konvitz for the Institute. In a memo to Professors Kallen and Norton, and R. Lawrence Siegel, Konvitz explains that he treated only the question of broad principle in his pamphlet and that he intended it to strongly conflict with the positions of the Catholic Church (June 10, 1948). Siegel informs Konvitz that the Board of Directors of the Institute decided not to publish or distribute Konvitz's manuscript because its text and approach did not conform to their ideas (October 25, 1948).
