Historical note

The Control Agency, founded in 1936, was an association of hog cholera anti-serum, virus, and vaccine producers and distributors. The Agency's primary functions were to assure that reserve supplies of serum and vaccine where available to combat outbreaks of hog cholera and to regulate marketing practices. L. J. Gardner was the permanent Executive Secretary. The Agency also sponsored hearings to present the industry's proposals for amendments and additions related to its establishment. The Agency was terminated in 1966 due to the success of the eradication program.

 

Collection description

The collection (1936-1959) contains photocopies of court hearing transcripts and exhibits concerning the Control Agency. The topics discussed include marketing agreements, handling regulations, and proposed amendments as well as various exhibits. This material was donated by the Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service of the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA).
