Series consists of agenda and minutes of meeting for the Commission. In this case, the agendas consist of schedules presenting the facts of the case. The minutes provide little detail of individual claims, and indicate only the decision making of the commissioners in adjudicating the claim. The detailed information regarding the claim was contained on a CMHQ file, (file block 35/) and each case is annotated with the appropriate claim file number. (The surviving records of this file block are found in RG 24, Series C-2, Vols. 10213-10219).
