This is part of a series of Guides prepared by the American Historical Association listing records microfilmed at Alexandria, Va.,
by the American Historical Association Microfilming Project*
An American Committee for the Study of War Documents was established in 1955 as a private group of scholars, interested in documentary research and especially in the microfilming of records of foreign origin kept in American depositories* In 195&, the American
Committee became a committee of the American Historical Association* Its present Chairman (I960) is Professor Oron J* Hale, University
of Virginia, who was preceded by Dean Reginald H* Phelps, Harvard University, and Professor Lynn M* Case of the University of Pennsylvania* An initial Ford Foundation grant and additional funds provided by the Old Dominion Foundation, Lilly Endowment, and Avalon Foundation
enabled the Committee to undertake the cataloguing and microfilming of declassified German records in the custody of the World War II Records
Division of the National Archives (previously TAGO, Departmental Records Branch) at Alexandria, Virginia*
The plans for screening and microfilming of these materials were prepared by a Subcommittee on Microfilming under the Chairmanship to the end of 1956 of Professor E. Malcolm Carroll, Duke University, and his successor, Dr. Fritz T. Epstein, the Library of Congress*
She microfilming team at Alexandria was under the direction of Professor Oerhard L. Weinberg of the University of Michigan in 1956/57, of
Dr. Dagmar Horna Perman from 1957 to September 1959> of Mr, James &. McDowell from September 1959 to August 19^0, and is now under the
supervision of Dr. Willard Allen Fletcher of the University of Colorado.
The American Historical Association expresses its appreciation for the cooperation given to its Committee for the Study of War
Documents by the staffs of the Rational Archives, especially its World War II Records.Division, as well as the U.S. Department of the Army.

This Guide is one of a series of finding aids describing those declassified seized German records deposited at the World War II Records
Division, National Archives, that have been microfilmed by the Microfilming Project of the Committee for the Study of War Documents of the
American Historical Association* The Guide contains the text of data sheets identifying records filmed. A copy of the data sheets has been
filmed as a target sheet at the beginning of each roll of film.
This Guide describes 307 rolls of film which, together with the 67 rolls described in Guide 16, comprise the filmed selection of records of the Deutsches Ausland-Institut, Stuttgart* This organization came into being in 1917* for the purpose of promoting German trade abroad,
regaining lost markets, and counteracting the effect of anti-German war propaganda* During the Weimar era the Institute devoted itself largely
to the encouragement of research on problems related to German emigration, and also sought to aid potential emigrants with advice and help*
The Gleichschaltung after 1933 gave a new direction and purpose to the work of the DAI and made it an instrument of National Socialist policies
and propaganda* During the Second World War, the Institute performed many functions, including those of an information gathering agency, and
came to play a large part in the resettlement program carried on under the auspices of the Reichskommissar fttr die Festigung deutschen Vo Iks turns,
Heinrich Himmler, Reichsftthrer-SS and Chef der deutschen Polizei* The records cover essentially the years
The records of the Institute, consisting of correspondence, files, reports, memoranda as well as publications have relevance for the
study of German emigration, Nazi resettlement schemes in eastern Europe, the history of the ethnic minorities in central Europe, and allied
topics* They also contain a wealth of background materials, detailed reports and histories pertaining to German minorities in those areas*
Correspondence files provide a major source of information for the study of Nazi propaganda effects on German colonies in many parts of the
world* Of particular interest are the files of the Porschungsstelle Russlanddeutschtum, which shed light on the fate of the Volga German
colony, the vast impact of the collectivization of agriculture in Russia, and sundry other topics* The wide variety of the DAI records is
reflected in the existence of materials pertaining to the research activity of the Hauptabteilung fttr Sippenkunde und Volksforschung, to genealogical studies, to documentation on public opinion in German-held areas, to the administrative supervision of foreign labor in Germany, and
to numerous other matters*
References to the volume and location of other DAI records were initially given in: Gerhard L* Weinberg, Guide to Captured German
Documents* War Documentation Project Study No* 1* Maxwell Air Force Base, Alabama: Air University. Human Resources Research Institute, 1952*
The reader, therefore, should also consult the additional references in Gerhard L. Weinberg* Supplement to the Guide to Captured German
Documents* Washington,
D.C.: The National Archives, 1959* Finally, attention is directed to Guides 2 and 16 of the "List to Previously Published Guides.n
The abbreviations most commonly used in the descriptions are as follows: DAI - Deutsches Aus land- Ins ti tut; YOMI - Volksdeutsche Mittelstelle; E2 - Einwandererzentralstelle; VDA - Yolksbund fttr das Deutschtum im Ausland; AO - Auslandsorganisation of the NSDAP. Records in
this collection which were not filmed consist mainly of genealogical material, duplicates, and miscellaneous financial statements*

The terms "Serial" and 'ftoll" in this Guide refer to the secuence of film. The "Item" number is the identification symbol on the
original folder within the captured records collection* "Provenance" indicates, where ascertainable, the archival origin of the documents
whose description follows. The symbol "FT" means that the folder has been filmed throughout; the symbol "PS" denotes that the folder has
"been filmed selectively. "1st frame" gives the frame number of the first page of the folder. Every .'exposure has "been given a frame number
consecutively throughout the filming operation. The "Notes" provide a general idea of the nature of the materials but should not be taken
as exhaustive descriptions. Apart from a few minor rearrangements folders were filmed in numerical order. Although, on the whole, subjects tended to appear coherently and in numerical sequence, it is still necessary to check the whole Guide for any one subject.
The original records have been returned to the Federal Republic of Germany. The microfilms are deposited in the National Archives,
Washington 25, D.C., as microcopy T-81, rolls 331-&637» ^^ snoul<* ^e requested by adding "T-81" to the rolls desired.
