Dates: 1937-1955
Washington correspondent, Time, Inc., c. 1940-1950.
The papers of Frank McNaughton mostly consist of reports by McNaughton on Congressional affairs and national politics. These reports served as the basis for articles in Time magazine. McNaughton's reports deal with the political controversies and legislative struggles of the last four years of Franklin D. Roosevelt's administration and the first four years of the administration of Harry S. Truman. The collection also includes reports by other Time correspondents from the same period, reports on the 1952 election, and drafts of two biographies of Truman that McNaughton wrote with Walter Hehmeyer.

The papers of Frank McNaughton consist for the most part of reports on Congressional affairs and national politics, written by McNaughton in his capacity as a Washington correspondent for Time, Inc. during the 1940s. These reports provided the raw information that was used for articles in Time or perhaps occasionally in Life, the two principal magazines in the publishing empire of Henry R. Luce. The collection also contains similar reports submitted by other Time correspondents during this period, reports on the 1952 election campaign, and drafts of two biographies of President Harry S. Truman that McNaughton wrote with Walter Hehmeyer.
McNaughton's papers are comprised of three series, a McNaughton Reports File, an Individual Reports File, and a Miscellaneous File. The McNaughton Reports File makes up more than two-thirds of the collection and covers the period from 1941 to 1949. Included in this series are rough drafts of reports by McNaughton on Congress, the Washington scene, national politics, and foreign affairs. It appears that these reports provided basic information that was used in Time magazine. However, the reports contain profanity and frank statements that would not have appeared in the published articles. The words "not for attribution" are frequently attached to statements made by McNaughton's sources, many of whom were prominent members of Congress. McNaughton's colorful writing style is apparent in his descriptions: "rough-and-tumble, cigar-chewing, bellicose Thurman W. Arnold" and "red-baiting, wire-haired racist John E. Rankin." The reports contain profiles of Congressional leaders and other notables who were featured on the cover of Time, as well as the views of Congressmen on legislation, appointments, and political issues. The reports are typed, with many handwritten corrections and additions.
As might be expected, World War II is the predominant subject of the reports submitted by McNaughton between 1941 and 1945. In addition to events overseas and Congressional reaction, the reports deal with the political and economic repercussions of the war on the American home front: the debate over neutrality and concerns about inflation, taxes, government regulation, and waste in the national defense program. In this context, McNaughton sometimes refers to "fox-faced little Harry S. Truman of Missouri," who rose to national prominence during the war as chairman of a Senate committee investigating defense spending. In two of McNaughton's most interesting reports, he describes in detail President Roosevelt's dramatic appearances before Congress on December 8, 1941 (to call for a declaration of war against Japan) and March 1, 1945 (to report on the Yalta Conference, in his last major address.)
McNaughton also offers political analysis of the 1944 and 1948 presidential elections and important Congressional campaigns. During the postwar period, his reports focus on such issues as demobilization, the Pearl Harbor investigation, the fight in Congress for a permanent Fair Employment Practice Committee, President Truman's various problems, and Congressional investigations of alleged Communist subversion.
The reports reflect McNaughton's own opinions on many issues. Although Time's publisher, Henry Luce, was a Republican, McNaughton is clearly sympathetic toward some of the policies of the Roosevelt and Truman administrations. He is highly critical of Roosevelt's isolationist opponents in Congress, who resisted U.S. preparedness and assistance to Great Britain during the early stages of the war. He also exhibits skepticism toward anti-Communist "witch-hunts"-although he seems to show more respect for the charges made by Whittaker Chambers, a senior editor at Time who in 1948 accused Alger Hiss, formerly a high-ranking State Department official, of having been a Communist. McNaughton's reports are arranged in chronological order. An index to the reports in this series is included as an appendix to this finding aid.
The second series, the Individual Reports File, contains reports submitted by over sixty other correspondents for Time, Inc., covering the period from 1937 to 1947. In content, these reports are similar to those filed by McNaughton, and mostly deal with events in Congress, famous personalities, and national politics. For example, one report by Jim Shepley provides information for a Time cover article on General George S. Patton, Jr.; another by Ed Lockett contains an interesting analysis of likely personnel changes in the Cabinet and on the White House staff with the death of President Roosevelt and the beginning of the Truman administration. The few female correspondents for Time in Washington were apparently assigned to cover Mrs. Truman and Margaret. Thus, it was Jane Wilson who was responsible for submitting an amusing report on the First Lady's failed attempt to christen two new military hospital planes in May 1945.
The third series, the Miscellaneous File, includes drafts and research notes compiled during the writing of This Man Truman (1945) and Harry Truman-President (1948), two biographies of President Truman that were co-authored by McNaughton and Walter Hehmeyer. Also included are reports, submitted by Time and Life correspondents, on the final days of the 1952 election campaign, which feature descriptions of Truman's last "whistlestop" tour in support of Democratic nominee Adlai Stevenson. There are also reports on Dwight Eisenhower's campaign, accounts of Congressional and state contests, and a prediction by one journalist, on the day before the election, that Stevenson would win a narrow victory. Reports on Election Day provide evidence of Eisenhower's landslide; in the days after, the correspondents analyze the results and make educated guesses about the new President's Cabinet appointees. The Miscellaneous File also contains drafts of various articles or book chapters written by McNaughton, mostly dealing with Congressional affairs, along with handwritten notes, a list of personnel in Time, Inc.'s Washington bureau, and other items.
The Truman Library also has a separate collection of the papers of Frank McNaughton and Walter Hehmeyer, consisting of drafts of This Man Truman. Also relevant is the Library's oral history interview with Walter Hehmeyer. More information on press coverage of the Truman administration can be found in the papers of Charles G. Ross and Eben A. Ayers, and in the oral history interview with Robert G. Nixon.
