Sažetak:Originally known as the Department of Laws and Legislation, it was established in December of 1919 as one of the five founding departments of the National Catholic Welfare Council (now the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops). The department name has been changed twice, in April 1926 it became the Legal Department, and in November 1966 it became the Office of the General Counsel, the name that it still bears. Records include general administration files, subject files regarding congressional matters, education, foreign/international relations, organizations, social security, states, taxation, and tenure of church property, and miscellaneous publications and proceedings. There are also some personal correspondence files for directors William F. Montavon, Eugene Butler, and William Consedine.
