This folder contains material pertaining to the Consumer Advisory Council (CAC), which was formally established by the Council of Economic Advisers (CEA) in July 1962 in order to ensure that the government considered the needs of consumers. Types of material include correspondence, memoranda, press releases, news articles, speeches, and resolutions. A portion of the information relates to the transfer of CAC responsibilities from the CEA to the Special Assistant for Consumer Affairs in 1964, but the bulk of the file actually covers the organization and administration of the CAC in general.
