Summary

Col. Charles Klinge, commander, Fort Worth District, U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, tours the Old Baker Pump Station Sept. 21 in Dallas. Built in 1932, it was part of early Dallas efforts to reduce neighborhood flooding by pumping water from low-lying areas behind the levees into the main Trinity River channel. New Baker Pump Station, center, built in 1975, will soon be joined by Baker III Pump Station at this site. After Baker III is built by the city under a Corps of Engineers-issued Section 408 permit Old Baker will be retired and may be converted into a museum.

The objects in this collection are from The U.S. National Archives and Defense Visual Information Distribution Service. The U.S. National Archives and Records Administration (NARA) was established in 1934 by President Franklin Roosevelt. NARA keeps those Federal records that are judged to have continuing value—about 2 to 5 percent of those generated in any given year. There are approximately 10 billion pages of textual records; 12 million maps, charts, and architectural and engineering drawings; 25 million still photographs and graphics; 24 million aerial photographs; 300,000 reels of motion picture film; 400,000 video and sound recordings; and 133 terabytes of electronic data. The Defense Visual Information Distribution Service provides a connection between world media and the American military personnel serving at home and abroad. All of these materials are preserved because they are important to the workings of Government, have long-term research worth, or provide information of value to citizens.
