Particularly for the years of the Eisenhower administration, 1953–61, there are materials that concern the Soviet Union. For example, there are letters from President Dwight D. Eisenhower, Secretary of State Christian A. Herter, and Soviet Prime Minister Nikita S. Khrushchev to Rayburn about the proposed summit conferences of spring 1960.
