a third archive would be be gru archives, military intelligence archives, no one that i know of has access to that. the fourth archive would be the presidential archive, which has the public records. in there, you would find what was going to stalin, how he judged it, and other important leaders, particularly an official who, from august 1945 until august 1949, was overseeing the effort to build a soviet nuclear weapon. he had been head of the secret police in earlier years, and gained notoriety there. but, his role in the immediate aftermath of the second world war was to oversee the soviet union's bomb program. everything coming in from espionage went to him. how do we know that, given that the archives are inaccessible? there are three collections that are extremely important. one of these -- two of these have been mentioned. this decrypted soviet foreign intelligence documents that were released in 1995 and 1996 by the cia and the nsa. those were decrypted by analysts in what is now the national security agency. second, the vyacheslav archives. vyacheslav himself was a foreign intellig

erik: one of the main places was in london at the archives.lso significant pieces at churchill college and the churchill archives at cambridge. but one of the main troves was the archives of the united kingdom. i came across a large collection of british naval intelligence reports which were compilations and narratives based on interrogations of captured submariners, captured german submarine crews, in which the british naval intelligence analysts or whoever is doing the questioning asked them about their patrols, about how submarines worked, about what the tactics were, but also after them about what other commanders were like, what other crews were like. this was fascinating to me because it showed that there was no one type of german submarine commander. there was a very interesting span from absolutely ruthless to very humane and kind of lazy. one guy was notorious for being a lousy shot. he eventually got transferred out. but there is also a lot of comment about schweiger in those things. there were a lot of other -- there was a ledger ac

and two years later only 40,000 were archived for public records. is this a cause to arms call to arms for the state department to fix this problem? >> two points here. one it is understandable why this is a bit confusing. smart is one of many tools. it's only one tool used to archive and keep record of our state department records. employees can print their records. there's range of tools they can use. it's traditionally used by overseas posts. we have also taken a number of steps to upgrade what we do here. now and today secretary kerry's e-mails are automatically archived. dozens of state department employees are archived. this is an evolving process. one we're continuing to strive to do better on. we'll have a better electronic system in place. >> 2009 upgrade and the manual indicated that people should no longer be printing and filing. they should be computerizing these records. do you automatically archive your records or is the system too hard to use? >> it's about what the technology allows for. right now there are processes that are under w

uncountable as it is for some people, and the british archives it's in the papers. literally on the eve of the u.s. presidential election in november 1944, churchill had proposed the next big three meeting be in jerusalem, not in tehran where it is plain to partition palestine would've been discussed and then two days after the u.s. presidential election is when the stern gang shot to death lord moyne churchill's oldest friend and member of the british cabinet. and churchill never really, his support for zionism remain but the partition plan, it would have been difficult to get through british parliament but nonetheless he turned his back on the partition plan and it was a lost opportunity. finally, husseini the jerusalem, he styled himself the grand, that was his title to interesting individual from one of the most prominent palestinian arab families. yassir arafat is one of his descendents. studied at the prestigious seat of learning in cairo. a student their organize clubs and demonstrations against jewish immigration to palestine. he was one of the architects of

and it turns out now that it's the only tropical archive of ice cores on earth.arrator: these cores are crucial links in the history of climate, connecting the polar regions to the tropics. by analyzing this archive and comparing it to other climate records a global understanding of past climate is emerging. woman: what we want to do is get it back to the lab and start working on it as quickly as possible because everybody's really curious to see what kind of information it has. as a matter of fact, as we're drilling this we're often talking about what information this record might hold and how it might fit in with all the other records. it's another piece of a global puzzle and we feel that every one of these pieces is critical. narrator: in the lab, lonnie's team analyzes the ice cores. oxygen isotope ratios provide a proxy for the temperature when the ice was formed. these records are consistent with other studies that reveal going back 1,000 years a long-term warming trend, beginning about 150 years ago -- the dawn of the industge. carbon dioxide measurements

. >> there's also no archiving requirement in maryland on e-mails deleted archive a ton of states that operational menus for all of you to peruse for eight years. >> i understand there's a press question in the back. >> i am annie from the "boston globe." i have a question related to the chairs question. you believe under the auspices of good government that an initial -- an official should use a personal e-mail or account for duties? >> i am not an expert on federal requirements for state requirements. frankly i'm a little sick of the e-mail drama but in our state whether you used a personal e-mail or a public e-mail or a carrier pigeon it was all at public record subject of disclosure and response to foia. you are not going to ask me about e-mails are you? >> the message he brought here today governor comes to something you want to share with a national audience as a presidential candidate? >> i'm seriously considering running in 2016 and i believe that if we want to continue to heal our economy and heal our democracy we are going to have to make our government work and we are going

is she going to have a third party archive some of it? is she going to hand it all over to the national archives? these are questions that all remain to be answered. how she handles it will tell us a lot about what the new hillary clinton is going to look like as a candidate in 2016. >> a lot of republicans have been of two minds when it comes to how to deal with this controversy. some republicans saying this is something we need to be aggressive about, we need to be talking about how this is the same old clinton problem. they think the rules apply to everyone except for themselves. other republicans saying you know what don't overplay your hand this is the trap the republicans fall into all the time. sit back let the clintons do this to themselves. what are you hearing from the republican consultants, the people working on the soon-to-be presidential campaigns about how to deal with this? >> that's the sort of general conundrum republicans face. both the institutional party and research groups they're trying not to veer too much into, yo

one of the offenses here is one of the rules, archiving of emails was enacted after she left office. there has been rules about record keeping that applied for a long time. most who watch the government know about it. they have been pouring over the particulars and is dotted and ts crossed. it's an issue not unique to hillary clinton, there are plenty of other officials in conversations with fellow journalists who say i have seen private emails used. i was a reporter for the dallas morning news 10 years ago and we had to sue the mayor of dallas to get emails that we were accessing about city business. this is nothing new, but what is knew is that this is the secretary of state. and a woman who, in her prior campaign emphasised her experience and judgment and is that judgment in question now given that private emails are likely more vulnerable to hacking? >> it certainly is in question by republicans and democrats. >> hillary clinton democrats are putting all the eggs of course in the hilary basket. there's no challenge to surface at this point. the former governor of maryland and may

to contribute to iraq's jewish archives.also wants iraqis to see the documents to help them realize that every group has had its share of suffering. it's a expected to be finished next year. >> we have a very important unifying effect because they play a role in the formation of the identity. they are not sectarians. we need [ inaudible ] institutions throughout iraq. they will help remedy the wounds of the past. >> reporter: more than 1,000 years ago, baghdad was a center of knowledge. home to the word's greatest libraries, and the greatest poets. those ancient libraries were also destroyed, but their legacy has survived. >>> european ministers meeting in brussels have decided to keep sanctions in place against russia until the engineer of the year. the sanctions are punishments for russia's role in the eastern ukraine conflict. the ruble has lost nearly half of its value since last year. russia is expected to record its first recession since 2009. russia's neighbors are also feeling the pinch from a knock-on effect to thei

also come in the state archives have all of the trial record all the information as well. the state house has a lot of material. bridgwater later on. state reform schools nowadays is called the lie land school for boys. change its name. and in boston to bpl. they have thousands of articles about him. at the time boston hide 250 newspapers and magazines and it was a good time to be a journalist that then. you can find thousands of articles. took me about three years to collect everything. >> after the fire that destroyed the city do you go into that anymore or is it really the backdrop of jesse story? >> it is mostly the backdrop. by the time the fire happened in 1872. people tend to know a little bit more about the fire that happened in chicago in 187110 to be the most famous kind of countrywide fire. the boston fire is not well known. the person dealing not with the cheese in the city. when the fire took place in sort of parallel in chelsea. they have been pretty much destroyed from the downtown area all the way down to the waterfront. the city was busy trying to rebuild.

and particularly this moment where we have access to archives visual archives audio archives that's unprecedented in terms of what kind of access we have. we can literally do black history month every day, more than 28 days, why simply decide to roll out the marketing plan. on january 15th instead of thinking about rolling out the marketing plan for the whole year, and i think part of it has to do with the fact there are folks folks that don't want americans to know their history. because if they know american history, and that's even not even inclusive of the black experience with that, folks can connect dots and realize that some of the things that they are experiencing, it is not unprecedented. that it might be more systematic, in fact. >> does maintaining the idea of black history month give educators in particular a reason not to integrate into the curriculum as american history? i think that's always a concern. we will have these places that think well, if we have to do it, right, we'll just take these 28 months and we'll do the kind of stand rhetorical stuff about why black folks are impor

it is likely that the national archives is the right place to do that. they already have some level of that authority. but the mandates need to be much clearer. what is to stop you from doing this again? it is not clear there is anything. so i think clear laws and oversight and investigative authority. host: diana, a democratic caller. caller: yes, i would like to make a comment. i believe that you guys are doing this just to put something out there so that you can bring up benghazi again to her. i believe that these laws are already in place, they were in place just after she left office. i don't see why you need to make her a spectacle. if you want to do, than half -- have congress work on it. that is what the job is. to make laws. you don't need to have a person like her as an example. host: ok, diana. so it is political. guest: well, i think the caller is certainly right that this is going to be viewed with presidential politics. there are many evils stories -- e-mail stories, but because it is hillary clinton, we'll have that amount of attention on

we now know other agencies didn't archive at all. so on one hand i think it's good she wants to release 55,000 pages. in fact she's called for the state department to do that. that's good. the bad side is she doesn't want anyone to look at the server. i think that's going to raise up all sorts of questions and suspicions. what i would suggest she do is an independent auditor come in just to review the server make sure no foreign government hacked it make sure all the data was properly transferred. someone like luis freeh, former director of the fbi, somebody independent to come in. >> you use the word spriggses that's what conservative media is so effective at and what you used to do, raise suspicions even if they aren't fair. >> brian, why are you blaming conservative media about this. i read "new york times,"time magazine had a negative story. >> the clinton way, they write their own rules. will it work this time. "new york times" is the outlet that wrote this story a couple of weeks ago but i wonder if sometimes conservative media

they do with the national archives and records. it's their policy to implement and their policy to evaluate whether or not or how individuals should comply with those guidelines and again, this is what prompted the request from the state department to previously serving secretaries of state to forward onto them records that may have been kept in their personal e-mail account. >> not trying to be cute here but lots of people work for this administration. i know there's a new law, but can you venture a conclusion or will you offer a conclusion as to whether or not the secretary broke the law, skirted the law or complied with the law? >> based on what we know so far, again, major, the guidelines that are laid out under the federal records act require that records maintained that pertain to official government business that do reside in personal e-mail account should be turned over to agency officials so the records can be maintained and preserved. >> can you make a judgment as to whether you believe she's complied with the guidance? >

the times quotes a former director at the national archives and records administration as calling her personal e-mail use unusual. saying it should only have been used in an emergency. clinton did recently turn over thousands of e-mails from her private account but only after aides reviewed them and picked which ones to turn over. >> what an amazing crowd. >> reporter: clinton is widely considered the front runner for next year's democratic presidential nomination. in a tweet jeb bush a likely 2016 republican contender called for her unclassified e- mails to be released. a clinton aide maintains the former secretary complied with the quote letter and spirit of the rules. the state department says current secretary john kerry is the first person in the position to rely primarily on a standard government e-mail account. don champion for cbs news, new york. >> and the state department also says the agency is updating records and policies right now to bring them in line with the national archives. the task includes regularly archiving rather all e-mails current secretary of state john ker

as uncomfortable as uncomfortable as it is for some people it is in the british archives. literally on the eve of the us presidential election november 1944 1944 churchill proposed the next big three meeting be in jerusalem, not tehran where his plan would have been discussed. two days after the presidential election is when the gang shot lord morning, churchill's friend and member of the british cabinet. churchill supports zionism but the partition plan it would have been difficult to get through british parliament. i believe it was a lost opportunity. very interesting individual. studied at a prestigious seat of learning in cairo. organized clubs and demonstrations against jewish immigration to palestine. one of the actors in the 1920 1920 riot against jews and was sentenced to prison and pardoned. well-meaning but the british thought by giving him a senior office that this would moderate his views. it did not moderate his views. in fact by the end of the 1920s it achieved this very close fusion of religious nationals which transformed the situation in palestine precipit

. >> there is also no archiving requirement in maryland. we archived a ton of statestat operational memos for all of you to peruse. >> i have a question related to the former question, do you agree that an official should use a personal e-mail account for official duties? martin j. o'malley: i am not an expert on federal or state requirements, frankly i am a little sick of the e-mail drama. in our state, whether you use personal or public e-mail or carrier pigeon, it was a public record subject. you're not going to ask about e-mails, are you? [laughter] >> the message you brought -- is this something you want to share with the national audience as a presidential candidate? martin j. o'malley: i am seriously considering running. if we want to continue healing our economy and congress, we will have to make our government work and do a better job of making our government perform for the dollars people pay. i think those three things link together. there is not a doubt in my mind that this is the new way of governing and getting things done. yo

books are welcome to the maine state archives. the crown jewel of the archive collection is housed in about this area. they represent as broad a holding of civil war records of any state, north or south. we have hundreds of thousands of documents here at the main state archives relating to the civil war. it's not the volume of the documents so much that is of importance to the nation, is the breath of what the information contained in those documents represents. it's across the spectrum of our society. their military documents, but the administration of the war rested with the northern governors in particular, and the union effort. and all of the information, all of the questions, all of the decisions they came in from maine at the time the civil war were made by the governor and in general, they kept the records pertaining to those decisions. in part because maine, then as now, was very short on money. before these public servants could spend a dime, they wanted to know they could account for it. not just today, but tomorrow and

that is different than the federal records archiving of records of employees. there is a presidential record in place that has different requirements for the handling of records. all the e-mails of the president sends are governed by that act, and are properly maintained in accordance with the presidential records act. reporter: on ukraine, what is the announcement about nonlethal aid to ukraine? sec. earnest: let's do the first part, first. there was an announcement from the administration today that an additional $75 million in military assistance would be provided to the ukrainian military by the united states. this is a continuation of military assistance that has already been provided by the united states, someone hundred $20 million in assistance has already been a prided -- been provided to the ukrainian military. assistance includes a wide variety of things, including radios and secured communications agreement. include some unmanned aerial vehicles that can assist in the defense of protection of ukrainian forces and will significantly enhance their com

thanks for inviting me to come to the national archives. it's such a pleasure being in a beautiful city with such a rich history. thank you all so much for coming. i really appreciate it and i'm very eager to hear your questions and comments. let me begin with the inspiration behind this project. this project was inspired by a story that my aunt told me about a distant cousin who grew up on the south side of chicago in the 1930s. the story begins with a parade that continues to this day. on a sizzling summer morning in august my cousin let from her bag to find the best spots to view the parade. she joined a crowd that numbered in the thousands and she cheered as drum natures baton for rollers and celebrities passed by. she ran out to the appointed king and queen and a cough that can be the participants tossed to her. the parade was a south side institution and in a time when racial tensions ran high and they squeezed into overcrowded kitchenettes into children do not to venture beyond the boundaries of their neighborhood the parade either a

i am in the british national archives and i'm trying not to do the dance of joy. [laughter] that is how i began to piece together what happened at this meeting. when the british are saying, this is awful, what you see on the state department's side -- because there was a quick vacation within state about the u.s. alliance within south africa. on the one hand, you get the this is a valued ally that has a wonderful strategic minerals that we need and is staunchly anti-communist. then you have those going, their policies are absolutely odious. they are utter nonsense. harder for you begin to see happening here is the naacp working to shift and change the narrative of what south africa is. how you begin to turn a valued ally of the west into an political ball and chain. after this meeting the naacp has provided funding for the tribes to come to the u.n. meeting to testify. this is the kind of support coming in from the naacp. the south african government refuses to issue passports to allow the african leadership to leave. reverend michael scott is then invited up to t

her political viability, someone every day should forward the mail from her personal account and archive it carefully. that is not what was done. it was at best a haphazard effort to preserve the record. >> there has never been any doubt in anybody's mind that she was likely run for president and win. if she were trying to be cautious and careful, you're absolutely right, that is what you would have done. that is not what they did. we just found out that there were donations to the foundation from foreign governments. >> people telling you the press is mean, the republicans are attacking you, if she is smart and wants to be president, she is saying to her people, someone have the courage to tell me i messed this up and it will never happen again. >> to republicans, the hillary e-mail story is like new year's eve. a little unbelievable and you never want it to end. jeb bush milked by tweeting this. "transparency matters, unclassified hillary clinton e-mail should be released." then he posted a link to his own released e-mails. what is the subtext of his text? >> his family and the clinton

the top lawyer of the archives administration quoted by "the new york times" and he said on cnn lastaturday he did -- she did nothing illegal. >> it is not convenient to go and get an i.t. department to build a server at your home where you can establish a parallel in operation. the government has the e-mail operation that is there in that is secure. the convenient thing would be the state department. she built a separate thing for i am not sure what reason. she has turned over 55,000 pages but not all of them. why should she be in the position of determining which she should retain when she currently has all control and no one has any idea. why should she be the one to make that determination? >> you said a few things i would like to take issue with. why should she be the only one? like anybody else whether it is: powell or any other secretary of state they will be asked what was private, was official. the state department system in their own private system. everyone is in the same boat. as to whether or not she will be second-guessed 90% she said when to state department people. ev

and has doubled the archives collection of official documents.as sedan hussein collection and what was the huge jewish community. the staff started cataloging documents signed by iraqi jews in the 1950s just before they were deported. >> this is a witness from the jewish community. >> reporter: it's part of an agreement with the u.s. to contribute to iraq's jewish archives now held in the united states. but they want iraqis to see the documents to help realize every group had a share of suffering and expected to be finished next year. >> the library has a very important unifying effect because they play a role in the formation of the national identity and not sectarians and don't have damage and we need these institutions throughout iraq they will help remedy the past. >> reporter: more than 1,000 years ago baghdad was the center of knowledge. home to the world's great libraries and the arab world's greatest poets and the and shen libraries were also destroyed but their legacy has survived. jane with al jazeera, baghdad. >>> hundreds of millions

you were able to forward e-mails on but back in 2009 the national archives did issue a regulates that essentially said, you have to take yu e-mail you used from your g mail or private accounts and send them on. that was while clinton was secretary of state. actual act that was passed last year, clinton was out of office and working towards presume bring her second presidential bid. >> one of these things is a regulation that the archives wanted and then the state department had some rules and then it became an actual law. the stuff we're dealing with hillary clinton doesn't contravene a law right now seemingly? >> it doesn't. but congressional inquiries and attorneys i've spoken to, legal experts will say if you have private e-mails that will absolve you or keep you out of the purview of those investigations. obviously these things can be drawn in later but the freedom of information act won't necessarily draw from a private e-mail. if you are not moving that from a public record to your private account, there's no rming control overrole overwhat you sent when. >> thank you, can you h

huh behas doubled the archive's election of official documents.ibrary houses saadam hussein's extensive book collection. as well as the collection from the toppled monarchy. and books from the huge jush wish community. they have started scanning documents signed by the jews in the 1950s, just before they were deported. it's part of an agreement with the u.s. to contribute to iraq jews. but he wants iraqis to see them as well. >> they have a very important unifying effect because they are the formation of an identity. there are not sectarians. they have had ethnic damage. they will help remedy the wounds of the past. >> reporter: more than 1,000 years ago, baghdad was the center of knowledge. home to the world's great libraries, and the arab world's greatest poets. those an inchenth -- ancient libraries were also destroyed, but their legacy has survived. >>> an express train has derailed in an northern india district. an engine and two coaches left the tracks after the brakes failed. >>> it's reported that niger and chad armies have found the bodie

there is some indication that if she e-mails someone outside the government, she made an effort to archivehat. but it is not comprehensive. that is one of the most serious things about it. and the last big thing that she did not address was, what was her plan for turning these things over before the state department asked? john: and she assumed the server was secure because it was the same one her husband use. she asserts there was never a security breach. i don't know that is true, or that she would even know whether it was true. and always the most important question in my mind is, what is it that gave her the sense of justification that she would be the ultimate arbiter over what was work related and what was not? mark: on the merits, that is up to every individual employee when they leave the government. again, she should have done it in a timely fashion, but you go through your records and you decide what is government property. john: but if you are hillary clinton and you know you have a reputation for secrecy -- mark: she herself admitted that she should have done at the other way f

placed on the individual, whether that's the secretary of state or others leaving a department to archive or print out or account for their e-mails and/or their documents that they show their work while they were here at the state department. every secretary of state has a checkout process. i don't think it's the same. i don't think anyone would think it's the same as what a typical individual does. i wasn't here at the time, megyn, so i can't speak to what specific steps she took when she parted the department. >> do you know whether there was any effort made by the state department to ensure that the people's documents, which you know are the ones she created and received that dealt with official business, were preserved, where they were and who was the caretaker of them? >> well, there's a standard process where it's up to an individual to account for and archive their documents. there are different ways to do that. >> did anybody at state try to assure themselves that they and she were complying with the federal records laws? >> well megyn, i started here in february of 2013. i wasn't

. >> roy's boys believed that somewhere in the massive archives, there must be a recording of a song their dad singing around the house, a family favorite called "the way is love." >> it's a song that wasn't meant to be released. he just sang it under his breath. that was something coming out of him. >> alex decides this would be the perfect song to include. only one problem, he can't find the tape anywhere. and what amounts to 30 years worth of material. >> there was a large pile of stuff that wasn't cataloged. >> you said i have to dig in? >> i said look, whatever you're doing, we're going to get into that vault and find this tape. >> did you have to listen to thousands of things? >> i've been in archives looking for everything for hours, and out of the entire thing, i leaned my hand up against the wall and i looked and i said look at this. >> after weeks of searching, the original cassette tape for "the way is love" is sitting right in front of him. filled with excitement, alex calls family friend john carter cash, son of the late johnny cash. >> he said hey, listen, i eave got th

also the state archives have all the trial records have all the information as well. the state house has a lot of material. bridgewater where he went later on. the state reform school nowadays is called the lyman state school for boys and the boston bpl. they have thousands of articles written about him. at the time boston had probably 250 newspapers and magazines. it was really good time to be a journalist back then if you will. so you can find thousands of articles. it took me about three years to collect everything. >> the fire that destroyed the city, do you go into that anymore or is it the backdrop of jesse story? >> it is mostly the backdrop. by the time the fire happened in 1872 i don't know how much people knew about it. people tend to know more about the fire that happened in chicago in 1871. it tends to be the most famous countrywide fire but the boston fire is not well-known. the person i was dealing with that was the chief the fire chief here in the city. at the time when the fire took place is sort of parallels the crimes that were happening in chelsea.

if you look at the information the soviet archives, the fbi files all show there was in fact a massive communist penetration of the american government at that time. hundreds and hundreds and hundreds of people in our government, some in very high positions who started getting into the government and the lakers of the depression and more so in world war ii when the soviet union was our ally and nobody was paying any attention. nobody really cared. after the war was over, things changed radically and the soviet union became our enemy. beginning in the late months of 1945 and a little bit before that. all of a sudden this communist fellow travelers that nobody was paying any attention to before became a major issue. at this time the fbi, i won't worry what the details was tracking all this in great detail and sent hundreds of report to the white house the attorney general state department, treasury department, seen here at these cases in these government jobs and something needs to be done about them. one of them was alger hiss they were all these fbi files also. virtually nothing went i

information not just on the emails but how they were handled, how they were archived or not archives. over 30,000 of them were deleted why is that is significant. trey gowdy going to call former secretary clinton up to capitol hill to testify under oath that's focused on the benghazi situation, what happened in libya, what did she know? we know there is several hundred emails that have not been turned over before. is there anything new there? but i think what was significant about what's jen psaki was saying there for the second straight day she would not answer a direct yes or no question. did secretary clinton on the way out the door a couple of years ago sign this statement that all state department employees are are supposed to sign and you the penalty of perjury that you are all your records with the department before you leave? she acknowledged in a news conference a few days ago that she hung on to those emails for at least two years leaving office before turning them over a couple of months ago. that would seem to run afoul of that document if she signed it jen sock can i won'
