    REFORMATION: MONSIGNOR CHARLES OWEN RICE AND THE FRAGMENTATION OF THE NEW DEAL ELECTORAL COALITION IN PITTSBURGH, 1960-1972 Kennethj. Heineman Ohio University-Lancaster he tearing apart of the New Deal electoral coalition in the i96os has attracted growing scholarly and media attention. Gregory Schneider and Rebecca Klatch emphasized the role collegiate lib- ertarians played in moving youths to the Right. Rick Perlstein, focusing on conservatives who came of age during World War II, argued that the New Right wedded southern white racism to midwestern conspiracy-obsessed anti-Communism. For his part, Dan Carter contended that Alabama governor George Wallace's racist politics migrated north where they found a receptive audi- ence in urban Catholics.' Samuel Freedman chronicled the ideological evolution of sev- eral generations of northern Catholics as they moved into the GOP in reaction to black protest, mounting urban crime, and the Vietnam War. Ronald Formisano, Jonathan Rieder, and Thomas Sugrue, in their studies of Boston, New York, and Detroit, respectively, gave less attention to the Vietnam War, emphasizing the racial attitudes of working-class Catholics and unionists. In PENNSYLVANIA HISTORY: A JOURNAL OF MID-ATLANTIC STUDIES, VOL. 7 1, NO. I, 2004. Copyright © 2004 The Pennsylvania Historical Association PENNSYLVANIA HISTORY their surveys of the relationship between Catholics and blacks, John McGreevy and Gerald Gamm argued that urban Catholics frequently did not respond well to blacks. 2 Ronald Radosh and Steven Gillon took a different tack from Carter, Gamm, and Sugrue. In their studies of the Americans for Democratic Action (ADA), an organization that anti-Communist Democrats such as Minneapolis mayor Hubert Humphrey had helped create in I947, Radosh and Gillon examined the middle-class activists who rejected America's anti-Communist foreign policy and the racial conservatism of many unionists.

  • CHAPTER PHONE: 223-8300 from the President
    DuDe ([tmcs CHAPTER PHONE: 223-8300 AUGUST 1987 From the President Feminists who gathered in Philadelphia for the national ' NOW Conference this July had much to celebrate, both in the successful handling and cooperative democracy of internal elections, and in the great body of work that the conference as a whole was able to accomplish. The genuine goodwill share~ among the force of over 2,000 was itself eloquent testimony to the unity of spirit that presided there. One of our own, Patricia Ireland, moved up as national officer to become Vice-President Executive and the first line of support for Molly Yard, NOW's new national President. Then too, the presence of the likely contender for the u.s. Presidency sparked a wave of enthusiasm among the many feminist women and men on the conference floor and produced a solidarity conspicuous even to those who were there just to observe. Media coverage of Patricia Schroeder's visit was extensive, and cheering crowds pledged dollars to Schroeder's run for the presidency, chapter by chapter and state by state. Dade County NOW pledged a significant figure too, both affirming our commitment to the feminiza tion of power, and reminding this new chapter president of the work that lies ahead. (Make your .checks out to The Patricia Schroeder Campaign Fund and send them care of Dade County NOW - we'll do the rest, and more!) Among the resolutions passed by the conference body were many that require our continued efforts on behalf of women a nd minorities.· We will, for example, form coalitions to prevent the' confirmation of Robert Bork to the Supreme Court; we will mobilize major resources to hold the largest civil rights march ever on behalf of lesbians and gays in Washington, D.C.

From 1951 to 1979, he was the chairman of the Iron Ore Industry Board of Arbitration that oversaw labor relations between U.S. Steel Corporation and the United Steelworkers of America. Sylvester Garrett was a law professor and pioneer labor mediator, who helped shape the landscape of industrial relations in the United States. During World War II, President Roosevelt named Garrett as the chair of the Regional War Labor Board. He was the chief arbitrator between the United Steelworkers of America (USWA) and the nation’s steel producers for 28 years. He served as an arbitrator for labor disputes from 1950 to 1995, but it was during his tenure in the steel industry, from 1951 to 1979, that marked the height of his influence on labor policy. Sylvester Garrett was the son of Sylvester Sharpless Garrett (August 7, 1877-August 18, 1967) and his wife Mary Ann Thompson Garrett (February 2, 1885-1968).

  • Reform in Philadelphia: Joseph S. Clark, Richardson Dilworth and the Women Who Made Reform Possible, 1947–1949
    Reform in Philadelphia: Joseph S. Clark, Richardson Dilworth and the Women Who Made Reform Possible, 1947–1949 HE POLITICAL HISTORY OF PHILADELPHIA in the twentieth century has been well documented. From Lincoln Steffens’s Texposé of Republican corruption to the massive 300-year history of the Quaker City published in 1982, journalists, historians, and even a few politicians have described the long years of Republican rule and the momentous events of the postwar era that ushered in a new age of Democratic Party domination. Most chronicles of the period from 1947 to 1951—the years of revolution—are rather standard works that focus on the efforts of the two principal reformers, Joseph S. Clark and Richardson Dilworth, the work of the Democratic Party on their behalf, and the misdeeds of the GOP machine and its operatives. There is, however, more to the story. Far less attention has been given to the fact that while Clark and Dilworth ran on the Democratic ticket, they had fashioned an independent campaign organization that included representatives not only from the regular Democratic Party but also organized labor and independent Republicans. Above all, through a controversial organization, the Americans for Democratic Action (ADA), the reformers had built links to the city’s fledgling liberal establishment. Years later, when Clark sat down to write his memoirs, he took partic- ular care to detail the contributions of thirteen individuals who formed the core of the 1949 campaign committee. Those thirteen, along with Clark and Dilworth, mapped strategy, delegated responsibility, coordinated efforts, and educated workers. They were the brain trust—the individuals most responsible for the success of the revolution.

INTRODUCTION Recent scholarship has convincingly shown that social movements shape constitutional law, and vice versa.1 To date, most theories study alternatives to formal constitutional amendments or consider the proper role for the courts in influencing the development of social movements.2 In this Article, however, I approach the question of constitutional change from the standpoint of social movements that oppose a constitutional decision. What tools are available to a movement seeking to change the meaning of a decision? What are the advantages or disadvantages of pursuing an Article V amendment, of codifying a favorable constitutional interpretation by statute, or beginning a litigation campaign? Often, current constitutional change scholarship has neglected these questions and has instead focused on the identification, study, Mary Ziegler is a Ruebhausen Fellow in Law and Postdoctoral Associate in Law at Yale Law School.

The government newspaper Izvestia said rescuers had found the bodies of 19 of the 42 sailors killed when the sub sank north of Norway on Friday. Tass, the official news agency, said the 27 survivors were hospitalized in serious condition at Murmansk, a Soviet Arctic port, and investigators were able to interview them for only minutes at a time.
