Flood damage and loss of life, December 1955-January 1956- 140 FLOODS OF 1955 SUMMARY OF FLOODS IN THE UNITED STATES DURING 1955 ABSTRACT Floods in the United States during 1955 caused damage which has been ex­ ceeded only by the floods of July 1951 in Kansas and Missouri. A destructive series of floods occurred in the Northeastern States in five periods during August-October 1955 and covered the area from New England to North Carolina. A second series of floods of extreme magnitude began in the Western States in December 1955 and continued on into January 1956, covering Cali­ fornia (with the exception of about the southern one-fourth) the western part of Nevada, the southwestern part of Oregon, and west-central Idaho. Another flood of great magnitude occurred in May in the Arkansas River basin of Colorado and New Mexico.

They were provided by a large sales finance company to represent changes in terms and experience in twelve metropolitan areas during this period. These areas were selected on the basis of their employment experience in 195 3—55 to encom- pass the complete spectrum of labor market situations as defined by the Bureau of Employment Security, as well as to cover the country geographically. The period to which the data apply was, of course, basically a fairly prosperous period, but it does include the mild busi- ness contraction of July 1953—August 1954. During this recession we have traced a number of the relevant economic variables by means of cross-sectional analysis. The twelve metropolitan areas and their classi- fication with respect to adequacy of labor supply are: July 1953 July 1954 July 1955 Hartford I II B New York City III III C Philadelphia III IV-A D Atlanta II II B Pittsburgh III IV-A D Chicago II III C St.

    National Humanities Center Resource Toolbox The Making of African American Identity: Vol. III, 1917-1968 Black Belt Press The ONTGOMERY BUS BOYCOTT M and the WOMEN WHO STARTED IT __________________________ The Memoir of Jo Ann Gibson Robinson __________________________ Mrs. Jo Ann Gibson Robinson Black women in Montgomery, Alabama, unlocked a remarkable spirit in their city in late 1955. Sick of segregated public transportation, these women decided to wield their financial power against the city bus system and, led by Jo Ann Gibson Robinson (1912-1992), convinced Montgomery's African Americans to stop using public transportation. Robinson was born in Georgia and attended the segregated schools of Macon. After graduating from Fort Valley State College, she taught school in Macon and eventually went on to earn an M.A. in English at Atlanta University. In 1949 she took a faculty position at Alabama State College in Mont- gomery. There she joined the Women's Political Council. When a Montgomery bus driver insulted her, she vowed to end racial seating on the city's buses. Using her position as president of the Council, she mounted a boycott. She remained active in the civil rights movement in Montgomery until she left that city in 1960. Her story illustrates how the desire on the part of individuals to resist oppression — once *it is organized, led, and aimed at a specific goal — can be transformed into a mass movement. Mrs. T. M. Glass Ch. 2: The Boycott Begins n Friday morning, December 2, 1955, a goodly number of Mont- gomery’s black clergymen happened to be meeting at the Hilliard O Chapel A.

History is replete with instances where, even in the light of obvious and flagrant macroeconomics disequilibria, the implementation of stabilization programs is significantly delayed. Why do policymakers and/or politicians prefer to live with growing inflationary pressures and implement price and other forms of highly inefficient con- trols instead of tackling the roots of macroeconomic imbalances? Is the prolongation of inflation the consequence of mistaken views on the me- chanics of fiscal deficits and money creation, or is it the unavoidable result of the political game? Why, after months of apparent political stalemate, are stabilization programs all of a sudden adopted that closely resemble others proposed earlier? These questions are at the heart of the political economy of stabilization and inflationary finance.1 In recent years the analysis of these issues has attained new interest, as a number of authors have applied the tools of game theory to the study of macroeconomic pol- icymaking.

  • Connecticut Town Guides: Compiled from Collections at the CT State Library
    Connecticut Town Guides: Compiled from Collections at the CT State Library Compiled by Jeannie Sherman, Reference Librarian, History & Genealogy Unit, Connecticut State Library, 2016 Introduction Many people visit the Connecticut State Library to research their family history. We hold one of the best genealogy collections in Connecticut including our indexes to pre-1850 vital records, cemetery inscriptions, church & family bible records, marriage & death notices, and probate estate papers. Though these indexes are state-wide by surname, we also hold records for each town. As any person who attempts to do genealogy research in Connecticut discovers, knowing what town a family lived in is very important. Connecticut currently has one hundred and sixty-nine towns each with their own vital, land, and probate district chronology. As towns in Connecticut were created, most were set off from a parent town. County boundaries also changed throughout Connecticut's history, so knowing a parent town or knowing in which county a town was located over time can help researchers search for court and other records. The purpose of these Town Guides is to have in one place basic information about each town. This includes the year it was established, the parent town, historical county information, vital and church record information, a probate district chronology, and a list of cemeteries that were inventoried in the Hale Collection. For town vital records and church records, both the Connecticut State Library (CSL) microfilm number and the Latter-Day Saint (LDS) microfilm number are given where applicable. Researchers are encouraged to search by film number within the LDS catalog as many vital records can be found online.

  • THE WEATHER and CIRCULATION of AUGUST 1955' Including the Climatologicalbackground for Hurricanes Connie and Diane JEROME NAMIAS and CARLOS R
    AUGUST1955 MONTHLY WEATHER REVIEW 163 THE WEATHER AND CIRCULATION OF AUGUST 1955' Including the Climatological Background for Hurricanes Connie and Diane JEROME NAMIAS AND CARLOS R. DUNN Extended Forecast Section, U. S. Weather Bureau, Washington. D. C. ABSTRACT The general circulation during August 1955 was characterized by an abnormally contracted circumpolar westerly whirl and an associated northward displacement of the belt of subtropical anticyclones and subtropical easterlies. While this zonal circulation was similar in many respects to thatof the preceding July andled to a pattern of temper- ature anomaly over the United States similar to July's, the rainfall differed tremendously, particularly over the Northeast where flood-producing rains associated with hurricanes Connie and Diane replaced a regime of drought. The differences between July and August are accounted for by westward displacements of the centers of action coupled withmarkedly similar anomalous zonal circulations (i.e., displaced poleward). Theearly onset of the hurricane season is attributed to the premature northward displacement of the subtropical belt of anticyclones. The unprecedented precipitation associated with hurricanes Connie and Diane is believed to be partially related to injection of abnormally moist tropical air from an appreciably warmer than normal sea surface. The 1955 crop of hurricanes contained two early season Climatic fluctuations of shortand long durationin storms, Connie andDiane, which will furnish ample temperature, precipitation, andother
