  • Garland's Million: the Radical Experiment To
    October 14, 2019 To: ABF Legal History Seminar From: John Fabian Witt Re: October 23 seminar Thanks so much for looking at my drafts and coming to my session! I’m thrilled to have been invited to Chicago. I am attaching chapters 5 and 8 from my book-in-progress, tentatively titled Garland’s Million: The Radical Experiment to Save American Democracy. The book is the story of an organization known informally as the Garland Fund or formally as the American Fund for Public Service: a philanthropic foundation established in 1922 to give money to liberal and left causes. The Fund figures prominently in the history of civil rights lawyering because of its role setting in motion the early stages of the NAACP’s litigation campaign that led a quarter-century later to Brown v. Board of Education. I hope you will be able to get some sense of the project from the crucial chapters I’ve attached here. These chapters come from Part 2 of the book. Part 1 focuses on Roger Baldwin, the founder of the ACLU and the principal energy behind the Fund. Part 2 (including the chapters here) focuses on James Weldon Johnson, who ran the NAACP during the 1920s and was a board member of the Fund. Parts 3 and 4 turn respectively to Elizabeth Gurley Flynn (a labor radical on the board) and Felix Frankfurter, who in the 1920s served as a key outside consultant and counsel to the Fund. To set the stage, readers have learned in Part 1 about Baldwin as a disillusioned reformer, who advocated progressive programs like the initiative and referendum only to see direct democracy produce a wave of white supremacist initiatives.

  • Women Railroad Telegraphers and Station
    "A LOOK INTO THE FUTURE": WOMEN RAILRDAD TELEGRAPHERS AND STATION AGENTS IN PENNSYLVANIA, 1B55-196D Thomas C. Jepsen National Coalition of IndependentScholars n the April 1913 issue of The Pilot, the employees' magazine of the Reading Railroad, a cartoon appeared over the caption, "A Look into the Future," depicting an anxious-looking male railroad employee looking though a magical telescope into a future in which a "Miss R. U. Married" is the station agent at a railroad depot, while other women railroad employees vigor ously flag trains and drive spikes.1 His anxiety at being replaced by one of these assertive women probably reflected the feelings of many male railroaders at a time when the number of female telegraphers and station agents working for the railroads was approaching a peak.2 Though little remembered today, the presence of women in as railroad depots working station agents, ticket agents, and telegraphers was taken for granted in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. Frances Willard, writing in 1897, noted that the sight of "a young woman presiding over the telegraph in offices and railway stations" was so ordinary "that one has ceased to have even a feeling of surprise at seeing them there."3 B.

  • Andrew Carnegie: the Richest Man in the World Program Transcript
    Page 1 Andrew Carnegie: The Richest Man in the World Program Transcript Narrator: For 700 years Scottish Bishops and Lords had reigned over Skibo Castle. In 1899 it passed to an American who had fled Scotland penniless. To Andrew Carnegie Skibo was "heaven on earth." "If Heaven is more beautiful than this," he joked, "someone has made a mistake." When Carnegie left Scotland at age 12, he was living with his family in one cramped room. He returned to 40,000 acres. And he wasn't yet the richest man in the world. Andrew Carnegie's life seemed touched by magic. Owen Dudley Edwards, Historian: Carnegie was more than most people. Not only more wealthy, not only more optimistic. In his case it goes almost to the point of unreality. Carnegie is still right throughout his life, the little boy in the fairy story, for whom everything has to be alright. Narrator: Carnegie was a legendary figure in his own time. A nineteenth century icon. He embodied the American dream - the immigrant who made it from rags to riches. Whose schoolhouse was the library. The democratic American whose house guests included Mark Twain, Booker T. Washington, Helen Keller, Rockefellers and royalty and the ordinary folks from his childhood. He would entertain them all together. Although he loved Scotland, he prized America as a land free from Britain's monarchy -- and inherited privilege. After King Edward VII visited Skibo, Carnegie told a friend all Americans are kings. But everyone knew there was only one king of steel. Harold Livesay, Historian: He set out literally to conquer the world of steel, and that he did and became the largest steel producer not only in the United States, but Carnegie Steel by 1900 produced more steel than the entire steel industry of Great Britain.
