    ANNALS The Syracuse Chamber of Commerce lists eleven reasons for support by Syracusans of the million dollar drive; They are: 1. "To clear the University of debt by June 30, 1927, $1,500,000 must be raised. Pledges on a three year basis. 2. "Paying present obligations will cancel interest charges after which any small deficit can easily be taken care of. 3. "After the University sets its house in order, it will be in a better position to ·expect assistance from capitalists and endowment foundations. 4. "From a business standpoint the University is the largest industry in the city and means more financially to our merchants than any two of our largest manufacturing plants. Students and employes spend over $6,500,000 a year in Syracuse. 5. "Two thousand sons and daughters of residents of Syracuse and On­ ondaga County attend the University. Probably one-half this number could not afford to .go away to college. This will be true of future gen­ erations. 6. "We cannot estimate what contact with the University means to our citizens educationally, religously. 7. "The University has added millions of dollars to real estate values in the city. Many parents who move here to educate their children stay here permanently. Many graduates become Syracusans. 8.

  • The NYND U.S. District Court, History and Antecedents
    ANNUAL LECTURE* Sponsored by the Federal Bar Council and the Second Circuit Historical Committee The United States District Court for the Northern District of New York -Its History and Antecedents Hon. Roger J. Miner** United States District Judge United States Courthouse Foley Square, New York, N.Y. April 10, 1984 I am pleased to contribute yet another link in the chain of the history of the Courts of the Second Circuit being forged by the Federal Bar Council and the Second Circuit Historical Committee. On behalf of the United States District Court for the Northern District of New York, the eldest child of the "Mother Court," I assert claims not only to the most exciting history, but also to the most scenic location, the most colorful bench and bar, and the most significant cases in the Second Circuit. This use of chauvinistic hyperbole traditionally has been associated with the Southern District. Be assured, however, that my claims will be proved to your satisfaction before I have concluded. Although the Northern District has a glorious past, its future now is uncertain. Created by Congress in 1814, it appears that its dissolution may have begun in 1983 with our Circuit Court's decision in Oneida Indian Nation v. County of Oneida.1 According to some interpretations, the holding in that case portends the return of most of the thirty- two counties constituting the Northern District to the native Americans who originally inhabited them. The consequences of the decision are far reaching, and rumor has it that our Chief Judge already has opened negotiations with the chiefs of the Iroquois Nations regarding our employment in the Tribal Courts.
