Biographical Note Garfield Bromley Oxnam (1891-1963), Methodist Church bishop, was educated at the University of Southern California (A.B., 1913), and Boston University (S.T.B., 1915). He did graduate study at Harvard and other schools. During his career, twenty-one institutions, including American, Boston, Northwestern, Princeton, Southern California, and Yale Universities, conferred on him a total of eight honorary degrees. On August 19, 1914, he married Ruth Fisher. Oxnam was admitted on trial in the Southern California Conference in 1913 and was ordained a deacon in 1915 and ordained an elder in 1917. His appointments were: Poplar, California (1916); Church of All Nations, Los Angeles (1917-1926); professor, Boston University School of Theology (1927); and president of DePauw University (1928-1935). While serving the church, Oxnam was also professor of social ethics at the University of Southern California. A delegate to four General Conferences (1924-1936), Oxnam was elected bishop in 1936. His epsicopal assignments were Omaha (1936-1939), Boston (1939-1944), New York (1944-1952), and Washington (1952-1960). He wielded great influence as secretary of the Council of Bishops from 1936 to 1956. Oxnam conceived and led the Methodist Crusade for World Order from 1944 to 1948. Under his leadership, Westminister Seminary in Maryland was moved to Washington, at Wesley Seminary, and the School of International Service was established at American University with funds appropriated by the General Conference. Active in denominational and ecumenical organizations and movements, Oxnam served as president of the Federal Council of Churches (1944-1946), was a presiding officer at the organization of the National Council of Churches ( 1950), was one of the presidents of the World Council of Churches (1948- 1954), and later was a member of the Central Committee of the World Council of Churches. He chaired the division of educational institutions of the General Board of Education (1939-1944), and did the same for the Division of Foreign Missions of the General Board of Global Ministries (1944-1952). During World War II, he was a member of the Civil Advisory Commission to the Secretary of the Navy. He was chairman of the Commission to Study Post War Relief Conditions in Germany, and he was also chairman of the Methodist Commission on Chaplains. Oxnam claimed that the Congressional Committe on Un-American Activities had for seven years released so called "files" containing false material which said or suggested that he was a communist. He also argued that the Committee had ignored repeated requests to correct its files. Oxnam requested and received a hearing before the Committee in July 1953. General Commisson on Archives and History Page 1 Madison, New Jersey Guide to the Garfield Bromley Oxnam Papers In 1960, Oxnam retired from the active ministry. He died on March 12, 1963. Oxnam's ashes are interred in the chapel of Wesley Theological Seminary in Washington, D.C. Scope Note The collection touches upon both his presidency at DePauw University and bishop of the Methodist Church. It is the latter area which has more information than the former one. His sermons are from the mid-twentieth century where Oxnam preached on a number of topics related to the ministry of the larger church. Other topics include World War II, fascism, communism race, labor, social change, democracy, ecumenicism and intellectualism. The highlight of the collection is the information on fascism and communism which includes his famous testimony before the House of Representative’s Un-American Activities Committee. In contrast to this debacle, one can see Oxnam as a firm patriot to the United States cause during World War II. Oxnam was keenly interested in the field of ethics which permeates most of the above mentioned topics. These same topics are explored in various audio recordings in the form of radio broadcasts and speaking engagements as well as paper documents such as lectures, addresses and correspondence. The audio recordings are currently in both transcription and compact disks. Finally, there is a United States Army field communion set presented to Oxnam by the government. Finally, there are a number of glass lantern slides from the early twentieth century mainly depicting the church’s work with poor immigrants in the Los Angeles, Boston, Denver, Pittsburgh and New York City areas with Los Angeles being the largest segment. Related to this immigrant work are images of churches which served these groups including one congregation that had a lantern slide screen in the sanctuary. Plat maps of Methodist parishes and social problems in Los Angeles illustrate where the church focused its attention within the city. Churches outside of Los Angeles include, Morgan Memorial in Boston, Grant Avenue in Denver, St. Bartholomew in New York City, St. Mark's in Detroit and United Presbyterian in Pittsburgh. There are California landscape images along with a few Los Angeles tenement slides. Other Methodist works such as the Deaconess Home in Los Angeles and the College of Liberal Arts at the University of Southern California round out the rest of lantern slides.

    Charles Springer of Cranehook-on-the-Delaware His Descendants and Allied Families By JESSIE EVELYN SPRINGER ACKNOWLEDGMENTS For help on Springer research grateful acknow­ ledgment is extended to Mrs. Courtland B. Springer of Upper Darby, Pennsylvania, Mrs. Louise Eddleman, -Springfield, Kentucky, Mable Warner Milligan, Indian­ apolis, now deceased; the allied families, Gary Edward Young; John McKendree Springer, now deceased; Thomas Oglesby Springer and Lucinda Irwin, deceased; and Mary, Raymond and Theora Hahn.

Head, Springfield, Illinois Charles Springer of Cranehook-on-the-Delaware His Descendants and Allied Families by Jessie Evelyn Springer OUR HERITAGE FORWORD Sarah John English has said "Genealogy, or the history of families, is not a service to the past gener­ ations, or a glorification of the dead, but a service to the living, and to coming generations." A study of those who gave us life can help us understand what makes us tick, and help us tolerate ourselves and each other. As this is the story of the heritage of four Springer sisters - Mary Springer Jackson, Florence Springer Volk, Carolyn Springer Dalton, and Jessie Springer, spinster, it seems best, to the writer, after

  • Finding Aid Prepared by David Kennaly Washington, D.C
    THE LIBRARY OF CONGRESS RARE BOOK AND SPECIAL COLLECTIONS DIVISION THE RADICAL PAMPHLET COLLECTION Finding aid prepared by David Kennaly Washington, D.C. - Library of Congress - 1995 LIBRARY OF CONGRESS RARE BOOK ANtI SPECIAL COLLECTIONS DIVISIONS RADICAL PAMPHLET COLLECTIONS The Radical Pamphlet Collection was acquired by the Library of Congress through purchase and exchange between 1977—81. Linear feet of shelf space occupied: 25 Number of items: Approx: 3465 Scope and Contents Note The Radical Pamphlet Collection spans the years 1870-1980 but is especially rich in the 1930-49 period. The collection includes pamphlets, newspapers, periodicals, broadsides, posters, cartoons, sheet music, and prints relating primarily to American communism, socialism, and anarchism. The largest part deals with the operations of the Communist Party, USA (CPUSA), its members, and various “front” organizations. Pamphlets chronicle the early development of the Party; the factional disputes of the 1920s between the Fosterites and the Lovestoneites; the Stalinization of the Party; the Popular Front; the united front against fascism; and the government investigation of the Communist Party in the post-World War Two period. Many of the pamphlets relate to the unsuccessful presidential campaigns of CP leaders Earl Browder and William Z. Foster. Earl Browder, party leader be—tween 1929—46, ran for President in 1936, 1940 and 1944; William Z. Foster, party leader between 1923—29, ran for President in 1928 and 1932. Pamphlets written by Browder and Foster in the l930s exemplify the Party’s desire to recruit the unemployed during the Great Depression by emphasizing social welfare programs and an isolationist foreign policy.

  • Continuity and Change in the Luba Christian Movement, Katanga, Belgian Congo C.1915-50
    Continuity and Change in the Luba Christian Movement, Katanga, Belgian Congo c.1915-50 By DAVID MAXWELL Emmanuel College, Cambridge E-mail [email protected] In the wake of the First World War a movement of popular Christianity took force amongst the Luba speaking peoples of southeast Katanga, Belgian Congo. The movement shared many characteristics with others that traversed Africa in the same era described by Adrian Hastings in his magisterial The Church Africa.1 Katangese popular Christianity bore particular resemblance to the better known Congolese movement which occurred amongst the Bakongo in the 1920s in which the prophet and former Baptist catechist, Simon Kimbangu, was the most prominent of a number of actors.2 At first glance Luba popular Christianity represented a seismic shift in CAM = Central African Missions (fomerly Congo Evangelisic Mission), Preston.

  • United Methodist Bishops Ordination Chain 1784 - 2012
    United Methodist Bishops Ordination Chain 1784 - 2012 General Commission on Archives and History Madison, New Jersey 2012 UNITED METHODIST BISHOPS in order of Election This is a list of all the persons who have been consecrated to the office of bishop in The United Methodist Church and its predecessor bodies (Methodist Episcopal Church; Methodist Protestant Church; Methodist Episcopal Church, South; Church of the United Brethren in Christ; Evangelical Association; United Evangelical Church; Evangelical Church; The Methodist Church; Evangelical United Brethren Church, and The United Methodist Church). The list is arranged by date of election. The first column gives the date of election; the second column gives the name of the bishop. The third column gives the name of the person or organization who ordained the bishop. The list, therefore, enables clergy to trace the episcopal chain of ordination back to Wesley, Asbury, or another person or church body. We regret that presently there are a few gaps in the ordination information, especially for United Methodist Central Conferences. However, the missing information will be provided as soon as it is available. This list was compiled by C. Faith Richardson and Robert D. Simpson .
