Anderson Committee Members, Jon R. Bond H. W. Brands John H. Lenihan David Vaught Head of Department, Walter L. Buenger May 2008 Major Subject: History iii ABSTRACT Truman, Congress and the Struggle for War and Peace in Korea. (May 2008) Larry Wayne Blomstedt, B.S., Texas State University; M.S., Texas A&M University-Kingsville Chair of Advisory Committee: Dr. Terry H. Anderson This dissertation analyzes the roles of the Harry Truman administration and Congress in directing American policy regarding the Korean conflict. Using evidence from primary sources such as Truman’s presidential papers, communications of White House staffers, and correspondence from State Department operatives and key congressional figures, this study suggests that the legislative branch had an important role in Korean policy. Congress sometimes affected the war by what it did and, at other times, by what it did not do. Several themes are addressed in this project. One is how Truman and the congressional Democrats failed each other during the war. The president did not dedicate adequate attention to congressional relations early in his term, and was slow to react to charges of corruption within his administration, weakening his party politically.

    Home of Franklin D. Roosevelt NATIONAL HISTORIC SITE. NEW YORK "This is the house in which my husband was born and brought up.... He alwl!Ys felt that this was his home, and he loved the house and the view, the woods, special trees .... " -Mrs. Franklin D. Roosevelt Franklin D. Roosevelt. 32d President of the United States was born in this home on January 30. 1882. He was the only child of James and Sara Roosevelt. Franklin Roosevelt spent much of his life here. Here Franklin-the toddler. the little boy. the young man-was shaped and grew to maturity. Here he brought his bride. Eleanor. in 1905. and here they raised their five children.

    F. D. Roosevelt, Norman Rockwell & the Four Freedoms (1943)

    F. D. Roosevelt, Norman Rockwell & the Four Freedoms (1943) Excerpt from Roosevelt’s January 16, 1941 speech before the U.S. Congress: “In the future days which we seek to make secure, we look forward to a world founded upon four essential human freedoms. The first is freedom of speech and expression -- everywhere in the world. The second is freedom of every person to worship God in his own way -- everywhere in the world. The third is freedom from want -- which, translated into world terms, means economic understandings which will secure to every nation a healthy peacetime life for its inhabitants -- everywhere in the world. The fourth is freedom from fear -- which, translated into world terms, means a world-wide reduction of armaments to such a point and in such a thorough fashion that no nation will be in a position to commit an act of physical aggression against any neighbor-- anywhere in the world. That is no vision of a distant millennium. It is a definite basis for a kind of world attainable in our own time and generation. That kind of world is the very antithesis of the so-called new order of tyranny which the dictators seek to create with the crash of a bomb. To that new order we oppose the greater conception -- the moral order. A good society is able to face schemes of world domination and foreign revolutions alike without fear. Since the beginning of our American history, we have been engaged in change -- in a perpetual peaceful revolution -- a revolution which goes on steadily, quietly adjusting itself to changing conditions -- without the concentration camp or the quick-lime in the ditch.

    Arturo Toscanini and Don Gillis in Rehearsal, Don Gillis Collection, University of North Texas

    Arturo Toscanini and Don Gillis in rehearsal, Don Gillis Collection, University of North Texas. Reproduced with permission. MARK MCKNIGHT, SUSANNAH CLEVELAND Rediscovering “Toscanini: The Man Behind the Legend” The following article is based on the authors’ presentation at the ARSC Conference in Austin, TX, April 2005. The focus is on the Don Gillis Collection, which the University of North Texas (UNT) Music Library acquired after Gillis’s death in 1978. Gillis, a longtime associate of Arturo Toscanini, served as the conductor’s assistant and the producer for the NBC Symphony broadcast concerts from 1944 until they ended ten years later. The photographs that illustrate this article are from the collection and are reproduced with permission. __________________________________________________________________________________ he story of Arturo Toscanini’s rise to fame as one of history’s most celebrated con- ductors is well known. Having spent the first several years of his professional life in T the opera pit, Toscanini then gained a reputation for his symphonic conducting, serving as principal conductor of the New York Philharmonic from 1929 to 1936. When he left that post and retired to his native Italy, his American fans believed they would never again see the maestro conduct here. At the age of 70, however, when most individuals are happily settled into retirement, Toscanini returned to the podium, this time in a completely new and, in some ways controversial, forum, as head of the recently organized NBC Symphony. He would remain with the orchestra until his final departure in 1954. Toscanini died three years later in New York, just two months before his ninetieth birthday.

Paige, first Negro magisti ate in the history of New York City, w§s born at Jv.ontgc m- ery, Alabama, July 18, 1898. Ris parents were I\.yle s A. Paige, a government employee, and the former Laujr a E. Coleman, a schoolteacher. Of the house in which he was born, Judge Paige says that it was as comfo:it - able, spacious and elegant as any in that locality "I was one of six children," he remarked in an interview, " and there was plenty of room in that it-Hise for all of us." The elder Paige died when young hyles was onli 2 years old. This left his mother with 6 small ch:aid. - ren, the oldest of whom was only 10. Iviyles was the next to ,the oldest, and he early felt the necessity of wprking after school to help his mother. His mother never married again, and reared her family alone. As a child hyles worked after school hours, on Saturdays, and in the summer vacations. He finally got work as an elevator operator in one of the leading department stores in Montgomery. Here he rose to vin- dow-dresser and salesman, and graduated from the public elementary school. In 1917 he graduated from the high school depart- (2) ment of St. Joseph's College, now known as the State Rormal Training School for Teachers. Although it was a struggle all tne way, the future magistrate did not stop here.
