To the memory of Wayne Chesser Executive Summary What We Did and Why We Did It The National Historic Preservation Act (16 USC 470 et seq.) and Executive Order 11593 requires cultural re- sources inventories of federal properties. From 1994 to 1997, the Adjutant General’s Department of Texas (AGTX) Cultural Resources Program staff conducted a pedestrian inventory of archeological sites and historic structures at Camp Bowie. We explored all but approximately 150 of the camp’s 9,297 acres. This report presents our findings and makes recommendations regarding National Register eligibility for each site or structure found. What We Found We discovered or revisited 186 archeological sites, structures, or groups of structures. Of these, 18 prehistoric sites and six historic sites or structures/groups are potentially eligible. These 24 sites are considered sensitive and will receive protective measures until they can be further evaluated. Of the remaining 162 sites, 158 are not eligible—primarily due to shallow soils, erosion, or disturbance—and do not require any special protection. The remaining four sites will require additional shovel tests to determine eligibility. This work is planned for the immediate future. What Next? To ascertain their eligibility, the critical sites require investigation that is beyond the scope of the present study. For the prehistoric sites, test excavations would be the primary investigative tool. For the historic sites and structures, photo-documentation, measured drawings, and historical research would be the primary methods. Recommendations We recommend that the Adjutant General’s Department avoid disturbing the potentially eligible sites and struc- tures until they can be thoroughly evaluated for National Register eligibility. In order to ensure this protection, the following measures will be implemented: · The facility manager will be provided with a location map of critical sites. · Buffer zones will be established around critical sites. · Within the buffer zones, the following policy will be implemented: —Vehicular traffic must stay on existing roads. —Digging, construction, or demolition will require consultation with the AGTX environmental office. The facility managers will brief all incoming units that will be training at the camp, and show them areas that are considered sensitive and/or off-limits. The results of this and other surveys will be used to support a Cultural Resources Management Plan, and the Adjutant General’s Department will continue in its role as steward to the cultural resources on National Guard training sites across Texas. i Site Location Map We have elected to not include the overall site location map in this report because of the sensitivity issues involved with archeological sites. For those readers who are interested, this map may be obtained by calling (512) 782-6194, or writing to AGTX-EV, Cultural Resources, P.O.

  • How German Soldiers Spent World War II in Brown County, Texas
    PRISONERS, NOT CRIMINALS: HOW CAPTURED GERMAN SOLDIERS SURVIVED WORLD WAR II IN CENTRAL TEXAS James N. Dunning The University of Texas at Arlington April 2011 1 PRISONERS, NOT CRIMINALS: HOW CAPTURED GERMAN SOLDIERS SURVIVED WORLD WAR II IN CENTRAL TEXAS On a warm Friday afternoon, under a bright Texas sun, the sound of 300 pairs of marching boots echoed through the rolling hills of Brown County. As the contingent of battle- worn, weary soldiers passed through the main gates of Camp Bowie, a U.S. Army base outside Brownwood, Texas, a chorus rang out like a clarion alarm: Deutschland, Deutschland über alles, Über alles in der Welt Army and civilian personnel rushed from their work stations out to the dusty streets to watch as the first wave of German prisoners of war passed by, marching to their new homes, proudly singing their nation’s anthem. Despite their soiled and tattered uniforms, they puffed out their chests and marched side-by-side with their fellow countrymen. For many, like former Camp Bowie librarian Wynelle Hewitt, the arrival of German soldiers in Central Texas on August 13, 1943, was a watershed moment during World War II. The enemy, they would recall, had finally reached their homes: I was working in the Camp Bowie Library No. 1. … And they [German POWs] walked right by the library. They had those steel boots on, you know? Klompity, klompity, klomp. And they were singing their national anthem. And that made the hair stand straight up on the back of your head! It was really, really nerve- wracking in a way because you didn’t know what they were going to do.1 Hewitt watched as the German POWs marched past the post office and whites-only service club, past Theater No.

    December 4, 2017 The Hon. Wilbur L. Ross, Jr., Secretary United States Department of Commerce 1401 Constitution Avenue, NW Washington, D.C. 20230 Re: Uncoated Groundwood Paper from Canada, Inv. Nos. C–122–862 and A-122-861 Dear Secretary Ross: On behalf of the thousands of employees working at the more than 1,100 newspapers that we publish in cities and towns across the United States, we urge you to heavily scrutinize the antidumping and countervailing duty petitions filed by North Pacific Paper Company (NORPAC) regarding uncoated groundwood paper from Canada, the paper used in newspaper production. We believe that these cases do not warrant the imposition of duties, which would have a very severe impact on our industry and many communities across the United States. NORPAC’s petitions are based on incorrect assessments of a changing market, and appear to be driven by the short-term investment strategies of the company’s hedge fund owners. The stated objectives of the petitions are flatly inconsistent with the views of the broader paper industry in the United States. The print newspaper industry has experienced an unprecedented decline for more than a decade as readers switch to digital media. Print subscriptions have declined more than 30 percent in the last ten years. Although newspapers have successfully increased digital readership, online advertising has proven to be much less lucrative than print advertising. As a result, newspapers have struggled to replace print revenue with online revenue, and print advertising continues to be the primary revenue source for local journalism. If Canadian imports of uncoated groundwood paper are subject to duties, prices in the whole newsprint market will be shocked and our supply chains will suffer.

  • Notice of Chapter 11 Bankruptcy Case 12/15
    17-22445-rdd Doc 18 Filed 03/30/17 Entered 03/31/17 00:22:52 Imaged Certificate of Notice Pg 1 of 40 Information to identify the case: Debtor Metro Newspaper Advertising Services, Inc. EIN 13−1038730 Name United States Bankruptcy Court Southern District of New York Date case filed for chapter 11 3/27/17 Case number: 17−22445−rdd Official Form 309F (For Corporations or Partnerships) Notice of Chapter 11 Bankruptcy Case 12/15 For the debtor listed above, a case has been filed under chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code. An order for relief has been entered. This notice has important information about the case for creditors, debtors, and trustees, including information about the meeting of creditors and deadlines. Read both pages carefully. The filing of the case imposed an automatic stay against most collection activities. This means that creditors generally may not take action to collect debts from the debtor or the debtor's property. For example, while the stay is in effect, creditors cannot sue, assert a deficiency, repossess property, or otherwise try to collect from the debtor. Creditors cannot demand repayment from the debtor by mail, phone, or otherwise. Creditors who violate the stay can be required to pay actual and punitive damages and attorney's fees. Confirmation of a chapter 11 plan may result in a discharge of debt. A creditor who wants to have a particular debt excepted from discharge may be required to file a complaint in the bankruptcy clerk's office within the deadline specified in this notice. (See line 11 below for more information.) To protect your rights, consult an attorney.
