Various kinds of finding aids are needed to facilitate the use of these records, and the first step in the records-description program is the compilation of preliminary inventories of the material in the 270-odd record groups to which the holdings of the National Archives are allocated. These inventories are called "preliminary" because they are provisional in character. They are prepared.as soon as possible after the records are received without waiting to screen out all disposable material or to per­ fect the arrangement of the records. They are compiled primarily for in­ ternal use: both as finding aids to help the staff render efficient refer­ ence service and as a means of establishing administrative control over the records. Each preliminary inventory contains an introduction that briefly states the history and fUnctions of the agency that accumulated the records.

  • To Read About Umberto Nobile and His Flight Over the North Pole
    90° North ~ UMBERTO NOBILE ~ The North Pole Flights Umberto Nobile – 1885 (Lauro, Italy) – 1978 (Rome, Italy Italian aeronautical engineer and aeronautical science professor; designer of semi-rigid airships including the Norge and Italia. Promoted from Colonel to General in the Italian air force following the Norge North Pole flight, forced to resign following the Italia disaster. Spent five years in the USSR in the 1930s developing Soviet airship program; lived in the US for several years during WW II; returned to Italy in 1944 where he remained until his death in 1978 at age 92. Italian airship designer and pilot Umberto Nobile took part in two flights over the North Pole, one in 1926 in the airship Norge and another in 1928 in the airship Italia. The Norge [meaning Norway] flight took place on May 11-14, 1926, and was a joint Norwegian-American-Italian venture. The co-leaders were the great Norwegian explorer Roald Amundsen, American adventurer Lincoln Ellsworth, and Italian Umberto Nobile, the airship's designer and pilot. The Norge departed Kings Bay [Ny Ålesund], Spitsbergen in the Svalbard Archipelago on May 11, 1926--just five days after American Richard Byrd's claimed (and highly questionable) attainment of the North Pole by airplane--and flew by way of the North Pole to Teller (near Nome), Alaska. The flight, which originated in Rome, had been touted as "Rome to Nome" but bad weather forced them to land at the small settlement of Teller just short of Nome. This was the first undisputed attainment of the North Pole by air and the first crossing of the polar sea from Europe to North America.

  • San Francisco Airport, a Report
    5/S Digitized by the Internet Archive in 2014 https://archive.org/details/sanfranciscoairp1931sanf i)HN FRANCISCO sfln ncisco airport 1931 Airport Committee Board of Supervisors E. J. Spaulding, Chairman Jefferson E. Peyser, Carl W. Miles Superintendent Captain Roy N. Francis Directing Heads San Francisco Airport Supervisor E. J. Spaulding, Chairman Supervisor Carl W. Miles Supervisor Jefferson E. Peyser SAN FRANCISCO ruBLtC LIBRARY INTRODUCTORY THIS REPORT on the San Francisco Airport, formerly Mills Field, was conceived with two purposes in mind. The First was to give to the people of San Francisco and the San Francisco Bay Region a complete history of the de- velopment of their airport. The second was to give to inter- ested persons and companies elsewhere a report on the facilities and advantages at the airport. In Part I, the compiler has listed a symposium of the opinions of aeronautical experts from all parts of the world who have seen and tested the San Francisco Airport. Part I also foil ows the development of the airport from the time the job of providing a central depot for air traffic was first undertaken to the present time. Part II is concerned principally with information about the airport of today and its projected development for the future. Airport Committee, Board of Supervisors Supervisor E. Jack Spaulding, Chairman supervisor Carl W. Miles Supervisor Jefferson E. Peyser Five from the heart of SAN FRANCISCO The city's municipal airport is strategically located, nearest to the heart of San Francisco of all the airports sur- rounding San Francisco Bay. In the very midst of the inevitable development down the peninsula, it affords easy and quick land transportation to the air passenger and avoids plane travel's greatest handicap, the difficulty and lost time encountered in traversing the relatively short distance from flying field to ultimate destination.

  • Roald Amundsen Essay Prepared for the Encyclopedia of the Arctic by Jonathan M
    Roald Amundsen Essay prepared for The Encyclopedia of the Arctic By Jonathan M. Karpoff No polar explorer can lay claim to as many major accomplishments as Roald Amundsen. Amundsen was the first to navigate a Northwest Passage between the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans, the first to reach the South Pole, and the first to lay an undisputed claim to reaching the North Pole. He also sailed the Northeast Passage, reached a farthest north by air, and made the first crossing of the Arctic Ocean. Amundsen also was an astute and respectful ethnographer of the Netsilik Inuits, leaving valuable records and pictures of a two-year stay in northern Canada. Yet he appears to have been plagued with a public relations problem, regarded with suspicion by many as the man who stole the South Pole from Robert F. Scott, constantly having to fight off creditors, and never receiving the same adulation as his fellow Norwegian and sometime mentor, Fridtjof Nansen. Roald Engelbregt Gravning Amundsen was born July 16, 1872 in Borge, Norway, the youngest of four brothers. He grew up in Oslo and at a young age was fascinated by the outdoors and tales of arctic exploration. He trained himself for a life of exploration by taking extended hiking and ski trips in Norway’s mountains and by learning seamanship and navigation. At age 25, he signed on as first mate for the Belgica expedition, which became the first to winter in the south polar region. Amundsen would form a lifelong respect for the Belgica’s physician, Frederick Cook, for Cook’s resourcefulness in combating scurvy and freeing the ship from the ice.

Livingston earned the A. B. degree at Amherst College in 1904, continuing his work in Romance languages at Columbia University, where he received the Ph. D. in 1911. His teaching positions included an instructorship in Italian at Smith College (1908-1909), an associate professorship in Italian at Cornell University, where Livingston also supervised the Petrarch Catalogue (1910-1911), and an associate professorship in Romance Languages at Columbia University (1911-1917). Among the various honors bestowed upon Livingston were membership in Phi Beta Kappa and the Venetian academic society, the Reale deputazione veneta di storia patria; he was also decorated as a Cavalier of the Crown of Italy. Livingston's desire to disseminate the work of leading European writers and thinkers in the United States led him to an editorship with the Foreign Press Bureau of the Committee on Public Information during World War I. When the war ended, Livingston, in partnership with Paul Kennaday and Ernest Poole, continued his efforts on behalf of foreign literature by founding the Foreign Press Service, an agency that represented foreign authors in English-language markets.
