IN 1928, automobile advertisements offered "flash- ing power at your fingertips." Then, as now, car owners wanted better performance —and "Ethyl" gasoline helped them get it.

    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.

Looking back on our fourteenth year, you will find exhibitions, programs, and events that showcased the most innovative art and engaged our community: on AU’s campus, locally, and internationally. These successes brought a rise in attendance and number of tours, new members, and critical reviews. The American University Museum staff compiled this report to share our achievements from this past year. A few highlights from this year: • The blockbuster exhibition, Ralph Steadman: A Retrospective, brought over 2,200 guests to the museum on opening night! An exciting line-up of sponsors allowed us to advertise with Washington Metrobus for the first time. The city-wide promotion and features by BBC World News and the Washington Post ensured some of our highest attendance on record. • Through partnerships with the Embassy of the United Arab Emirates Washington, DC, Taipei Economic and Cultural Representative Office, Sultan Qaboos Cultural Center, and the Central and Eastern European Art Foundation, we were able to organize exhibitions featuring artists from over 20+ countries.

  • American Protestants and US Foreign Policy Toward the Soviet
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by K-State Research Exchange American Protestants and U.S. Foreign Policy Toward the Soviet Union During the Eisenhower Administration: Billy Graham, Reinhold Niebuhr, and G. Bromley Oxnam by AARON K. DAVIS B.A., Northern Illinois University, 2008 M.A., Western Illinois University, 2010 AN ABSTRACT OF A DISSERTATION submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Department of History College of Arts and Sciences KANSAS STATE UNIVERSITY Manhattan, Kansas 2017 Abstract This dissertation considers American Protestant perceptions of U.S. foreign policy directed toward Soviet Union during the Dwight D. Eisenhower presidency (1953-1961). The question of what a culture dominated by Protestant denominations thought of its global adversary has not yet been sufficiently explored by scholars of either American religious history or diplomatic history. Most scholars who deal with the intersection of religion and foreign policy during the Eisenhower Administration tend to accentuate the close relationship that existed between government policy and general religious attitudes. That is to say, a general, widespread Protestant support of foreign policy objectives stands as the prevailing interpretation. Most historians conclude that America’s Protestant church leaders—preachers, pastors, and bishops— either actively supported government foreign policy objectives or sought to insert their own stances into existing policy. More recently, historians have published monographs that further explore Protestant Christianity with regard to foreign policy in the 1950s. By acknowledging the different strands of Protestant Christianity, scholars have raised significant questions that have heretofore gone unanswered.

Goodman, PHD Susan Seizer, PHD May 16, 2012 ii Copyright © 2014 Eran Livni iii To Gencho Gaintadzhiev За Генчо Гайтанджиев iv Acknowledgments This dissertation could not have come to life without the generosity, hospitality, good will and cooperation of so many people, most of whom I met by chance on the way from one place to another in Bulgaria.
