THESIS Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of Colorado State University-Pueblo in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of MASTER OF ARTS IN HISTORY Department of History COLORADO STATE UNIVERSITY-PUEBLO April 2012 Acknowledgements It is my honor to be adding to the historiography of Colorado and the Chicano Movement by completing the process of researching and writing Reclaiming Aztlan: Southern Colorado and Chicano Activism of the 1970s. Even though I use several topics in this thesis which I feel are vital to describe the history of southern Colorado during the 1970s this is in no way an entire history. Rather, I view my work as an opening salvo for history research to be done by future students and historians using the Ethnic Heritage & Diversity Collection housed in the archives at Colorado State University-Pueblo. I feel that a wealth of information exists pertaining to the Chicano Student Movement. The Juan Federico “Freddie Freak” Miguel Arguello Trujillo Chicano Movement Collection offers an excellent array of material for a historian to address the role of college students during the Chicano Movement in both Colorado and the region.

  • Surviving the Great Depression: Fitzsimons and the New Deal 233
    Surviving the Great Depression: Fitzsimons and the New Deal 233 Chapter Seven Surviving the Great Depression: Fitzsimons and the New Deal ongressman Lawrence Lewis, Democrat of Denver, was recovering from a bad cold as he and other state leaders worked over the weekend to pre- pare for President Franklin Roosevelt’s visit to Denver on Monday, 12 COctober 1936. In this election year, the nation was mired in the depths of the worst economic depression it had ever seen. The Army Medical Department was, like most of the government, financially strapped, and Fitzsimons’ future hung in the balance. As a cost-saving measure the Surgeon General wanted to close the facility and transfer patients to other government hospitals. Regardless of how effectively the Army’s tuberculosis specialists could treat patients, they faced los- ing one of their most powerful weapons—their only tuberculosis center—if the Surgeon General had his way. The success of the Army’s tuberculosis program was now a matter of politics and money as well as science and medicine. Lewis, part of the Colorado contingent advising Roosevelt on his visit, was determined that the president should visit Fitzsimons. (Roosevelt had been there once before, during the 1932 campaign.) Lewis wrote in his personal diary that he had wired a White House assistant, Marvin H. McIntyre, who was traveling on the presidential train, stating, “I strongly urged the desirability of the President visiting Fitzsimons Hospital.”1 McIntyre told Lewis that the president had agreed, remarking that “the Secret Service doesn’t want me to go to Fitzsimons hospital; but I’m going anyway.
