WILLIAMS r* __ _ _ ~_~_~ REPORT OF THE PRESIDENT To THE MEMBERS OF THE CORPORATION: In accordance with the by-laws of the Corporation, I have the honor to submit a report on the Massachusetts Institute of Technology for the past year, covering changes in personnel, development of educational policies, various important projects in the work of the several departments, some of the problems with which we are confronted, together with the reports of other administrative officers of the Institute with reference to the work of their offices. The Institute has carried on through the present emer- gency without serious impairment of any of its educational processes. Strict economy has been necessary, various desir- able projects have had to remain in abeyance, and the enroll[ ment has decreased somewhat. The spirit of the Institute is, however, excellent and it is ready to proceed effectively in a careful and economical way in order that it may maintain and advance its position in education. CHANGES IN PERSONNEL The Corporation has been strengthened during the past year by the election to Life Membership of Charles Neave and Franklin A. Park. The only other changes have been due to the expiration of the terms of service of Messrs. Lammot du Pont, Frank B. Jewett and William S. Forbes, the benefit of whose counsel we greatly appreciate, and the election of Messrs. Louis S. Cates, Harold B. Richmond and Allan Winter Rowe as new Term Members to serve until June 1938. There have been serious losses and important retirements in the Faculty. Professor Edward F. Miller, long Head of our Department of Mechanical Engineering, died on June 12. Professor William P. Ryan, one of the strongest younger men on the Faculty, and Head of the Department of Chemical Engineering, died suddenly on May 31. In addition, the Faculty has lost through death Professor Harrison W. Hayward of the Department of Mechanical Engineering, and Captain Louis R. _·____ __ MASSACHUSETTS INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY Knight, Assistant Professor in the Department of Military Science and Tactics. Professor William A. Johnston of the Department of Mechanical Engineering has been retired on account of physi- cal disability with the title Professor Emeritus.

  • THE PHILIPPINES, 1942-1944 James Kelly Morningstar, Doctor of History
    ABSTRACT Title of Dissertation: WAR AND RESISTANCE: THE PHILIPPINES, 1942-1944 James Kelly Morningstar, Doctor of History, 2018 Dissertation directed by: Professor Jon T. Sumida, History Department What happened in the Philippine Islands between the surrender of Allied forces in May 1942 and MacArthur’s return in October 1944? Existing historiography is fragmentary and incomplete. Memoirs suffer from limited points of view and personal biases. No academic study has examined the Filipino resistance with a critical and interdisciplinary approach. No comprehensive narrative has yet captured the fighting by 260,000 guerrillas in 277 units across the archipelago. This dissertation begins with the political, economic, social and cultural history of Philippine guerrilla warfare. The diverse Islands connected only through kinship networks. The Americans reluctantly held the Islands against rising Japanese imperial interests and Filipino desires for independence and social justice. World War II revealed the inadequacy of MacArthur’s plans to defend the Islands. The General tepidly prepared for guerrilla operations while Filipinos spontaneously rose in armed resistance. After his departure, the chaotic mix of guerrilla groups were left on their own to battle the Japanese and each other. While guerrilla leaders vied for local power, several obtained radios to contact MacArthur and his headquarters sent submarine-delivered agents with supplies and radios that tie these groups into a united framework. MacArthur’s promise to return kept the resistance alive and dependent on the United States. The repercussions for social revolution would be fatal but the Filipinos’ shared sacrifice revitalized national consciousness and created a sense of deserved nationhood. The guerrillas played a key role in enabling MacArthur’s return.

  • Trade and Crisis in the Making of Political Institutions
    GLOBALIZATION AND STATE DEVELOPMENT: TRADE AND CRISIS IN THE MAKING OF POLITICAL INSTITUTIONS A Dissertation Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of Cornell University In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy by Don R. Leonard January, 2014 © 2014 Don R. Leonard GLOBALIZATION AND STATE DEVELOPMENT: TRADE AND CRISIS IN THE MAKING OF POLITICAL INSTITUTIONS Don R. Leonard, Ph. D. Cornell University 2014 Political institutions have been shown to play a key role in determining economic outcomes. Where do these institutions come from, and how do they change over time? Examining the puzzle of institutional divergence on the island of Hispaniola, this dissertation identifies conditions under which international economic crises lead to the emergence of a developmental state. Haiti adjusted to the global economic crisis of the 1930s through rent-seeking policies that reinforced existing patterns of state predation and economic decay. Why, despite many similarities with Haiti including geography, regime type, and agro-export dependency, did the Dominican Republic pursue developmentalist policies of import substitution when adjusting to the same crisis— policies that transformed the economic purpose of state institutions and culminated in the fastest growing economy in Latin America over the second half of the twentieth century? Among non-industrialized countries I find that the costs of a prolonged foreign exchange crisis, and the import scarcities that ensue, are borne disproportionately by the middle classes. I also find that the ability of markets in non-industrialized countries to replace foreign imports with domestically produced substitutes is constrained by investment coordination problems.

  • Free Trade & Family Values: Kinship Networks and the Culture of Early
    Free Trade & Family Values: Kinship Networks and the Culture of Early American Capitalism Rachel Tamar Van Submitted in partial fulfillment of the Requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2011 © 2011 Rachel Tamar Van All Rights Reserved. ABSTRACT Free Trade & Family Values: Kinship Networks and the Culture of Early American Capitalism Rachel Tamar Van This study examines the international flow of ideas and goods in eighteenth and nineteenth century New England port towns through the experience of a Boston-based commercial network. It traces the evolution of the commercial network established by the intertwined Perkins, Forbes, and Sturgis families of Boston from its foundations in the Atlantic fur trade in the 1740s to the crises of succession in the early 1840s. The allied Perkins firms and families established one of the most successful American trading networks of the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries and as such it provides fertile ground for investigating mercantile strategies in early America. An analysis of the Perkins family’s commercial network yields three core insights. First, the Perkinses illuminate the ways in which American mercantile strategies shaped global capitalism. The strategies and practices of American merchants and mariners contributed to a growing international critique of mercantilist principles and chartered trading monopolies. While the Perkinses did not consider themselves “free traders,” British observers did. Their penchant for smuggling and seeking out niches of trade created by competing mercantilist trading companies meant that to critics of British mercantilist policies, American merchants had an unfair advantage that only the liberalization of trade policy could rectify.

Lumba A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy University of Washington 2013 Reading Committee Vicente L. Rafael, Chair Laurie J. Sears Moon-Ho Jung Program Authorized to Offer Degree: History University of Washington Abstract Monetary Authorities: Market Knowledge and Imperial Government in the Colonial Philippines, 1892 – 1942 By Allan E. Lumba Chair of the Supervisory Committee: Professor Vicente L. Rafael Department of History This dissertation argues that, from the twilight of the Spanish colonial era through the entire official American colonial insular period, the history of authority over money in the colonial Philippines reveals the emerging dominance of an authority based on knowledge of the market rather than an authority grounded strictly in sovereign power. The dominance of knowledge-based authority, especially through the first half of the twentieth century, was brought about by two specific historical changes: the positioning of the modern state as steward of the development of social life through capital and the increased intervention of the economic expert. Through close readings of multilingual archives relating to monetary, banking, and financial policies, my dissertation tracks how the legitimacy of imperial government became heavily dependent upon the colonial state’s capacity to manage and stabilize the monetary and financial system for the economic and social benefit of its subjects. Thus, despite the United States’ growing global economic hegemony, the American colonial state in the Philippines increasingly found itself beholden to the authority of the economic expert, an authority based on ! ""! its access to the seemingly natural laws of the market that both the state and the common public found illegible.

  • “Racism” and Colonialism: Meanings of Difference and Ruling Practices in America’S Pacific Empire
    P1: GCY Qualitative Sociology [quso] PH243-quas-477915 February 9, 2004 11:46 Style file version Nov 28th, 2002 Qualitative Sociology, Vol. 27, No. 1, Spring 2004 (C 2004) “Racism” and Colonialism: Meanings of Difference and Ruling Practices in America’s Pacific Empire Julian Go This article examines the meanings of “race” and difference in the first years of American colonialism in the Philippines, Guam, and Samoa. Moving beyond exist- ing sociological studies of “race” and “colonial discourse,”I demonstrate that the meanings of racial difference in the U.S. Pacific empire were contemporaneously polyvalent, constituting an overarching field of multiple rather than uniform classi- fications. The different meanings formed the basis for intra-imperial debate among colonizing agents. They also contributed to notable variations in forms of colonial governance and policy across the empire. The implication for future study is that “race” should best be apprehended as a “code” that takes on specific meanings and obtains its social force only in particular contexts of use and utterance.
