  • DISSERTATION Presented to the Graduate Council of the North
    4Z SAM RAYBURN: TRIALS OF A PARTY MAN DISSERTATION Presented to the Graduate Council of the North Texas State University in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements For the Degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY By Edward 0. Daniel, B.A., M.A. Denton, Texas May, 1979 Daniel, Edward 0., Sam Rayburn: Trials of a Party Man. Doctor of Philosophy (History), May, 1979, 330 pp., bibliog- raphy, 163 titles. Sam Rayburn' s remarkable legislative career is exten- sively documented, but no one has endeavored to write a political biography in which his philosophy, his personal convictions, and the forces which motivated him are analyzed. The object of this dissertation is to fill that void by tracing the course of events which led Sam Rayburn to the Speakership of the United States House of Representatives. For twenty-seven long years of congressional service, Sam Rayburn patiently, but persistently, laid the groundwork for his elevation to the speakership. Most of his accomplish- ments, recorded in this paper, were a means to that end. His legislative achievements for the New Deal were monu- mental, particularly in the areas of securities regulation, progressive labor laws, and military preparedness. Rayburn rose to the speakership, however, not because he was a policy maker, but because he was a policy expeditor. He took his orders from those who had the power to enhance his own station in life. Prior to the presidential election of 1932, the center of Sam Rayburn's universe was an old friend and accomplished political maneuverer, John Nance Garner. It was through Garner that Rayburn first perceived the significance of the "you scratch my back, I'll scratch yours" style of politics.

  • The Fusion of Hamiltonian and Jeffersonian Thought in the Republican Party of the 1920S
    © Copyright by Dan Ballentyne 2014 ALL RIGHTS RESERVED This work is dedicated to my grandfather, Raymond E. Hough, who support and nurturing from an early age made this work possible. Also to my wife, Patricia, whose love and support got me to the finish line. ii REPUBLICANISM RECAST: THE FUSION OF HAMILTONIAN AND JEFFERSONIAN THOUGHT IN THE REPUBLICAN PARTY OF THE 1920S BY Dan Ballentyne The current paradigm of dividing American political history into early and modern periods and organized based on "liberal" and "conservative" parties does not adequately explain the complexity of American politics and American political ideology. This structure has resulted of creating an artificial separation between the two periods and the reading backward of modern definitions of liberal and conservative back on the past. Doing so often results in obscuring means and ends as well as the true nature of political ideology in American history. Instead of two primary ideologies in American history, there are three: Hamiltonianism, Jeffersonianism, and Progressivism. The first two originated in the debates of the Early Republic and were the primary political division of the nineteenth century. Progressivism arose to deal with the new social problems resulting from industrialization and challenged the political and social order established resulting from the Hamiltonian and Jeffersonian debate. By 1920, Progressivism had become a major force in American politics, most recently in the Democratic administration of Woodrow Wilson. In the light of this new political movement, that sought to use state power not to promote business, but to regulate it and provide social relief, conservative Hamiltonian Republicans increasingly began using Jeffersonian ideas and rhetoric in opposition to Progressive policy initiatives.

  • Congress and Lawmaking 3
    CHAPTER Congress and 1 Lawmaking ONGRESSIONAL RULES and procedures are a complex mix of intricate Cfeatures that can be used to expedite, slow down, or stop action on legislation. Adroit lawmakers may influence how expeditiously legisla- tion moves through Congress, but in doing so, they must navigate around procedural obstacles. This legislative reality typically means that measures move slowly through the congressional maze, or sometimes not at all. At times, members can employ parliamentary procedures to bypass lawmak- ing stages to accelerate even controversial measures through the usually slow-moving Congress. Crises may inspire swift legislative action as well, a classic example being the Depression-era emergencydistribute banking bill sent to Congress on March 9, 1933, by President Franklin D. Roosevelt. It passed both chambers in a matter of hours and was signedor into law that same day.1 Fast-forward to fall 2008, which witnessed the collapse of banking giants, the housing market, and Wall Street brokerage firms. In a 10-year anni- versary analysis of the economic implosion, a congressional scholar wrote that “the nation’s economy hovered perilously on the edge of an abyss.” Congress acted with dispatch, saidpost, the scholar, and “prevented a second Great Depression.”2 For example, Congress moved rapidly (January 26 to February 17, 2009) to enact the president’s nearly $800 billion economic stimulus package, bypassing committee consideration of the legislation (H.R. 1) in both chambers.3 Too much haste in passing major legislation can sometimes have pro- found and unforeseencopy, implications. Two classic examples highlight the dangers of insufficient deliberation by lawmakers and legislative speedi- ness, especially in granting the president the equivalent of a declaration of war.not In early August 1964, President Lyndon B.

  • From World Power Conference to World Energy Council
    FROM WORLD POWER CONFERENCE TO WORLD ENERGY COUNCIL 90 YEARS OF ENERGY COOPERATION, 1923-2013 REBECCA WRIGHT HIROKI SHIN FRANK TRENTMANN 2 Published by the World Energy Council, 2013 Regency House, 1-4 Warwick Street London W1B 5LT, United Kingdom ISBN 978 0 946121 31 1 © 2013 World Energy Council and the authors All rights reserved. 3 FOREWORD When playing with the idea to refresh WEC’s history, four thoughts really kept the wheel spinning. First, energy has been a defining driver of the industrial history of humanity. The World Energy Council as it is now known, has existed since the early ages of electrification, is older than the UN, and has been the social network of energy thought leaders during its entire existence seeded in 1923. Then, we define ourselves often through our actions and our network but it is by studying our history that we learn who we truly are. Or, as Cicero wrote: “Our background and circumstances may have influenced who we are, but we are responsible for who we become.” [Cicero, Rome (106-43 B.C.)] I do believe that WEC or any institution can only be strong and fulfil its mission if we know and understand our identity. Third, since the assumption of my role of Secretary General over four years ago, I have been privileged to meet many wonderful WEC personalities who are part of the recent history of their own countries, through their work as energy thought leaders, business executives or government ministers. Missing out on the opportunity to give these leaders a voice in WEC’s history would simply be a loss.
