Rear Jan: The fine article written about you in the Newsweek by columnist George Hill did not go unnoticed on the Island of Haul. In fact, The Haul Hews, always your strong supporter, commented on the article in their editorial of January 7, 1981, showering most de:served praise on our Senator from Hawaii. The editorial, entitled "Democrat to Hatch" (enclosed) was written by Mrs. Nora Cooper who told me she believes George will is one of the best and most respected columist in Washington, D.C. and to earn such accolades from him is a great honor. Mrs. Cooper also said George Will is "one writer I like to emulate." And she was nice enough to give me a copy of the article before I received my Newsweek a few days later. Yesterday marked the first anniversary of the big storm in 1980. But looking at our weather over the last two weeks, we think 1981 won't be too bad.

Editorial A Democrat to watch None would call George F. Will anything but a seasoned Washington observer. He has seen them come and seen them go and he calls it pretty much the way it is. So when Senator Dan Inouye is tagged A Democrat to Watch, by this same special observer you can bet that Washington and the nation will be watching Will, who writes for The Washington Post and Newsweek, devoted a full column to our Senior Senator and the praise was fulsome, the respect evident in every line. Those of us who now the Democrat in question will know full well the praise and appreciation is well deserved. According to Will, "Inouye is less deminished by such subtraction than senators usually are. Perhaps because, as big men do, he measures himself against big men like Sam Rayburn. Or Perhaps because, years ago, in Franc and Italy, he acquired an antidote to vanity; earned pride" That is pretty heady stuff coming from a tough journalist. The whole piece is in the same tone. And it wraps up with a statement that is an astute reading on things to come . Inouye is the sort of man who can rehabilitate the Democratic Party. Republicans who see him as a thread, should. But they also should be thankful he is on hand; should remember that Democrats will govern again. The life of the nation is long, the life of an "era" is short.

    Richard Russell, the Senate Armed Services Committee & Oversight of America’S Defense, 1955-1968

    BALANCING CONSENSUS, CONSENT, AND COMPETENCE: RICHARD RUSSELL, THE SENATE ARMED SERVICES COMMITTEE & OVERSIGHT OF AMERICA’S DEFENSE, 1955-1968 DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Joshua E. Klimas, M.A. * * * * * The Ohio State University 2007 Dissertation Committee: Approved by Professor David Stebenne, Advisor Professor John Guilmartin Advisor Professor James Bartholomew History Graduate Program ABSTRACT This study examines Congress’s role in defense policy-making between 1955 and 1968, with particular focus on the Senate Armed Services Committee (SASC), its most prominent and influential members, and the evolving defense authorization process. The consensus view holds that, between World War II and the drawdown of the Vietnam War, the defense oversight committees showed acute deference to Defense Department legislative and budget requests. At the same time, they enforced closed oversight procedures that effectively blocked less “pro-defense” members from influencing the policy-making process. Although true at an aggregate level, this understanding is incomplete. It ignores the significant evolution to Armed Services Committee oversight practices that began in the latter half of 1950s, and it fails to adequately explore the motivations of the few members who decisively shaped the process. SASC chairman Richard Russell (D-GA) dominated Senate deliberations on defense policy. Relying only on input from a few key colleagues – particularly his protégé and eventual successor, John Stennis (D-MS) – Russell for the better part of two decades decided almost in isolation how the Senate would act to oversee the nation’s defense.

Kirkendall Pacific Northwest Quarterly 85:4 (Oct. 1994), p. 137­149 This Boeing bomber embodies the transition to jet aircraft and the dependence on military that characterized company operations during the years following World War II. (Special Collections, University of Washington Libraries, Negative #10703. Photo by Boeing Company) The years of Harry Truman's presidency were crucial to the success of the Boeing Airplane Company. The president himself did not have close ties with the firm or great confidence in air power, but one part of the American state­­ the air force­­recognized Boeing's ability to serve air force interests and was in a stronger position than ever before to pursue those interests. Furthermore, the company now had another ally willing to enter the political arena on its behalf. This was Seattle. The people there had a new commitment to Boeing. Taking advantage of cold war fears, air force leaders lobbied for funds to be spent on bombers, and Seattle people worked to draw that money to their city by way of Boeing. As a consequence of the successes of these two groups in the Truman years, the company acquired the resources it needed to become the world leader in building commercial jets. In battling for Boeing, Seattle participated in what President Dwight D. Eisenhower later called the "military­ industrial complex." A historian, Roger Lotchin, recently proposed "metropolitan­military complex" as a substitute for Eisenhower's term.

    CHAIRMEN of SENATE STANDING COMMITTEES [Table 5-3] 1789–Present

    CHAIRMEN OF SENATE STANDING COMMITTEES [Table 5-3] 1789–present INTRODUCTION The following is a list of chairmen of all standing Senate committees, as well as the chairmen of select and joint committees that were precursors to Senate committees. (Other special and select committees of the twentieth century appear in Table 5-4.) Current standing committees are highlighted in yellow. The names of chairmen were taken from the Congressional Directory from 1816–1991. Four standing committees were founded before 1816. They were the Joint Committee on ENROLLED BILLS (established 1789), the joint Committee on the LIBRARY (established 1806), the Committee to AUDIT AND CONTROL THE CONTINGENT EXPENSES OF THE SENATE (established 1807), and the Committee on ENGROSSED BILLS (established 1810). The names of the chairmen of these committees for the years before 1816 were taken from the Annals of Congress. This list also enumerates the dates of establishment and termination of each committee. These dates were taken from Walter Stubbs, Congressional Committees, 1789–1982: A Checklist (Westport, CT: Greenwood Press, 1985). There were eleven committees for which the dates of existence listed in Congressional Committees, 1789–1982 did not match the dates the committees were listed in the Congressional Directory. The committees are: ENGROSSED BILLS, ENROLLED BILLS, EXAMINE THE SEVERAL BRANCHES OF THE CIVIL SERVICE, Joint Committee on the LIBRARY OF CONGRESS, LIBRARY, PENSIONS, PUBLIC BUILDINGS AND GROUNDS, RETRENCHMENT, REVOLUTIONARY CLAIMS, ROADS AND CANALS, and the Select Committee to Revise the RULES of the Senate. For these committees, the dates are listed according to Congressional Committees, 1789– 1982, with a note next to the dates detailing the discrepancy.

    The Magnuson-Stevens Act a Bipartisan Legacy of Success

    The Magnuson-Stevens Act A Bipartisan Legacy of Success Since 1976, when what is now called the Magnuson-Stevens Fishery Conservation and Management Act (MSA) was first signed into law, Republicans and Democrats have agreed that conserving America’s ocean fish makes good economic and environmental sense. Today, Congress should continue this tradition of bipartisan support for the MSA and preserve its legacy of success by opposing any efforts to weaken the law. Over the years, Congress has recognized the value of protecting ocean fish resources from overfishing (taking fish faster than they can reproduce) by providing managers with the legal tools to sustainably manage our nation’s ocean fisheries. Through Photo: Associated Press multiple reauthorizations, Congress President George W.

  • From Exclusion to Inclusion

    From Exclusion to Inclusion

    From Exclusion to Inclusion 1941–1992 Around 9 :00 in the morning on April 21, 1945, Daniel K. Inouye, a 20-year-old army lieutenant from Honolulu, Hawaii, was shot in the stomach on the side of a mountain in northwestern Italy. The German bullet went clean out his back and missed his spine by a fraction of an inch. “It felt like someone punched me,” he remembered years later. “But the pain was almost non-existent. A little ache, that’s all and since the bleeding was not much I said well, I’ll keep on going.”1 Later that morning, Inouye, a pre-med student who had been getting ready for church when Japan bombed Pearl Harbor on December 7, 1941, was hit again. This time a rifle grenade nearly blew off his entire right arm. After picking up his tommy gun with his left hand, he continued to charge up the hill, firing at German soldiers as he went. Eventually shot in the leg, Inouye waited until his men seized control of the mountain before being evacuated.2 The war in Europe ended 17 days later. Inouye lived in military hospitals for the next two years to rebuild his strength and learn to do everyday tasks with one arm. The war forced him to adapt, and over the next two decades, the country he nearly died for began to adapt to the war’s consequences as well. For the most marginalized people—women and minorities, especially—World War II had profound implications for what it meant to be American.
