HARPER BOOKS FOR SPECIAL LIBRARIES April THE WAR ON MALNUTRITION AND POVERTY The Role of Consumer Cooperatives By J. Murray Luck, Professor of Biochemistry, Stanford University Never before has the record of research into poverty and malnutrition been set forth so compactly to show the need for higher levels of food consumption among under-privileged groups. Here for the first time is an explanation of the challenge of this serious need in relation to the opportunity of the consumer cooperative movement to make possible food consumption on an adequate nutritional basis. $2.10 THE ART OF PLAIN TALK By Rudolf Flesch, Autbor of "Markr of Readable Style" All who advocate simplicity and lucidity in written material win welcome this book. It is a plea for plain talk, a description of what plain talk means and a guide to simplifying one's style of writing. "NOW any author can pre-determine whether or not his writing is easy and pleasant to read. He can test his work against known requiremenu for any given audi- ences. The results should be startling."-Tide Magazine. $2.10 SUPERVISING PEOPLE By George D. Hslsey, Autbor of "Making and Using ladartrial Mre Ratings," etc. This timely, down-to-earth, specific discnssion is aimed directly at all supervisors-foremen in shops and mills, section heads in offices, assistant buyers and floor managers in retail stores. It covers the entire range of human relations effective in face-to-face supervision, enlivened and extended by a copious use of illustrative anecdotes. It is so written as to be equally useful for individual study or for group conference instruction. $3.00 PROFITABLE LABOR RELATIONS And How to Develop Them By Paul Mooney, Formerly General Manager, Public Relations and Personnel, Kroger Grocery &$ Baktng Conapany Out of long experience in the constructive handling of relations with workers on a11 personnel matters, the author offers in this book specific guidance and tested procedures for building better labor relations within industry.

    RICE UNIVERSITY YUGOSLAV-UNITED STATES RELATIONS, 1946-1947 STEMMING FROM THE SHOOTING OF U.S. PLANES OVER YUGOSLAVIA, AUGUST 9 AND 19, 1946 by Dorothy Elizabeth Wooldridge A THESIS SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF ARTS Thesis Director’s signature: Houston, Texas May 1971 Abstract YUGOSLAV-UNITED STATES RELATIONS, 1946-1947 STEMMING FROM THE SHOOTING OF U.S. PLANES OVER YUGOSLAVIA, AUGUST 9 AND 19, 1946 Dorothy Elizabeth Wooldridge From 1945 to 1950, the era of the early cold war, most of the nations of the world were in one of two political groups: the pro-West headed by the United States, or the pro-East, headed by Soviet Union. One country which did not fall into this pattern, however, was Yugo¬ slavia. She wanted to break completely with Moscow and to establish her own brand of national Communism, thus enabling her leaders to steer an individualist course in world affairs. Yugoslavia sought not only to free her¬ self from Soviet domination but also to show her total opposition to the Western Allies, especially the United States. The latter part of this objective became a unique area of conflict in the cold war. In 1945 Yugoslavia offered stiff opposition to Italian boundary settlements proposed by the Council of Foreign Ministers. Yugoslavia claimed the area of the Istrian peninsula, including the city of Trieste, as rightfully hers. While the diplomats discussed potential settlements, Yugoslav and Allied troops coexisted uneasily on the peninsula. Tension between the U.S. and Yugoslavia rapidly reached a breaking point.

  • White Sands Missile Range Is the Largest Overland Military Test Range in the United States, Occupying Some 3,200 Square Miles of Southern New Mexico
    Birthplace of America’s Missile and Space Activity White Sands Missile Range is the largest overland military test range in the United States, occupying some 3,200 square miles of southern New Mexico. With more than 60 years experience in rocket and weapons system test and development, it has earned the title “Birthplace of America’s Missile and Space Activity.” First known as White Sands Proving Ground (renamed White Sands Missile Range in 1958), this installation was established on July 9, 1945, as the place to test rocket technology emerging from World War II. A launch complex, now known as Launch Complex 33, was built in the desert sand dunes six miles east of the post. It featured a concrete blockhouse with 10-foot-thick walls and a 27- foot-thick roof. A WAC Corporal launch tower was also erected. A year later, a gantry was added. WAC Corporal The first rockets to blast off from the launch complex, the nation’s first large-scale launch facility, were WAC Corporals. Built by the fledging Jet Propulsion Laboratory, the 16-foot, 660- pound rockets were designed to carry a 25-pound weather package to an altitude of 20 miles. Since the WAC Corporal was under-powered, JPL engineers used a solid-fueled rocket booster dubbed “Tiny Tim” to get the rocket out of its launch tower and up to speed. The booster generated 50,000 pounds of thrust for a half second. By the time the WAC Corporal was out of the 100-foot tower it was going almost 275 mph.
