Inventory of the John M. SPC.2015.005 2 Weatherwax Collection SPC.2015.005 Processing Information Processed by Kendall Hinesley in 2015. Additonal processing took place in 2018 and 2021. Separated Materials Copies of books by Weatherwax including: The Founders of Los Angeles The Prophets, The Man Who Stole a Continent, The African Contribution, and The Efficent Life have been cataloged and shelved seperately. Oversized material has been removed and placed into Map Case 4, Drawer 5. Related Materials While it is not clear what happened to Jacks files, it is clear that they were dispersed far and wide. The main bulk of Jack's papers are now at CSU Dominguez Hills. Layout materials for his pamphlets came with the Ligon Aquarian Bookstore Collection. The bulk of materials including correspondence and manuscripts were purchased. After 2016 a good deal of Jack's papers were available through antiquarian booksellers. The papers relating to Frieda Kahlo and Diego Rivera were donated to the Archives of American Art by Seema. Another segment of the Rivera episode was sold to the Newberry Library in Chicago. See also "A Collaboration: Diego Rivera, John Weatherwax, and the Popol Vuh," by Lucretia Hoover Giese in the Archives of American Art Journal. Vol. 39, No. 3/4 (1999), pp. 2-10 (9 pages) Published by: The University of Chicago Press on behalf of The Archives of American Art, Smithsonian Institution. The important materials saved by Seema including her photographs are located at Stanford University and the University of California, Santa Cruz. The Idella Purnell Collection at University of Texas, Austin hold materials relating to Jack and Idella. According to Seema's biography the Paul Robeson Center may have housed Jack's collection of African American books and portfolios at some point. Currently there are several collections at CSUDH relating to Weatherwax that were purchased at different times, but at one time were together in the file the Weatherwax's left in Los Angeles. Those collections include: Alfred and Bernice Ligon Aquarian Collection Anti-New Deal Collection (possibly collected by Weatherwax) Biographical / Historical John Martin "Jack" Weatherwax- a writer and political activist was born on July 18, 1900 in Aberdeen, Washington. He died on January 18, 1985 in Santa Cruz, California just a few weeks after moving from Los Angeles, California where he had resided since the 1930s. He was the son of Dora Mabel Bryant (1871-1954) and Clyde Benjamin Weatherwax (1865-1917). At the time of Weatherwax's birth, Aberdeen in Grays Harbor County, which has been referred to as the Gateway to the Olympic Peninsula, was a center of the lumber industry with a large number of lumber mills. During Weatherwax's youth, the Grays Harbor area was also a hotbed for labor unrest and the home of a large contingent of the I.W.W. union also known as Wobblies. Nearby Centralia was the site of the Centralia massacre in which six people died when the Wobblies engaged American Legionnaires. This connection to labor unrest in the lumber industry also led to a creative spark. During the 1930s, several novels (lumped together as "proletarian" novels) were generated by folks who had grown up in and worked around the lumber industry around Aberdeen/Grays Harbor. In addition to the prominent writer Robert Cantwell ( Laugh and Lie Down, The Land of Plenty), Louis Colman ( Lumber!) and Clara Weatherwax ( Marching! Marching!) wrote novels focused on the lumber industry near Aberdeen between 1931 and 1935. Clara was John M. Weatherwax's sister and co-author with John of a few children's books. Cantwell and Clara Weatherwax attended the same high school, which was named after Clara and Jack's grandfather, the J.M. Weatherwax High School. A review of Marching! Marching! in the February 1936 edition of the New Republic gave Cantwell the opportunity to muse about the literary output of his hometown. The novel was awarded a prize as the best American novel on a proletarian theme in a contest sponsored by the John Day Publishing Company and New Masses. Jack Weatherwax would also try his hand at documenting the Lumber Industry in Aberdeen with a series of screen treatments entitled "Skidroad," "Timber Pirate," and "Three-Star Marshall". According to the book On The Harbor edited by John C. Hughes and Ryan Teague Beckwith, J.M. Weatherwax (1826-1896) was a Grays Harbor pioneer who led his family from Michigan and who opened the area's third lumber mill in 1886. Sources vary on how much wealth the Weatherwax Family generated in the last two decades of the 19th century, but they consistently point out they lost a lot of that wealth. The lumber mill was no longer owned by the family by the late 1890s. In turn the J.M. Weatherwax High School opened in 1908.

Positively, he aspired to recover the sort of “theological exegesis” of Scrip- earlier difference between Luther and ture exemplified by Luther and Calvin in the sixteenth century. Calvin. Distinctively twentieth-century Protestant theology thus began with Barth’s critique of one approach to biblical exegesis coupled with his call for retrieval of another approach. Both critique and mann perceived an inconsistency in Barth’s practice, since Barth retrieval stood in the service of his overriding concern to make had opened the door to Sachkritik in his Romans commentary the Bible central again to the preaching and theology of his own (even if he himself refused to walk through it, a point to which day much as it had been to that of the Reformers.

  • ABSTRACT Title of Document: from the BELLY of the HUAC: the RED PROBES of HOLLYWOOD, 1947-1952 Jack D. Meeks, Doctor of Philos
    ABSTRACT Title of Document: FROM THE BELLY OF THE HUAC: THE RED PROBES OF HOLLYWOOD, 1947-1952 Jack D. Meeks, Doctor of Philosophy, 2009 Directed By: Dr. Maurine Beasley, Journalism The House Un-American Activities Committee, popularly known as the HUAC, conducted two investigations of the movie industry, in 1947 and again in 1951-1952. The goal was to determine the extent of communist infiltration in Hollywood and whether communist propaganda had made it into American movies. The spotlight that the HUAC shone on Tinsel Town led to the blacklisting of approximately 300 Hollywood professionals. This, along with the HUAC’s insistence that witnesses testifying under oath identify others that they knew to be communists, contributed to the Committee’s notoriety. Until now, historians have concentrated on offering accounts of the HUAC’s practice of naming names, its scrutiny of movies for propaganda, and its intervention in Hollywood union disputes. The HUAC’s sealed files were first opened to scholars in 2001. This study is the first to draw extensively on these newly available documents in an effort to reevaluate the HUAC’s Hollywood probes. This study assesses four areas in which the new evidence indicates significant, fresh findings. First, a detailed analysis of the Committee’s investigatory methods reveals that most of the HUAC’s information came from a careful, on-going analysis of the communist press, rather than techniques such as surveillance, wiretaps and other cloak and dagger activities. Second, the evidence shows the crucial role played by two brothers, both German communists living as refugees in America during World War II, in motivating the Committee to launch its first Hollywood probe.

Massachusetts, under Act of Congress of July 16, 1894. SERIES 7 NUMBER 6 WELLESLEY COLLEGE ANNUAL EEPOKTS PBESIDENT AND TREASURER 1916-1918 PRESIDENT'S ANNUAL REPORT To the Board of Trustees of Wellesley College:— I have the honor to present in one the report of the two years from July 1, 1916, to June 30, 1918. Heretofore the annual reports of the President and Treasurer due June 30 have been published in the following March. It was decided to publish these hereafter in December. To avoid publishing two reports in the 1918 series, the report for 1916-17 was de- layed, and is here combined with that for 1917-18. The sup- plementary reports of the Dean, the Librarian, and the Chair- man of the Committee on Graduate Instruction will also cover two years. These two years have brought many losses to the College. On February 12, 1917, Pauline Adeline Durant, the widow of the founder of the College, died at her home in Wellesley. Mrs. Durant gave the heartiest co-operation to Mr. Durant's plan for founding the College, and throughout his life assisted him in every way. After his death in October, 1881, she accepted the care of the College as a sacred trust from her husband, and gave to it thought, time, and money. Mrs. Durant had been an invalid confined to her home for more than three years before her death, but until these later years no meeting of the Board of Trustees nor any college function was complete without her presence.

  • ITALIANS in the UNITED STATES DURING WORLD WAR II Mary
    LAW, SECURITY, AND ETHNIC PROFILING: ITALIANS IN THE UNITED STATES DURING WORLD WAR II Mary Elizabeth Basile Chopas A dissertation submitted to the faculty at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of History. Chapel Hill 2013 Approved by: Wayne E. Lee Richard H. Kohn Eric L. Muller Zaragosa Vargas Heather Williams ©2013 Mary Elizabeth Basile Chopas ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT Mary Elizabeth Basile Chopas: Law, Security, and Ethnic Profiling: Italians in the United States During World War II (under the direction of Wayne E. Lee) The story of internment and other restrictions during World War II is about how the U.S. government categorized persons within the United States from belligerent nations based on citizenship and race and thereby made assumptions about their loyalty and the national security risk that they presented. This dissertation examines how agencies of the federal government interacted to create and enact various restrictions on close to 700,000 Italian aliens residing in the United States, including internment for certain individuals, and how and why those policies changed during the course of the war. Against the backdrop of wartime emergency, federal decision makers created policies of ethnic-based criteria in response to national security fears, but an analysis of the political maturity of Italian Americans and their assimilation into American society by World War II helps explain their community’s ability to avoid mass evacuation and internment. Based on the internment case files for 343 individuals, this dissertation provides the first social profile of the Italian civilian internees and explains the apparent basis for the government’s identification of certain aliens as “dangerous,” such as predilections for loyalty to Italy and Fascist beliefs, as opposed to the respectful demeanor and appreciation of American democracy characterizing potentially good citizens.

  • Background Guide for Elaboration on This System and Its History
    1 Note from the Crisis Director Hello delegates! My name is Amelia Benich and I’ll be your CD for FCMUN. I am ecstatic to finally get to run this JCC and I hope you are as excited as I am. This is my final FCMUN as I graduate in May and I am determined to make it the best crisis committee to ever be run...or close. I have done Model UN every year I have been in college and have been in so many crisis committees as a delegate I recently had to be reminded of all of them. With this experience both as a delegate and having run 3 committees before both at FCMUN and abroad at LSE’s conference, I can assure you I’ve seen it all and am preparing to stop the common committee frustrations before they begin. As you prepare for the conference, I want you to be fully aware of the parameters of our note system before you plan out a crisis arc. Electronic notes will speed things up, however for this committee to keep things running smoothly, there will be an approximate word limit for notes. Try to keep all notes around 250 words or less (about two paragraphs/a page double spaced), and expect each committee session to get approximately 3 notes answered, meaning your crisis arc should be accomplished in 12-15 notes, assuming notes get shorter and more direct towards the end. Of course, I will do my best to answer faster and get more notes through, but this is to help you both plan effectively and also stay engaged in-room as well.

  • The Creation of Identity in the Radicial Plays of Langston Hughes
    BLACK OR RED?: THE CREATION OF IDENTITY IN THE RADICIAL PLAYS OF LANGSTON HUGHES A dissertation submitted by Catherine Ann Peckinpaugh Vrtis In partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Drama TUFTS UNIVERISITY May, 2017 ADVISOR: Downing Cless © 2017, Catherine Vrtis i ABSTRACT Langston Hughes, despite his reputation as the measure of an “authentic” black identity in art, was self-consciously performative in his creation of self through his writing. While this is hidden in most of his work due to his mastery of the tropes of “writing race,” the constructed nature of his public personae is revealed through his profound shift of artistic position, from primarily racially focused to primarily class oriented and Communist aligned, during the decade of the 1930s. As demonstrated by his radical works, Hughes’ professional identities were shaped by competing needs: to represent his sincere political beliefs and to answer the desires of his audiences. As he supported himself exclusively through his writing, Hughes could not risk alienating his publishers, but he was also not willing to support any ideology for profit. His radical plays, more so than his other Red writing, track Hughes’ negotiation of this tension during his Communist years. Hughes already had sympathies with the Communist cause when he broke with his patron, Charlotte Mason, at the beginning of the Great Depression, and instability of the period only deepened his radicalism. Freed from her expectations and in need of an audience, Hughes sharply shifted his public and artistic persona, downplaying his “Negro Poet Laureate” identity to promote his new Red one.

  • The Roots of Post-Racial Neoliberalism in Blacklist Era Hollywood
    The Roots of Post-Racial Neoliberalism in Blacklist Era Hollywood A Dissertation SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF UNIVERSITY OF MINNESOTA BY Andrew Paul IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Lary May, Tracey Deutsch March 2014 © Andrew Paul 2014 Acknowledgements Writing this dissertation would not have been possible without the support of countless others. First, I acknowledge the generosity of my dissertation committee. My advisors, Lary May and Tracey Deutsch offered enthusiastic guidance, criticism, and support. Lary’s own contributions to the historiography of the blacklist were second in value only to his personal attention to my work, and his questions yielded important research leads. Tracey helped me to think across sub-fields and pushed me to improve my writing. Both of them encouraged me to take intellectual risks and to make bold claims and interventions. Elaine Tyler May, Riv-Ellen Prell, and Malinda Lindquist all shaped my development as a scholar as well. With thoughtful and critical attention to my writing, they challenged me to clarify my ideas and helped me to see how my work was entering different conversations, and how it might stand to enter others. It was a privilege to be able to discuss my ideas with this committee. I was awarded generous financial sums from the University of Minnesota’s Harold Leonard Memorial Film Studies Fellowship and the University of Minnesota Foundation, which allowed me travel to archives in California, Wisconsin, and New York. In these locales, at the Charles Young Research Library at the University of California Los Angeles, the Margaret Herrick Library and the Paley Center for Media, both located in Beverly Hills, the Wisconsin State Historical Society in Madison, and at the Center for Jewish History in New York City, numerous archivists assisted me in my work., and for this I owe them my gratitude.
