The first floor leaders were formally designated in 1920 (Democrats) and 1925 (Republicans). The Senate Republican and Democratic floor leaders are elected by the members of their party in the Senate at the beginning of each Congress. Depending on which party is in power, one serves as majority leader and the other as minority leader. The leaders serve as spokespersons for their parties' positions on issues. The majority leader schedules the daily legislative program and fashions the unanimous consent agreements that govern the time for debate. The majority leader has the right to be called upon first if several senators are seeking recognition by the presiding officer, which enables him to offer motions or amendments before any other senator. Majority and Minority Leaders Elected at the beginning of each Congress by members of their respective party conferences to represent them on the Senate floor, the majority and minority leaders serve as spokesmen for their parties' positions on the issues. The majority leader has also come to speak for the Senate as an institution. Working with the committee chairs and ranking members, the majority leader schedules business on the floor by calling bills from the calendar and keeps members of his party advised about the daily legislative program. -

Wedge-Issue Dynamics and Party Position Shifts: Chinese Exclusion
Article Party Politics 17(6) 823–847 Wedge-issue dynamics ª The Author(s) 2010 Reprints and permission: sagepub.co.uk/journalsPermissions.nav and party position shifts: DOI: 10.1177/1354068810376184 Chinese exclusion ppq.sagepub.com debates in the post-Reconstruction US Congress, 1879–1882 Jungkun Seo University of North Carolina, Wilmington, USA Abstract Even when the stakes of party-building are high, political parties often find their members divided over a key policy position. In post-Reconstruction America, the hot-button issue of excluding Chinese immigrant workers strengthened Democratic cohesion while splitting the ‘party of Lincoln’. Previous research has not completely investigated the role of party competition and cohesiveness in paving the way for passage of the Chinese exclusion laws. In this investigation of the legislative politics of banning the Chinese from 1879 to 1882, it is found that cross-pressured members sometimes facilitate party transformation. The evidence demonstrates that partisan responses to potential wedge issues are a previously unnoticed source of explanation of eventual party position changes. Keywords Chinese exclusion laws, party position change, rank-and-file members, wedge issue Paper submitted 4 June 2009; accepted for publication 15 September 2009 Corresponding author: Jungkun Seo, Department of Public and International Affairs, University of North Carolina, Wilmington, NC 28403, USA.

Brady: Anson Burlingame: Diplomat, Orator FORUM ANSON BURLINGAME: DIPLOMAT, ORATOR Tim Brady Like a previous article titled "Cross-Cultural Underpinnings of the Taiping Rebellion: Potential Modem Applications" (Brady, 1993), this article too is somewhat out of step with the mainstream of information normally presented in JAAER, but in this author's opinion it is an important deviation. Why? Because it looks into the essential character of an important civilization that we know very little about, the Chinese, and it provides a glimpse of what happened in the past when our two cultures came into significant contact. The relevance of this paper to aviation is that it posts warning signs as to what can happen if we are not properly prepared to deal with that great civilization on terms that are mutually beneficial. As reported in Aviation Week and Space Technology, China is expected to have the highest growth in air traffic of all Asian countries in the firsthalf of the next decade (Mecham, 1993). -

rvo. 65. eommontomtij of iHaosactjttsettfi. House of Representatives, The Joint Special Committee, to whom was referred the sev- eral messages of his Excellency the Governor, in relation to the treatment of the Hon. Samuel Hoar, in South Carolina, and the Hon. Henry Hubbard, in Louisiana, and also an order of the House of Representatives of March 18, 1845,—have had the several subjects under consideration, and ask leave to pre- sent the annexed Report and Resolves. For the Committee, JOSEPH BELL. ■> SOUTH CAROLINA—LOUISIANA. [March, ftommontoealtfi cf JHassacijUßctts. REPORT. The Committee have already presented a full report on the treatment of the Hon. Samuel Hoar, in South Carolina; to this, on that subject, they have nothing to add. When that report was presented, official information had not been transmitted to the Committee, of the result of the mission of the Hon. Henry Hubbard to Louisiana. This has now been presented to and considered by the Committee. The subject of controversy referred to in the message of his Excellency the Governor, between Massachusetts and her sis- ter States of Louisiana and South Carolina, demand and must receive the profound consideration of every state in the Union. Massachusetts is not alone interested in this matter. It deeply and vitally concerns the whole Union, and all its parts. The claim of Massachusetts is simply that her citizens may have secured to them the personal and commercial rights guar- anteed to them by the Constitution and laws of the nation, while pursuing their lawful callings in the other slates of the Union. These rights, Louisiana and South Carolina deny to a certain description of the citizens of Massachusetts, not on account of crime charged, or proved, or committed, but simply and solely on account of origin, race and color. -
School Desegregation in the North: Eight Comparative Case Studies of Commnity Structur and Policy Making
SCHOOL DESEGREGATION IN THE NORTH: EIGHT COMPARATIVE CASE STUDIES OF COMMNITY STRUCTUR AND POLICY MAKING Robert L. Crain With Assistance of Morton Inger Gerald A. McWorter James J. Vanecko This research was supported by the Office of Education Department of Health , Education , arid Welfare, Project No. 5-0641-2.12- NATIONAL OPINION RESEARCH CENTER University of Chicago 5720 South Woodlawn Avenue Chicago, Illinois 60637 Report No. llO. April, 1966 ACKNOWLEDGMENTS A study such as this owes a huge debt to the two hundred persons who permitted us to interview them and who gracious ly made their files available to us. We are especially conscious of the sacrifices these men made since they were all very busy men and women--school board members , school admin- istrators , public officials , newspapermen , heads of civil rights groups. number of them gave us confidential documents , permitted us to borrow their personal files , and helped us locate other documents which we needed. They spent as long as eight hours in interviews with us. We remember several of these persons as especially helpful , considerate, or insightful; but we have decided not to attempt to thank any of these persons by name here. To thank one or two would be an insult to twenty others who also went out of their way for us; and to thank twenty would be an improper recognition of our debt to a hundred more. We will no doubt disappoint many of these respondents, who were hope- ful that we would present a series of recommendations which they could make use of; but as responsible social scientists we are convinced that our duty is to report facts and possible sociological explanations of these facts and let those who are qualified by experience or training develop specific proposals from this. -
