The dates, including day, month, and year, given with Senate and House documents and reports, are the dates on which they were ordered to be printed.

Documents entered in this catalogue that are for sale by the Superin- tendent of Documents, Washington, D. C., are indicated by a star (*) preceding the price named. A dagger (t) indicates that application should be made to the Department, Bureau, or Division issuing the document, a double dagger (t) Indicates that the document is not obtainable, and whenever addi- tional information concerning the method of procuring a document seems neces- sary it will be found under the name of the Bureau.

Do not order by Library of Congress card number. Read carefully the instructions “ How to remit,” found at the bottom of the next page. The accumulation of publications in this Office amounts to over a million, of which several hundred thousand are assorted, forming the sales stock. Many rare books are included, but under the law all must be sold “at cost,” re- gardless of their age or scarcity. In ordering, it should be borne in mind that many of the books have been in stock some time and are apt to be shop-worn. In filling orders, however, the best copy available is sent.

CUMULATIVE INDEX Beginning with July, 1912, the Index to the Monthly catalogue will be issued semiannually instead of quarterly, as heretofore, and will cumulate for the twelve months ending June, 1913. That is, the December number will be an Index to the Monthly catalogue for July to December, 1912, and the June num- ber will be the Index for the fiscal year 1913. Persons desiring to bind the catalogue at the end of the year should be careful to retain the numbers re- ceived monthly, as duplicate numbers can not be supplied.

  • Those Who Set the Stage to Understand the 1916 Rising and The
    3.0 Those who Set the Stage To understand the 1916 Rising and the motivation and points of view of the participants it is necessary to study the political, social, cultural and intellectual background. Most of the personalities reviewed in this section did not take part in the Rising - many of them were absolutely opposed - but all contributed directly or indirectly. Since the time of Parnell constitutional nationalists aimed at securing Home Rule, that is, a limited measure of self-government to be exercised through a parliament in Dublin. Following the general elections of 1910, the nationalist Irish Parliamentary Party led by John Redmond held the balance of power in the House of Commons, a position which enabled them to force Asquith’s Liberal government to address the issue of Home Rule for Ireland. The House of Lords was implacably opposed, but their power of veto over legislation was drastically curbed by the Parliament Act (1911). Faced with the prospect of Home Rule and an Irish parliament in which they would be outnumbered by Catholic nationalists, the Protestant Ulster unionists, led by Sir Edward Carson and James Craig, reacted strongly. In September 1912, over 200,000 men signed the Solemn League and Covenant pledging resistance to Home Rule. The following January, the Ulster Volunteer Force (UVF) was established, a quota of 100,000 signatories of the Covenant soon being enrolled. In effect, the unionists established a private army to oppose the enactment or implementation of Home Rule - drilling was allowed provided it was authorised by two magistrates. 1 3.0 Those who set the stage When the government attempted to take action, fifty-eight senior army officers at army headquarters at the Curragh, Co.

  • The Twelfth Decade
    1911-1920 The Twelfth Decade Overview The twelfth decade was one of several significant developments and events. After 82 years as a Village, Batavia became a City. Batavia came to have its first City Hall. The police department for the first time had its own building. Also for the first time, there were full-time paid firemen. The community finally had a sewer system and sewage treatment plant. The municipal water system was upgraded and a water filtration plant added. And, as was the case with other cities across the Country, Batavia felt the impact of World War I. Batavia’s population continued to grow rapidly. The number of residents reached 13,541 in 1920 (“Genesee County Information,” Richmond Memorial Library, online, accessed 3 January 2014). This was an increase of 1,928 individuals since 1910. In the view of the author, this decade may be regarded as Batavia’s “golden age.” Main Street still had most of its mansions. A large number of the major manufacturing concerns that defined Batavia were in place. The housing in the City was still mainly single-family homes. Retail activity was almost entirely in a centralized “downtown.” A trolley ran the length of Main Street and the Tonawanda Creek was a major recreational attraction that drew crowds on summer weekends. 1: Infrastructure As indicated in the last chapter, work on constructing sewers began in December of 1909. The layout resulted in all of the sewage being conveyed to a central station at the Municipal Building at 3 West Main Street. As of July in 1911, the work on the sewers was well along.

  • Microfilm Publication M617, Returns from U.S
    Publication Number: M-617 Publication Title: Returns from U.S. Military Posts, 1800-1916 Date Published: 1968 RETURNS FROM U.S. MILITARY POSTS, 1800-1916 On the 1550 rolls of this microfilm publication, M617, are reproduced returns from U.S. military posts from the early 1800's to 1916, with a few returns extending through 1917. Most of the returns are part of Record Group 94, Records of the Adjutant General's Office; the remainder is part of Record Group 393, Records of United States Army Continental Commands, 1821-1920, and Record Group 395, Records of United States Army Overseas Operations and Commands, 1898-1942. The commanding officer of every post, as well ad commanders of all other bodies of troops such as department, division, brigade, regiment, or detachment, was required by Army Regulations to submit a return (a type of personnel report) to The Adjutant General at specified intervals, usually monthly, on forms provided by that office. Several additions and modifications were made in the form over the years, but basically it was designed to show the units that were stationed at a particular post and their strength, the names and duties of the officers, the number of officers present and absent, a listing of official communications received, and a record of events. In the early 19th century the form used for the post return usually was the same as the one used for regimental or organizational returns. Printed forms were issued by the Adjutant General’s Office, but more commonly used were manuscript forms patterned after the printed forms.
