Johnson, Special Message to the Congress on Housing and Community Development, January 27th, 1964. Introduction The final years of the Lyndon Johnson’s Great Society administration were anything but quiet. Punctuated by riots and assassinations, events seemed to bring America to the brink of chaos. In the midst of national anxieties over the Viet Nam war, civil rights, riots, and the rising cost of living, LBJ brought his housing and urban policy to a rousing crescendo. In 1968, the year Johnson withdrew from the presidential race and seemingly rendered himself the lamest of lame ducks, this master of passing legislation nonetheless managed to achieve two mammoth housing laws. The first, a part of the Civil Rights Act of 1968, which Johnson signed in April of that year in the aftermath of the slaying of Dr.

  • The Honorable Hubert H. Humphrey United States Senate Washington, D
    I The University of Chicago Chicago 37, Illinois August 2, 1955 The Honorable Hubert H. Humphrey United States Senate Washington, D. C. Dear Senator Humphrey: You asked me what function I thought the Subcommittee on Dis­ armament of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee might fulfill in the short period of time and with the limited means available between now and the first of January, and you suggested that I put my thoughts on paper. The main issue as far as substance is concerned, it seems to me, can be phrased as follows: 11 What kind and what degree of disarmament is desirable within the framework of what political settlement?" It seems to me that one would only add to the already existing confusion if disarma­ ment were discussed without stating clearly what is being assumed concern­ ing the political settlement within which it would have to operate. I assume that few Senators will be available between the im­ pending adjournment of Congress and the first of January, and thusthe ques­ tion is what could be accomplished by a competent staff. I believe such a staff could hold conferences of the fol_lowing sort: Men like Walter Lippman, George Kennan, and perhaps five to ten others who in the past have written on one aspect of the problem or another, would be asked to prepare their thoughts on the "whole problem" and to tell to a critical audience, assembled by the staff, what they would regard as a desirable settlement. They must imagine that somehow they are endowed with such magical power of persuasion that they could convince the

Jack Brooks, Chairmen, House Committee on Government Operations; by Elmer B. Staa;.s, Comptroller General. Issue Area: Energy (1600); Transportation Systems and Policies (2400). Contact: Energy and Minerais Div. Budget Function: Natural Resources, Environment, and Energy: Energy (305); Commerce and Transportation: Ground Transportation (404). Congressional Relevance: House Committee on Government Operations. Authority: Naticnal Energy Act; H.R. 6831 (95th Cong.). Comments on two sections of the proposed "National Energy Act" (H.R. 6831) dealing with national energy goals and Federal vanpooling were requested. Findings/Conclusions: Based on the Administration's own estimates, with few exceptions, the plan will fall short of its oals, even if fully implemented. The conservation provision of the plan will not much reduce energj demand, nor significantly stimulate domestic energy production. The most significant items in terms of energy impact are the oil and gas pricing actions an the oil and gas users' tax. The effect of the pricing provision would be to transfer a large amount of oil use to natural gas, and the users' tax would shift large amounts of industrial oil and gas use to coal. Natural gas would be shifted from industry to residential/commercial use, The largest impact will be the residential conservation tax credit coupled with the utility insulati- service program. Voluntary actions in the residential sector wi..l be hard to achieve and sustain. Vanpooling seems to be desirable, but could be more effective if extended beyond Federal vehicles to the private sector.

  • Adlai E. Stevenson, "A New America," Acceptance Address at the Democratic National Convention (17 August 1956)
    Voices of Democracy 3 (2008): 182‐204 Barney 182 ADLAI E. STEVENSON, "A NEW AMERICA," ACCEPTANCE ADDRESS AT THE DEMOCRATIC NATIONAL CONVENTION (17 AUGUST 1956) Timothy Barney University of Maryland Abstract: While Adlai Stevenson's "New America" address at the 1956 Democratic National Convention symbolized his presidential campaign's failure, the ideas of the speech would serve as a bridge between the New Deal and the Democrats of the 1960s. To construct his vision of America’s future, Stevenson followed a jeremiadic framework, as he argued for greater moral responsibility on behalf of the American people to use their prosperity for public virtue. Key Words: Adlai Stevenson, Democratic Party, New America, jeremiad, Cold War, presidential campaigns, national conventions Adlai Stevenson's most famous quip may have been his declaration of solidarity with his fellow intellectuals: "Eggheads of the world unite, lest we lose our yolks!"1 Not only does this betray the statesman's legendary self‐deprecation but it also contains a playfully defensive look at his own legacy. The stigma of being labeled as an "intellectual" has been problematic for many an American public figure, but perhaps the "egghead" tag has never been associated more devastatingly with one individual than it was with Adlai Stevenson. At the time of his ascent into the public consciousness, this was a stinging epithet, which Stevenson accepted with trademark wit and humility. Over time, "eggheadism" became a lovable part of Stevenson's rumpled charm, which the Democratic Party would appropriate into its lore, if not its public image. Adlai Stevenson became an archaic ideal for the Party, a stumping preacher with sleeves rolled up, laboring for the cause, and seemingly from an era long past.
