Organization shortly after Town Meeting comprised the same setup as in recent years—Mr. Nickerson, Chairman; Mr. Eldridge, Clerk; Mr. Davidson, Supervisor of Relief. In our report for 1949 we were able to state that the Town activities, growth, etc., show the same increase practi- cally as reported the previous year. This holds true .for our report for 1950, but we are sorry to say that from our recent observations and travelling around town assessing new prop- erty, and so on, that the building development has practi- cally ceased. We do not wish to be pessimistic, but we may as well face the facts. This means that it behooves us to be very careful and economical during the coming year. The Finance Committee feel this way and the Board of Selectmen surely do also. ROADS AND COMMON LANDINGS. Roads and Com- mon Landings were laid out in 1950 to the large total of thirteen. This year we are only petitioning for four roads and one common landing. SANITATION AND DUMPING GROUNDS. This im- portant work has shown an increase and growth in the past two or three years which is really remarkable. But we are glad to say that the public apparently realizes the impor- tance of patronizing the central town dump. Very little trou- ble has been caused by the thoughtless person who in the past has been prone to dump anywhere on roadsides or pri- vate property. Mr. Kelley's work as a volunteer agent, help- ing the Board of Health, has apparently paid off with good interest. NEW TOWN OFFICE BUILDING. We are happy to say that late in August we were able to move into the New Town Office Building. It was a much more simple job to do this than we had anticipated. The new building has proven very satisfactory and outside of a few minor changes, which it has been necessary to make, everything is very pleasing to us all. "We have had many reports from different people who have visited us that have been satisfactory and complimen- tary and we take great pleasure at this particular time in thanking the public and other members of the Building Com- mittee, and the architect, Mr. Gaffney, and the builder, Seth R. Nickerson, who is really an old Dennis man. It is planned to have open house some time in the Spring, after the land- scaping is finished. BEACH PROPERTY. We are very glad to report that the Town has finally acquired all of the beach frontage ex- tending from Loring Avenue to Bass River with the excep- tion of the Kennedy parcel. This property comprises a beach frontage of practically a mile and we feel that regardless of the expense incurred, it was a real bargain for the Town. CIVIL DEFENSE. In September, the Civil Defense pro- gram was put into effect. "VVe were ordered to appoint a Di- rector and feel that we were fortunate in acquiring the serv- ices of Robert C. Eldred. This has gradually grown into a very important measure which requires a lot of exacting work and detail. Mr. Eldred has a report elsewhere in this book which we hope you will all read. Detailed reports from the various Town Departments appear elsewhere in this book and we wish to thank and con- gratulate all department heads and other employees for their interest and cooperation, and for a year's work well done.

  • Trump Success? Conventional Measures in the Era of an Unconventional President
    Trump Success? Conventional Measures in the Era of an Unconventional President Jon R. Bond Texas A&M University [email protected] and Manny Teodoro Texas A&M University [email protected] Prepared for Presentation at the 115th Annual Meeting & Exhibition of the American Political Science Association August 29 – September 1, 2019 Washington, DC Trump Success? Conventional Measures in the Era of an Unconventional President Abstract Conventional indicators reported in CQ’s 2017 Presidential Support Study show that President Trump racked up a “Record Success Rate”, winning 100 percent of House votes on which he expressed a position. Although presidency scholars have long recognized that winning roll call votes is not an indication of presidential influence, Trump’s unconventional style and his willful ignorance of Congress and basic details of the policies he “supports” lead us to question whether the results of roll call votes should even be interpreted as presidential success. Including this unconventional president in the study of a still small n of presidents requires innovative indicators that do not rely exclusively on traditional Presidential Support Scores that compare members on a static zero to 100 scale. Taking cues from FiveThirtyEight and from the field of sabermetrics, this paper presents two novel metrics that estimate whether House members’ support for the 11 elected presidents from Eisenhower to Trump is higher or lower than should be expected relative to differing political conditions. One metric, Support Above Expectations (SAE), estimates whether members’ presidential support is higher or lower than should be expected given electoral conditions, partisanship, polarization. This metric builds on 538’s “Trump plus-minus” score.

Pach, Jr. (359 pp.) Throughout the 1950s African Americans believed the decolonizing nation of Ghana gave the world a potent symbol of black ability to wield power fairly, peacefully, and effectively in modern political, economic, and social systems. Black Americans therefore attempted to use Ghana as a symbol of black modernity in the civil rights movement to convince American whites they should abandon the racist assumption that racial and social chaos would erupt upon the granting of full black civil rights. Such transnational racial identifications with Ghana also led numerous African American intellectuals, journalists, leaders, and organizations to pressure, often successfully, the administration of President Dwight D. Eisenhower to accord more attention and importance to Ghana, and to its leader Kwame Nkrumah. Among other events in the U.S.-Ghanaian relationship during the 1950s, African Americans played a role in causing Nkrumah’s 1951 and 1958 visits to the United States and Vice President Richard Nixon’s trip to the March 1957 independence ceremonies in Accra.
