    OFFICERS OF THE EXECUTIVE BRANCH OF THE GOVERNMENT [ 1 ] EXPLANATORY NOTE A Cabinet officer is not appointed for a fixed term and does not necessarily go out of office with the President who made the appointment. While it is customary to tender one’s resignation at the time a change of administration takes place, officers remain formally at the head of their department until a successor is appointed. Subordinates acting temporarily as heads of departments are not con- sidered Cabinet officers, and in the earlier period of the Nation’s history not all Cabinet officers were heads of executive departments. The names of all those exercising the duties and bearing the respon- sibilities of the executive departments, together with the period of service, are incorporated in the lists that follow. The dates immediately following the names of executive officers are those upon which commis- sions were issued, unless otherwise specifically noted. Where periods of time are indicated by dates as, for instance, March 4, 1793, to March 3, 1797, both such dates are included as portions of the time period. On occasions when there was a vacancy in the Vice Presidency, the President pro tem- pore is listed as the presiding officer of the Senate. The Twentieth Amendment to the Constitution (effective Oct. 15, 1933) changed the terms of the President and Vice President to end at noon on the 20th day of January and the terms of Senators and Representatives to end at noon on the 3d day of January when the terms of their successors shall begin.

But to make too fine a point of this is typically dismissed as unserious conspiracy theorizing, unworthy of mainstream consideration.

  • Copyright By- David Henry Jennings
    Copyright by- David Henry Jennings 1959 PRESIDENT WILSON'S TOUR IN SEPTEMBER, 1919: A STUDY OF FORCES OPERATING DURING THE LEAGUE OF NATIONS FIGHT DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University t By DAVID HENRY JENNINGS, B. A ., A. M. ****** The Ohio State University 1958 Approved by A dviser Department of History PREFACE In view of the many articles and books occasioned by the recent Wilson Centennial and the current in te re st in American foreign policy, it is, indeed, surprising to note that no full length study of Wilson's transcontinental tour of September, 1919 exists. Present publication on the western trip is confined to individual chapters of longer works and b rief general essays.^ A communication from Arthur S. Link indicates that this topic w ill not receive extended coverage in his future volumes on Woodrow Wilson. The status of research indicates the need for a more complete account of the "Swing Around the Circle" than has hitherto been presented. It is hoped that this dissertation meets this need. The other major contribution of this thesis lies in the field of evaluation. The analysis of Wilson's "New Order" attempts to make a significant clarifi­ cation and synthesis in a relatively neglected area. The study, also, endeavors to identify the forces at work and appraise their effect on the League of Nations debate in September, 1919. Because present day opinion inclines toward the view that the transcontinental tour was a mistake, extended examination is undertaken to see why Wilson should have gone on the trip and why the tour failed.

    William Gibbs McAdoo COMMITTEE ON THE HISTORY OF THE FEDERAL RESERVE SYSTEM Register of Papers Processed: MA Date: 1/23/56 WILLIAM GIBBS McADOO (1863 - 19U) The papers of William Gibbs McAdoo, lawyer, politician, Secretary of the Treasury, Chairman of the Federal Reserve Board, U. £• Senator from California, have been given to the Library of Congress -with restrictions which are said to hold until I960. The collection is voluminous, not yet arranged for easy access, 'do permission for use is as yet obtainable. Measure of size: Approximate number of Ubems: Because Mr. McAdoo was Secretary of the Treasury in 1913 and hence the first Cnairman of the Federal Reserve Board (a post which he occupied for 5 years), his papers should contain material of interest to students of the System's early years. Requests for further information should be addressed to the chief of the Manuscripts Division, Library of Congress.

  • Franklin Roosevelt, the Democratic Party, and the Circular Letter of 1924
    A PARTY IN PERIL: FRANKLIN ROOSEVELT, THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY, AND THE CIRCULAR LETTER OF 1924 Joseph D. Faykosh A Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY December 2016 Committee: Scott C. Martin, Advisor Ellen Gorsevski Graduate Faculty Representative Michael Brooks Douglas Forsyth Nicole Kalaf-Hughes © 2016 Joseph D. Faykosh All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Scott Martin, Advisor The Democratic Party suffered its worst electoral defeat in 1924, when compromise candidate John Davis survived a brutal convention in New York City only to be soundly defeated by incumbent President Calvin Coolidge. It was a demoralizing defeat for the party, and Franklin D. Roosevelt seized this fraught moment to take the reins as party leader and begin reforming the party to fit his vision. Roosevelt composed a “Circular Letter,” listing five fundamental principles that the Democratic Party should unite behind, and sent it to delegates and party leaders throughout the country. Whether he believed that the responses would simply endorse his suggestions and reorient him as party leader or not, he received a variety of feedback, demonstrating the deep fissures within the Democratic Party and a distinct lack of direction or shared vision. This dissertation focuses on the convergence of two fortunes: the Democratic Party, going through one of its darkest periods, and Franklin Roosevelt, recovering from his tragic illness and trying to reclaim his position in the party. My dissertation provides the most significant examination of the Franklin Roosevelt Circular Letter of 1924. Analyzing the Franklin Roosevelt Circular Letter of 1924 provides an opportunity to understand a party and politician in peril: the Democratic Party at its lowest moment since the Civil War; Franklin Roosevelt at a personal and political crossroads; and how Roosevelt’s Circular Letter and responses provided a way for both the party and his political career to return to prominence.
