  • Address by the Honorable Edward H. Levi, Attorney General of the United
    ADDRESS BY THE HONORABLE EDWARD H. LEVI ATTORNEY GENERAL OF THE UNITED STATES AT THE DEDICATION CEREMONIES OF THE JOHN EDGAR HOOVER BUILDING 11:00 A.M. TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 30, 1975 J. EDGAR HOOVER BUILDING WASHINGTON, D. C. We have come together to dedicate this new building as the headquarters of the Federal Bureau of Investigation. It is a proper moment to look back to the tradition of this law enforcement organization as well as to look forward to t.he future it will meet in this new place. It was under Theodore Roosevelt that the predecessor of the FBI was founded. There was resistance to its creation. For varied reasons -- noble and base -- some feared the idea of a federal' criminal investigative agency within the Justice Department. But through'the persistence of Attorney General Charles Joseph Bonaparte the organization was formed. The resistance did not crumble when Bonaparte's idea was accompli-shed. There were bad years to follow for the Bureau. It did not escape the tarnish of the Teapot Dome era. The Justice Department and the Bureau were criticized for failing to attack official corruption with sufficient vigor. From this period the' Bureau emerged with a new beginning under the man to whose memory this new building is dedicated. John Edgar Hoover was 29 years old when Attorney General Harlan Fiske Stone appointed him acting director of the Bureau in May of 1924. Hoover's reputation of scrupulous honesty had been commended to Stone. Such a man was needed. Hoover set about reforming the Bureau to meet the demanding requirements of a more complicated era.

  • Jim Levy, Irish Jewish Gunfighter of the Old West
    Jim Levy, Irish Jewish Gunfighter of the Old West By William Rabinowitz It’s been a few quite a few years since Chandler, our grandson, was a little boy. His parents would come down with him every winter, free room and board, and happy Grandparents to baby sit. I doubt they actually came to visit much with the geriatrics but it was a free “vacation”. It is not always sun and surf and pool and hot in Boynton Beach, Fl. Sometimes it is actually cold and rainy here. Today was one of those cold and rainy days. Chandler has long since grown up into a typical American young person more interested in “connecting” in Cancun than vegetating in Boynton Beach anymore. I sat down on the sofa, sweatshirt on, house temperature set to “nursing home” hot, a bowl of popcorn, diet coke and turned on the tube. Speed channel surfing is a game I used to play with Chandler. We would sit in front of the T.V. and flip through the channels as fast as our fingers would move. The object was to try and identify the show in the micro second that the image flashed on the screen. Grandma Sheila sat in her sitting room away from the enervating commotion. She was always busy needle- pointing another treasured wall hanging that will need to be framed and sold someday at an estate sale. With my trusty channel changer at my side, I began flipping through the stations, scanning for something that would be of interest as fast as possible.

  • NEW ORLEANS NOSTALGIA Remembering New Orleans History, Culture and Traditions by Ned Hémard
    NEW ORLEANS NOSTALGIA Remembering New Orleans History, Culture and Traditions By Ned Hémard Passing Through New Orleans There have been numerous times through the centuries that the phrase “passing through New Orleans” has been used. Sometimes the occasions and circumstances were happy, while some were frighteningly sad. Unwelcome visitors “passing through New Orleans” included the Aedes aegypti mosquito and the yellow fever deaths it brought. More than 41,000 victims died from the scourge of yellow jack in New Orleans between 1817 (the first year of reliable statistics) and 1905 (the Crescent City's last epidemic). Then there were all those hurricanes that, too, came uninvited. Who in the city can forget witnessing Hurricane Katrina passing through New Orleans on weather radar? But there was a multitude of welcome cargo, and the visitors that brought it alongside the city’s docks. President Thomas Jefferson could not understate the importance of this when he wrote, “There is on the globe one single spot, the possessor of which is our natural and habitual enemy. It is New Orleans, through which the produce of three-eighths of our territory must pass to market.” By 1802, when Jefferson wrote those words, over one million dollars in American trade was floating down the Ohio and Mississippi Rivers to this great port city. This comprised two-thirds of the commerce “passing through New Orleans”. Flatboats came down the Mississippi filled with flour, beef, bacon, pork, Indian corn, oats, peas, beans, cotton, tobacco, lard, tallow, live-stock, poultry, wines, whiskey, cider, furs and hides, marble, feathers and lead.

During the Lochner era judicial review took on its modern character. Constitutional review of legislation by the Supreme Court became a routine feature of the American political system. Although judicial review itself had, of course, been known for a century, it was only with the Lochner Court that we found the need to develop a particular term to refer to the practice of the judiciary nullifying statutes. Though a variety of terms were floated by commentators of the time, including judicial supremacy, judicial veto, judicial nullification, and judicial paramountcy, “judicial review,” a term associated with the judicial supervision of the new administrative

    Rough Riders by Theodore Roosevelt Rough Riders by Theodore Roosevelt Produced by Dagny Wilson THE ROUGH RIDERS BY THEODORE ROOSEVELT 1899 ON BEHALF OF THE ROUGH RIDERS I DEDICATE THIS BOOK TO THE OFFICERS AND MEN OF THE FIVE REGULAR REGIMENTS WHICH TOGETHER WITH MINE MADE UP THE CAVALRY DIVISION AT SANTIAGO I page 1 / 223 RAISING THE REGIMENT During the year preceding the outbreak of the Spanish War I was Assistant Secretary of the Navy. While my party was in opposition, I had preached, with all the fervor and zeal I possessed, our duty to intervene in Cuba, and to take this opportunity of driving the Spaniard from the Western World. Now that my party had come to power, I felt it incumbent on me, by word and deed, to do all I could to secure the carrying out of the policy in which I so heartily believed; and from the beginning I had determined that, if a war came, somehow or other, I was going to the front. Meanwhile, there was any amount of work at hand in getting ready the navy, and to this I devoted myself. Naturally, when one is intensely interested in a certain cause, the tendency is to associate particularly with those who take the same view. A large number of my friends felt very differently from the way I felt, and looked upon the possibility of war with sincere horror. But I found plenty of sympathizers, especially in the navy, the army, and the Senate Committee on Foreign Affairs. Commodore Dewey, Captain Evans, Captain Brownson, Captain Davis--with these and the various other naval officers on duty at Washington I used to hold long consultations, during which we went over and over, not only every question of naval administration, but specifically everything necessary to do in order to put the navy in trim to strike quick and page 2 / 223 hard if, as we believed would be the case, we went to war with Spain.

  • 'INTRODUCTORY Xix City Governments Were at Once Organized
    'INTRODUCTORY xix City governments were at once organized, and 'while these had no real authority, according to the strict letter of the law, yet they were obeyed and proved as useful 'and efficient a means of maintain­ ing order as were the wholly self-constituted governments of the New .England Puritans. ' ) The Organic Act, legally establishing Oklahoma Territory and pro­ viding a for;m of government became a law on May 2, 1890. Power was given the president to appoint the governor and the secretll.ry, and the jUQges of the supreme court, The governor was given the power to appoint all other executive officials. The legislature consisted of a council of thirteen members and a house of representatives of twerity- . six. The supreme court judges acted also as district judges, and as the territory grew in size and population, the number of these judges was increased from three to five and then to seven. ' Ueorge W. Steele of Indiana became the first territorial governor, May 22, 1890. Guthrie was designated as the temporary capital and remained so until June 11, 1911, when it was moved to Oklahoma City by referendum vote of the citizens. The election was held invalid by the State Supreme Court on a defect in the bill, but Governor Haskell called a special session of the legislature, which body located the capital at Oklahoma City, December 29th by more than a two-thirds majority vote. After being in office a year and a half Governor Steele resigned and on October 18, 1891, Judge A. J. Seay, a supreme court judge of the territory was named to succeed him.
