  • 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.

The Bolsheviks began carrying out this plan immediately after seizing power in Russia in October of 1917. They undertook the first attempts in Finland already in 1918, where civil war had broken out, as well as in the Baltic nations. In 1919 an attempt was made at provoking an uprising in Berlin, in March of the same year a government coalition was formed in Hungary with the participation communists, and in June of 1919 an attempt was made at a coup in Vienna. With the aim of transferring the revolution to other European countries, in March 1919, the Bolsheviks founded Comintern – the Third International, which was formally an independent organisation, but in practise functioned according to the guidelines of the Political Office of the communist party. One of its “branches” was the Communist Polish Workers Party (later: the Communist Party of Poland), which originated even earlier – in December 1918. From the perspective of Poland’s independence, a highly significant issue in relations with the eastern neighbour, was determining the course of the eastern border. During this time Central Europe was occupied along the belt from the Baltic Sea to the Sea of Azov, by the German army, which only began retreating after entering into a ceasefire in Compiegne on 11 November 1918.

  • AFD Ep 320 Links and Notes
    AFD Ep 320 Links and Notes - 1920 Look-Back - March 1920 - US rejects Treaty of Versailles [Kelley] - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Treaty_of_Versailles#American_aims - The Treaty of Versailles had been negotiated as an end to WWI. Famously Wilson brought a number of American intellectuals to the negotiations, but did not bring any Republicans (Wilson was a Democrat) who had won a majority in Congress in 1918. The result was a treaty that closely reflected many of Wilson’s own ideas, but would not be ratified by the American Congress. The most illustrious example of this failure is the League of Nations. - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/League_of_Nations - The Covenant of the League of Nations was signed on June 28th, 1919 as part of the Treaty of Versailles. It went into effect on January 10, 1920. (Woodrow Wilson had won the Nobel Peace Prize for the idea in 1919.) - The general idea of the League of Nations was that nations could prevent war by establishing a collective security, disarming, and having an international body for dispute resolution and arbitration. The convent, in part, read: - THE HIGH CONTRACTING PARTIES, - In order to promote international co-operation and to achieve international peace and security - by the acceptance of obligations not to resort to war, - by the prescription of open, just and honourable relations between nations, - by the firm establishment of the understandings of international law as the actual rule of conduct among Governments, and - by the maintenance of justice and a scrupulous respect for all treaty obligations in the dealings of organised peoples with one another, - Agree to this Covenant of the League of Nations.

  • Woodrow Wilson and the Inflation Issue, 1919-1920
    Decline of a Presidenc;r: Woodroi~ Wilson o.nd the Inflation Issue, 1919-1920. John J, Hanrahan' Department of history Morehead statelUniversity Morel1ead, Ky. 40351 ,l . c The Democrats lost the 1929 presidential election, historians agree, as a result of the cumulative effect of the resentments directed against. President Woodrow Wilson by progressives, farmers, and wor.kers, the coali- 1 I tion that had kept him in the White House.in 1916. Wilson· paid this price ! I of political· damage to his presidency and his patty by giving priority to , I ' world affairs. at the expense of domestic problems. Americans .came 'to see the President as a remote figure, absent at .the Versailles peace conference the first six !"cinths of 1919, preoccupied upon his return with the.treaty ratification struggle, and shielded in the White House for months following his October stroke. The President's aloofness from his own advisers and his fierce partisanship gave Republicans the chance to portray his·admin- istration as inept one-man government. They cqnvinced voters that•Wilson was responsible for the social and economic upheaval growing out of the postwar readjustment process. The Republicans returned to power OJ). the back of the anti-Wilson feeling that they helped create. A caption of a contemporary New York World cartoon, "The GOP washed in by the waves of r 'National Discontent'," captured the heart of the Democratic defeat. A major cause in the. revulsion against:Wilsonianism that was ktrik~ ingly manifested' in· the 1920 election was the Pre'sident 1 s failure to deal with inflation effectively, a factor that'has not been given sufficient weight in existing works on the immediate past.
