Name: Jonathan H. Skaggs Date of Degree: JULY, 2014 Title of Study: THE OLD RIGHT AND ITS INFLUENCE ON THE DEVELOPMENT OF MODERN AMERICAN CONSERVATISM Major Field: History Abstract: In November of 1955, William F. Buckley published the first issue of National Review. His journal defined modern American conservatism as a mix of anti-Marxism, tradition, and a belief in limited government. These three interconnected ideas formed the foundation of modern American conservatism. In the first issue of National Review, Buckley wrote that the intent of his journal was to “stand athwart history, yelling stop!” Buckley hoped that National Review would halt the growth of atheism and collectivism in the United States. The journal would work to protect American traditions, argue for limited government, and attack all forms of Marxism. In addition the name National Review reflected the journal’s goal of bringing all conservatives together in one national movement. However, the basic ideas of modern American conservatism already existed in scholarly journals of the 1930s and 1940s.

To the professional reviewer, with his daily dozen of reviews to do, Morley's The Power in the People might seem just another book of political essays to be quickly skimmed and as quickly reviewed, with a few hackneyed but well chosen phrases, a few wise saws and modern instances. No profes- sional reviewer, but a lawyer and judge, I shall certainly not review the book in that way. A devout believer in, and supporter of, American constitutionalism, as the proven way of life for us, I am an equally earnest unbeliever in, and opponent of, creeping socialism, "the better way of life," the current form of authoritarianism now being offered us.

  • M*] FRANK MORLEY—IN MEMORIAM with the Death Of
    m*] FRANK MORLEY—IN MEMORIAM 167 FRANK MORLEY—IN MEMORIAM With the death of Professor Frank Morley in Baltimore on October 17,1937, there passed one of the more striking figures of the relatively small group of men who initiated that development which, within his own lifetime, brought mathematics in America from a minor position to its present place in the sun. His contribution to this development, through his own untiring research, his scholarly treatises, his wide guidance, and his inspiring teaching, has been most notable. Frank Morley was born at Woodbridge, Suffolk, England on September 9, 1860, the son of Joseph R. and Elizabeth (Muskett) Morley. He took his A.B. degree at King's College, Cambridge, in 1884, his A.M. degree in 1887. During the period 1884-1887 he served as master in Bath College, England. His mathematical career in America, extended over a period of fifty years, began with an appointment to an instructorship at Haverford College in 1887. The follow­ ing year he was promoted to a professorship, a position which he held for twelve years. This was perhaps his most productive period, being marked by the appearance (in collaboration with James Harkness at Bryn Mawr) of two volumes on the theory of functions, and of about twenty of his fifty articles. In 1898 he received the degree of Doctor of Science from Cambridge University. The period at Haverford was also most eventful in his family life. On July 11, 1889, he married Lilian Janet Bird of Hayward's Heath, Sussex, England. Their three children, Christopher D., Felix M., and Frank V., all were born at Haverford in the decade following.* The graduate work in mathematics at the Johns Hopkins University, so brilliantly inaugurated by Sylvester, had just before 1900 sunk into a decline, partly because of the poor health of Professor Craig.
