Y. 10019 FOREWORD The publication of this geographical list of accounting firms and individual practitioners has been authorized by the executive committee of the Institute. Firms which have at least one partner who is a member or associate of the Institute, and individual practitioners who themselves are mem­ bers or associates, are listed. Only the firm name and address in each city is included. The number following the address is the postal zone or zip number. Offices are listed in accordance with information furnished to us by members in response to our request. In the absence of such information, the listings were compiled from our records. Offices in Puerto Rico and the Virgin Islands are shown near the end of the list. Those in foreign countries are not included. An alphabetical directory of all members and associates is scheduled to be published in 1965. A FEW FACTS ABOUT CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS As its name implies, the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants admits only CPAs to membership. First licensed in 1896 in New York, CPAs are members of a fast-growing profession which has nearly tripled in two decades (to an estimated 85,000). It is expected that the present number will be doubled by 1975. Competence In order to become a CPA, one must satisfy education and ex­ perience requirements, specified by state law, and pass a difficult two- and-a-half-day written examination. The examination is prepared by the American Institute and is uniform in all states, territories and the District of Columbia. Currently, almost 95 per cent of successful CPA candidates are college graduates. Ethics CPAs are subject to discipline under state laws or rules promul­ gated by state boards of accountancy. In addition, the individual prac­ titioners and firms listed in this directory are also subject to the American Institute’s Code of Professional Ethics. The Code contains twenty-one rules. Those of special interest to credit grantors and others who rely upon the profession are summarized as follows: Independence. A member shall not express an opinion on the financial statements of an enterprise unless he is in fact independent. All relationships with a client should be assessed with this in mind. No member is considered independent if he has any financial in­ terest in, or is an officer, director, or key employee of, such an enter­ prise. Technical Standards. In expressing an opinion on financial state­ ments, a member must make all disclosures necessary to make the state­ ments not misleading, and must conform with generally accepted ac­ counting principles and auditing standards. (Accounting principles and auditing standards are described in bulletins of the Institute which are available. Among other things, ob­ servation of inventories and confirmation of receivables are usually re­ quired when an opinion is given.) The Institute’s Accounting Principles Board is the profession’s leading authority on what constitute’s “generally accepted accounting principles.” The Board considers studies published by the Institute’s professional research staff and then make pronouncements as to the accounting treatment which should be applied. At its October 1964 meeting the governing Council resolved that members should see to it that departures from the Board’s pronounce­ ments are disclosed either in the auditor’s report or in footnotes to the financial statements. Wherever practicable the financial effect also should be reported. This will be effective for fiscal periods beginning after December 31, 1965. Reporting Standards. A member shall not permit his name to be associated with financial statements unless he either (a) expresses an opinion or (b) disclaims an opinion and explains why (for example, because the scope of his examination has been limited by the client). He may express a qualified opinion, so long as his exceptions are not so material as to negative the opinion as a whole. (For example, if inventory and receivables are material in relation to total assets, and he has not examined them, he may not express a qualified opinion, but must disclaim an opinion and explain why.) Advertising and Solicitation are not permitted. Confidential Relationship. A member shall not disclose confiden­ tial information without the permission of the client. Copies of a booklet containing the Institute’s Code of Professional Ethics, as well as opinions of its committee on professional ethics, are available on request. Enforcement Complaints alleging violation of the Code of Professional Ethics are accepted by the Institute from any source. Names of complainants may be held in confidence. If, after investigation, the Committee on Professional Ethics believes a violation has occurred, the respondent is summoned before the Trial Board, which may acquit, admonish, sus­ pend or expel him. State societies have similar disciplinary machinery. State boards of accountancy may suspend or revoke CPA certi­ ficates for violation of provisions in state accountancy laws. Practice Review Board This Board will review questionable reports by CPAs received any source on a confidential basis, and will point out departures from standards to the CPA concerned. Names of persons submitting ques­ tionable reports will not be disclosed.. The Institute welcomes inquiries on any aspect of ethical conduct, and will fully respect confidences when requested. The American Institute The American Institute was organized in 1887—nine years before the first CPA law was passed—as the American Association of Public Accountants. It now has more than 51,000 members. At present, fifty-four AICPA boards and committees are studying various aspects of the profession. In addition to preparing the CPA examination and maintaining its Code of Professional Ethics, the American Institute performs such serv­ ices as: providing professional development courses to keep practicing CPAs abreast of new accounting developments, aiding government agencies on accounting matters, and assisting members with technical problems. It also publishes America’s leading accounting periodical—The Jour­ nal of Accountancy—and Management Services, a new bi-monthly maga­ zine. The Journal has a circulation of more than 105,000 accountants, business managers, government officials and educators. The Institute’s headquarters—at 666 Fifth Avenue, New York—has one of the largest and most comprehensive libraries on accounting in the world. In addition to the Institute, most CPAs belong to a state society. While not formally affiliated with the Institute, the state societies work closely with the national body.

  • Torben Amstrup Christensen The
    1 Torben Amstrup Christensen The forgotten ”jazz ballads”. Jazz: A music created mainly by African-Americans in the early 20th century through an amalgamation of elements drawn from European-American and tribal African musics. A unique type, it cannot safely be categorized as folk, popular, or art music, though it shares aspects of all three. (www.oxfordmusiconline.com). Op gennem 1920’erne erobrede grammofonpladerne markedsandele i den hurtigt eksskalerende amerikanske underholdningsindustri. På trods af at mediets muligheder – med vore dages øjne - på mange måder var begrænset, fx af de gamle shellack pladers max spilletid på ca. 3 minutter og en – til tider - meget diskutabel lydkvalitet. Grammofonens succesfærd ramte bredt. Både i storbyerne og i landdistrikterne blev der solgt flere og flere af dem specielt til folk fra middelklassen, og sammen med det ligeledes hurtigt voksende radiomedie gav det nu lytterne muligheder for at høre musik med favoritnavne, der ikke før havde været inden for rækkevidde, hvis de da ikke lige spillede et sted i nærheden og man vel at mærke havde råd til billetten. Det voksende antal pladelabels var dygtige til at afsøge markedets mange muligheder. Man indførte fx kategorierne/etiketterne race records og hillbilly for at markere overfor publikum at kunstnerne enten var afro-amerikanere eller ”hillbillies”. Samtidig fortalte etiketterne, at pladerne primært var tiltænkt et henholdsvist afro-amerikansk eller hvidt landarbejder publikum. Da den tidlige jazz i mange tilfælde blev spillet af afro-amerikanske musikere, hørte de således oftest hjemme i race records kassen. 20’ernes jazzrepertoire var en blanding af sange/ melodier hentet fra mange traditioner, fx marchband repertoiret – High Society, I’ll be Glad When You’re 2 Dead You Rascal You, ragtime og blues – Dippermouth Blues, St Louis Blues, West end Blues, gospel – When The Saints go Marchin’ in og hvad man bredt kunne kalde american popular songs – fx Hoagy Carmichaels Rocking Chair og Lazy River (Carmichael, Arodin).

  • The State of Sex: Tourism, Sex and Sin in the New American Heartland
    THE STATE OF SEX The State of Sex is a study of Nevada’s legal brothels that situates the nation’s only legal brothel industry in the political economy of con- temporary tourism. Nevada is part of the “new American heartland,” as its pastimes, people, and politics have become more central to the nation. The rise of a service and leisure economy over the past 60 years has propelled sexuality into the heart of contemporary markets. Yet, neoliberal laws in the United States promote business but limit sexual commerce. How have Nevada’s legal brothels survived, while the rest of the country criminalizes prostitution? How do the brothels operate? Who works in them? This book brings social theory on globalizing econ- omies, politics, leisure consumption, and emotional labor in interactive service work together with research on contemporary prostitution and sexual commerce. The authors employ an innovative, multi-method sociological approach, combining historical analysis of how the brothels came to be with over a decade’s worth of ethnographic research on the current state of the industry. Barbara G. Brents, Ph.D., is Associate Professor of Sociology and Faculty Affiliate in Women’s Studies at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas. Crystal A. Jackson, M.A., is a Ph.D. student in the Department of Sociology at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas. Kathryn Hausbeck, Ph.D., is Senior Associate Dean of the Graduate College and Associate Professor in Sociology at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas. Edited by Valerie Jenness, University of California–Irvine and Jodi O’Brien, Seattle University This innovative series is for all readers interested in books that provide frameworks for making sense of the complexities of contemporary social life.

  • Stagger Lee How Violent Nostalgia Created an American Folk Song Standard
    Essay Stagger Lee How Violent Nostalgia Created an American Folk Song Standard Duncan Williams University of York Tradition ist die Weitergabe des Feuers und nicht die Anbetung der Asche. ~ Attr. Gustav Mahler (1860-1911, German composer) Tradition is tending the flame, not worshipping the ashes (Translation by author) Tending the Flame There is a long tradition of storytelling in folksong. Before methods for transcribing and later for recording definitive versions existed, the oral tradition was used to pass on tales and deeds. And, as anyone familiar with ‘Chinese whispers’ will know, this process is not always accurate. Even when transcription methods had become available, the accuracy of the record can be questioned, as is the case in Sabine Bearing-Gould (1834-1924), an 18th century Anglican reverend, perhaps most famous for his earnest documentation of werewolves (Baring-Gould 1973), as well as many collections of English folk song, which were often unsurprisingly edited from the pious perspective of a religious man of the time, likely due to the collectors profession. Often, such songs are cautionary or moral tales, and thus the process of collecting and editing can change an oral history dramatically. This essay will consider how one such instance, the song Stagger Lee, reflects changing attitudes of the audience and the narrator towards violence and masculinity in its portrayal of an initially real-world, and later supernatural, violent protagonist. How, and why this paean to violence, with its fetishistic vision of extreme masculinity, has become something of a standard in the American folk canon. It considers both the retelling of Stagger Lee’s tale in song, and subsequent appropriation by cinema in depictions of race, sex, and violence as admirable or heroic qualities.

  • How the Atlanta Daily World Covered the Struggle for African American Rights from 1945 to 1985
    Abstract Title of Dissertation: THE CAUTIOUS CRUSADER: HOW THE ATLANTA DAILY WORLD COVERED THE STRUGGLE FOR AFRICAN AMERICAN RIGHTS FROM 1945 TO 1985 Name: Maria E. Odum-Hinmon Doctor of Philosophy, 2005 Dissertation Directed By: Prof. Maurine Beasley, Ph. D. Philip Merrill College of Journalism This dissertation is a study of the Atlanta Daily World, a conservative black newspaper founded in 1928, that covered the civil rights struggle in ways that reflected its orientation to both democratic principles and practical business concerns. The World became the most successful black daily newspaper in the nation after becoming a daily in 1932 and maintaining that status for nearly four decades. This dissertation details how this newspaper chronicled the simultaneous push for civil rights, better conditions in the black community, and recognition of black achievement during the volatile period of social change following World War II. Using descriptive, thematic analysis and in-depth interviews, this dissertation explores the question: How did the Atlanta Daily World crusade for the rights of African Americans against a backdrop of changing times, particularly during the crucial forty- year period between 1945 and 1985? The study contends that the newspaper carried out its crusade by highlighting information and events important to the black community from the perspective of the newspaper’s strong-willed publisher, C. A. Scott, and it succeeded by relying on Scott family members and employees who worked long hours for low wages. The study shows that the World fought against lynching and pushed for voting rights in the 1940s and 1950s. The newspaper eschewed sit-in demonstrations to force eateries to desegregate in the 1960s because they seemed dangerous and counterproductive when the college students wound up in jail rather than in school.

Titled “Gendered Environments: Exploring Histories of Women, Genders, and Sexualities in Social, Political, and ‘Natural,’ Worlds,” the conference sought to elicit productive and intersectional conversation about the en- vironmental challenge of climate change and the centennial anniversary of the 19th Amendment. We all now know firsthand what it feels like to be standing in the swirl of a historic happening. This year’s Big Berks has been like none other in that it was scheduled to take place during what turned out to be the global pandemic of COVID-19. The Berks intellectual and social community, like communities all around the world, has had to adapt to emergency, relinquish plans years in the making, and forestall wishes of convening together in one place. After extensive deliberations, the officers and trustees of the Berkshire Conference agreed that in light of the profound uncertainty and very real health risks related to COVID-19, and in light of our host university’s announcement about the suspen- sion of sponsored events until further notice, it was not possible to meet as planned.

  • Long Ways from Home: the Rhetoric and Performance of The
    LONG WAYS FROM HOME: THE RHETORIC AND PERFORMANCE OF THE AMERICAN FOLK OUTLAW A Dissertation by DAMIAN CARPENTER Submitted to the Office of Graduate and Professional Studies of Texas A&M University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Chair of Committee, M. Jimmie Killingsworth Committee Members, William Bedford Clark John Lenihan David McWhirter Head of Department, Nancy Warren May 2014 Major Subject: English Copyright 2014 Damian Carpenter ABSTRACT This study traverses the unsettled outlaw territory that is simultaneously a part of and apart from settled American society by examining outlaw myth, performance, and perception over time. In this study the outlaw figure is de-heroicized and expanded upon in its historical (Jesse James, Billy the Kid), folk (John Henry, Stagolee), and social (tramps, hoboes) forms in order to emphasize the disruptive possibilities of a marginal or outcast existence in performative acts that improvise on tradition. Because the outlaw voice has been most prominent in folk performance since the late nineteenth century, this study focuses on the works and personae of Lead Belly, Woody Guthrie, and Bob Dylan. The performative outlaw is a cultural persona that is invested in outlaw tradition and conflates the historic, folkloric, and social in a cultural act. These three outlaw performers also demonstrate key cultural treatments of the outlaw in the form of the bad man, good man, and honest man. ii DEDICATION To Lisarooni, Mom, Dad, Matt, Marc, and Barbara Rutherford. iii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I would like to thank my committee chair, Dr. M. Jimmie Killingsworth, and my committee members, Dr.
