  • Green Mountain Power Corporation Newsletter Articles and Related Documents, 1956-1959 MSA 758
    Green Mountain Power Corporation Newsletter Articles and Related Documents, 1956-1959 MSA 758 Introduction This collection contains carbon copies of articles written for the Green Mountain Power Corporation newsletter, Echo, during the period 1956-1959. Gino C. Franzi (1917-1961) may have been the author of many of these articles. The collection was given to the Vermont Historical Society by Gino’s widow, Olive Franzi, in March 2005. It is housed in one archival flip-top box and consumes .25 linear feet of shelf space. Biographical Note Gino Charles Franzi was born, the son of Maria Mollina and John Franzi, in Barre, Vermont, on 11 September 1917. His father, John Franzi, was employed as a stone cutter. Gino Franzi graduated from Spaulding High School in 1936 and served for three years in the United States Army Air Force before eventually coming to work for the Green Mountain Power Corporation. He married fellow Green Mountain Power employee Olive Romerio on 21 May 1949 and the couple lived in Montpelier, Vermont. Gino Franzi worked for Green Mountain Power for many years and may have been an editor or contributor to the company’s newsletter, Echo, during the period, 1956-1959, documented by this collection. At the time of his death in 1961, he was serving as assistant to the general superintendent of Green Mountain Power. Scope and Content Most of the newsletter articles in this collection document the social lives of Green Mountain Power Corporation employees in Montpelier, Vermont, and the surrounding area between 1956 and 1959 (folders 1-2). News items range from birth and retirement announcements to social events to a “Man of the Month” feature.

  • Did the Highway Lobby Stop Congress from Funding Transit Instead of the Interstate System in 1956?
    Ask the Rambler: Did the Highway Lobby Stop Congress from Funding Transit Instead of the Interstate System in 1956? If you’ve read an anti-sprawl book, you’ve read the horror story: the evil Highway Lobby (motto: Let’s Pave Over America) tricked Congress in 1956 into building Interstate highways instead of providing aid to transit as Congress otherwise would have done—thereby forcing people who longed for transit to buy cars instead. The question is: was Congress tricked? During World War II, transit boomed at a time of civilian shortages of gasoline and rubber. After the war, people returned to their cars. The highway people planning the Interstate System expected transit to remain a vitally important element of urban transportation. Commissioner of Public Roads Thomas H. MacDonald, who headed BPR from 1919 to 1953, made this relationship clear in a 1947 speech on “The Progress of the National Highway Program” delivered to AASHO’s annual meeting: [In] the foreseeable future, it is certain that this country will continue to require the movement of persons and commodities by highway, rail, water, and air. The time has arrived when we must broaden the scope of our outlook and studies to the end that the best possible service can be rendered by all forms of transportation, in the public interest. Although highway transportation would remain “the common denominator in the over-all transportation field,” MacDonald encouraged the State highway officials to “invite the active participation of the other transportation industries in the formulation of plans for future development” to establish “an efficient transportation system adequate for its commerce and the national defense.” Except for the period of World War II, he pointed out, transit volumes had been declining since the 1920s: In a large and unfortunately increasing measure, the great tidal movements are inefficiently accomplished in private motor cars.
