    Benjamin C. West Press Gallery, U.S. House of Representatives (1942–1968) Superintendent, Daily Press Gallery, U.S. House of Representatives (1969–1986) Oral History Interviews Final Edited Transcripts August 24, 2005 August 31, 2005 September 7, 2005 January 19, 2006 Office of the Historian U.S. House of Representatives Washington, D.C. Table of Contents Interview Abstract i Interviewee Biography i Editing Practices ii Citation Information ii Interviewer Biography iii Interview One 1 Interview Two 53 Interview Three 110 Interview Four 166 Notes 203 Index 204 Abstract Benjamin West joined the staff of the House Press Gallery in 1942 when he was 15 years old. His 44-year career spanned the pinnacle and the decline of the newspaper as Americans’ primary source of information and the ascendancy of electronic media. In this series of interviews, West discussed the evolution of the House Press Gallery, particularly as the press sought to explain federal actions and policies that had become increasingly important in Americans’ everyday lives. He described the structure of the gallery, related its early history, and detailed its daily operations under its second and third superintendents, William J. Donaldson, Jr., and Richard (Dick) Embly. West explained the role of the Standing Committee of Correspondents, mentioning many of its key members, and its dynamic relationship with the gallery. He recalled pioneering women reporters and African- American reporters in the 1940s and historic events such as the 1954 shooting in the House Chamber and the 1974 Nixon impeachment hearings, both of which he witnessed. West also provided insight into the complex role of the gallery staff—particularly the superintendent—in its efforts to serve “two masters”: the press and the Members and staff.

Strengths of the Lee Library include American, British, and French photography and photographers. The publications on French 19th- century material (numbering well over 100), include many uncommon specialized catalogues from French regional museums and galleries, on the major photographers of the time, such as Eugène Atget, Daguerre, Gustave Le Gray, Charles Marville, Félix Nadar, Charles Nègre, and others. In addition, it is noteworthy that the library includes many small exhibition catalogues, which are often the only publication on specific photographers’ work, providing invaluable research material. The major developments and evolutions in the history of photography are covered, including numerous titles on the pioneers of photography and photographic processes such as daguerreotypes, calotypes, and the invention of negative-positive photography. The Lee Gallery Library has great depth in the Pictorialist Photography aesthetic movement, the Photo- Secession and the circle of Alfred Stieglitz, as evidenced by the numerous titles on American photography of the early 20th-century. This is supplemented by concentrations of books on the photography of the American Civil War and the exploration of the American West. Photojournalism is also well represented, from war documentary to Farm Security Administration and LIFE photography.

  • Violence Against Members of Congress and Their Staff: Selected Examples and Congressional Responses
    Violence Against Members of Congress and Their Staff: Selected Examples and Congressional Responses R. Eric Petersen Specialist in American National Government Jennifer E. Manning Information Research Specialist Erin Hemlin Research Associate January 25, 2011 Congressional Research Service 7-5700 www.crs.gov R41609 CRS Report for Congress Prepared for Members and Committees of Congress Violence Against Members of Congress and Their Staff: Examples and Responses Summary Questions about the personal security and safety of members of Congress and their staffs have arisen in the aftermath of a recent attack in Tucson, Arizona, and following reports of an increase in the number of threats made against members of Congress. Two measures have been introduced in the 112th Congress to address issues related to violence against members and congressional staff. On January 19, 2011, Representative Robert A. Brady of Pennsylvania introduced H.R. 318 to amend title 18, United States Code, to punish threats to commit violent crimes against members of Congress. On January 20, 2011, Representative Laura Richardson introduced H.R. 367, the Freedom to Serve Without Fear Act of 2011, which would prohibit the knowing possession of a firearm near a venue at which a member of Congress is performing official duties or campaigning for public office. Since 1789, available information from official and private sources suggests that there have been at least 21 instances of attacks involving 24 members who were targeted by assailants. There have been 12,013 individuals who have served as Representatives or Senators since 1789. In 11 instances, the attacks were thwarted, or resulted in no serious injuries to members.

  • Violence Against Members of Congress and Their Staff: Selected Examples and Congressional Responses
    Violence Against Members of Congress and Their Staff: Selected Examples and Congressional Responses R. Eric Petersen Specialist in American National Government Jennifer E. Manning Senior Research Librarian August 17, 2017 Congressional Research Service 7-5700 www.crs.gov R41609 Violence Against Members of Congress and Their Staff: Selected Examples and Congressional Responses Summary Questions about the personal security and safety of Members of Congress and their staffs are of enduring concern for the House, Senate, and the United States Capitol Police (USCP). Broader interest in the media and among the public arises in the aftermath of incidents such as the June 14, 2017, attack on at least 17 Members of Congress, several staff, USCP officers, and members of the public in Alexandria, Virginia. In that incident, a Member was critically wounded, and others were injured during a shooting that occurred as Members were practicing for an annual congressional baseball game. Official records, supplemented from available news accounts, suggest that there have been at least 20 instances of attacks against Members since 1789. In 10 instances, the attacks failed, were thwarted, or resulted in no serious injuries to Members. Another five incidents resulted in the wounding of at least nine Members. Finally, five instances each resulted in the death of a Member. In these examples, it appears that individual Members were targeted on 17 occasions. There have been three incidents in which more than one Member was targeted, including the Alexandria attack. In some of the incidents of attacks on Members or in the Capitol, including the Alexandria incident, some congressional staff were also affected.

This exhibit prepared by Marilyn McNitt of the Bentley Library staff nicely provides an overview of the history of what started as a small one room operation and has, over 75 years, grown to be a research institution of international importance. On December 2, 1935, Alexander Ruthven, president of the University of Michigan, wrote to Lewis Vander Velde, professor of history, that on November 29 the Board of Regents voted to establish a Committee on University Archives to be chaired by Frank E.

I think that’s the most important thing: to get to know people, and to get to know them on a personal basis. And just not mouth somebody else’s ideas or words that you hear about. Get your ideas out of your own head because we all have them, basically; we don’t share them, necessarily. But I think that’s a pretty good thing. But you have to have that desire to come here and work, and not be coming here to have people see you on the floor, or see you in a committee, or see you there, and then hope that you have some idea of what’s going on, that’s not it. We’re not television stars by any means, especially when they take the camera away…anyway, you have to have a deep desire for it. And I, apparently, must have had it after seeing what had gone on in my life and to have hoped I could make a difference.

Table of Contents Interview Abstract i Interviewee Biography i Editing Practices ii Citation Information iii Interviewer Biography iii Interview One 1 Interview Two 44 Interview Three 90 Interview Four 135 Notes 177 Index 181 Abstract In the summer of 1941, just before his 15th birthday, Joe Bartlett left the family farm in rural West Virginia to work as a Page on Capitol Hill. But what he expected would be a one-month position became a House career that spanned 38 years. Bartlett eventually served as the chief of Pages, then as a reading clerk and, in the 1970s, as Clerk to the Minority—the senior Republican staff officer in the House. In his series of interviews, he provided many details on House proceedings and insights on how each of his positions fit into the day-to-day operation of the institution. Bartlett witnessed and described many historic events during his long tenure on the Hill, including President Franklin D. Roosevelt’s “Day of Infamy” speech on December 8, 1941 and the 1954 shooting in the House Chamber. His interviews touched upon the daily routines, customs, and traditions he observed in the U.S.
