FGM 3 Interviewee: Nathaniel P FGM 3 Interviewee: Nathaniel P. Reed Interviewer: Julian Pleasants Date: November 2, 2000; December 18, 2000 P: This is November 2, 2000. I am on Jupiter Island, Florida. I am speaking with Nathaniel P. Reed. When and where were you born? R: I was born on July 22, 1933, in a hospital that no longer exists in New York City. P: Early on, you went to school at Deerfield Academy. How did that experience influence your life? R: I think it had an enormous influence. I have just been given the alumni award, and I can give you a copy of my speech at Deerfield, which will give you chapter- and-verse how I grew up between Greenwich, Connecticut and here, and how much schooling at Deerfield meant to me, in the sense that I was able to continue my active field career, both on the river and in the woods and on the hillsides, and yet take up competitive team sports with a vengeance. As my speech will indicate to you, I was a very mediocre student. I was growing very, very rapidly. My body was growing at an extraordinary rate. Headmaster Boyden loved to say that I got three square meals a day and twelve hours of sleep and that I slept between and roomed between two of the brightest boys in my class, and the great hope was that something would rub off on me. Physically, I grew so rapidly that there was not a great deal of time or interest in books. I was really more interested in sleep, eating and the outdoors, and that was a great part of our lives down here and in Greenwich. In Greenwich, we were very lucky. We lived on a magnificent farm, which had 100-plus acres of woodland, and down here Jupiter Island was still a tropical paradise with alligators and bobcats on the island and owls. Across the way, there was not a fence for miles. You could walk and chase your bird dog forever. The river was full of fish, the skies were filled with birds. I lived in two paradises, one in the summer and one in the winter. P: In your speech, you mentioned that at Deerfield, you learned not only regimentation but developed strong friendships and learned how to work with other people. R: Yes. That was very, very important because, at Trinity College, I became the president of my fraternity and then went on in the military intelligence service and very rapidly became second-in-command of the intelligence wing, and then with the untimely death of a senior officer, I became the ranking officer as a first lieutenant. I had this huge office staff of master sergeants and staff sergeants, and I was barely wet behind the ears. My brother had gone to West Point and served with distinction in the Army. He had told me to, above all, trust your master sergeants. I happened to have the world=s best master sergeants, and FGM 3 Page 2 they took care of me like a broody hen. I learned to work with them and other intelligence officers, not only of the Air Force but of the Army and the Navy and of other services. I was very, very close to a whole bunch of English and Canadian intelligence officers at their air bases in Germany. I wandered back and forth and around with them, and I also had some great friends in the French Army. I learned a lot about teamsmanship, I learned a lot about trust, and I think I learned about mistrust, because it was at a very, very high moment of the Cold War. The Russians had an enormous Army/Air Force in the field. A serious mistake by [Nikita] Khrushchev [Soviet Premier] or [President Dwight] Eisenhower unquestionably would have led to war, Armageddon, but no mistakes were made. It was a marvelous stand-off and then finally, as we all know, the great Russian ship of state collapsed. P: Why did you choose Trinity College? R: I did not. It is a little-known story. I interviewed for Yale. My father and uncle had gone to Yale, and the dean of admissions said, I guess we will have to take you. It was in a period of time, that is long gone now, where the family member was given a nod over anybody else. I stood up at the interview and said, no, you do not have to take me, and walked out. So, April became May. My father and mother were pressing hard for me to make some decision as to what college I should go to. In my opinion, it was a great question of who would take me, and suddenly I got a note to see the Headmaster Dr. Boyden. He [was seated at his desk]Bas I was going between classes actually, sort of a three-minute drillBand he looked up from the telephone and he said, you are going to Trinity College, you are going to love it, and that was the end of the conversation. I did not even know where [Trinity] was [located]. In June, after graduation from Deerfield, my father said, rather quietly but rather firmly, do you not think it would be a good idea to drive up to Hartford and have a look around the campus? I said, is that where Trinity is? He said yes, it is in Hartford, and it is an old-line, very fine college, and I will go with you. I said, oh, spare me. He said, no, we are going together. How about Tuesday? I said, okay, I have not got anything going on Tuesday. Let us go. So we drove up to Trinity together. I walked by the chapel and looked down the long walk. Of course, in those days, the elm trees framed the long walk. There were probably thirty-six elms of more than 200 years of age. It was, without a doubt, with the Gothic architecture, one of the most staggeringly beautiful sights I had ever laid eyes on. [Headmaster] Frank Boyden and my father were right. I really loved Trinity. I had a difficult first and second year. I was still growing. The Korean War was on. I had great doubts whether I should be a student while the war was on [or] whether I should be at war. My brother was at war. Again, academic problems began to mount. I actually failed a course which was a requirement. It was Math 101, a dreadful course. Headmaster Boyden insisted that I try harder. I made a great friend who was the dean of admissions, and I wanted to learn how to play squash, a northeastern game if there ever was FGM 3 Page 3 one. Bill Peele, in many, many ways, kept me in Trinity. I saw him a month ago. He is recovering from a mild stroke. I spoke about the intensity of the friendship of an eighteen-year-old, and Bill was twenty-eight, so he is ten years older than I am, the intensity of the friendship that we formed. We battled on the squash court. I became such a maniac on squash that I took lessons in the evenings over at the West Hartford Country Club from one of the top pros in the country, named Eddie Reid of all things. [Bill Peele had been a star at Trinity.] I never beat him, but I would wear off all the frustrations of the day in that squash court in the evening. After showering, Bill would suggest that I take my books and go to a quiet corner in the library, and slowly, physical and mental maturation took place. My junior and senior years were really very exciting. Getting away from those horrible non-electives (whatever the hell they call them), getting into electives, being able to really study the things that I really was fascinated about, history and fine arts, especially the painting of the Renaissance and modern history, totally captivated me. I began to read hard. I began to study hard and continued to enjoy life. I fished every weekend in the spring, and I shot every weekend in the fall. I was very, very lucky. I made enormously close friends who remained life friends. [With] the very serious chapel timeBin those days, there was a very strict requirement of the number of chapel appearances per term, which was considered drudgery by mostBI began to get a very strong foundation in the Episcopal church which I have maintained to this day. I am very pleased that I never walk into [the Trinity] chapel without finding where I sat. I actually gave a pew end. I still love walking in [there]. It is one of the most beautiful Gothic chapels in the world. Trinity has meant a great deal to me. I served as a trustee for a long period of time. I enjoyed that service enormously. I served as a trustee at Deerfield, actually, simultaneously. I would fly up from Washington on a weekend from one and back to Washington and back up, usually the next weekend, for the other. After I had left Washington, I would fly up a day or two early, because I was chairman of the buildings and grounds at both the school and the college. To really get a firm grasp on the roofs that needed to be replaced or trees that needed to be fed or whatever, as always, I took those assignments terribly seriously.

    COVER Two eastbound trains and passengers appear to be waiting at the Archer depot for a westbound train from Gainesville, ca. 1910. The wood-burning freight on the right has arrived from Cedar Key, while the coal-burning train on the left has come from the south. The line on the right is the original “Florida Railroad” built by Senator David Levy Yulee’s company. Originating in Fernandina, the line had reached Archer by 1859, and was completed to its terminus at Cedar Key in 1861. The line on the left was built to haul phosphate from the mines in the area and other freight. It eventually went all the way to Tampa. From the collection of Herbert J. Doherty, Jr. Gainesville.

  • U.S. President's Committee for Hungarian Refugee Relief
    DWIGHT D. EISENHOWER LIBRARY ABILENE, KANSAS U.S. PRESIDENT’S COMMITTEE FOR HUNGARIAN REFUGEE RELIEF: Records, 1957 A67-4 Compiled by Roland W. Doty, Jr. William G. Lewis Robert J. Smith 16 cubic feet 1956-1957 September 1967 INTRODUCTION The President’s Committee for Hungarian Refugee Relief was established by the President on December 12, 1956. The need for such a committee came about as a result of the United States’ desire to take care of its fair share of the Hungarians who fled their country beginning in October 1956. The Committee operated until May, 1957. During this time, it helped re-settle in the United States approximately 30,000 refugees. The Committee’s small staff was funded from the Special Projects Group appropriation. In its creation, the Committee was assigned the following duties and objectives: a. To assist in every way possible the various religious and other voluntary agencies engaged in work for Hungarian Refugees. b. To coordinate the efforts of these agencies, with special emphasis on those activities related to resettlement of the refugees. The Committee also served as a focal point to which offers of homes and jobs could be forwarded. c. To coordinate the efforts of the voluntary agencies with the work of the interested governmental departments. d. It was not the responsibility of the Committee to raise money. The records of the President’s Committee consists of incoming and outgoing correspondence, press releases, speeches, printed materials, memoranda, telegrams, programs, itineraries, statistical materials, air and sea boarding manifests, and progress reports. The subject areas of these documents deal primarily with requests from the public to assist the refugees and the Committee by volunteering homes, employment, adoption of orphans, and even marriage.

  • Nixon's Caribbean Milieu, 1950–1968
    Dark Quadrant: Organized Crime, Big Business, and the Corruption of American Democracy Online Appendix: Nixon’s Caribbean Milieu, 1950–1968 By Jonathan Marshall “Though his working life has been passed chiefly on the far shores of the continent, close by the Pacific and the Atlantic, some emotion always brings Richard Nixon back to the Caribbean waters off Key Biscayne and Florida.”—T. H. White, The Making of the President, 19681 Richard Nixon, like millions of other Americans, enjoyed Florida and the nearby islands of Cuba and the Bahamas as refuges where he could leave behind his many cares and inhibitions. But he also returned again and again to the region as an important ongoing source of political and financial support. In the process, the lax ethics of its shadier operators left its mark on his career. This Sunbelt frontier had long attracted more than its share of sleazy businessmen, promoters, and politicians who shared a get-rich-quick spirit. In Florida, hustlers made quick fortunes selling worthless land to gullible northerners and fleecing vacationers at illegal but wide-open gambling joints. Sheriffs and governors protected bookmakers and casino operators in return for campaign contributions and bribes. In nearby island nations, as described in chapter 4, dictators forged alliances with US mobsters to create havens for offshore gambling and to wield political influence in Washington. Nixon’s Caribbean milieu had roots in the mobster-infested Florida of the 1940s. He was introduced to that circle through banker and real estate investor Bebe Rebozo, lawyer Richard Danner, and Rep. George Smathers. Later this chapter will explore some of the diverse connections of this group by following the activities of Danner during the 1968 presidential campaign, as they touched on Nixon’s financial and political ties to Howard Hughes, the South Florida crime organization of Santo Trafficante, and mobbed-up hotels and casinos in Las Vegas and Miami.

    1 Senator Dan Sullivan 2018 Address to Legislature As Prepared For Delivery 2.26.18 Introduction President Kelly. Speaker Edgmon. Members of the House and Senate from the Great State of Alaska, thank you for inviting me to speak to you. Thanks also to each member of the Legislature and your staffs for your service to our state. It’s always great to be back home and see some old friends and new faces. And it’s really, really heartening to see healthy faces. On the airplane from Anchorage last night, I saw Senator Shelley Hughes and former Senator Albert Kookesh, dear friends to many of us here. They both looked strong and told me they were winning their fights against cancer. Congratulations! There’s a few people here with me in the gallery today that I’d like to introduce. Everyone knows Connie McKenzie. Amanda Coyne is still helping me instead of writing about you. Matt Shuckerow is my new press secretary. I stole him from Congressman Young—with his permission of course. Renee Reeve, who is no stranger to many of you, is my new state director. Larry Burton is my new chief of staff, who many of you know from his time working for Congressman Young and Senator Stevens. And of course, the most important person in my life, and the love of my life, my wife Julie is here with me. I always view my address to the Legislature as the most important speech I give all year. I don’t have to tell all of you, but being in elected office, we can get caught up in the news of the day— sometimes as a result of an intemperate tweet or two… or three, or four.

With Stetsons pushed low and bandanas pulled high, they sauntered around the wide bend in the dusty trail and surveyed the sleepy town. The sun, directly overhead, blazed down, and in the distant west, dark storm clouds skated ominously across the sky. The coming downpour would quickly wash away all tracks; pursuit would be impossible. The baleful eyes of the lead rider narrowed as he scanned the peaceful scene spread before him. The remote town lolled in the afternoon warmth. On a battered barrel sheltered by an overhanging awning, a seasoned cowhand dozed fitfully.
