    Primary Source Document with Questions (DBQs) “ THE DECISION TO USE THE ATOMIC BOMB” (FEBRUARY 1947) By Henry Lewis Stimson Introduction The dropping of the atomic bombs on Hiroshima (August 6, 1945) and Nagasaki (August 9, 1945) remains among the most controversial events in modern history. Historians have actively debated whether the bombings were necessary, what effect they had on bringing the war in the Pacific to an expeditious end, and what other options were available to the United States. These very same questions were also contentious at the time, as American policymakers struggled with how to use a phenomenally powerful new technology and what the long-term impact of atomic weaponry might be, not just on the Japanese, but on domestic politics, America’s international relations, and the budding Cold War with the Soviet Union. In retrospect, it is clear that the reasons for dropping the atomic bombs on Japan, just like the later impact of nuclear technology on world politics, were complex and intertwined with a variety of issues that went far beyond the simple goal of bringing World War II to a rapid close. Former Secretary of War Henry Lewis Stimson’s article “The Decision to Use the Bomb” appeared in Harper’s Magazine in February 1947. The piece was intended as a response to mounting public criticism of the decision to use atomic weapons against Japan, including from highly respected public figures such as Albert Einstein.

  • 1947 UK River Floods
    1947 U.K. River Floods: 60-Year Retrospective RMS Special Report I NTRODUCTION In the second half of March 1947, the most catastrophic river floods for at least 200 years occurred in the United Kingdom. The flooding, which inundated nearly all the main rivers in the South, Midlands, and the Northeast of England, was notable for its origins, regional extent, and duration. Impacting thirty out of forty English counties over a two week period, around 700,000 acres of land were underwater. Tens of thousands of people were temporarily displaced from their homes, and thousands of acres of crops were lost. The flooding was triggered by the rapid thaw of deep snow that covered much of the country after one of the coldest and snowiest winters on record. The thaw was triggered by the arrival of a succession of southwesterly depressions, each bringing significant additional rainfall. During this period, flooding was not only widespread in the U.K., but also extended across Europe. In Spain, Germany, Poland and the Czech Republic, rivers across the continent burst their banks as meltwater and heavy rainfall combined. As the event occurred before the era of flood insurance, and in the immediate aftermath of the Second World War to a backdrop of rationing and significant post-war deprivation, the overall economic impact of the catastrophe was not fully assessed at the time as impacts were considered local rather than national. Sixty years after the event, this retrospective reviews the events of March 1947 and assesses the economic and insurance costs that would be associated with a repeat of the same event in 2007.

THE FINAL TRANSFER OF POWER IN INDIA, 1937-1947: A CLOSER LOOK THE FINAL TRANSFER OF POWER IN INDIA, 1937-1947: A CLOSER LOOK A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in History By Sidhartha Samanta Utkal University Bachelor of Science in Physics, 1989 Utkal University Master of Science in Physics, 1991 University of Arkansas Master of Science in Computer Science, 2007 December 2011 University of Arkansas Abstract The long freedom struggle in India culminated in a victory when in 1947 the country gained its independence from one hundred fifty years of British rule. The irony of this largely non-violent struggle led by Mahatma Gandhi was that it ended in the most violent and bloodiest partition of the country which claimed the lives of two million civilians and uprooted countless millions in what became the largest forced migration of people the world has ever witnessed.

  • 43Rd Year March-April-May-1947 Number 2 the CLEVELAND BIRD
    43rd Year March-April-May-1947 Number 2 THE CLEVELAND BIRD CALENDAR Founded by Francis H. Herrick Of Western Reserve University in 1905 Published and Edited by THE KIRTLAND BIRD CLUB In Cooperation With The Cleveland Bird Club Inc. The Cleveland Region (For Bird Calendar Records) The circle has a thirty mile radius At The Cleveland Museum of Natural History 2717 Euclid Avenue Cleveland 15, Ohio 43rd Year, No. 2 March-April-May-1947 Page 1 THE CLEVELAND BIRD CALENDAR Spring Migration Number Issued July 15, 1947 Edited by Arthur B. Williams In our last issue we recorded 95 species of birds as having been observed during the period December 1946-January and February 1947. The present issue, covering the period March-April-May 1947, adds 125 additional species to this list, making a total of 220 to date. Last year at this time the total was 213, a rather smaller total than usual. Records in this issue include the full reports of the Sunday morning bird walks sponsored by the Cleveland Museum of Natural History. These cover the dates April 20, 27, Mary 4, 11, 18. These trips were conducted from 9 different points east, south and west of Cleveland, and so constitute an excellent check on migrating species on these dates. Due to the large number of nesting records submitted for this issue, several interesting contributions in the way of Field Notes have been omitted. The following list of 59 contributors to this issue is close to our record number (66), and indicates no falling off in interest in systematic bird observations in the Cleveland region.
