While the Democrats won huge majorities throughout the United States, Wisconsin was controlled during most of the decade by the Progressives, a New Deal-oriented third party headed by Governor Philip F.

ER, Sh. 206-209 (15.8 cu. ft.) ER, Sh. 210 (4.4 cu. ft.) OS XLG (1 item) OS LG “H” (3 items) OS SM “H” (12 items) Abstract: Daniel Webster Hoan served as Mayor of Milwaukee form 1916 to 1940. He was born on March 31, 1881 in Waukesha, Wisconsin. He left school in the sixth grade but worked as a cook to finance his education at the University of Wisconsin, where he earned a Bachelor of Arts in 1905. Hoan moved to Chicago after his graduation and attended Kent College, earning his Law degree in 1908. In 1909 he married his first wife, Agnes Bernice Magner. They had two children, Daniel Webster Jr. and Agnes. In 1944, after his first wife’s death, he married Gladys Arthur Townsend. Hoan was recruited by local Socialists to Milwaukee in 1908. Working as a labor lawyer he drafted the nation’s first workmen’s compensation law in 1911. Hoan became city attorney in 1910, and he was reelected in 1914. In 1916, Hoan beat incumbent Mayor Gerhard A. Bading. Daniel Hoan was reelected six times, until in 1940 he was defeated by Carl F. Zeidler. Hoan emphasized his Socialist party alliance, but he was more interested in improving services and government, so-called “sewer socialism”, than political theory. Hoan forged an enviable record, eliminating graft, improving the city’s health and safety, supporting harbor improvement and reducing debt.

  • Finding Aid Prepared by David Kennaly Washington, D.C
    THE LIBRARY OF CONGRESS RARE BOOK AND SPECIAL COLLECTIONS DIVISION THE RADICAL PAMPHLET COLLECTION Finding aid prepared by David Kennaly Washington, D.C. - Library of Congress - 1995 LIBRARY OF CONGRESS RARE BOOK ANtI SPECIAL COLLECTIONS DIVISIONS RADICAL PAMPHLET COLLECTIONS The Radical Pamphlet Collection was acquired by the Library of Congress through purchase and exchange between 1977—81. Linear feet of shelf space occupied: 25 Number of items: Approx: 3465 Scope and Contents Note The Radical Pamphlet Collection spans the years 1870-1980 but is especially rich in the 1930-49 period. The collection includes pamphlets, newspapers, periodicals, broadsides, posters, cartoons, sheet music, and prints relating primarily to American communism, socialism, and anarchism. The largest part deals with the operations of the Communist Party, USA (CPUSA), its members, and various “front” organizations. Pamphlets chronicle the early development of the Party; the factional disputes of the 1920s between the Fosterites and the Lovestoneites; the Stalinization of the Party; the Popular Front; the united front against fascism; and the government investigation of the Communist Party in the post-World War Two period. Many of the pamphlets relate to the unsuccessful presidential campaigns of CP leaders Earl Browder and William Z. Foster. Earl Browder, party leader be—tween 1929—46, ran for President in 1936, 1940 and 1944; William Z. Foster, party leader between 1923—29, ran for President in 1928 and 1932. Pamphlets written by Browder and Foster in the l930s exemplify the Party’s desire to recruit the unemployed during the Great Depression by emphasizing social welfare programs and an isolationist foreign policy.
