YOUNG, Columbia EDITORIAL POLICY The editors of the Missouri Historical Review welcome submission of articles and documents relating to the history of Missouri. Any aspect of Missouri history will be considered for publication in the Review. Genealogical studies, however, are not accepted because of limited appeal to general readers. Manu­ scripts pertaining to all fields of American history will be consid­ ered if the subject matter has significant relevance to the history of Missouri or the West. Authors should submit two double-spaced copies of their manuscripts. The footnotes, prepared according to The Chicago Manual of Style, also should be double-spaced and placed at the end of the text. Authors may submit manuscripts on PC/DOS, 360K disk. The disk must be IBM compatible, preferably the WordPerfect 5.1 program. Otherwise, it must be in ASCII format. Two hard copies still are required, and the print must be letter or near-letter quality. Dot matrix submissions will not be accepted. Originality of subject, general interest of the article, sources used, interpretation and style are criteria for acceptance and publica­ tion. Manuscripts should not exceed 7,500 words. Articles that are accepted for publication become the property of The State Historical Society of Missouri and may not be published else­ where without permission. The Society does not accept responsi­ bility for statements of fact or opinion made by the authors. Articles published in the Review are abstracted and indexed in Historical Abstracts, America: History and Life, Recently Published Articles, Writings on American History, The Western Historical Quarterly and The Journal of American History. Manuscripts submitted for the Review should be addressed to Dr. James W.

Patrons of that library now will be asked to place their coats and items such as purses, briefcases and other articles not required for the pursuit of research missions in coin-operated lockers. In addition, patrons asking to use rare books will have to provide a driver's license or other acceptable identifi­ cation for examination by a member of the reference staff. These procedures also will be required of patrons who visit the editorial, acquisitions and cataloging departments. The State Historical Society realizes that some of the thou­ sands of visitors to these departments will find these new security measures to be of some inconvenience. But to maintain control of the Society's extraordinary collections, the questionable acts of even a single person can affect those who have been valued friends and patrons of the Society over the years, as well as first-time visi­ tors. The inexcusable action by even one individual requires that these measures be instituted. The patrons who visit the reference, editorial, acquisitions and cataloging departments will be allowed to bring with them research materials, laptop computers and other items germane to their research activity. The State Historical Society reserves the right to have these items examined by a staff person, if such action seems warranted. Again, the State Historical Society regrets any inconvenience caused by these measures. But it believes that such procedures are necessary to retain proper oversight of its prized collections.

Holden Submitted to the graduate degree program in History and the Graduate Faculty of the University of Kansas in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy ________________________________ Chairperson Jeffery Moran ________________________________ Co-Chair Ted Wilson ________________________________ Beth Bailey ________________________________ John Kuehn ________________________________ Paul Atchley Date Defended: February 8, 2016 The Dissertation Committee for David Holden certifies that this is the approved version of the following dissertation: Managing Men and Machines: U.S. Military Officers and the Intellectual Origins of Scientific Management in the Early Twentieth Century ____________________________________________ Chairperson Jeffery Moran Date approved: February 8, 2016 ii Abstract Managing Men and Machines: U.S. Military Officers and the Intellectual Origins of Scientific Management in the Early Twentieth Century. By David Holden Professor Theodore A. Wilson, Advisor The U.S. Army officer corps experienced an intellectual revolution following the experience of WWI that fundamental altered the relationship between man and machines in war. As a result, officers failed to develop the technology gene and began to think of war as being inherently quantitatively and technological based. This dissertation examines the relationship between technology and the U.S. Army and Navy officers specifically between 1900-1925. Furthermore, the treatise addresses the role of Frederick Taylor and the rise of scientific management within the U.S. Army and Navy. iii Acknowledgements In writing this dissertation, I received invaluable assistance and support from a number of people and organizations.

  • December 1969
    • The phrase, "From the River to Rome," defines the geographical range apparent in the contents of this issue of the magazine. Initial focus is on St. Charles as the home of The Lindenwood Colleges, the historic city which celebrated this year the 2QOth anni­ versary of its founding. A photograph on the inside back cover, showing a January-term class studying art and my­ thology in Rome, dramatizes Lindenwood's reach from St. Charles to the campus of the world. Yet in addition to the geographical, the magazine empha­ sizes another dimension of Lindenwood: that of time. The front cover, combining a modernistic outdoor light at the New Fine Arts Building with a page from the 1828 diary of Lindenwood's co­ founder, George C. Sibley, symbolizes the historic past complement­ ing the dynamic present. How Lindenwood has built on tradition to spearhead programs in private education in the Sixties is evident from pages 2 through 48. Certain articles illmninating the old and the new, the near and the far should be of special interest. "The Possible Dream," beginning on page 7, is the most recent investigation of Lindenwood's history; "The Ghosts of Lin­ denwood" sheds light on some of the renowned dead in the campus cemetery. Companion stories, which almost shatter the generation gap, reveal the Now Generation's reaction to a 72-year-old student in the dormitory, while the lady in question proves that a senior citizen, like any other minority, can .Bnd happiness on this open campus. Then there is a photo essay capturing the exuberance that attended the opening of the New Fine Arts building.

  • CHAIRMEN of SENATE STANDING COMMITTEES [Table 5-3] 1789–Present
    CHAIRMEN OF SENATE STANDING COMMITTEES [Table 5-3] 1789–present INTRODUCTION The following is a list of chairmen of all standing Senate committees, as well as the chairmen of select and joint committees that were precursors to Senate committees. (Other special and select committees of the twentieth century appear in Table 5-4.) Current standing committees are highlighted in yellow. The names of chairmen were taken from the Congressional Directory from 1816–1991. Four standing committees were founded before 1816. They were the Joint Committee on ENROLLED BILLS (established 1789), the joint Committee on the LIBRARY (established 1806), the Committee to AUDIT AND CONTROL THE CONTINGENT EXPENSES OF THE SENATE (established 1807), and the Committee on ENGROSSED BILLS (established 1810). The names of the chairmen of these committees for the years before 1816 were taken from the Annals of Congress. This list also enumerates the dates of establishment and termination of each committee. These dates were taken from Walter Stubbs, Congressional Committees, 1789–1982: A Checklist (Westport, CT: Greenwood Press, 1985). There were eleven committees for which the dates of existence listed in Congressional Committees, 1789–1982 did not match the dates the committees were listed in the Congressional Directory. The committees are: ENGROSSED BILLS, ENROLLED BILLS, EXAMINE THE SEVERAL BRANCHES OF THE CIVIL SERVICE, Joint Committee on the LIBRARY OF CONGRESS, LIBRARY, PENSIONS, PUBLIC BUILDINGS AND GROUNDS, RETRENCHMENT, REVOLUTIONARY CLAIMS, ROADS AND CANALS, and the Select Committee to Revise the RULES of the Senate. For these committees, the dates are listed according to Congressional Committees, 1789– 1982, with a note next to the dates detailing the discrepancy.

    Military History Anniversaries 16 thru 30 June Events in History over the next 15 day period that had U.S. military involvement or impacted in some way on U.S military operations or American interests Jun 16 1832 – Native Americans: Battle of Burr Oak Grove » The Battle is either of two minor battles, or skirmishes, fought during the Black Hawk War in U.S. state of Illinois, in present-day Stephenson County at and near Kellogg's Grove. In the first skirmish, also known as the Battle of Burr Oak Grove, on 16 JUN, Illinois militia forces fought against a band of at least 80 Native Americans. During the battle three militia men under the command of Adam W. Snyder were killed in action. The second battle occurred nine days later when a larger Sauk and Fox band, under the command of Black Hawk, attacked Major John Dement's detachment and killed five militia men. The second battle is known for playing a role in Abraham Lincoln's short career in the Illinois militia. He was part of a relief company sent to the grove on 26 JUN and he helped bury the dead. He made a statement about the incident years later which was recollected in Carl Sandburg's writing, among others. Sources conflict about who actually won the battle; it has been called a "rout" for both sides. The battle was the last on Illinois soil during the Black Hawk War. Jun 16 1861 – Civil War: Battle of Secessionville » A Union attempt to capture Charleston, South Carolina, is thwarted when the Confederates turn back an attack at Secessionville, just south of the city on James Island.
