1 a Review of the Record-Breaking Snow and Persistent Cold Of
A Review of the Record-Breaking Snow and Persistent Cold of February and March 1960 Laurence G. Lee NOAA/National Weather Service Greer, SC 1. Introduction February and March 2010 marked the 50th anniversary of one of the most severe periods of winter weather on record in the western Carolinas and extreme northeast Georgia. Beginning in February 1960 a series of winter storms and a prolonged period of below normal temperatures disrupted commerce, schools, and life in general across the region. The severe winter weather was not confined to the southern Appalachians and nearby areas. The entire eastern United States was affected. According to narratives at the time (Ludlum 1960a,b), the month of March 1960 had more records for snow and cold in the eastern states than any previous March. March 1960 is still the coldest March on record at Asheville, Charlotte, and Greenville-Spartanburg. Figure 1 displays the departure of March 1960 average temperature from normal1. The total March 1960 snowfall distribution is in Fig. 2. The general nature of the snowfall map does not depict details and extremes in the southern Appalachians. Fig. 1.

Charles De Gaulle at the National Press Club, April 23, 1960
Charles de Gaulle at the National Press Club, April 23, 1960 Charles de Gaulle. Bundesarchiv, B 145 Bild-F015892-0010 / Wegmann, Ludwig / CC-BY-SA, CC BY-SA 3.0 de, https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.ph p?curid=6845791 French President Charles de Gaulle (1890-1970) arrived in Washington on Friday, April 22, 1960, for a State visit comprised primarily of talks with President Dwight D. Eisenhower to prepare for the upcoming Big Four summit planned for May in Paris, the first such meeting since World War II of leaders from the U.S., Great Britain, France, and the Soviet Union. General de Gaulle, leader of the Free French Forces resisting both the German occupation of France and the collaborationist Vichy government during the war, drew a warm welcome from Washingtonians that matched an equally enthusiastic embrace the people of Paris had given General Eisenhower, the supreme commander of Allied forces in western Europe during the liberation of France, on his State visit seven months earlier. De Gaulle wrote in his memoir, “All the way from the airport to Blair House I drove beside President Eisenhower to a deafening accompaniment of cheers, sirens and brass bands, amid a forest of banners and flags.” Area police estimated that 200,000 people—many of them government workers given an extended lunch hour—crowded the airport, bridge, and streets. De Gaulle remarked that the greeting, “clearly represented something fundamental.” The next morning, de Gaulle held “a vast press conference at the National Press Club,” he reported, “where most of the questions put to me concerned the 1 projected meeting of the Big Four.” The New York Times described his performance as “relaxed and informal.” On Sunday, de Gaulle flew with Eisenhower to the president’s farm in Gettysburg. -

February One
February One Documentary Film Study Guide By Rebecca Cerese & Diane Wright Available online at www.newsreel.org Film Synopsis Greensboro, North Carolina, was a fairly typical Southern city in the middle of the 20th Century. The city was certainly segregated, but city officials prided themselves on handling race relations with more civility than many other Southern cities. Ezell Blair, Jr. (who later changed his name to Jibreel Khazan) was the son of an early member of the NAACP, who introduced him to the idea of activism at an early age. Ezell attended segregated Dudley High School, where he befriended Franklin McCain. Franklin, raised in the more racially open city of Washington, DC, was angered by the segregation he encountered in Greensboro. Ezell and Franklin became fast friends with David Richmond, the most popular student at Dudley High. In 1958, Ezell and David heard Martin Luther King, Jr., speak at Bennett College in Greensboro. At the same time, the rapid spread of television was bringing images of oppression and conflict from around the world into their living rooms. Ezell was inspired by the non-violent movement for independence led by Mahatma Gandhi and chilled by the brutal murder of Emmett Till. In the fall of 1959, Ezell, Franklin, and David enrolled in Greensboro’s all-black college, North Carolina A&T State University. Ezell’s roommate was Joseph McNeil, an idealistic young man from New York City. Ezell, Franklin, David, and Joseph became a close-knit group and got together for nightly bull sessions in their dorm rooms. During this time they began to consider challenging the institution of segregation. -

Opinions do STATISTICS differ, however, with respect to the effectiveness of monetary policy in achieving these goals and with respect to which goals should be given priority in case of conflict.

The complexities involved in determining and executing monetary policy are exceptionally well illustrated in the period from early 1960 to the present. This was a period of both recession and recovery and, in addition, one in which special problems were created by the United States’ balance of payments position. -

This represents a decline ot 500 jobs and 1.0 percent from mid-January 1961, and Is the smallest numerical and lowest percentage month-to-month decl lne since employment began mov~ lng down from the mid-August 1960 peak. It Is also a sign that employment Is approaching the seasonal low, and may be expected to pick up sometime In March or Aprl I. The February job decline was restricted to minor workfor·ce reductions in Trade, Service, and Government, while employment In other industries rem~lned at the January level. A year-to-year com parison Indicates that February 1961 employment was higher than that of .February 1960 by 2,200 jobs and 4,5 percent. This Increase was achieved despite lower employment In the Min Ing and Manufacturing Industries; and can be credited mainly to sustained economic growth In some Industries, staffing ot early warning system Installations, Increased government services, and a higher level of job carry-over on constructlon ·project stBrts made la~t prlng and summer, Unemployment: The number of Insured unemployed workers In mid-February 1961 was 6,821. This Is a rise In joblessness of 252 workers from mid-January 1961, and of 614 from mid-February 1960. Conforming to the usual seasonal movement, February was the sixth month In a row that unemployment Increased from the month before, How ever, the January-February Increase was only 3,8 percent, which Is significantly lower than prior month-to-month Increases, and Is an Indication that unemployment Is nearing the seasonal peak.
