Our rate of renewal has been very slow, and qur original list of subscribers, now number only 42. Withoµt the. co-operation of each of subscribers, Vofe cannot have the variety of material deemed necessary to make this a 'quality' public~tion. There have been many of you who have been most generous and giving of your data and records. But more than half of the original subscribers have not even sent in a query or a lineage. Without this information, we have no way of knowing what are the prime areas of interest. I am a 'die-hard' tho, s<;> am keeping the way open for perhaps a smaller, less frequent newsletter type of publication. I hope to use all the material which . h~s been submitted in .our May is.sue·, but if this is not possible, there will be another is.sue at a later date to use the material. We have sold our home in Riverside and plan to move in the· spring to Colorado (our original ho.me). Hopefully perhaps we can get in cont~ct as I will maintain the Clearing Hous·e files.

    THE JFK ASSASSINATION CHRONOLOGY Compiled by Ira David Wood III

    THE JFK ASSASSINATION CHRONOLOGY Compiled by Ira David Wood III The following is a copyrighted excerpt of THE JFK ASSASSINATION CHRONOLOGY compiled by Ira David Wood III dealing with timelines and events surrounding the period of JFK’s presidency. In some instances, sources are noted - i.e. “AQOC” -an abreviation for the book, A Question Of Character. Mr. Wood is currently attempting to list all sources in anticipation of publication. January 19, 1961 Eisenhower and JFK meet at the White House for a final briefing. Eisenhower tells JFK that he must assume responsibility for the overthrow of Fidel Castro and his dangerous government, and recommends the acceleration of the proposed Cuban invasion. Says Eisenhower: “ . we cannot let the present government there go on.” AQOC Eight inches of snow falls in Washington, D.C. tonight. Traffic is snarled all over the city. After a reception, a party, and a concert at Constitution Hall, the Kennedys attend a star-studded gala at the National Guard Armory planned by Frank Sinatra. Boxes cost ten thousand dollars apiece, while individual seats go for one hundred dollars. JFK gets to bed about 4:00 A.M. AQOC January 20, 1961 JFK is sworn in as the nation’s 35th President JFK is sworn in by Chief Justice Earl Warren. JFK is the wealthiest president in American history. His private income, before taxes, is estimated at about five hundred thousand a year. On his forty-fifth birthday, his personal fortune goes up an estimated $2.5 million, in 1962, when he receives another fourth of his share in three trust funds established by his father for his children.

The Monmouth (“Mon-muth”) University Poll finds that Jeff Van Drew’s party switch is more of an issue for district voters than Amy Kennedy’s famous in-laws. The two candidates are on basically equal footing when it comes to understanding the needs of South Jersey. In the presidential election, this district flipped from Democrat in 2012 to Republican in 2016, and it looks like it might flip back again next month. Among all registered voters, Kennedy is supported by 49% and Van Drew is supported by 44%. Another 1% say they will support a third party candidate and 5% are undecided. Among likely voters in a high turnout scenario, Kennedy holds a 50% to 44% edge. She maintains that lead in a lower turnout model with 51% supporting her to 44% for Van Drew. It should be noted that these leads are all within the survey’s margin of error. Kennedy holds a 94% to 1% advantage among Democratic voters while Van Drew has an 89% to 8% lead among his now-fellow Republicans. Independents prefer Kennedy by a 50% to 40% margin.

    Hottest N.J. Primary Features a Kennedy Vs. a Pundit for Right to Face Party-Switching Trump Fan

    Set Weather Subscribe Politics Hottest N.J. primary features a Kennedy vs. a pundit for right to face party-switching Trump fan Posted Jun 25, 10:45 AM The race between Brigid Harrison, left and Amy Kennedy, right, has shined a spotlight on the race the 2nd Congressional district seat. Reliable local news matters. 0 shares By Jonathan D. Salant | NJ Advance Media for NJ.com South Jersey’s 2nd Congressional District was already expected to feature one of the nation’s hottest congressional races. That’s because angry Democrats promised an all-out fight against rookie Rep. Jeff Van Drew, who switched to the Republican Party after refusing to back Donald Trump’s impeachment and then pledged his “undying support” for the president. Political pundit Brigid Callahan Harrison, a Montclair State University political science professor, quickly lined up the backing of six county chairs and state Senate President Stephen Sweeney, D-Gloucester, and entered the race. Then Amy Kennedy, wife of former Rep. Patrick Kennedy, D-R.I., and the most recent candidate from the iconic political family, also jumped in the July 7 Democratic primary. So there’s indeed a street fight in this district — a few months early. “I don’t think this primary would get as much attention if there wasn’t someone named Kennedy in it,” said Nathan Gonzales, editor and publisher of Inside Elections, which rated Van Drew as a slight favorite for re- election. Kennedy used campaign donations from her family to help surpass Callahan Harrison in campaign contributions, $566,253 to $158,345, through March 31.
