This is an interview with G. Eugene Martin. This is being done on behalf of the Association for Diplomatic Studies and Training. I*m Charles C Stuart Kennedy. Well Gene, we*ll start at sort of the beginning. Could you tell me when and where you were born and something about your family, MA0T N: was born in ndianapolis, actually Speedway, ndiana, which is right next to the racetrack outside of ndianapolis, during the war, in 1,C8. My parents were missionaries in ndia, and they had returned in 1,C1, just at the beginning of the war, for furlough back in the States. Caught in the States and not able to go back to ndia during the war, my father took a church in ndianapolis. Ae were living there when was born. Q: What denomination was your father, MA0T N: He was American Baptist. Q: -es. Where had they been wor.ing in India, MA0T N: They were in what is now Andhra Pradesh, then it was called Hyderabad. t was about 120 miles north of Madras :now Chennai), on the east coast of ndia. My parents were third generation missionaries in the same area of ndia so that essentially was 5home.7 My great grandfather had started the work in that town. guess this is how became interested in foreign affairs. Q: -es. Well, what was it li.e growing up in Speedway, MA0T N: Aell, didnFt really grow up there. Ae left when was six weeks old and moved to %ansas to my maternal uncleFs house because my father was preparing to go back to ndia before the war was over. He went back in early FCC, but women and children were not allowed to go. So my mother, elder brother and moved to %ansas to stay with her brother on the farm until the end of the war. Q: So, well, I mean, you were pretty young. By the time you started being at the age where you remembered things, where were you, MA0T N: Ae went out to ndia when was two on an empty troop ship going out to pick up the troops from the CB :China1Burma1 ndia) theater. The troop ship docked in Bombay, father met us there, and we took the train home. Q: -es. Where was home, MA0T N: Home was, at that time, a small town in ndia called %anigiri, where we lived for a few years. That was where have my first memories. Q: -es. What do you recall first memories, Sort of family life or, MA0T N: guess the most vivid one is when found some red chilies out on the back porch one day. Not knowing what they were, popped several in my mouth. instantly . found out what red chilies were all about. probably ate a whole stalk of bananas to moderate the heat. Q: Well, that*s down in the chili belt, isn*t it, MA0T N: Aell, the hot Madrasi curry is famous in that area. Q: Where did you start going to school by the time you were put into .indergarten or whatever, MA0T N: My mother taught my elder brother and me initially, using the Calvert course, the famous correspondence school out of Baltimore. Q: -es. MA0T N: studied in the Calvert system from kindergarten through third grade, my brother and in the class taught by my mother. Q: How old was your brother, MA0T N: HeFs about a year and a half older than am. Q: -es. MA0T N: My mother was the teacher, and a strict disciplinarian. She kept the distinction that she was the teacher in the classroom and not mother, so we had to behave, sit properly, and not look for motherly attention. That was for about three years. Ae went back to the States in 1,.0 for furlough and spent a year in Ohio, where went to fourth grade. n 1,.1, we returned to ndia and entered boarding school in %odaikanal, one of the boarding schools in the hills of South ndia. Q: -es. Well, as a very young .id, what were you getting from your parents, and your own observations, about the part of India you were in, MA0T N: Aell, was aware of what was going on, albeit at a childFs level of comprehension. remember when Eandhi was assassinated. remember the emotion that overwhelmed the populace, both ndian as well as foreign. remember independence. Ae didnFt have a radio and T3 was many years away from ndia at that point. But we had newspapers and magazines, and occasionally a radio notice would tell us what was going on in the world. One of the other missionaries had a radio which we heard occasionally. remember listening to that, or watching and reading about independence, political movements, Eandhi, and so forth. was very young, only six or seven, but it left an impression. Q: -es. The great separation between the Muslims and the Hindus and all didn*t ta.e place down there, did it, - MA0T N: That was mainly in the north. However, Hyderabad was still ruled by the Nizam of Hyderabad, the local maharajah, who was Muslim as was a large percentage of his populace. Huite a number of families did leave for Pakistan during partition. donFt remember that too vividly myself because there were not many Muslims in our particular area. Q: Did you have an ayah, MA0T N: Oh, well, not really. Peter was our cook, his wife Deenama helped with the cleaning, and a gardener cared for the garden. My brother and ran around in short pants and bare feet, and climbed trees, and played with the cookFs son, Eeorge, who was our best friend. Ae had just a normal childhood. Q: -es. What about language, Where you pic.ing up any language, MA0T N: One of my proudest moments was helping my father find the right Telugu word for 5chimney7 for one of his sermons. canFt remember why he was speaking about chimneys, but knew the word instantly, and he had not learned that in his language class. was Duite fluent, with an eight1to1ten1year1oldFs vocabulary, in Telugu, which was the language spoken in the area. Q: How old were you when you went to boarding school, MA0T N: had just turned eight, on the ship coming back from the States in 1,.1. My mother felt that she had taught us as much as she could at that stage, so we went off to boarding school in %odai, as it was called, a hill station.

  • Policy for Panhandling: How to Encourage Good Panhandling and Discourage Bad Gwendolyn Dordick, Brendan O’Flaherty, Jakob Brounstein and Srishti Sinha
    Think Piece 67 Policy for Panhandling: How to Encourage Good Panhandling and Discourage Bad Gwendolyn Dordick, Brendan O’Flaherty, Jakob Brounstein and Srishti Sinha City College, New York, New York Columbia University, New York, New York University of California at Berkeley and Columbia University, New York Columbia University, New York, New York \ Abstract_What does wise public policy toward panhandling look like? When a willing, reasonably well informed donor gives money to a panhandler, both are better off, and inequality goes down. Policy should encourage transactions like this. When a pedestrian is upset by a panhandler’s presence, does not give, and maybe even alters course, no one is better off and at least one person is worse off. Policy should discourage this kind of interaction. We examine an array of programs to deal with panhandling to see how well they encourage welfare-improving interactions and discourage welfare-reducing ones. Tentatively, credentialing programs are the most promising. \ Keywords_Panhandling, begging, panhandling policy, donor behaviour ISSN 2030-2762 / ISSN 2030-3106 online 68 European Journal of Homelessness _ Volume 12, No. 1, June 2018 Introduction Some people hate panhandlers. In The Mahabharata (book 13, section LX) Bhishma said: “Those persons who solicit others are said to annoy the world like thieves and robbers.” Some people love them. Peter Maurin (n.d.) wrote: “People who are in need and not afraid to beg give people not in need the occasion to do good for goodness’ sake.” Many jurisdictions try to regulate panhandlers (some to extirpate them), and, not surprisingly, these regulations are often controversial.
