Las Vegas, Nevada. ^ Return to Table of Contents Historical Note North Las Vegas, Nevada began as 140 acres purchased by Thomas L. Williams in 1917. Williams split the land into seventy-nine lots and began selling them to people who wanted to enjoy a libertarian community. During the Great Depression, people who came to Southern Nevada looking for employment at the Hoover Dam, but were unsuccessful, squatted in Williams' lots. During World War II, defense spending again stimulated growth in Southern Nevada because of the various war industries that brought people to the area. The army gunnery school, now known as Nellis Air Force Base, brought people to the north side of the valley for work and military service. North Las Vegas was officially incorporated as a city in 1946. Source – Schumacher, Geoff. Sun, Sin & Suburbia: The History of Modern Las Vegas.

    Richard Russell, the Senate Armed Services Committee & Oversight of America’S Defense, 1955-1968

    BALANCING CONSENSUS, CONSENT, AND COMPETENCE: RICHARD RUSSELL, THE SENATE ARMED SERVICES COMMITTEE & OVERSIGHT OF AMERICA’S DEFENSE, 1955-1968 DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Joshua E. Klimas, M.A. * * * * * The Ohio State University 2007 Dissertation Committee: Approved by Professor David Stebenne, Advisor Professor John Guilmartin Advisor Professor James Bartholomew History Graduate Program ABSTRACT This study examines Congress’s role in defense policy-making between 1955 and 1968, with particular focus on the Senate Armed Services Committee (SASC), its most prominent and influential members, and the evolving defense authorization process. The consensus view holds that, between World War II and the drawdown of the Vietnam War, the defense oversight committees showed acute deference to Defense Department legislative and budget requests. At the same time, they enforced closed oversight procedures that effectively blocked less “pro-defense” members from influencing the policy-making process. Although true at an aggregate level, this understanding is incomplete. It ignores the significant evolution to Armed Services Committee oversight practices that began in the latter half of 1950s, and it fails to adequately explore the motivations of the few members who decisively shaped the process. SASC chairman Richard Russell (D-GA) dominated Senate deliberations on defense policy. Relying only on input from a few key colleagues – particularly his protégé and eventual successor, John Stennis (D-MS) – Russell for the better part of two decades decided almost in isolation how the Senate would act to oversee the nation’s defense.
