Moreover, indexes to each volume were kept by handwritten notation, in both pencil and ink, seldom in alphabetical order, and with numerous addenda and instances of inserted or corrected text. Researchers should exercise special and unusual latitude in an attempt to gather all the citations for a specific name. There are a number of variant patterns, but the most consistent apply to abbreviated versions of the name of the same person. "Cunningham, ~riggs"may be the same as "Cunningham, B." I,Dann, H. E ." may be the same as "Dann, H. H." (due to blurred or illegible handwriting). "Campbell, E. P." may be the same as "Campbell, President" (or Senator, Governor, Secretary, etc.). In many cases the index has knowingly been recreated literally from the original volume indexes with the mistakes intact to avoid an even more confusing, erroneous and unconfirmable interpretation.

  • Philippine Independence in U.S. History: a Car, Not a Train
    Philippine Independence in U.S. History: A Car, Not a Train Daniel Immerwahr Northwestern University Pacific Historical Review, forthcoming August 2020 The Fourth of July, 1946, was an unusual Independence Day for the United States. On the one hand, it commemorated the thirteen colonies’ dec- laration of independence from the British Empire. But on the other, it was the day when the Philippines, the largest colony the United States had ever held, gained freedom from the U.S. Empire. In Manila, a specially stitched U.S. flag with one star from every Philippine province descended the flagpole. Up the same pole rose the Philippine flag, previously banned by colonial officials. “There were not many dry eyes in the crowd,” an observer noted.1 Independence was a significant turning point, and scholars of Philippine history have been particularly attentive to its character. Did it secure freedom or merely grant “independence without decolonisation,” as Alfred W. McCoy has put it?2 They have asked, too, about the consequences of independence for domestic politics. There are disagreements, but what no one debates is that independence was a major event, sending large waves crashing in all directions.3 In U.S. historiography, however, the events of 1946 have made hardly a ripple. Discussions of the loss of the country’s largest colony, containing ap- proximately 18 million people at the time, rarely feature in the broad narratives about the United States that synthesize the field’s findings.

  • Prayer Practices
    Floor Action 5-145 Prayer Practices Legislatures operate with a certain element of pomp, ceremony and procedure that flavor the institution with a unique air of tradition and theatre. The mystique of the opening ceremonies and rituals help to bring order and dignity to the proceedings. One of these opening ceremonies is the offering of a prayer. Use of legislative prayer. The practice of opening legislative sessions with prayer is long- standing. The custom draws its roots from both houses of the British Parliament, which, according to noted parliamentarian Luther Cushing, from time ”immemorial” began each day with a “reading of the prayers.” In the United States, this custom has continued without interruption at the federal level since the first Congress under the Constitution (1789) and for more than a century in many states. Almost all state legislatures still use an opening prayer as part of their tradition and procedure (see table 02-5.50). In the Massachusetts Senate, a prayer is offered at the beginning of floor sessions for special occasions. Although the use of an opening prayer is standard practice, the timing of when the prayer occurs varies (see table 02-5.51). In the majority of legislative bodies, the prayer is offered after the floor session is called to order, but before the opening roll call is taken. Prayers sometimes are given before floor sessions are officially called to order; this is true in the Colorado House, Nebraska Senate and Ohio House. Many chambers vary on who delivers the prayer. Forty-seven chambers allow people other than the designated legislative chaplain or a visiting chaplain to offer the opening prayer (see table 02-5.52).

ENGLISH LITERACY: LEGAL SANCTION FOR DISCRIMINATION Arnold H. Leibowitz* I. Introduction Recently the United States Supreme Court decided two cases which brought to the fore the complex question of the degree of political participation per- mitted non-English-speaking persons in the United States. The first, Katzenbach v. Morgan,' sustained the constitutionality of section 4(e) of the Voting Rights Act of 19652 - legislation which had invalidated state English literacy tests applied to individuals who had acquired a sixth grade education in American schools where English was not the language of instruction. The second, Cardona v. Power,' questioned, without deciding, the constitutionality of English literacy tests applied to a person literate in another language. These two cases discussed only one area of American public life - voting where participation is legally dependent upon knowledge of the English language. Similar statutory prescriptions are found elsewhere covering access to, or opera- tions of, schools, businesses, public offices, and various governmental operations.

  • P ~ E S S I O N FILING RELATED Legislatrve PROCEDURES
    P~ESSIONFILING rn RELATED LEGISLATrVE PROCEDURES Takaaki Izumi Research Assistant Kenneth K. Lau, Acting Director Legislative Reference Bureau Request No. 7.405 University of Hawaii January, 1960 Honolulu, Hawaii The increasing volume of measures introduced in state legislatures, including Haiaiifs has created a wide-spread problem of legislative con- gestion, especially in the closing days of the sessions. There are many reasons for the increased volume of bills introduced; one practice which seems to burden the legislative process without producing any benefits is the introduction of duplicate measures and f'rejacketedgf bills which have no likelihood of passage at a current session, Kuch experimentation has been done by state legislatures in attempt- ing to cope with the problem, One such experiment is the pre-session filing of bills, Currently, 11 states are reported to have this device. However, the experiences of these states indicate that pre-filing by it- self cannot alleviate legislative congestion, Rather, the only basic solution appears to lie in reducing the number of measures introduced by the exercise of discretion and sound judgment on the part of individual legislators. Pre-filing, however, makes it possible to set a deadline for bill introduction earlier in the session, which would allow nmre time for cornnittee work and final consideration of measures without curtailing the over-all bill introduction period. An early cut-off date is probably the simplest and yet mst effective way to inprove the working conditions of
