Johnson, Special Message to the Congress on Housing and Community Development, January 27th, 1964. Introduction The final years of the Lyndon Johnson’s Great Society administration were anything but quiet. Punctuated by riots and assassinations, events seemed to bring America to the brink of chaos. In the midst of national anxieties over the Viet Nam war, civil rights, riots, and the rising cost of living, LBJ brought his housing and urban policy to a rousing crescendo. In 1968, the year Johnson withdrew from the presidential race and seemingly rendered himself the lamest of lame ducks, this master of passing legislation nonetheless managed to achieve two mammoth housing laws. The first, a part of the Civil Rights Act of 1968, which Johnson signed in April of that year in the aftermath of the slaying of Dr.

  • POLE RAISING: a CAMPAIGN ACTIVITY Introduction by George A
    POLE RAISING: A CAMPAIGN ACTIVITY Introduction by George A. Turner Often a special feature of political party rallies during presidential campaigns in the mid- 1800s involved raising a large pole for a candidate. Democrats used a hickory tree in honor of Andrew Jackson, known as "Old Hickory," and the father of the party. The Whigs favored a poplar tree for their pole raising events. When the Republicans came into existence, they adopted the poplar since many of its members were former Whigs. Selecting the right pole was an important decision. It needed to be proportioned and of great height. It took several people to cut and trim the tree, haul it to the meeting, and put it upright in a hole. Columbia Democrat and The Star of the North, two Democrat newspapers in Bloomsburg, each published an article in late summer1860 about two Democratic political meetings in Sugarloaf Township and Bloomsburg that raised "hickory poles." It was election time with a large majority of Pennsylvania Democrats supporting Vice President John C. Breckinridge, a Kentucky slave owner for President, Senator Joseph Lane of Oregon for Vice President, and Henry Foster for Governor. Pole Raising in Bloomsburg The Star of the North, August 22, 1860 The friends of Breckinridge, Lane and Foster, erected on last Saturday afternoon, between the house of five and six o’clock in East Bloomsburg, near the residence of Mr. Henry Wanich, a magnificent hickory pole, not much short of one hundred feet in length, with a streamer on the tope, and a splendid flag bearing the names of Breckinridge, Lane and Foster, our gallant Democratic nominees.

  • Charles Ingersoll: the ^Aristocrat As Copperhead
    Charles Ingersoll: The ^Aristocrat as Copperhead HE INGERSOLL FAMILY is one of America's oldest. The first Ingersoll came to America in 1629, just nine years after the T^Mayflower. The first Philadelphia Ingersoll was Jared Inger- soll, who came to the city in 1771 as presiding judge of the King's vice-admiralty court. Previously, he had been the King's colonial agent and stamp master in Connecticut. During the Revolution, Jared remained loyal to the Crown. He stayed in Philadelphia for the first two years of the war, but in 1777, when he and other Tories were forced to leave, he returned to Connecticut, where he lived quietly until his death in 1781.1 Jared's son, Jared, Jr., was the first prominent Philadelphia Inger- soll. He came to Philadelphia with his father in 1771, studied law, and was admitted to the bar in 1778. Unlike his father, Jared, Jr., wholeheartedly supported the Revolution. Subsequently, he was a member of the Constitutional Convention in 1787, a member of the city council, city solicitor, attorney general of Pennsylvania, and United States District Attorney. Politically, he was an ardent Fed- eralist, but politics and affairs of state were never his prime interest; his real interest was the law, and most of his time and energy was devoted to his legal practice.2 Jared, Jr.'s, son, Charles Jared Ingersoll, was probably the most interesting of the Philadelphia Ingersolls. Like his father, grand- father, and most of the succeeding generations of Ingersolls, Charles Jared was a lawyer. He began a practice in Philadelphia in 1802, but devoted much of his time to politics.
