Fellowship Day Marked No Defense Restaurant Plea Entered Check Madr
Newark overwhelmingly voted for a new charter and C ents a new form *>f government. It has ended comm ivi ion govern ment there. The first election under the new charter te May 11. There is already some-doubt over whether Newark te gaining anything in the exchange of governments. There are three candidates for mayor and no fewer than M can didates for council. The ballot looks like a P»af of raisin bread. Maybe Newark voters are smarter than others and will be able to find their way through the mate of candi dates. We hope so. »* ru n vt % u k i m n i Alma*! a year of pUnntng M»t imvparatMn wtll «v* mi t-> f»uit*r»w iw * i « M th* Mwitw c w iwnmal of th e (••uM ing «4 H n r r svtVuol the « M I W h«| twgan un*v,®pt, *H*«l» a* a oiMnmaitity pro)** t by th* Rnr*f Howl P T A t* n»w r»«M*v aa th * bWt**»* *e~«»p*c*ti»* effttrt t j M hurst lua eapwewetrrd in *«*ny • The week will begin epurefwt «!«■>« w tth P vavet IH> o n M m 1 an<t bo M U w e d on M <*4ay.

30 PARADISE LOCKED: the 1918 Influenza Pandemic in American Samoa John Ryan Mclane Introduction in Late 1918 American Samoa Dwel
sites: new series · vol 10 no 2 · 2013 DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.11157/sites-vol10iss2id215 – article – PARADISE LOCKED: The 1918 Influenza PandemIc In amerIcan Samoa John Ryan McLane abstracT The 1918 influenza pandemic killed roughly five percent of the global popula- tion. In Polynesia death rates were worse, reaching as high as a quarter of in- habitants in Western Samoa. Despite being less than 50 km from the disaster in Western Samoa, and despite the close cultural links with the New Zealand gov- erned colony, American Samoa successfully excluded the infection for years; becoming the largest known state to avoid any deaths from the pandemic. This success was facilitated by isolation, limited trade, a colonial government with absolute power but little oversight, and a working relationship between the US Navy and the traditional Samoan elites. While the crisis would fracture rela- tions with Western Samoa and further isolate American Samoa, the successful quarantine would be seen as a benevolent act by Samoans under American rule and would contribute directly to ongoing American control of the territory. InTroducTIon In late 1918 American Samoa dwelt in isolation, far from the charnel house of Europe or the rationed and censored homefronts of the combatants in this fi- nal year of the First World War. Yet on the other side of the globe the influenza pandemic of 1918 spread, its second deadly visit that year. This second wave devastated Europe and North America then raced along intercontinental trade routes, following the tracks of commerce and Empire to the furthest territories of an increasingly interconnected planet. -
Editor & Publisher International Year Books
Content Survey & Selective Index For Editor & Publisher International Year Books *1929-1949 Compiled by Gary M. Johnson Reference Librarian Newspaper & Current Periodical Room Serial & Government Publications Division Library of Congress 2013 This survey of the contents of the 1929-1949 Editor & Publisher International Year Books consists of two parts: a page-by-page selective transcription of the material in the Year Books and a selective index to the contents (topics, names, and titles) of the Year Books. The purpose of this document is to inform researchers about the contents of the E&P Year Books in order to help them determine if the Year Books will be useful in their work. Secondly, creating this document has helped me, a reference librarian in the Newspaper & Current Periodical Room at the Library of Congress, to learn about the Year Books so that I can provide better service to researchers. The transcript was created by examining the Year Books and recording the items on each page in page number order. Advertisements for individual newspapers and specific companies involved in the mechanical aspects of newspaper operations were not recorded in the transcript of contents or added to the index. The index (beginning on page 33) attempts to provide access to E&P Year Books by topics, names, and titles of columns, comic strips, etc., which appeared on the pages of the Year Books or were mentioned in syndicate and feature service ads. The headings are followed by references to the years and page numbers on which the heading appears. The individual Year Books have detailed indexes to their contents. -

Influenza Epidemic in Samoa
Setting a Barricade against the East Wind: Western Polynesia and the 1918 Influenza Pandemic John Ryan McLane A thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy At the University of Otago, Dunedin, New Zealand June 2012 ii iii Abstract This dissertation is a comparative analysis of the experience of several western Polynesian states during the 1918-1920 influenza pandemic, and in particular an inquiry into how the response to the second wave of this pandemic determined the mortality for each island group. Historically, Pacific island states have faced challenges in controlling infectious disease. Distance, isolation, lack of resources, and the turbulent nature of local political authority have limited the ability of these states to mount an effective response to the transmission of introduced infections. The territories of Polynesia attempted a wide range of social measures for control of the 1918-1920 influenza pandemic. Their success or lack thereof depended more upon political and economic variables than indigenous cultural or health factors. The colonial entities of Fiji, Western Samoa, and Tonga were sequentially infected with the 1918 pandemic strain of influenza by the SS Talune that departed from Auckland in November 1918. Despite being infected by the same strain of the virus, at the same time of year, and the significant number of cultural commonalities between these states, their experience of the influenza was broadly divergent. This work seeks to understand the forces that drove the differential outcomes. Fiji had warning of the approach of influenza, yet the colonial medical staff discounted the risk and faced strong economic pressure to avoid quarantine measures. -

Naber, Co-Chair Associate Professor Damon I. Salesa, Co-Chair, University of Auckland Associate Professor Vince M. Diaz, University of Illinois Urbana Champaign Associate Professor M. Sarita See, University of California Riverside Associate Professor Andrea L. Smith, University of California Riverside ©Kirisitina Gail Sailiata 2014 Acknowledgements This manuscript was made possible through the support of many and their immeasurable acts of kindness. While the dissertation is an exercise of independent research, I am reminded as always that these intellectual feats are made possible by the powerful generosity and brilliance of one’s surrounding community. In that spirit, I offer my many thanks. Many foundations and institutional spaces offered a supportive architecture in which to grow this research project. At the University of Michigan, the Horace H. Rackham School of Graduate Studies has been a generous sponsor through its many fellowship and grant programs. The Department of American Culture over the years has sustained this research project through workshops and grants. A true maven of logistics, I owe many thanks to graduate administrator, Marlene Moore, who patiently and expertly guided me through many academic milestones. Through the National Academy of Sciences, the Ford Foundation Predoctoral Fellowship has offered substantial financial and professional assistance in order to more fully develop interdisciplinary methods and skills. This research project emerged in large part due to the generous professional and financial care of the Mellon Mays Undergraduate Fellowship program, which was made possible by the Andrew W.
