EDRS PRICE MF-$0.65 HC$13.16 DESCRIPTORS *Ecology; Environmental Criteria; *Environmental Education; Environmental Research; *Information Dissemination; *Mass Media; *News Media; Newspapers; Radio; Social Responsibility; Television IDENTIFIERS *San Francisco Bay Area ABSTRACT In an interdisciplinary study the role of the news media in environmental problems is examined. A description of the environmental problems of the San Francisco Bay Area and of the many news media which serve this area introduces this second volume of the study. The dimensions of the information explosion in the Bay Area news media are documented in quantitative terms. The study identifies the groups in the Bay Area which can be expected to use the information offered by the news media and the implications of this for the press. The difficulties for the press in reporting environmental deterioration and the damage caused by "environmental" advertising are pointed out. The study also examined: the difficulties of gaining access to information about the plans of public utilities; the interrelationship of a growing community and its newspapers and the possible effects of newspaper coverage of urban land use patterns; and the possibilities of getting along without the news media and becoming informed on one's own. The study concludes that the media have alerted the public to environmental hazards, but that continued efforts topinpointlocal problems will be necessary.

    This dissertation has been 62—2121 microfilmed exactly as received BARLOW, William Ray, 1930- CONGRESS DURING THE WAR OF 1812. The Ohio State University, Ph.D., 1961 History, modern University Microfilms, Inc., Ann Arbor, Michigan CONGRESS DURING THE WAR OF l8l2 DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By William Ray Barlow, B, A,, A. M. ***** The Ohio State University 1961 Approved by Adviser Department of History PREFACE . Most investigations into the War of I8l2 have emphasized causes to the exclusion of other phases. With the exception of various chap­ ters in Henry Adams' history of the Madison administration and brief passages in seme biographies, the role which Congress played has been largely ignored. This study attempts to tell the story of the United States first wartime Congress. Throughout the war, many events from a crucial financial situa­ tion to the burning of a Canadian village captured the attention of Congress. Response to these events varied from heated debate to the passage of laws. Since there existed no precedents or accepted pat­ terns which might have provided methods of conduct during the crisis. Congress was forced constantly to develop new means of resolving the complicated problems arising from the war. In some cases, no alter­ natives were possible, as probably was true of the over-all strategy of the war which was executive in origin. In others, however, choices existed, as in the type of government bank thought necessary to meet the financial crisis.
