Ed Harper Well, I was working for Arthur Doolittle[phonetic sp], a consulting firm here in Washington, doing public policy analysis in different areas, and an old friend of mine from high school days, Bud Krogh, asked me if I'd come over and have lunch with him and John Ehrlichman, and I did. And John said, "Well, when can you join us on the domestic policy staff?" And I said, "How about Friday?" So that's how I came to be on the staff. Timothy Naftali At -- Male Speaker One second. Timothy Naftali Put to what it was before, so -- this matters, please. Ed Harper Sure. Timothy Naftali Tell us some stories. Ed Harper Well, why I was there goes back a little before that meeting.

Kennedy Much attention is given to the anti-Catholicism of the Know- Nothing era of the 1850’s but little is paid to the equally virulent anti- Catholicism of the 1880’s and 1890’s when the fear of Catholics and the hostility displayed toward them was much greater than is generally believed. The relationship between Yankees and Irish in Boston in the last couple of decades of the nineteenth-century was marked by religious conflict, which explains much about both the defensive nature of Catholicism in Boston and the offensive nature of Irish-American

Hogarty This case study provides historical context and fresh perspectives for those seek- ing to understand the ways in which independent authorities operate in Massa- chusetts. More specifically, it examines the controversial performances of two separate authorities that deal with transportation problems. One involves a fail- ure to detect terrorists breaching security at Logan Airport; the other entails a bitter dispute that arose over the delay in raising tolls on the turnpike to pay for the Big Dig project. With both in mind, this study describes the countervailing pressures that converge on the executive branch of state government as it con- fronts the prospect of holding these two authorities accountable.
