Appendix: Chronology: The United States, 1900-1995........... 203 PREFACE The purpose of the Washington State Oral History Program is to document the formation of public policy in Washington State. This is done by interviewing legislators, state officials, staff, and citizens who have been involved in state politics. Their recollections provide unique perspectives on elusive political activities. Producing oral history transcripts involves several steps. First, our Legislative Advisory Committee selects an interviewee. Program researchers gather background material from government publica- tions, personal papers, newspaper articles, and consultation with those closely associated with the interviewee. Next, we record a series of interviews lasting twelve to twenty hours. These interviews empha- size the subject’s political career. The interviewee is encouraged to talk about early experiences which may have led to public service or helped define political values. Important events, achievements, and disappointments are discussed. Much of our dialogue concerns the functions of formal and informal political processes, and how they mesh. When the interviews are complete, a verbatim transcript is prepared. The interviewer and interviewee correct grammar and punctuation. Repetitions are removed, but extensive substantive editing is unusual. The interviewee writes the dedication and provides the biography. The Department of Printing prints and binds the transcripts, and they are distributed to libraries and archives statewide. The original tapes, transcripts, and research documents are retained by the State Ar- chives. Interviewees may restrict access to these materials. Senator Bailey has chosen to sequester his records for a minimum of twenty years. The Oral History Program budget requires strict economy. Thus, the cursory table of contents is the only index. Chapter titles specify dominant themes, but discussion of some topics occurs in several chapters. We hope readers will be aided by Library of Congress subject headings describing the components of each chapter. Careful readers may find errors. Editing errors are ours. Recollection and interpretation varies as it does in other historical records–official documents, newspapers, letters, and diaries. It is the hope of Oral History Program staff that this work will help citizens better understand their political legacy. PREFACE Reading and editing the following pages of my oral history interviews was sometimes excessively boring. It seemed to be a venture in ex- treme egotism. However, I put it into perspective by recalling the fact that I was answering questions posed to me by the interviewer. Answers given are as I remember. My problem was not memory of the incidents as much as recalling the year. I had gone through so many legislative sessions, served on so many standing and special committees, and participated in so many other activities, that I could not always bring to mind the proper year. It is interesting when three former legislators get together for lunch and discuss some former activity. You get three versions, all differ- ent. They are all honest, but from different points of view. Most of the incidents here represent my memory of events in my eighteen years as Senate majority caucus chairman. That position usually put me in the center of major legislative decisions. I have tried to eliminate duplications, but since the interviews took place over a long period of time, some were inevitable. I hope I have removed most of them. My statements are from my scrapbooks and my memory–the latter perhaps faulty, but the former pretty accurate. The pontifications ex- press my own opinion. My wife says I have never hesitated ex- pounding on everything! Why change now? ROBERT BAILEY ACKNOWLEDGMENTS The Washington State Oral History Program owes thanks to many. Members of our Legislative Advisory Committee have consistently provided encouragement, ideas, and political savvy. They are also invariably friendly and cheerful. At present the committee includes Senators Eugene Prince, Sid Sny- der, Shirley Winsley, and Al Bauer; Representatives Ken Jacobsen, Sandra Romero, Don Carlson, and Kathy Lambert; Secretary of the Senate Marty Brown, and Chief Clerk of the House of Representa- tives Tim Martin. Ex officio members are Mr. Warren Bishop, Mr. David Nicandri, and former Senators Robert Bailey, George Scott, and Alan Thompson. We are grateful for the service of prior committee members: Senator Rosa Franklin; former Senators Alan Bluechel, Ray Moore, and Peter von Reichbauer; and Secretary of the Senate Gordon Golob. We depend on Secretary of State Ralph Munro for his loyal support. We commend Assistant Secretary of State Donald Whiting and Di- rector of Elections Gary McIntosh for their patience and willingness to offer advice. Our contract transcribers, Russ and Tina DeMaris, were quick, accu- rate, and willing to work on weekends. Our volunteer researcher, Janet Fisk, knows the scope, quality, and location of available re- sources. She also understands the subtleties of the legislative process. Our oral histories are printed by the Department of Printing. State Printer Lee Blankenship, Production Planner Evonne Anderson, Es- timator Kelley Kellerman, and Data Processing Manager Michael Cole are experts. They are also kind, understanding, and reliable. Robert Bailey has our gratitude for his conscientious review of his transcripts, and for writing his candid preface. All of those named gave more than we asked. It is a privilege to ac- knowledge them. ACKNOWLEDGMENTS My first acknowledgments must be to my

Charles Street Baltimore, MD 21218 (410) 516-5882 [email protected] 1 Workers in the American railroad and air transport industries still belong to unions.1 Fully 65.2 percent of workers in the railroad industry held union membership in 2014; in air transport, the figure was 40.5 percent. Union density is higher among railroad workers than among postal workers or than among public workers in every state but two. A distinct legal regime – a “state within a state”2 – developed to protect white railroaders, and withstood the assaults that have devastated American labor. While workers in the rest of the private sector organize under the National Labor Relations Act, the Railway Labor Act governs labor relations on the railroads and the airlines. Its consensual subgovernment among railroads, white unions, and the state has proven remarkably stable. But that labor-relations regime achieved stability precisely by avoiding large-scale ideological conflict. Rather, at the roots of stability lie political quiescence and racial intransigence in the critical New Deal and Fair Deal era. This paper situates the case of railway labor, comparing rail unions both across time and with other American labor regimes. At the end of the nineteenth century, the state repressed worker militancy (including from railroad workers) in the North and, by the extreme means of Jim Crow, in the

  • The Water Rises: Clarence C. Dills Battle for Grand Coulee Dam Columbia Magazine, Fall 2001: Vol
    The Water Rises: Clarence C. Dills Battle for Grand Coulee Dam Columbia Magazine, Fall 2001: Vol. 15, No. 3 By Kerry E. Irish After the inauguration of Franklin Delano Roosevelt in March 1933, the nation's capital entered a period of frenzy known as the Hundred Days. Washington senator Clarence Dill's primary role in the New Deal came in regard to the Communications Act of 1934 and in the battle for Grand Coulee in 1933. In his battle for the great dam, Dill had to contend with those who were opposed to the dam, both in his own state of Washington and in Washington, D.C.; with those who were zealous for the dam but knew little of how things were accomplished in the nation's capital; and with a president who had far greater concerns than Grand Coulee. In 1933 Clarence Dill helped outflank the dam's opponents, guided its supporters toward what was possible, and was the leading member of Washington's congressional delegation in gaining FDR's approval of the great dam. Dill's initial plan to secure the dam in March 1933 included incorporating it into an unemployment bill, but there were a number of possible ways to proceed. However, he recognized that the banking crisis paralyzed the nation and he must exercise patience in relation to Grand Coulee. This prudence and sense of priorities has been inaccurately cited as evidence that the dam meant little to Dill. He wanted the dam for many reasons: jobs, future development, long-term reclamation projects, and perhaps most importantly, as a lasting monument to his own political career.

  • You Can Make History Live!
    Washington History Day Topic Guide You can make history live! History Day is a contest for students that encourages the use of primary sources to get an up-close and personal view of an historical event. More than finding a summary in an encyclopedia or locating some pictures on the web, primary sources work to illustrate your topic from a first person point of view. And while you can find primary sources online, the real thrill of historical research comes from holding actual documents from that time in your hands! By doing your own research, asking and answering key historical questions you can become an expert on a topic and tell its story through a History Day project. The phrase “it isn’t just a day…it’s an experience” defines History Day. You become the historian! Extend the walls of the classroom into archives, college libraries and manuscripts collections, museums and other places that hold the information that you will need to interpret your topic. Learn more about your own family and community history, or some other topic that really matters to you. Use this Topic Guide to search for subjects within Pacific Northwest history that are of interest to you and locate primary source documents on those topics in nearby archives or libraries. You can browse for subjects in the following ways: 2019-20 Theme Overview: Breaking Barriers in History Explore topics that support the 2019-20 History Day Theme: Breaking Barriers in History • Browse by Subject Look at general topics in PNW History and then find specific issues you can investigate further • Browse by Time Period Find specific topics broken down by era (examples: 1800s, 1940s) • Browse by Library or Archives Use this method if you want to find out what collections are available at a specific archives or library You'll also want to make sure that any topic you select really reflects this year's theme.
