Edy A dissertation submitted to the faculty of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the School of Journalism and Mass Communication. Chapel Hill 2012 Approved by: Jean Folkerts W. Fitzhugh Brundage Jacquelyn Dowd Hall Frank E. Fee, Jr. Barbara Friedman ©2012 Carolyn Martindale Edy ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii Abstract CAROLYN M. EDY: Conditions of Acceptance: The United States Military, the Press, and the “Woman War Correspondent,” 1846-1945 (Under the direction of Jean Folkerts) This dissertation chronicles the history of American women who worked as war correspondents through the end of World War II, demonstrating the ways the military, the press, and women themselves constructed categories for war reporting that promoted and prevented women’s access to war: the “war correspondent,” who covered war-related news, and the “woman war correspondent,” who covered the woman’s angle of war. As the first study to examine these concepts, from their emergence in the press through their use in military directives, this dissertation relies upon a variety of sources to consider the roles and influences, not only of the women who worked as war correspondents but of the individuals and institutions surrounding their work. Nineteenth and early 20th century newspapers continually featured the woman war correspondent—often as the first or only of her kind, even as they wrote about more than sixty such women by 1914.

America’s will to protect democracy in Europe and around the world was challenged, and proven, in West Berlin. The President ordered the Armed Forces to integrate, and the nation, driven by controversy at a political convention in the Trusts’ hometown of Philadelphia, focused on civil rights. The Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine was awarded for research on the toxic properties of DDT and its role, as an insecticide, in eradicating such diseases as typhus and malaria. A seminal report on journalism addressed the rights and responsibilities of a free press. These events, and many others, reverberated through the subsequent decades. The cold war, and its Introduction >> aftermath in Russia and Eastern Europe, dominated international affairs. Civil rights and equal opportunity for all Americans became and remains a paramount social policy concern. The environmental harm of insecticides and pollutants has shown us that society has a vital stake in determining how to apply the products of scientific and medical progress. The media continue to take stock of their place in our American democracy, especially in the current era of expanding means of communication.

  • The Population of Grove City Reached 3,674
    1910 Context: By the 1900s, the coal mining business was a major employer in the area. Pennsylvania‘s peak year of coal production was 1917 although it remained the number one coal mining state in the U.S.A. until 1930. The population of Grove City reached 3,674. The population of Pine Township was 2,289. This represented a combined population increase of 2,225 over the 1900 census. The Good Citizens League was active in community affairs. Note: R. E. English was President of the Good Citizens League. In 1910, he submitted a description of Grove City and the League‘s activities in which he stated: Its membership of 250 out of a population of about 4,000… …60 per cent of the entire population belongs to the five churches, … the town has no saloons and no policemen. …a school attendance of 900, which is very high … that 45 per cent of the boys go through the high school. The thoughtless will ask as to the need of an organization in such a place. This is where the League shows its constructive character. It proposes to keep the citizens and the town on their feet instead of allowing everything to go wrong and then getting busy. The main work of the League is done through committees. The work of some is obvious, the field of others is unique i Athletic Committee; Law Enforcing Committee, composed of two men who are known only to the president, which looks after illegal liquor selling, and after merchants who sell tobacco or cigarettes to minors; Taxpayers Committee, which is represented at every council meeting, which passes upon every contract, bond issue, and other financial matters; Health Committee, which watches such things as vacant lots, cesspools, sewage, rubbish and the protection of foods exposed for sale; Civic Committee, working mainly along the lines of civic art, the care and development of streets, the care of the banks of streams; and an Entertainment Committee which looks after needed speakers for problems under consideration and social activities generally.

  • 13 October 14, 1912 Marcus Hook J. N. Pew Dies
    CHESTER TIMES – October 14, 1912 PRESIDENT PEW TO BE BURIED TODAY – Head of Sun Company to be Interred in Mercer County – Pioneer In Oil Trade The funeral of Joseph Newton Pew, president of the Sun Company, which operates a large oil plant at Marcus Hook, will take place this afternoon at “Bonwoode”, Mercer County, where his father and family are buried. Services were held Saturday afternoon at his home in Bryn Mawr. Mr. Pew, who died last Thursday morning as a result of an attack of heart failure at his office in Philadelphia, was born at “Bonwoode” sixty-four years ago. “Bonwoode” has been owned by his family since its purchase by his great grandfather from the Indians, when western Pennsylvania was first opened for settlement. As a young man, Mr. Pew was one of the pioneers in the oil business. When in his early twenties he developed in a small way oil properties in the Bradford County fields, and with those properties started the extensive business of which he died president. In 1880 he incorporated the Sun Oil Company with a refinery at Toledo, Ohio. This company later became the Sun Company. When the Texas oil field was opened the Sun Company, under Mr. Pew’s direction, erected a large refinery at Marcus Hook, Pa., and built a fleet of steamships to carry the crude oil from Texas to this refinery on the Delaware and thence to Europe. Both the Toledo and Pennsylvania plants have been greatly increased in size since, and now constitute one of the largest competitors of the Standard and other oil companies.
