Truro Log August 2012 Truro Council on Aging
TRURO LOG AUGUST 2012 TRURO COUNCIL ON AGING WWW.TRURO-MA.GOV/COA William “Bill” Worthington explained to me the reason that he volunteers is because of the example of his parents. In the 60’s his father inherited some money and with it he built the Pamet Harbor Yacht Club and the floats. He bought a power launch, too. He and Charlie Francis also built the small house nearby. He got some boats and hired someone to teach sailing. Harriet Hobbs was one of the first students. Bill remembers that they tied knots on rainy days. In the 80’s Ansel Chaplin and Charles Davidson created the Conservation Trust and Bill’s mother was on the Board. Both parents also volunteered in Connecticut. William Worthington Almost as soon as Bill moved out here in 2001, Ansel Senior of the Year Chaplin suggested that he join the Planning Board. He was Chair for a little while and is still on the Board. He is newly on the Provincetown Water and Sewer Board which because of the new North Unionfield well site, requires 3 members INSIDE THIS ISSUE from Truro. Truro has leased this well site - Provincetown does not Senior Citizen of the Year own it which is a different set-up from the other Truro well sites. Bill is also on the Truro Water Resources Oversight Committee. Beyond Store Bought: They are working on a comprehensive water management plan Eco-Chic Gift Wrapping concerning nitrate intrusion. Bill is on the Energy Committee, and for a while he was Truro’s Live Your Life Well representative to the Cape Light Compact. -

LMisJaciue i f add. A SOUVENIR OF |fl as sac hit setts S^jjislattfrs l8 95 VOLUME IV. (Issued A nnually) A. M. BRIDGMAN BROCKTON, MASS. Copyrighted 1X95, by A. M. BRIDGMAN. \ GEO. H. ELLIS, PRINTER, 141 FRANKLIN STREET, BOST PHOTOGRAPHS FROM NOTMAN, PARK STREET HALFTONES FROM HUB ENGRAVING CO PREFACE. HP HE "Souvenir" of 1895 is the first to contain recoras of men who sat in the * State House Extension to make and unmake laws tor the state. It was a Legislature remarkable for containing the largest proportion of members from one political party ever known. The House contained 194 Republicans and 46 Democrats, while in the Senate there were only four Democrats to 36 Republicans. There were not enough even of the former to secure a roll call. And yet there was no unusual partisan legislation attempted. The majority always passes more or less legislation against the protest of the minority. The business of the session, although of greater volume than ever, was completed decently and in order and prorogation reached at the unusually early date of 1S95 was also remarkable for June 5, or the earliest since 1SS8. The session of the unusual number of deaths among its members. One Senator and two Representatives elect died without taking the oath of office, while two died after having served several weeks, and one on the very morning of the day the Legislature was prorogued. This "Souvenir" contains the portrait of every "Legislator" of the state, whether in Senate or House or Congress, as well as all members of the Executive Department. -

Marauding Youth and the Christian Front 233
S.H. Norwood: Marauding Youth and the Christian Front 233 Marauding Youth and the Christian Front: Antisemitic Violence in Boston and New York During World War II STEPHEN H. NORWOOD In October 1943, the New York newspaper PM declared that bands of Irish Catholic youths, inspired by the Coughlinite Christian Front, had for over a year waged an “organized campaign of terrorism” against Jews in Boston’s Dorchester district and in neighboring Roxbury and Mattapan. They had violently assaulted Jews in the streets and parks, often inflicting serious injuries with blackjacks and brass knuckles, and had desecrated synagogues and vandalized Jewish stores and homes. The New York Post stated that the “beatings of Jews” in Boston were “an almost daily occurrence.” State Senator Maurice Goldman, representing 100,000 Jews, residing mostly in Dorchester, Roxbury, and Mattapan, joined by four state representatives from those areas, declared to Governor Leverett Saltonstall that their constituents were living “in mortal fear.” Many Jews could not leave their homes, even in daylight, frightened of being beaten by youths from adjacent Irish Catholic neighborhoods like South Boston, Fields Corner, and the Codman Square area, who deliberately entered Dorchester, Roxbury, and Mattapan to go “Jew hunting.” The New York Yiddish daily The Day called the antisemitic violence that had occurred in Dorchester during the previous year “a series of small pogroms.”1 Neither Boston’s police nor its Catholic clergy made any serious effort to discourage the antisemitic -

What began as an adventurous idea to celebrate the written word on Nantucket has grown exponentially to become a gathering of some of the most dynamic writers and speakers in the world. The island has a rich literary tradition, and we are proud that the Nantucket Book Festival is championing this cultural imperative for the next generation of writers and readers. Look no further than the Book Festival’s PEN Faulkner Writers in Schools program or our Young Writer Award to see the seeds of the festival bearing fruit. Most recently, we’ve added a visiting author program to our schools, reaffirming to our students that though they may live on an island, there is truly no limit to their imaginations. Like any good story, the Nantucket Book Festival hopes to keep you intrigued, inspired, and engaged. This is a community endeavor, dedicated to enriching the lives of everyone who attends. We are grateful for all of your support and cannot wait to share with you the next chapter in this exciting story. With profound thanks, The Nantucket Book Festival Team Mary Bergman · Meghan Blair-Valero · Dick Burns · Annye Camara Rebecca Chapa · Rob Cocuzzo · Tharon Dunn · Marsha Egan Jack Fritsch · Josh Gray · Mary Haft · Maddie Hjulstrom Wendy Hudson · Amy Jenness · Bee Shay · Ryder Ziebarth Table of Contents Book Signing ......................1 Weekend at a Glance ..........16-17 Schedules: Friday ................2-3 Map of Events .................18-19 Saturday ............ -

OFFICERS OF THE EXECUTIVE BRANCH OF THE GOVERNMENT [ 1 ] EXPLANATORY NOTE A Cabinet officer is not appointed for a fixed term and does not necessarily go out of office with the President who made the appointment. While it is customary to tender one’s resignation at the time a change of administration takes place, officers remain formally at the head of their department until a successor is appointed. Subordinates acting temporarily as heads of departments are not con- sidered Cabinet officers, and in the earlier period of the Nation’s history not all Cabinet officers were heads of executive departments. The names of all those exercising the duties and bearing the respon- sibilities of the executive departments, together with the period of service, are incorporated in the lists that follow. The dates immediately following the names of executive officers are those upon which commis- sions were issued, unless otherwise specifically noted. Where periods of time are indicated by dates as, for instance, March 4, 1793, to March 3, 1797, both such dates are included as portions of the time period. On occasions when there was a vacancy in the Vice Presidency, the President pro tem- pore is listed as the presiding officer of the Senate. The Twentieth Amendment to the Constitution (effective Oct. 15, 1933) changed the terms of the President and Vice President to end at noon on the 20th day of January and the terms of Senators and Representatives to end at noon on the 3d day of January when the terms of their successors shall begin. [ 2 ] EXECUTIVE OFFICERS, 1789–2005 First Administration of GEORGE WASHINGTON APRIL 30, 1789, TO MARCH 3, 1793 PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES—GEORGE WASHINGTON, of Virginia.
