Willard of the 738th Field Artillery Batt alion’s penned this article for The Cannon Courier in 1945. This was his account of the Buchenwald concentration camp, which was liberated by American forces at 3:15 p.m. on April 11, 1945. Willard visited the camp the morning of April 22, 1945. I will tell you what I saw yesterday with my own eyes because I was there in person. It was no propaganda, no unoffi cial newspaper, radio or magazine reports — just a plain fact. On my way home from London, England, I visited, to- gether with two lieutenant colonels, Hitler’s Buchenwald concentration camp, which is located about fi ve miles southwest of Weimar, Germany. This has been described by many prisoners as one of the “bett er” camps. We were met at the entrance of this camp by one who had formerly been an internee of this camp, a Czech civil- ian prisoner. He spoke English sparingly, but there was litt le need for him to speak at all, as each scene spoke for itself. He off ered his assistance as a guide. We assured him that we were very appreciative of his service and as our time was limited, to show us only a few of the scenes, and to be brief. Our guide stated that during the past six years, of 21 nationalities, including British and American, 51,000 had been murdered and one million died a natural death (I found out later what he meant by natural death).

Meesig and Frank Horvath School of Criminal Justice Michigan state University Abstract This paper reviews three unpublished national surveys conducted over the past 30 years on the use of pre-employment polygraph screening by law enforcement agencies in the United states. The review shows that the number of agencies using the technique increased from 19% in 1964 to 62% of the largest agencies in 1991. It also shows a surprising consistency among agencies regarding reasons for use and the benefits and circumstances of use. It concludes that agency experiences with polygraph screening over the years have been quite favorable and that the motivating reasons for its use are well-estab­ lished. During the past three decades polygraph testing has been used extensively to screen job applicants for both private and public sector employers in the United states. During this period, however, the use of such testing became increasingly controversial.

  • Tennessee Symbols and Honors
    514 TENNESSEE BLUE BOOK Tennessee Symbols And Honors Official Seal of the State Even before Tennessee achieved statehood efforts were made by local govern- mental organizations to procure official seals. Reliable historians have assumed that as early as 1772 the Articles of the Agreement of the Watauga Association authorized the use of a seal. The Legislature of the state of Franklin, by an official act, provided “for procuring a Great Seal for this State,” and there is also evidence that a seal was intended for the Territory South of the River Ohio. The secretary of that territory requested the assistance of Thomas Jefferson in March, 1792, in “suggesting a proper device” for a seal. There is no direct evidence, however, that a seal was ever made for any of these predecessors of Tennessee. When Tennessee became a state, the Constitution of 1796 made provision for the preparation of a seal. Each subsequent constitution made similar provisions and always in the same words as the first. This provision is (Constitution of 1796, Article II, Section 15; Constitution of 1835, Article III, Section 15; Constitution of 1870, Article III, Section 15) as follows: There shall be a seal of this state, which shall be kept by the governor, and used by him officially, and shall be called “The Great Seal of the State of Tennessee.” In spite of the provision of the Constitution of 1796, apparently no action was taken until September 25, 1801. On that date committees made up of members from both the Senate and the House of Representatives were appointed.
