  • Truman's First Nomination for Senator
    TRUMAN’S FIRST NOMINATION FOR SENATOR WAS STOLEN By EWING YOUNG MITCHELL Former Assistant Secretary of Commerce (In New Deal Little Cabinet, 1933-1935) The first nomination for United States Senator of Harry S. Truman was stolen. This has never been denied. It cannot be successfully denied as the election figures given below clearly prove. Truman was first nominated for United States Senator in the Missouri primary in August, 1934. At that time Jackson County, Missouri, including Kansas City, was in the clutches of the Pendergast democratic machine, the most corrupt, the most brazen, gang of thieves who ever looted an American city. Its power was derived from complete control of the elections held in Kansas City and Jackson County. The machine’s control extended not only to all offices in the city and county, and the millions of dollars spent by them annually, but into the economic life of the community as well. It had several corporations through which it transacted a tremendous amount of business, including The Ready Mixed Concrete Company, Midwest Paving Company, Midwest Pre- cote Company, Midwest Asphalt & Material Company, a fire insurance company, a wholesale liquor company, an oil company and a soft drink company, to mention only some of them. The Machine Forced Its Wares On The People No citizen was allowed to use anything built of concrete not bought of the Ready Mixed Concrete Company. A house built of other concrete was closed by city inspectors and its use refused to its owner. The owner of a lot desiring to build an oil station could not get a building permit from the city council until his tenant had signed an agreement with the Pendergast oil company to buy all his oil and gas from it as long as he was in business.

  • AMERICAN NEUTRALITY DEBATE: 1940 a Re-Creation of the Conflict Preceding World War II, Debating Whether Or Not the United States Should End Its Neutrality
    THE AMERICAN NEUTRALITY DEBATE: 1940 A re-creation of the conflict preceding World War II, debating whether or not the United States should end its neutrality THOMAS R. BROCK, now deceased, wrote THE AMERICAN NEUTRALITY DEBATE: 1940. Tom graduated from Lakeland College in Sheboygan, Wisconsin, and earned his M.A. in Contemporary American Studies from Ball State University in Muncie, Indiana. For Interact Tom also wrote three other debate re-creations as well as individual learning projects—TELEVISION and AUTOMOBILE. He taught social studies at Baraboo High School, Baraboo, Wisconsin, where he coached varsity football and track and field. Copyright ©1992, 1980 Interact 10200 Jefferson Boulevard P.O.

PurpOse When high school students assess American involvement in World War II, two of their more often repeated remarks are “It was a popular war” and “Americans were more patriotic then than they are today.” Comparing World War II to more recent conflicts in Korea and Vietnam—military operations whose wisdom a number of Americans questioned and even condemned—makes it easy to understand why such notions concerning World War II evolved. However, a thorough study of America from 1937–1940 reveals a real struggle taking place between those Americans who desired to avoid Europe’s wars at all costs and others who wanted to intervene.

  • CHAIRMEN of SENATE STANDING COMMITTEES [Table 5-3] 1789–Present
    CHAIRMEN OF SENATE STANDING COMMITTEES [Table 5-3] 1789–present INTRODUCTION The following is a list of chairmen of all standing Senate committees, as well as the chairmen of select and joint committees that were precursors to Senate committees. (Other special and select committees of the twentieth century appear in Table 5-4.) Current standing committees are highlighted in yellow. The names of chairmen were taken from the Congressional Directory from 1816–1991. Four standing committees were founded before 1816. They were the Joint Committee on ENROLLED BILLS (established 1789), the joint Committee on the LIBRARY (established 1806), the Committee to AUDIT AND CONTROL THE CONTINGENT EXPENSES OF THE SENATE (established 1807), and the Committee on ENGROSSED BILLS (established 1810). The names of the chairmen of these committees for the years before 1816 were taken from the Annals of Congress. This list also enumerates the dates of establishment and termination of each committee. These dates were taken from Walter Stubbs, Congressional Committees, 1789–1982: A Checklist (Westport, CT: Greenwood Press, 1985). There were eleven committees for which the dates of existence listed in Congressional Committees, 1789–1982 did not match the dates the committees were listed in the Congressional Directory. The committees are: ENGROSSED BILLS, ENROLLED BILLS, EXAMINE THE SEVERAL BRANCHES OF THE CIVIL SERVICE, Joint Committee on the LIBRARY OF CONGRESS, LIBRARY, PENSIONS, PUBLIC BUILDINGS AND GROUNDS, RETRENCHMENT, REVOLUTIONARY CLAIMS, ROADS AND CANALS, and the Select Committee to Revise the RULES of the Senate. For these committees, the dates are listed according to Congressional Committees, 1789– 1982, with a note next to the dates detailing the discrepancy.

  • The Politics and Poetry of Advice and Consent: Congress Confronts the Roosevelt Administration During the State Department Confirmation Incident of 1944
    The Politics and Poetry of Advice and Consent: Congress Confronts the Roosevelt Administration during the State Department Confirmation Incident of 1944 NICHOLAS EVAN SARANTAKES hsista tlt Professor of History Texas AGM University, Conz nterce An old saying claims that politics makes for strange bedfellows. President Franklin D. Roosevelt, and for that matter most informed Americans, believed that when a slate of nominees for subcabinet positions in the State Department became front-page news on both coasts for two weeks. In an event that befuddled contemporary observers, the country watched a coalition of liberal New Deal senators lead a bipartisan effort to block Roosevelt's nominees, claiming they were too conservative, only to come within avote of rejecting the most liberal of the group. However, there is nothing bizarre about this episode. Although individual senators had their own reasons to oppose par- ticular nominees and used whatever rhetoric they believed necessary, the Senate as a whole used the confirmation of this group to inform the president that the legislative branch wanted and was going to have a voice in postwar U.S. foreign policy. Previous writers on this period have failed to do this incident justice. In his mem- oirs, Tom Connally, chair of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, makes no men- tion of the event. Archibald MacLeish, one of the nominees, misstates and misleads in a posthumously published oral history. Dean Acheson, MacLeish's best friend and fellow nominee, dismisses the confirmation crisis as both sadistic and silly1Biographers and historians have treated this event lightly, if at all. Robert A.

  • FUTURE the Newsweekly for Today Vol. I No. 3 Kansas City, Missouri
    FUTURE The Newsweekly for Today Vol. I No. 3 Kansas City, Missouri, January 25, 1935 Single Copy 5 Cents A MACHINE DEMOCRAT? SNAPSHOTS OF THE WEEK Louisiana isn’t fooling. Louis Bourgeois, youthful president of the Square Deal Association, out to restore the constitutional liberty usurped from the state by Huey Long, says the membership of the Association runs into thousands. In half a score of parishes civilian soldiers are drilling, without weapons it is true, but it is reported that a large number of those enrolled have guns at home and are ready to use them in a good cause. This matter of fooling all the people and part of the people has been gone into before. And apropos of soldiers, it is gratifying to the public spirit of Kansas City to know that Police Director Higgins has been made a colonel on the governor’s staff. We wonder if his awakened sense of military punctillio was responsible for his orders to the police force to straighten up and look snappy, or whether the appointment was the result of that gesture of the stern disciplinarian. The police came into action in Ridgefield, New Jersey, recently when Miss Adelaide Kenna, age forty-nine, threw a small ax through a window where a birth control exhibit was on display. The display was within the law but not within Miss Kenna’s sense of the fitness of things. Having wrecked the window she appealed to a policeman to accompany her on further raids against the menace. Instead she accompanied him. The result has not been made public.
