Public Accommodations And The Civil Rights Act Of 1964: A Surprising Success?, Brian K. Landsberg
Public Accommodations And The Civil Rights Act Of 1964: A Surprising Success?, Brian K. Landsberg
McGeorge School of Law Scholarly Articles
When the Civil Rights Act of 1964 became law the Johnson Administration had ample reason to worry that Title II of the Act, forbidding racial discrimination in public accommodations, would meet widespread, even violent resistance in the Deep South. The Supreme Court upheld Title II’s constitutionality, based on the Commerce Clause of the Constitution. Despite pockets of resistance, within a few years of the passage of the Act, racial discrimination in public accommodations had become the exception, not the rule. While some problems remain, Title II has, on the whole, been remarkably successful. The melting of resistance to Title II …

The European sovereign-debt crisis began in Greece when the government announced in December, 2009, that its debt reached 121% of GDP (or 300 billion euros) and its 2009 budget deficit was 12.7% of GDP, four times the level allowed by the Maastricht Treaty. The Greek crisis soon spread to other Economic and Monetary Union (EMU) countries, notably Ireland, Portugal, Spain and Italy. Using quarterly data for the 2000–2011 period, we implement a panel-vector autoregressive (PVAR) model for 11 EMU countries to examine the extent to which a rise in a country’s bond-yield spread or debt-to-GDP ratio affects another EMU countries’ …

My dear Johnson
Thanks for New Year's best wishes & for news of Sargents sad blows of fortune But Sargent will not down, He will soon be on his firm Mastodonic legs again strong & available as ever. I am trying to get the Sierra club to take plain open ground on the Yosemite question as to the advisability of recognizing it as a natural part of the Yosemite National Park, which it really is & sooner or later must become in fact.
I am also trying to write the confounded syndicate forest letters you & …

My dear Mr Johnson
In my haste yesterday to get off the Alaska M. S. I forgot the maps. I have no good map of the territory, Glacier Bay, or the Muir Glacier, but you can get all those through Miss S[cud?]more. A general sketch map of Alaska may easily be found, but the only maps for Glacier Bay & the Muir Glacier are those of Prof. Harry Fielding Reid. He worked two summers with good instruments borrowed from the Coast Survey in making them. I think they were published by the Appletons. You can easily …

Raymond, Cal., Feb. 13.
1893
Dear Mr. Johnson:
Yours of the 13[th?] rec’d yesterday. I am now in communication with Robinson from whom I rec’d a letter on Saturday, asking me to come to San Francisco, with the prospect of getting work on the Call in the Yosemite business and perhaps permanently. The request struck me when “dead broke”, or I would have been in the city by this time, although I have been preparing, and am all ready, to publish a little country paper here, the first number to appear either this or next week. I would have …

Dear Mr Johnson,
I am at home & have not made the King's River trip at all. After trying to get Keith & others to go with me I made up my mind to go alone & set the day for starting but my father-in-laws health was evidently failing so fast I had to give up the excursion. And it is well I did for in less than a week from the date of my intended start he died. He left us on the last day of October passing on to the better land calmly and …

My dear Johnson -
I mean to start for Kings River Yosemite next Monday the 27th to take another dip into the Canon & gather fresh facts for that article you want. I hope to have the M.S. ready by December unless something unusual prevents. I saw Robinson the other day. He wants to borrow money, but does not seem to be earning much. I dont think the sketches he showed me for the Kings R. Yo. are very teling Ill send some of my own

I am exceedingly unwilling to get him into trouble of any kind. The "grab," however, is an especially greedy one. Leonard I do not blame, for he is a poor man, struggling to support a wasteful half-breed family. If we stop this grab it will show the Washburns more than anything else that would be done just now that we mean business and can effectively fight the monopoly. I think that the reason that Leonard was not sent to "prove up" on June 16 was because I had already told J. J. Cook, (Stoneware House,) and who is a …
