The Daughters Of Charity In The Spanish-American War, Gertrude Fenner D.C. Oct 1987

The Daughters Of Charity In The Spanish-American War, Gertrude Fenner D.C.

Vincentian Heritage Journal

When the American government called for nurses during the Spanish-American War, 189 of the 282 sisters who responded were Daughters of Charity. Often under great hardship, they served the wounded in several hospitals within the United States and went to the battle lines in Cuba. They joined Spanish Daughters in Puerto Rico. They traveled on hospital ships and dealt with large numbers of typhoid and other fever cases at sea and on land. The Red Cross and other lay nurses often followed the Daughters’ techniques in nursing and ward management. The Daughters’ influence on Florence Nightingale and Clara Barton is …

In Celebration Of Constitutional Kindness: Soft Symbolism In A Hard Shell, James Audley Mclaughlin Sep 1987

In Celebration Of Constitutional Kindness: Soft Symbolism In A Hard Shell, James Audley Mclaughlin

West Virginia Law Review

The bicentennial of any constitution is surely an invitation to much sententious rhetoric. But the bicentennial of THE Constitution, The American Constitution of 1787, is an occasion for oratorical pyrotechnics of the first magnitude. So I shall make my brief tribute to note the importance of the Constitution as symbol - symbol of our national resolve to be a good society. Constitutions, in general, have two distinct functions: (1) As the outward sign and symbol of a society's fundamental commitment to social values and (2) perhaps more mundanely, as the framework for a political order. Our Constitution of 1787 (or …

John Timon And The Succession To The See Of Baltimore In 1851, Leonard R. Riforgiato C.M. Apr 1987

John Timon And The Succession To The See Of Baltimore In 1851, Leonard R. Riforgiato C.M.

Vincentian Heritage Journal

The internal Church politics surrounding the 1851 succession to the see of Baltimore reveal significant divisions in the hierarchy of the time. The archbishop of Baltimore would essentially also be the primate of the American church. John Timon, the first provincial of the American Vincentians and the bishop of Buffalo, was considered for the position. He was a native-born American, which many considered an important qualification for an archbishop of Baltimore. Whether it was done purposefully or not, Bishop Francis Kenrick of Philadelphia’s backing of Timon split the hierarchy, resulting in Kenrick’s appointment to Baltimore. Kenrick had incurred the enmity …


The Legend Of Jane Renfro, Stafford Poole C.M. Apr 1987

The Legend Of Jane Renfro, Stafford Poole C.M.

Vincentian Heritage Journal

There is a story that a person enslaved by Saint Vincent’s College in Missouri, Jane Renfro, was to be “sold down the river.” She was supposedly freed by a papal decree that no Catholic institution could sell enslaved persons. There was no such papal decision. Starting in 1840, Saint Vincent’s sold all its enslaved persons locally to comply with provincial John Timon’s policy of phasing out enslavement. Renfro was probably sold to or placed with a nearby family named Burns.

Values In The College Curriculum, Robert A. Preston Jan 1987

Values In The College Curriculum, Robert A. Preston

Sacred Heart University Review

The principles of a free society are based upon, that is, logically entail, a definite metaphysics. If an academic institution were permitted to espouse these political principles it would, at least logically, be giving credence to the metaphysics upon which the principles are based. Therefore, to avoid this, the current doctrine of academic freedom as requires neutrality on the part of the institution in order to avoid the imposition of any orthodoxy at all.

This then firmly fixes us on the horns of the dilemma. No free society can endure unless it can pass on to its youth the basic …


Two Firsts: A Comparative Study Of The American And The Polish Constitutions, Rett R. Ludwikowski Jan 1987

Two Firsts: A Comparative Study Of The American And The Polish Constitutions, Rett R. Ludwikowski

Michigan Journal of International Law

This article is only an introductory study to further inquiry. It focuses on the first two constitutions in the world: the American Constitution of 1787 and the Polish Constitution of May 3, 1791. Furthermore, the emphasis of this essay will be disposed of in a different manner than in the above mentioned studies. The author's purpose is not to add another article to the numerous works already devoted to American Constitutional development; instead, the following remarks will emphasize Polish constitutional history, and treat the American constitutional experience as a background for comparison.


Japanese-Style Worker Participation And United States Labor Law, William S. Rutchow Jan 1987

Japanese-Style Worker Participation And United States Labor Law, William S. Rutchow

Michigan Journal of International Law

This note will evaluate the current legal status of Japanese-style worker participation programs under the NLRA. First, it analyzes relevant sections of the NLRA and their interpretation by the Board and the courts. Second, the note describes various types of Japanese worker participation programs, and suggests how these programs can be legally implemented under current American labor law. Third, the note considers standards the Supreme Court may adopt to test the legality of worker participation programs in the future. Finally, this note recommends that the Supreme Court uphold those participation programs which are freely chosen by employees.


The United States-Canadian Automotive Trading Relationship And The Legality Of The Canadian Duty Remission Program, David A. Cohen Jan 1987

The United States-Canadian Automotive Trading Relationship And The Legality Of The Canadian Duty Remission Program, David A. Cohen

Syracuse Journal of International Law and Commerce

The automotive industry influences the entire U.S. economy. This huge industrial structure directly affects over four million jobs in the United States. In terms of foreign trade in 1985, the United States exported approximately $6 billion worth of new passenger cars to foreign nations; 96 percent of those automobiles went to Canada. This is an illustration of the U.S. automotive industry's direct interest in the U.S.-Canadian trading relationship, and the desire to obtain the potential benefits of a "broadened trading relationship" between the two countries. Presently, the United States and Canada have a unique dutyfree automotive trading arrangement which is …
