The Ethical Criteria Apparently Assumed As Valid By Various Economic Theories Of Wages, Herbert L. Abbott Jan 1934

The Ethical Criteria Apparently Assumed As Valid By Various Economic Theories Of Wages, Herbert L. Abbott

University of the Pacific Theses and Dissertations

It is eminently logical that the bare first word of this essay should be as to the philosophical motive that makes it appear interesting and fruitful. If we let two circles represent, respectively, the fields of ethics and economics, it seems probable that they will somehow intersect, providing an area common to both. It is this presumptive borderland of ethics and economics that we intend to study under conditions of restricted method and scope. It should be confessed at once that our efforts will be necessarily and rigorously theoretical, our essay is one of partial clarification of the ethical character …


The History Of The Owens Valley And The Los Angeles Water Controversy, Richard C. Wood Jan 1934

The History Of The Owens Valley And The Los Angeles Water Controversy, Richard C. Wood

University of the Pacific Theses and Dissertations

This thesis was not written for the purpose of condemning the city of Los Angeles. The author has lived in the valley since 1918 and has been present during the period of conflict. Perhaps, for this reason, he is not qualified to judge the actions of the city. But the conclusions that have been made criticizing Los Angeles, the author sincerely believes, have come as a result of the investigation necessary to write this paper.

Even if it is granted that the criticisms are inspired by prejudice, if the reader accepts the facts presented in this thesis, or investigates the …

The Dahlgren Raid Against Richmond, March 28 - April 2, 1864, Julien Gunn Jr. Jan 1934

The Dahlgren Raid Against Richmond, March 28 - April 2, 1864, Julien Gunn Jr.

Honors Theses

The whole point of the raid was the destruction of as much of the supplies which might be used by the Confederates as possible and the release of those Federal prisoners which were incarcerated in Richmond. One has only to look ahead to the burning of Columbia, South Carolina to see what might have happened in Richmond.

The Oberammergau Passion Play As A Survival Of The Medieval Miracle Play, Carolyn Pulciver Timm Jan 1934

The Oberammergau Passion Play As A Survival Of The Medieval Miracle Play, Carolyn Pulciver Timm

University of the Pacific Theses and Dissertations

The contributions of the Mediaeval Miracle Play to that of the Passion Play of Oberammergau are like those of a parent to a child. Life and form have been inherited but the development has gone far beyond the origin. Yet certain elements have continually been preserved in this same form and life

The material for the story of the Oberammergau Play was in the Mediaeval Miracle Play. In both cases the dramatic climax was reached on Good Friday with the gospel of our Lord's death upon the cross. Christ's entry into Jerusalem, the story of His birth, His active career, …

Papal Sovereignty And The Creation Of The Vatican State, Harry E. Westermeyer Jan 1934

Papal Sovereignty And The Creation Of The Vatican State, Harry E. Westermeyer

University of the Pacific Theses and Dissertations

Papal sovereignty has been for centuries, and still 10, dominating force in the experience of the human race and is the fusionning of human institutions. Today it stands forth as a tremendous fan of history and by its very claims and power invites examination.


Handbook On Teacher Reading In Junior And Senior High School, Reba Galvin Mack Jan 1934

Handbook On Teacher Reading In Junior And Senior High School, Reba Galvin Mack

University of the Pacific Theses and Dissertations

Two thousand high school students in Wisconsin were tested recently in reading; one-third of them tested as sixth grade or below in reading ability.1 One of the most difficult problems confronting the schools of America today is "How shall we make good readers of our students?" That no educators are satisfied with the reading accomplishments in our schools is attested by the great number of articles on reading that appear in current periodicals and educational journals and by the increasing number of books on reading that are being published. So great is the flood on technical treatises on the …

Any conclusions reached will be only such as actual facts appear to warrant or to justify.


A History Of Elko, Nevada : A Frontier Town, 1868-1890, Lester W. Mills Jan 1934

A History Of Elko, Nevada : A Frontier Town, 1868-1890, Lester W. Mills

University of the Pacific Theses and Dissertations

The purpose of this paper is to present in brief form, far too brief for the wealth of material available, an account of the history of the town of Elko, Nevada. There has been no attempt to include in these pages all the interesting events which are traditional in the gossip of the town. Every effort has been made to include only such material as can be readily verified either by the memories of those still living who remember the events or, in cases where this has bailed or there has been an evident conflict of stories, by resort to …
