Fm 3-130, U.S. Army Chemical, Biological And Radiological (Cbr) Intelligence, 1958, Robert Bolin , Depositor

United States Department of Defense Military Intelligence

An appropriate alternative title for this manual would be “Chemical Corps Intelligence.” When this manual was issued the Chemical Corps was a bureau in the Headquarters, Department of the Army, headed by a general officer called the Chief Chemical Officer (CCO), as well as a branch of the army to which officers and enlisted men were appointed. Among the duties of the CCO were the development and supply of chemical, biological, and radiological (CBR) weapons and equipment, the training of chemical units for service in the field, management of the careers of officers in the Chemical Corps branch, and the …

Physics, Chapter 21: Vibrations And Sound, Henry Semat, Robert Katz Jan 1958

Physics, Chapter 21: Vibrations And Sound, Henry Semat, Robert Katz

Robert Katz Publications

There are two aspects of sound: one is the physical aspect which involves the physics of the production, propagation, reception, and detection of sound; the other, which is the sensation of sound as perceived by the individual, depends upon physiological and psychological effects. It is not desirable to separate the two aspects of sound completely, but the main emphasis in this book must necessarily be on the physical aspect. In this chapter we shall consider mostly musical sounds. A vocabulary has been developed to describe the sensation experienced when a musical sound is heard. Such terms as the pitch of …


German Literature In Exile, W.M. K. Pfeiler Aug 1957

German Literature In Exile, W.M. K. Pfeiler

University Studies (University of Nebraska) (1888–1984)

The present monograph is the first of several of my studies dealing with the German literature that originated in exile since 1933. By calling it "German Literature in Exile" it is kept in mind that it is not a homogeneous literary entity but a part, although an important one, of the whole of German Literature, of which the Austrian and Swiss Literatures are essential components with individual characteristics. The designation used is basically a Formalkategorie for reasons of necessary reference. There are, however, traits of distinction: a militant humanism and a preoccupation with problems peculiar to the existence in exile. …


Robert Mcalmon: Expatriate Publisher And Writer, Robert E. Knoll Aug 1957

Robert Mcalmon: Expatriate Publisher And Writer, Robert E. Knoll

University Studies (University of Nebraska) (1888–1984)

Though Robert MeAlmon has never received critical or popular acclaim, he deserves attention. An important expatriate in Paris in the Twenties, he was a writer, a publisher and a friend of the great and near-great who lived and worked there. He drank, talked, quarrelled with all of them; and we can understand them better for knowledge of him. McAlmon wrote a great deal, two short novels, four volumes of stories, four volumes of poems and a long autobiography. If these books do not earn him a place among the foremost novelists and poets of his time, they ought not be …


A Midsummer Night's Dream And The Meaning Of Court Marriage, Paul A. Olson Jun 1957

A Midsummer Night's Dream And The Meaning Of Court Marriage, Paul A. Olson

Department of English: Faculty Publications

The opinion that A Midsummer Night's Dream is largely a shimmering fabric of "moonlight, with a touch of moonshine" has become stock among students of Shakespeare. One rephrases habitual insights concerning gossamer and magic whenever one treats of the work. But there is more to the play than a dream. The efforts of historical scholars to place this comedy in the setting of its dramatic tradition, to see it as " sui generis, a ' symbolical' or masque-like play" suggest that we ought to revise our romantic preconceptions of its structure and theme. Elizabethan masques usually afforded pleasures more …


The Poetic Style Erich Kastner, John Winkelman May 1957

The Poetic Style Erich Kastner, John Winkelman

University Studies (University of Nebraska) (1888–1984)

The existing studies of the poetry of Erich Kiistner deal almost exclusively with aspects of its content, whether in an ideational or a concrete sense, and have at best only peripheral reference to the esthetic realization of this content. That is, these studies consider the poems primarily in their function as means of communication or even as unwitting autobiography, and in effect ignore the poems in order to "penetrate" to that which they communicate or reveal.

Yet the relation of external and internal in any esthetic object is just the reverse: one would have to penetrate past that which the …

Biological Indices Of Water Pollution, With Special Reference To Fish Populations, Peter Doudoroff, Charles E. Warren Jan 1957

Biological Indices Of Water Pollution, With Special Reference To Fish Populations, Peter Doudoroff, Charles E. Warren

Other Publications in Wildlife Management

A number of investigators have very recently published discussions having to do with biological indices and biological measures of water pollution (1) (2) (7) (13) (14) (15) (16) (26) (27) (28) (29) (30) (36) (38). Fjerdingstad (12) has discussed some of the pertinent European literature. The fundamental concepts presented by these authors are not original, for the idea that aquatic organisms can be useful "indicators" of environmental conditions, and particularly of the degree of pollution of water with organic wastes, has a long history (12). Because of certain novel features and the relatively wide scope of the studies, and the …

Jerome Frank’S Attack On The “Myth” Of Legal Certainty, Julius Paul Jan 1957

Jerome Frank’S Attack On The “Myth” Of Legal Certainty, Julius Paul

Nebraska Law Review

One of the significant contributions of contemporary American legal realism has been the discussion of the origins, purpose, and efficacy of legal rules. Some writers have been extremely critical of the worship of legal rules and of the feeling by the lay public that rules can provide exactness and certainty in the law. Jerome Frank has been the most noteworthy exponent of this view, particularly in his pioneer book, Law and the Modern Mind, published in 1930.

Frank would be the last person to deny the existence and the utility of legal rules. Yet, his attack on those writers …


Correlation Between Grades In Engineering Physics And Performance In Engineering Curricula, Donald Hoyt, Louis D. Ellsworth, Robert Katz Dec 1956

Correlation Between Grades In Engineering Physics And Performance In Engineering Curricula, Donald Hoyt, Louis D. Ellsworth, Robert Katz

Robert Katz Publications

A survey of grades in Engineering Physics I at Kansas State College showed that the inner structure of the course was highly consistent. The correlation coefficient between the average of the first three tests and the final grade was about 0.88. More significantly, valuable prognostic data could be obtained from the final grade in the course. The correlation coefficient between the Engineering Physics I grade and the final grade point average of students who completed the course was about 0.83. Only 21% of the students initially failing the course successfully completed an engineering degree, while about 75% of the A, …

Civil Defense And Law, Part Ii, Val Peterson Jan 1956

Civil Defense And Law, Part Ii, Val Peterson

Nebraska Law Review

American lawyers dare not ignore the legal dislocations that would result from an attack upon this country. A new dimension to the responsibilities of the legal expert is the protection of the legal structure around which is built the nation’s economy. The threat to the national legal machinery is a real one. This danger probably cannot be eliminated; however, intelligent planning can very definitely lessen the impact of severe destruction. Careful, skillful planning, reduced to practical terms and applied judiciously to the daily problems with which we are most familiar, can do much toward reducing the effects of devastating disaster.


Settlement In The Santa Cruz Area: A Proposed Program For The Development Of An Area With European Immigrants And Bolivian Indians, Ernesto Wende-Frankel Aug 1955

Constitutional Law—Segregation In Recreation, Ira S. Epstein, Gerry L. Fellman Jan 1955

Constitutional Law—Segregation In Recreation, Ira S. Epstein, Gerry L. Fellman

Nebraska Law Review

Since the United States Supreme Court in Brown v. Board of Education of Topeka held segregation in public schools to be a denial of equal protection of the law, the question arises whether the “separate but equal” doctrine should be retained in other areas. The purpose of this note is to trace the “separate but equal” doctrine and to re-examine its validity in education and recreation after the Brown case.

I. “Separate but Equal” before the Fourteenth Amendment

II. “Separate but Equal” Established in the Supreme Court

Sovereign Liability For Tortious Acts Of Its Wards Occasioned By Failure To Exercise Proper Custodial Care, Charles K. Thompson Jan 1955

Sovereign Liability For Tortious Acts Of Its Wards Occasioned By Failure To Exercise Proper Custodial Care, Charles K. Thompson

Nebraska Law Review

Periodically the public reads of the injury of a citizen other than a state employee at the hands of a former mental patient who either escaped because of inadequate guarding or was released from a state or federal institution because of an improper release-diagnosis. The public assumes that the injured party will be reimbursed, but who will bear the burden of reimbursement? Confinement often leaves the patient judgment proof; the employee whose negligence allowed the escape is frequently judgment proof; the employee who negligently certified the release of an unrehabilitated patient is clothed with immunity from suit on his release-discretion; …


Has Nebraska Solved The Problem Presented By The Uncompensated Victims Of Automobile Accidents?, Robert E. Roeder Jan 1955

Has Nebraska Solved The Problem Presented By The Uncompensated Victims Of Automobile Accidents?, Robert E. Roeder

Nebraska Law Review

Nine years ago the Nebraska Legislature enacted the Motor Vehicle Safety Responsibility Act in an attempt to solve the pressing social problem presented by uncompensated victims of Nebraska automobile accidents. The Supreme Court of Nebraska in upholding the act stated that its purpose was to protect the motoring public from the operation of motor vehicles by financially irresponsible persons. The act was designed to accomplish this purpose in two ways: (1) by the direct operation of its post-accident requirements and (2) by the indirect psychological effect of inducing owners and operators of motor vehicles to purchase automobile liability insurance to …


Technical Report Writing, Civilian Personnel Division, Office Of The Chief Of Engineers, Department Of The Army, Robert Bolin , Depositor Jan 1955

Technical Report Writing, Civilian Personnel Division, Office Of The Chief Of Engineers, Department Of The Army, Robert Bolin , Depositor

United States Army Corps of Engineers, Omaha District

This is a brief manual intended primarily to instruct junior engineering personnel working on civil works for the Corps of Engineers in the proper procedures for preparing reports. Some of the contents were papers delivered at a conference on the use of English in Corps of Engineers reports.

The manual is complicated by the Corps of Engineer’s roles as a military organization and as an organization managing civil public works projects and public facilities and by the special problem of having to answer inquiries of members of Congress.

Shortly before this guide was issued, the Engineer School had issued a …


Emily Dickinson's Approach To Poetry, Donald E. Thackrey Oct 1954

Emily Dickinson's Approach To Poetry, Donald E. Thackrey

University Studies (University of Nebraska) (1888–1984)

One of the most fascinating aspects of any poet is his conception of his art. Many poets have written extensively on the theory of art around which they orient their poetry. Others have clearly revealed their theories by writing criticism of other authors. Emily Dickinson, however, left no critical essays, no elucidation of her artistic principles. It is quite probable, indeed, that she did not consciously concern herself to any extent with poetic theory. She may have written, and written in her unique way, through an instinctive need which would admit of no plodding deliberation or stylistic experimentation. Still, such …


The Social And Political Conflict In Prussia 1858-1864, Eugene N. Anderson Aug 1954

The Social And Political Conflict In Prussia 1858-1864, Eugene N. Anderson

University Studies (University of Nebraska) (1888–1984)

T HE present study developed out of a desire to understand the character of liberalism and conservatism in Prussia on the eve of German unification. Who were the liberals? Who were the Conservatives? What were their ideals and how did they conduct themselves in public? How powerful was each group in the state? In conflict throughout the Nineteenth Century, the opponents reached the peak of their antagonism in the years between 1858 and 1866, the the years of the New Era, the constitutional conflict, and the first two wars of German unification. Fundamental social, economic, and political ideals were at …

Individualized Treatment Of Criminal Offenders, Allan J. Garfinkle, Charles H. Beatty Jan 1954

Individualized Treatment Of Criminal Offenders, Allan J. Garfinkle, Charles H. Beatty

Nebraska Law Review

For many years the nation's criminologists and penologists have denounced the present system of treatment of criminal offenders as unrealistic and unproductive of desirable results. Dissatisfied with legislative tinkering at the peripheries of the problem, they have called for a sweeping re-examination of the basic procedures which appear untenable in the light of modern psychological knowledge.

In prior times the prime motive of society in its treatment of criminals was retribution; today it is still present, although in much reduced form. Deterrence from criminal acts and isolation of dangerous persons are present goals of criminal justice. Primarily, however, the aim …
