All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023

The marshal was an officer of the federal court, and as such he served warrants, obtained witnesses, helped select jurors, conducted executions upon order of the court, collected the census, served as warden of the territorial penitentiary, and in addition. performed many minute and tedious duties.

While the first United States marshal in Utah was Mormon, all others were non-Mormon and most were recruited from outside the territory. In general, they were capable …

The Response Of The United States To Fascism In Latin America 1933-1943, Robert C. Rasmussen

All Graduate Theses, Dissertations, and Other Capstone Projects

The conflict between the totalitarian forces of fascism and the democracies was not confined to just the battlefields of Western Europe or the beaches of the South Pacific. Between 1933 and 1943 the forces of these two conflicting ideologies were engaged in a struggle to win the confidence of the people of Latin America. The suc­cess that the United States ultimately had in winning the trust and support of the Latin America nations bolstered the morale of America while at the same time denying the Nazis an important strategic and propaganda triumph.

In this study the activities of the Nazis …

The Virginia Resolutions Of 1798 : A Study Of The Contemporary Debate, Alice J. Retzer

Honors Theses

The Virginia Resolutions of 1798 have been praised as a defense of the basic freedoms of person, speech, and press and equally denounced as an early precedent for the principles of states rights, nullification and interposition. Involved in the crisis which arose over the Alien and Sedition Laws were such outstanding Virginians and national figures as Thomas Jefferson, James Madison, John Taylor, William Branch Giles, John Marshall, Patrick Henry, and Henry Lee. Without major emphasis upon the contributions or activities of these statesmen or the historical implications of the Resolutions, the purpose of this paper is to examine the contemporary …

George Romney In 1968, From Front-Runner To Drop-Out, An Analysis Of Cause, Richard M. Eyre

Theses and Dissertations

The meteoric political decline of George Romney is unparalleled in political history and in the history of presidential campaigning. In the space of one year, the man evolved from the overwhelming presidential favorite of Republicans, Democrats, and Independents alike to a presidential drop out, criticized severely and even mocked by press and public alike.

There are many opinions as to why this phenomenon occurred. The press has opinions, the public has opinions, and the people closest to George Romney have opinions.

A step by step analysis of Romney's campaign casts light on these opinions and completely discredits some while validating …

Procedural Due Process In Administrative Law: Some Thoughts From The French Experience, Richard L. Herrmann

University of Michigan Journal of Law Reform

As administrative law has grown so have the suggestions for change and reform. During the last thirty years a recurrent proposal has been that Congress create a federal administrative court. The first such bill was introduced in 1933 by Senator George Norris. In the same year the American Bar Association also championed the creation of such a court. Bills advocating an administrative court were again introduced in the Seventy-Fourth, Seventy-Fifth, and Seventy-Sixth Congress. The most recent proposal came in 1949. None were ever passed.

All Graduate Theses, Dissertations, and Other Capstone Projects

At 9:30 P.M. on May 30, 1961, most United States citizens were enjoying the closing hours of a Memorial Day holiday. About this same time in the Dominican Republic an event was taking shape which was to alter greatly the lives of the people of that island nation. Rafael L. Trujillo, the dictator of the Dominican Republic, was riding with his chauffeur, Captain Socorro de la Cruz, along the highway from Santo Domingo to where the dictator's mistress waited in San Cristobal. Seemingly out of nowhere, a 1958 Chevrolet pulled alongside the limousine, its four occupants brandishing an assortment of …
