Hitler And Keitel: An Investigation Of The Influence Of Party Ideology On The High Command Of The Armed Forces In Germany Between 1939 And 1945, Helmut J. Schmeller

Fort Hays Studies Series

The eventual struggle between these two Weltanschauungen, National Socialism, and Marxism, needed to be translated into reality. The Program of the National Socialist German Worker's Party proposed in Point 22 the creation of a People's Army. After 1941 he intensified his attempts to make the Wehrmacht the tool of National Socialist ideology. It is the purpose of this study to trace Hitler's evolving program of using the military to accomplish his political ends.

The History Of Cokeville, Wyoming, Errol Jack Lloyd

All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023

Cokeville, Wyoming, is situated at the confluence of the Bear River and Smiths Fork valleys in southwestern Wyoming. Settled in 1874, the Cokeville area has experienced much the same political, economic, and social developments typical of other small rural towns in the western United States; but it is unlike neighboring settlements in that it was not dominated by the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints during its early growth.

Depending upon an agricultural economic base, Cokeville has been the center of the Lincoln County sheep industry since the early 1900's. Mining has played a minor part in the economy, …

A History Of Westminster College Of Salt Lake City, Utah, 1875-1969, Lewis G. Webster

All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023

As the railroad and mining industries brought non-Mormon settlers into the territory of Utah, a conflict developed which led to the creation of a separate system of education by the Protestant newcomers. Their purposes were to provide a quality education for their own children free from Mormon influence and to convert children of Mormon families. The Presbyterian Church led in the creation of graded schools from elementary, through secondary, and culminating in the Sheldon Jackson College in Salt Lake City.

As public schools were established, the mission schools were closed, except for Wasatch Academy in Mt. Pleasant and Sheldon Jackson …

Richmond's Reaction To The Depression Of 1837, Barbara Cahoon

Honors Theses

Depressions affect people and institutions in a variety of ways, from leveling the wealth until a recovery is impossible to showing the weaknesses inherent in the system, thus enabling workable solutions to be a result. The economic emergency of 1837 was such a phenomenon. Much has been written about its effects on a national and state level, but localities have been slighted. All do not necessarily react the same, and consequently the aim of this paper is to show Richmond’s particular response to her poor market conditions, and the political developments of the havoc that occurred from 1837-1842.

Henry Parker's Doctrine Of The Consent Of The Governed /, Barbara Cahoon

Honors Theses

The role of Parliament in England's history has been one of interest to historians for centuries. The background and origin of a rule based on the people's consent has been attributed to many people in England's past. I hope to show that one of the first men who developed this theory of government which was later taken up by Locke and other philosophers was Henry Parker. The people choosing their types of government and laws was a new idea that few had voiced. Parker writing in the 1640's saw the tendency of government evolving to Parliamentary sovereignty, not monarchy.

Tobacco And Soil Relationships In Tidewater Virginia To 1670, Harold E. Conover

Honors Theses

The seventeenth century was the golden age of Virginia's Tidewater tobacco industry. The virgin soils had not yet been exploited by a careless agriculture. Before 1670, adventurous men had not planted west of the Fall Line, where superior tobacco land waited quietly. The shadow of chronic debt to his English factor had not yet fallen on the Virginia planter. Fortunes were still to be drawn from the rich earth; there was promise in the golden leaf for ambitious pioneers. The tobacco kingdom was young, and it was Spring in Tidewater.
