Congressional Consideration Of The Metric System, 1951-1961, Meredith Lynn Kasten

Student Scholarship

The question of whether the United States should adopt the metric system involves a complex evaluation of economic benefits, industrial resistance, and global compatibility. In the early 1960s, legislative efforts in Congress focused on initiating a formal study to determine the feasibility of such a transition. Proponents of the metric system, particularly in the aerospace and pharmaceutical industries, argue that the current dual system of measurement leads to significant inefficiencies. Research indicates that 94 percent of technical personnel in the aerospace field favor the change to eliminate time-consuming conversions and reduce the risk of calculation errors. Companies like Eli Lilly …

The Lobbying Activities Of The National Education Association, 1959-1961, Jo Ann Dillinger

Student Scholarship

This paper examines the lobbying activities of the National Education Association (NEA) between 1959 and 1961, focusing on the organization's efforts to influence federal legislation regarding public schools. The NEA operates through a structured approach led by an active minority that coordinates research and federal relations divisions to shape policy and disseminate propaganda.

Important Developments In The Grand Jury System In Virginia During The Seventeenth And Eighteenth Centuries, Melvin Dean Snead Jan 1962

Important Developments In The Grand Jury System In Virginia During The Seventeenth And Eighteenth Centuries, Melvin Dean Snead

Master's Theses

By March of 1658 tho grand jury system in Virginia was found to be sadly lacking. It had scarcely lasted ten years. Probably the reason for this failure was that the county justices failed to carry out the details of establishing grand juries. Because or Virginia's rural setting, this system would surely have been a worthwhile one. It seems to be quite evident that here we had a powerful instrument for aiding in criminal detection, and at the same time an instrument for protecting the innocent. However, it was not used to its best advantage and as a result it …
