The Supreme Court

On Monday, March 12, Georgia's senior senator, Walter George, rose in the Senate to read a manifesto blasting the Supreme Court. The Manifesto condemned the “unwarranted decision” of the Court in Brown as a “clear abuse of judicial power” in which the Court “with no legal basis for such action, undertook to exercise their naked judicial power and substituted their personal political and social ideas for the established law of the land.” The signers pledged themselves “to use all lawful means to bring about a reversal of this decision which is contrary to the Constitution and to prevent the use of force in its implementation.” It was signed by nineteen of the twenty-two southern senators, by every member of the congressional delegations from Alabama, Arkansas, Louisiana, Mississippi, South Carolina, and Virginia, by all but one of the representatives from Florida, all but one from Tennessee, all but three from North Carolina, and half of the Texas delegation.

The Yankees spread across the South Carolina and North Carolina countryside like a plague of biblical proportions, according to one observer. They dug sweet potatoes out of farmers’ fields, broke into barns, and burrowed into haylofts. Their bodies were infested with millions of lice and they carried these vermin to every place they stopped for the night. Every day one of the pestilential Yankees accosted an unsuspecting white or black southerner going about his or her daily business. In Caldwell County, North Carolina, the Reverend Isaac Oxford discovered a Yankee napping under neath his fodder. The Federal awoke and attacked Oxford, who finally subdued the man after a brutal fistfight. Oxford later captured three others that he encountered while squirrel hunting. In the same county, near Lenoir, the wife of the local doctor used her watchdog to subdue a Yankee trying to slip past the fence on her property. Slaves who lived near the road between Columbia and Spartanburg in South Carolina awoke to find a Yankee who had entered their cabins looming over their beds. He wanted food and a guide....

Mode Of Occurrence

Parts of the State of North Carolina, with adjoining areas in South Carolina and Georgia, have long been known to mineralogists and geologists as among the most interesting of corundum localities; and the researches of the late Dr. Genth, Col. Joseph Willcox, Mr. J. Volney Lewis and many other authors have done much to make clear the mode of occurrence and associations of corundum in this area and in the great eorundiferous belt stretching along the line of the Appalachian crystalline area from Alabama in the south to Maine in the north.

South Atlantic Region

During the past two decades corn production has increased in the South Atlantic region defined as Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina, and Georgia but not as rapidly as total U. S. production. The region accounted for 6.7 percent of the U. S. corn production in 1950 compared with 3.7 percent in 1970. During the same period soybean production has increased in the South Atlantic relative to other areas, accounting for 5.3 percent of U. S. production in 1970, up from 2.9 percent in 1950.The major consumer of both corn and soybeans is the livestock industry. During the past twenty years this industry has expanded in the South Atlantic. In terms of grain consuming animal units (GCAU), the region accounted for 7.4 percent of U. S. production in 1953 compared with 9.1 percent in 1970. As a result the area is a deficit producer of both corn and soybeans, although with the relative increase of soybean production, the soybean deficit is expected to decrease.

This chapter discusses Anna Botsford and John Henry Comstock's journey to the South. First stopping in Richmond, Virginia, they traveled to Raleigh, North Carolina; Charleston, South Carolina; and Savannah, Georgia. In the middle of January of 1919, the Comstocks found themselves settled at St. George Hotel in St. Augustine, Florida, to spend the winter there. The chapter also looks at the semi-centennial celebration of Cornell University in June of 1919. Anna continued teaching at the College of Agriculture and on July 31, she was made a full professor. She regarded it as a tribute to her long service, but it was also a tribute to the Department of Nature Study which she had built up. On April 17, 1920, the first part of Henry's Introduction to Entomology was published. Dealing with the structure and metamorphosis of insects, it was used in the Cornell laboratory. The chapter then considers Anna's retirement. On January 27, 1921, she gave her last lecture before the class of regular students of Cornell.
