Letter from Caleb Foote to A. J. Muste, April 1, 1942
Letter to A. J. Muste, likely from Caleb Foote, regarding the possibility of Japanese American families resettle in the Midwestern states. Author describes a recent meeting between Joseph R. Goodman, himself, and Milton Stover Eisenhower, Director of the War Relocation Authority, and correspondence with the president of Antioch College. Author writes "I think the three main question the government will ask in any such plan are 1) are defense industries nearby? 2) what will public reaction be? 3) what are the employment opportunities for the Japanese?" Author also describes situation with curfew in San Francisco: "Typical of what is happening: the other night a Japanese doctor came to the YMCA secretary in San Francisco about 7 o'clock. He had a patient that he need to operate on immediately, but a) he couldn't get a hospital in the city to take the patient, and b) in an hour he had to be back in his house til 6 AM because of the curfew, not matter what happened to the patient during thPersonal correspondence, organizational records, government documents, publications, and other papers created or collected by Joseph R.

Letter from Caleb Foote to Cecilia Shepperd, National Training School, March 23, 1942
Letter from Caleb Foote to Cecilia Shepperd: "Thank you for your letter with its suggestion for taking three Japanese young people in the National Training School. Since A. J. Muste sent out his request, the government has forbid any voluntary evacuation for any Japanese people, so the plan at the moment is in abeyance. Although we are pretty gloomy as to the prospects for any immediate resettlement, we will let you know as soon as anything develops. Thank you for your interest."Personal correspondence, organizational records, government documents, publications, and other papers created or collected by Joseph R.

Honour and recognition in the German novel of banditry ca 1800
This article performs a reading informed by Honneth’s theory of recognition of the two best-known German novels of banditry of the 1790s, Johann Heinrich Zschokke’s Abaellino der große Bandit (1794) and Christian August Vulpius’ Rinaldo Rinaldini (1799) in an effort to understand how popular literature participates in and reflects upon the discourse on honour and recognition around 1800. Its status as popular genre makes the novel of banditry (Räuberroman) a potentially interesting source on shifts in the theory and practice of honour as experienced by ordinary Europeans at the turn of the 19th century. The genre was found to relate to the honour discourse not directly, but in the manner of a heterotopia, simultaneously located outside that discourse and referentially connected to it. Taken in isolation, the novel of banditry is not an informative source on the changing role of honour and new patterns of intersubjective recognition in late 18th century Europe. Seen as part of a particular constellation of textual production and reception, however, the genre sheds light on the aporias of honour experienced by those socially marginal ‘new readers’ intent on exploiting literature in the struggle for enhanced social recognition.Peer reviewe

Experimental evidence of anesthesia-induced neurotoxicity has caused serious concern about the long-term effect of commonly used volatile anesthetic agents on young children. Several observational studies based on existing data have been conducted to address this concern with inconsistent results. We conducted a meta-analysis to synthesize the epidemiologic evidence on the association of anesthesia/surgery with neurodevelopmental outcomes in children. Using Bayesian meta-analytic approaches, we estimated the synthesized odds ratios (OR) and 95% credible interval (CrI) as well as the predictive distribution of a future study given the synthesized evidence. Data on 7 unadjusted and 6 adjusted measures of association were abstracted from 7 studies. The synthesized OR based on the 7 unadjusted measures for the association of anesthesia/surgery with an adverse behavioral or developmental outcome was 1.9 (95% CrI, 1.2-3.0). The most likely unadjusted OR from a future study was estimated to be 2.2 (95% CrI, 0.6-6.1). The synthesized OR based on the 6 adjusted measures for the association of anesthesia/surgery with an adverse behavioral or developmental outcome was 1.4 (95% CrI, 0.9-2.2). The most likely adjusted OR from a future study was estimated to be 1.5 (95% CrI, 0.5-4.0). We conclude that existent epidemiologic evidence suggests a modestly elevated risk of adverse behavioral or developmental outcomes in children who were exposed to anesthesia/surgery during early childhood. The evidence, however, is considerably uncertain.R03 DA023431/DA/NIDA NIH HHSUnited States/R21 CE001816/CE/NCIPC CDC HHSUnited States/1R21CE001816-01/CE/NCIPC CDC HHSUnited States

The life and works of James Miller, 1704-1744, with particular reference to the satiric content of his poetry and plays.
PhDJames Miller was born the son of a Dorset rector in 1704. He
was himself ordained, but acquired no benefice until just before his
early death, probably because of a scathing portrayal of the Bishop
of London in one of his verse satires. At Oxford he wrote a vivacious
comedy of humours, set in the University. Its production in 1730
began his dramatic career, at a time when the number of London
theatres had just doubled, and new dramatic forms were being invented.
In 1731 his poem Harlequin-Horace, a witty inversion of
the Ars Poetica, attacked pantomime and opera, but also painted a
lively portrait of the entire theatrical world, in the tradition of
the Dunciad.
After collaborating in a translation of Moliere's works Miller
wrote two plays based on this author. Of all his dramatic works
these were the most successful with his contemporaries, and were
followed by a modernisation of Much Ado, and a ballad-opera adapted
from an afterpiece by Jean-Baptiste Rousseau, and rendered highly
topical. Miller made similar use of a recent French comedy showing
a Red Indian's reactions to civilisation, a satiric "fable" by Walsh
and Voltaire's Mahomet. A large quantity of original material was
incorporated into most of these, and this is generally satirical in
nature. The Indian is made to voice almost egalitarian sentiments.
An afterpiece, "The Camp Visitants", satirised military inaction
in the war, and was apparently banned. The manuscripts of the six
plays produced after the Licensing Act bear the examiner's deletions,
and illustrate the nature of the censorship at this time.
Miller's greatest strength is probably his flexible, vigorously
colloquial dialogue. His political satire is mostly contained in
the poetry, which attacks Walpole's administration with increasing
vehemence through the seventeen-thirties, until its fall. In 1740
two poems that used Pope in symbolic contrast to Walpole caused a
sensation. In both poetry and plays Miller is also a social satirist,
who lays unusually strong emphasis on false taste and the deterioration
of culture
