    The campaign for democratic socialism 1960-1964.

    PhDIn early 1960 it seemed likely that the official Labour Party defence policy would be defeated by a unilateralist resolution at the Scarborough Conference. In response to this possibility the Campaign for Democratic Socialism, or CDS, was established. The CDS projected the image of a grass-roots movement inspired by Gaitskell's "fight and fight again" speech. But it was run by a Campaign Committee which included leading members of the Party like Tony Crosland, Roy Jenkins and Patrick Gordon Walker, as well as less well known members like Bill Rodgers, Dick Taverne, Philip Williams, Brian Walden, Denis Howell and David Marquand. This highly talented group launched an elaborate and successful lobbying, publicity and briefing operation which was influential in overturning the unilateralist vote at the Blackpool Conference of 1961. After Blackpool the Campaign helped many of its leading members find seats in the House of Commons while continuing to put the "revisionist" case through its newspaper Campaign. The importance of the CDS in the history of the Labour Party is, primarily, as the first internal pressure group organised by the right of the Party. It was also the first internal Party group to use such sophisticated lobbying techniques. Moreover, the subsequent careers of the leading members of the Campaign influenced the development of the Labour Party. The CDS was an important formative political action for many of them. Finally many of the CDS supporters set-up or joined the SDP when it was launched

    ''This portrait of convicted murderer Robert Rodgers was taken in his Fort Brown prison cell shortly before his execution by hanging on June 11, 1866. Carte de visite attributed to Louis de Planque or R. H. Wallis.'' [Jerry Thompson and Lawrence T. Jones III, Civil War and Revolution on the Rio Grande Frontier: A Narrative and Photographic History (Austin: Texas State Historical Association, 2004), 112.] Rodgers, a private in the Seventy-seventh Ohio Infantry Regiment, was part of the Federal occupation forces stationed in Texas after the Civil War. Rodgers was serving at Fort Brown, Texas, when he was condemned for the brutal murder of William Gardiner, army veteran and sutler. The same gallows would be used eleven days later to hang three Mexican men, Vicente Garcia, Florencio Garza, and Juan Vela, who were also condemned for murder.Attributed to: de Planque, Louis (Carl Louis), 1837-1898.

    [Letter from T. N. Carswell to A. M. Rodgers - October 7, 1942]

    No full text
    A letter written to Rev. A. M. Rodgers, Moderator, Dallas Baptist Association, from T. N. Carswell, Chairman United Texas Drys, dated October 7, 1942. Carswell expresses his amazement at the lack of interest of many Christians and the opposition of some non-Christians in the liquor traffic. He advises of having written 26 church schools in Texas requesting information regarding the curriculum each school offers on the effects of beverage alcohol. He suggests that Baptist schools should include a required course of study on the effects of beverage alcohol. A handwritten note at the bottom of the page reads "Arrived too late - Good suggestions. A. M. Rodgers"

    Derivatives of spin dynamics simulations

    No full text
    We report analytical equations for the derivatives of spin dynamics simulations with respect to pulse sequence and spin system parameters. The methods described are significantly faster, more accurate, and more reliable than the finite difference approximations typically employed. The resulting derivatives may be used in fitting, optimization, performance evaluation, and stability analysis of spin dynamics simulations and experiments.<br/
