Memo from Harry L. Black, Assistant Project Director, to Willard E. Schmidt, Chief of Police, re: disorders in Block #54, June 2, 1944
Discusses imprisonment in the stockade of 12 incarcerees and tension concerning the Japanese Language Schools and the schools in the camps, detailing what it terms "terrorist tactics" on the part of the Japanese Language School's proponents and concluding that the Project Director is justified in using the stockade for disciplinary purposes. The document also includes the directive, Administration of Japanese Language Schools at Tule Lake incarceration camp (March 30, 1944 by R. R. Best, Project Director), which outlines policy regarding the camp and Japanese Language Schools; a memo regarding this directive "prepared as a public announcement by Mr. Harkness, Superintendent of Schools... (May 18, 1944);" and a memo from Kenneth M. Harkness, Superintendent of Schools, to Harry L. Black, Chief, Community Management (May 21, 1944) concerning these memoranda. Also included is an envelope from the Federal Communications Commission to Willard E. Schmidt marked Personal and Confidential.The Willard Schmidt collection, documents some of the administrative duties of Willard Schmidt, the Chief of Internal Security for the War Relocation Authority and the Tule Lake incarceration/segregation camp. This collection contains administrative records and photos documenting the Tule Lake camp, the largest incarceration camp with a peak population of 18,789 and with the most turbulent history. In 1943, the camp was turned into a segregation center to house "disloyal" Japanese Americans relocated from other camps based on their answers to a confusing loyalty questionnaire. The camp endured martial law from November 1943- Jan 1944 after escalating protests and unrest. The hostile environment of the camp lead to many incarcerees renouncing their American citizenship upon the end of incarceration, a process which took 14 years to reverse if they did not wish to be deported to Japan

A Review by Kenneth Atkinson of Alexandria and Qumran: Back to the Beginning, by Kenneth Silver
Kenneth Silver (a.k.a. Kenneth A. K. Lönnqvist), is a historian and professional archaeologist, who has lived and worked for decades in the Near East. With extensive publications on Hellenistic and Roman archaeology, history, and numismatics, Silver is the director of a survey and mapping project in Northern Mesopotamia studying the border zone between the late Roman/ Byzantine Empires and Persia. Author of numerous publications on Qumran and related topics, Silver’s lengthy monograph proposes that the documents and type of library found at Qumran were based on models derived from Egypt. The main thesis of the volume is that Pythagorean philosophy is the core and basis for the beliefs reflected in the non-Biblical texts found at Qumran

This is a new record for the family and genus in Taiwan and is based on a single metamorphic larva from Dong-gang, SW Taiwan. It is tentatively identified as N. danae based on the position of the last vertical blood vessel (LVBV, or renal artery), at approximately myomere 65–71, which is within the range given for this species by Karmovskaya (1985). The comparable count in N. ingolfianus, the only other species in the genus, is 72–78.Published as part of Ho, Hsuan-Ching, Smith, David G., Mccosker, John E., Hibino, Yusuke, Loh, Kar-Hoe, Tighe, Kenneth A. & Shao, Kwang-Tsao, 2015, Annotated checklist of eels (orders Anguilliformes and Saccopharyngiformes) from Taiwan, pp. 140-189 in Zootaxa 4060 (1) on page 149, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.4060.1.16, http://zenodo.org/record/24365

The implications for ministry of the teachings of Kenneth Cracknell with special reference to former students
To be effective in ministry in the contemporary religious milieu, today's seminarians, tomorrow's church leaders, must receive more than a mere academic experience; they need practical experience as to how to function effectively within a socially diverse climate of faith. The author documents the long term impact of Kenneth Cracknell's attempts to nurture cross cultural understanding and cooperation within the seminary context. The intent of this exposition is to demonstrate that Kenneth Cracknell has purposefully created a tranformative environment using interfaith dialogue as an effective paradigm for informing today's diverse seminary population. To that end, opinions, reactions and musings of a dozen former students are documented and presented herein as models of appropriate conversation for interfaith dialogue
The Future of Collective Bargaining - The 28th Annual Kenneth M. Piper Lecture
The influence of organized labor in the American workplace continues to decline as the percent organized in the private sector has fallen from 36% in 1953 to less than 8% at the present time. Although a variety of demographic and economic factors have contributed to this decline, a combination of high organizing costs and high membership attrition due to work restructuring in the global economy of the information age has left organized labor in the tenuous position of having to spend an ever larger share of union dues on organizing, merely to slow the rate of decline in the percent organized. Professor Dau-Schmidt discusses these trends in light of recent developments in industries of traditional union strength such as automotive and steel, strategies in organizing, the legal environment and the recent departure of a number of unions from the AFL-CIO.
Allison Beck, Nicholas W. Clark, and Michael A. Rodriguez provide commentary on the lecture.
The annual Kenneth M. Piper Lecture is sponsored by Chicago-Kent College of Law\u27s Institute for Law and the Workplace. It is presented by the Kenneth M. Piper Endowment, which was established by a gift from Mrs. Kenneth M. Piper in memory of her husband. Mr. Piper was a distinguished executive with Motorola, Inc., and Bausch & Lomb, Inc., who made important contributions in human resources and labor relations for more than two decades.
