On a subject of deep concern to all americans and many people in all parts of the world. The war in vietnam. One of the reasons for the deep division about vietnam is that Many Americans have lost confidence in what their government has told them about our policy. The American People cannot and should not be asked to support a policy which involves the overall issues of war and peace unless they know the truth about that policy. Tonight, i would like to answer some of the questions that i know are on the minds of many of you listening to me. How and why did america get involved in vietnam in the first place . How has this administration changed the policy of the Previous Administration . What has really happened in the negotiations in paris and on the battlefront in vietnam . What choices do we have if we were to end the war . What are the prospects for peace . Let me begin by describing the situation i found when i was inaugurated on january 20th. The war had been going on for four ye
Markethybrid carnival. There were carnival rides and the like, but there were also people there selling objects. One of the objects was similar to this. I purchased it and i broke it. Again, it was not a philosophical thing, i just did not like the object. I do not remember the second object, or the third or the fourth. But i started collecting. And basically, have been collecting for several decades. I didnt start out with the anticipation of creating a museum. I was what most people would call an obsessive collector, and the idea of it becoming not just a collection as teaching tools, but actually a museum happened much later. So, not everybody where you grew up was collecting these items. Theres got to be more. What was it that made you keep doing it . David you know, i dont know. I have been thinking about that a lot. You know, my ancestors for four generations back, there are people from the bahamas, from trinidad, from spain, Indigenous People of this country. I guess what im say
Irish regiment. , a caricature of lincoln writing the emancipation proclamation, the lincoln family by Francis Bicknell carpenter, victor nehligs painting, an episode of war, and some prison art. Lets look at the relationship between war and art, harold. Does war stimulate arts in america, and did art change the romantic image of war . Harold i think both. Good evening. Thanks for having me back. I think the great emphasis of american painting to the civil war was probably landscape painting. Portrait caricatures took on a martial air with all the military heroes who were portrayed. But it sent many to the field, like the soldier artists. Artists like Winslow Homer went to the field to do sketches for the weekly newspapers and evolved into very successful artists. But in terms of what it did to landscaping, it totally revolutionized the romantic attitude artists had toward this socalled american eden, the pristine landscape of the americas. The landscape was ravaged by gunfire, and the
Mccalls through this charming photograph that we use in the story. Im pleased that you have taken this picture which was taken a year or two after i came back from school in england, and had come out in the traditional way in new york. Fashions seem so funny today with the high neck and the gold beads around my neck and above all the hair. I had hair below my waist, so it was hard to get it scrolled up on top of my head, but it makes you look quite different. All i can say about the fashions today is that at least weve progressed and are more comfortable. In the next picture with your father you seem to have a very nice relationship with him. He meant a great deal to you, didnt he . My father meant a tremendous amount. I adored him all the days of my childhood. Did for many years. Did he have a particular nickname he called you . Little male after the dickinson story, i always liked that. Im sitting on my fathers knee, very badly dressed little girl, right up to my mothers death so i h

Remember we said your body is like a city, a model city in which everything runs smoothly and will continue to do so as long as it is left undisturbed. Undisturbed by the invader, disease. You see the wall around this city has a gate through which supplies of Raw Materials must be taken. Suppose youre loading up a new stock of groceries, bred, butter, jam, ice cream and cake. This busy peaceful city never heard of the invader. But the enemy, a deadly disease germ, but there is only one, what harm can he do against the workers. Just watch him. Sund suddenly there are two, four, eight, and more to come. Now we understand why theyre so deadly. They have the power to transform themselves quickly. He doesnt look so ha
