With Falls City, in Polk County, Oregon lying dead center along the line of the line of east-west traverse of the moon's shadow from the coming August 21 eclipse, we thought it appropriate to commemorate this historic event with the publication (by uploading) of this LOST issues of the PYM PUZZLER -- MISSING PERSONS ! Falls City (Oregon) is one of Oregon’s gemstones-of a–town, which – about a century ago, was about the burgeoningist logging and lumber-milling towns on the Little Luckiamute River, in the foothills of the Coast Range, in western Polk County. TAKE NOTE: the City took its name from a particularly powerful waterfall on that same Little Luckimaute river, west and upriver a spot, from the heart of where the town was built: for it is there that the Little Luckiamute not only “falls” but – in its natural state – is largely propelled where it is funneled through a congestion of rocks on the banks at the brink of the falls – creating an especially spumey cataract of some 40-50 feet. HOWEVER, at the time of the events in question in This Week’s Puzzler, the Little Luckiamute was dammed – a development enplaced during the late 1800’s – as pictured above. Water in the reservoir behind the dam, was diverted via an aquaduct of tongue-and-groove fir boards, to power the sawmill on the south bank of the Luckiamute … BUT THERE'S SOMETHING MYSTERIOUS GOING ON HERE ...

H.M.S. Racoon, Capt. Black, enters the mouth of teh Columbia River Nov. 30, 1913 to take possession of Astoria, during the War of 1812 !!. I transcribed this extraordinary document a decade or so ago, from a photostatic copy held in the collection of the Oregon Historical Society. Apparently there are gaps in the text, or in the imagery of the text, or perhaps I just need to get back in and finish the job??? This is my complete effort at the time, and includes Capt. Black's description of critical repairs to teh Raccoon at at Angel Island, as well as of Mission San Francisco in early 1814, Monterey etc., and rather extensive material on Black's relationship with the Mexican government at the time... A HUGE DOCUMENT, totally underexposed...

I suggest here, that the Commerce Departmentshould be restored as an engine of productivity, modelled after Herbert Hoover’s Commerce re-organization, and featuring a restored Bureau of Mines understood as the very threshold of any real recovery of the U.S. industrial capacity, and directed at relieving the bottleneck at the very front of the cycle of production: that is, by actively promoting mineral exploration with an objective of actively advancing mining. The Bureau of Mines should be resuscitated and restored to a central position in Commerce, as stated. Under Hoover, an Englishman seeking to market English industrial output in the U.S. once said, “Our competitor is not so much American industry as it is the United Stated Department of Commerce.” But a century of progressive distortion to the very concept of Commerce, has now limited the meaning of the word, to simple trade or movement of goods generally imported, without any relationship to their native origin, or the level of science applied in finishing them for market. Recreating the BoM within Commerce may help to straighten out this badly skewed understanding, as well as recreating the sense of National mission-orientation which should cloak highly productive activity like mining

AS EARLLY AS THE 1920'S there were widespread complaints in the construction industry, about inconsistency in the way building codes were being implemented. In 1920 the Senate Select Committee on Reconstruction and Production concluded: "The building codes of the country have not been developed upon scientific data, but rather on compromises; they are not uniform in principle and in many instances involve an additional cost of construction without assuring most useful or more durable buildings. TWO YEARS LATER, new Secretary of Commerce Herbert Hoover reported to Congress that conflicting building codes were increasing construction costs by 10 to 20 percent. Hoover appointed a Building Code Committee to draft recommendations that could be used by local governments in preparing codes. The committee worked with the National Bureau of Standards until 1933, when funding was curtailed. HERE., BY WAY OF ILLUSTRATION IS A REPORT ISSUED BY HOOVER'S BUILDING CODE COMMITTEE IN 1925 ....

BREAKING RESEARCH FROM TONY CHAITKIN on the Dulles, Lemnitzer mole-network w/in the FDR Admin, and wholly dedicated to betrayal of the American V-E success, and FDR's legacy and plans -- as announced at Yalta -- for breaking up the British colonial system and ending colonialism for good. FDR's death, supposed an assassination by some leading U.S. historians, but not so referenced here -- shut-down implementation of this 4-term President's plans for securing the peace along those lines. "Those FDR had called the “Tories” rushed in to assert control over U.S. strategy' the result, inter alia, being NATO... THIS IS THE STORY OF THAT SAME NETWORK behind the Kennedy assassination, maintaining maximum control over the U.S. Presidency during the Cold War, and which is still active -- and now largely exposed -- in the ongoing attacks on President Trump. Here,Chaitkin also discusses the work of Kennedy Administration in the production of two Hollywood films, the "Manchurian Candidate", and "Seven Days in May" -- the first released during the Cuban missile crisis, and the latter forecasting some details of a coup anticipated against a FUTURE president: DONALD TRUMP is now in their crosshairs. FROM CHAITKIN'S INTRO: "The Anglo-American oligarchy began a coup against President Donald Trump after his surprise 2016 election. They were in a panic to block his announced aims of partnership with Russia, the end of permanent war, the overturn of preda-tory Free Trade, and the return of Glass Steagall to break Wall Street’s power. The panic turned into a frenzy on the Russian angle, as it emerged that Trump had been working with strategic advisors who were prepared to return the United States to its traditional support for national sovereignty, and drop the regime-change insanity pursued by Presidents Bush and Obama. "We have seen this kind of coup d’etat before, against the outstanding na-tionalist U.S. President of the second half of the 20th century, John F. Kennedy.We have lived in the shadow of that coup ever since. Perhaps throwing some new light on those events and, most importantly, what Kennedy himself understood about them, can help us see our way now to sanity and survival." DOCUMENT PRESENTED HERE INCLUDES MAJOR ORIGINAL RESEARCH on Kennedy as a post-war correspondent for the Heart newspapers, covering the conference at Potsdam as a reporter, and the synchronization of efforts to initiate the Cold War; the rise of NATO, and JFK's own tour of Asia in 1951...

THIS IS THE SAME GRIPPING TALE told with CONTEMPORARY MAPS of the Mouth of the Columbia River !! A tale of the dangers of Pacific coast travel in the 1850's, before e there was any COAST GUARD PRESENCE on the river. The tale of the WRECK & PERIL of the GENERAL WARREN was a needless disaster occasioned by pride & foolhardiness; and triggered a daring sea-rescue gone wrong on the bar, at the mouth of the Columbia River, January, 1852. THE SHIPWRECK WAS the virtually inevitable outcome of an unregulated shipping industry exploited by Pacific coast capitalists working the "coasting trade" between the newly recognized Oregon Territory and the equally untested State of California. The vessel that went down -- the General Warren -- was an 1844 screw steamer that left service in New York in 1850, and arrived in San Francisco on July 20, 1851: she was just one of a number of old tubs that were sailed around the Cape during the gold excitement in California. The disaster was entirely preventable -- and in fact was foreseen by a machinist who declined to accept work on the voyage outbound from Astoria: the voyage that wrecked the "General Warren". The story here is approximately as told in the papers of Oregon historian Fred Lockley.

WAS BILLY BUDD AN ALBATROSS? Billy Bud, an Albatross? Melville had described Billy’s hanging in chapter 26 this way: “In the pinioned figure arrived at the yard-end, to the wonder of all no motion was apparent, none save that created by the ships’s motion, in moderate weather so majestic in a great ship ponderously cannoned.” The H.M.S. Dromedary mounted 44 guns, which might qualify the Dromedary as “ponderously cannoned” -- but, of course, so might any of scores of other British vessels of the age. At any rate, it is the ship’s MOTION, not her identity that is the focus of this line from Billy Budd. The ship’s ocean-going motions – yaw, roll, and pitch -- were the motions of all on board, who compensated instinctively, via a certain attunement of the inner-ear, or the acquisition of their “sea-legs,” to highly complex motions that could only have been interpreted, on land, as instability. Cf. “Sway”, “surge’ and “heave”. But these same motions were more “ponderously” imparted to the suspended bodies of the three mutineers, whose pendulous weight[s], elevated, and extended at the end of the yard-arm, would undergo corresponding acceleration of their movement, and amplification of inertial forces .. and more swinging.

In the last “Christmas in Richmond” issue of YANKEE SCOUT, our heroes George, the Fugitive Slave and Pvt. Calif Newton Drew, sub. nom “Sam” the slave, after a late night playing a Christmas Eve coloreds-only ball, in some large but unidentified warehouse down on the Richmond waterfront, had just pushed off from somewhere along the Richmond docks, quiet on this Christmas morning, out onto the frigid waters of the James River, as they make their desperate clandestine getaway from … RICHMOND, SEAT of the CONFEDERACY !!As part of the escape plan, Pvt. Drew is now thoroughly disguised in black-face makeup that was expertly applied by none other than George the slave himself, who, as an African-American, has an expert’s insight into this sort of thing, and who – being a barber – also cut Pvt. Drew’s hair “so short you could hardly see it.” [See last issue ! – Ed.] Now, with this baffling role-reversal, Pvt. Drew looks the spittin’ image of a strong young Ni….Ne….ne… ni … n-n African-American man, and is a suitable street-companion for George. Thus united in intent, and now largely in appearance, the two fugitives are stuck together like brothers, and ready to execute their common plan !!! WILL THEY ESCAPE THE TENTACLES OF THE SLAVE STATE?

Following the stalemate called the MINE RUN CAMPAIGN of late November, 1863, the warring armies of the Confederacy and the United States have encamped for the Winter in Culpeper and Orange counties, Va., respectively, and Pvts Drew and Denbo been assigned to roving duty. Drew wrote: “[ Pvt. Henry C.] Denbow [ a Pleasant Point Passamoquody Indian ] and Drew were on detail for extry duty and was on the move around the enemies camps and army most-all the time. “We were given the Spencer seven-shots carbine it was the first gun using the metallic cartridge I had ever seen, we tried them out – a .50 calibre, lever-action it would do in close quarters – not to be depended on over 150 yards the powder charge could not be increased. We preferred the old Springfield for all purposes. THEN I WAS CAPTURED: “I think it was on the 18th of Dec. while on a reconnoriter [sic] with Comp’s. C. and K. down toards the Alexander and Richmond RR. I was captured by a band of Johnny’s holding a observation post into which I ran during a thick snow squall. “They had [seen] our forces, and counted it two large for them to attack – and was on the move to avoid us in the squall when we meet. When they saw the red and green cross on my cap they shure did treat me fine- gave me a horse to ride, four of them guarded – two of them went to Richmond with me on a flat-car where we arrived in good shape ….” FIND OUT WHAT HAPPENS NEXT, when Pvt. Drew is declared a PRISONER OF WAR in Richmond !!

THE U.S. ECONOMY NEEDS, IN PART, a Commerce Department re-organized along the lines of the one created by Herbert Hoover, during his service as Commerce Secretary. This Cabinet office became the engine to America's "Arsenal of Democracy" on the outbreak of WWII, What Roosevelt appreciated in Hoover's Commerce Dept., was , however, was the extraordinary development and increase of influence that had accrued to Commerce, once it was helmed by a serious, hard-boiled U.S. mining engineer, responsible for successfully and profitably extracting mineral ores from the “bosom of the earth” using the most ingenious, leading-edge but reliable subterranean excavation, construction, mineral extraction technologies – and hard labor: Hoover himself had gotten his start working in the mines near Nevada City, California where he pushed mine-cars bodily, or manually, for a living. He also had to track the latest chemical-assaying techniques, work out cost-benefit projections for the latest milling machinery, guarantee the maintenance and upkeep of equipment, safety of existing shafts, and the digging of new ones, and personally create the “interfacing” of often–inaccessible mine-owners digs, by seeing to the construction of stub lines to the nearest rail-connections, in order to ensure transfer of ores to milling and processing plants sometimes scores or hundreds of miles away; and bring it all to work employing sometimes strife-ridden labor: all to start and then maintain productivity, not merely as against a fluctuating market demand, but sometimes also against all the physical, geological and material resistance that Mother Nature could compile to thwart him. The role of the mining engineer, in interfacing between hard, natural & physical contingencies and the masses of economic mankind, in order to render the former economically fruitful to the latter, is little appreciated today, when business often is reduced to playing by or adjusting man-made rules … creating new manners of valueless fictional papers is seen as showing business acumen.

HERE IT IS -- PERHAPS THE APEX of internet-based online historical puzzling, the classic CAUGHT ON TYPE !! issue of the PYM PUZZLER, edited by A.P. Dromgoole. This timeless issue craftily discloses, almost for the first time, the true but hidden history of the California Gold Rush, which opened not in 1849 with an exodus of New Englanders from the EAST Coast, but INSTEAD in August, 18848, with an exodus of OREGONIANS from the PACIFIC coast, -- from the Willamette Valley, in particular, heading south to California. The story begins when a strange single-masted vessel moors along the waterfront in Oregon City, just below the Falls, and begins buying up all the supplies in town !!! Why? SOON ENOUGH word leaks out of the gold strikes in the Sacramento valley, and before long wagon-trains are forming up locally, and men are leaving behind their well-tended fields and crops,their homesteads, and even their wives and children, for a long-shot chance to STRIKE IT RICH !! Amongst these men are some significant figures, who will soon make their mark on California history -- most notably the Honorable "P.' who makes a point of soliciting into his company, one young man, Charlie Putnam: the unknown, nondescript typesetter for the only newspaper being published on the Tualatin Plains in 1848 !! But just who was "The Honorable P" and why did he want to bring Charley along, of all people in the valley? Luckily some of their conversation was CAUGHT ON TYPE !! So perhaps you can find out, in why .... Only in PM PUZZLER -- CAUGHT ON TYPE !!

THIRD PART OF THE TRILOGY famously begun in SYM-ZONIA -- WATERSHED MOMENT !!, in this issue Michael C. Goldengate returns with further details on the mysterious survey plats of DOUGLAS COUNTY, Oregon, and the Umpqua River basin, wherein are uniquely found the works of a figure known to posterity only as the B.O.U.B. And, in particular, Goldengate probes into what may be tender areas in the personal history of the B.O.U.B., when his survey work shows a departure from a generally happy-go-lucky disposition, and takes a turn towards the darker side of life, as seen in his "Brooding Burnt Umber" period. What happened to the B.O.U..B.to cause him to create such gloomy, despairing survey plats???

Following the decisive Battle of Rappahannock Station on the Rappahannock River, on November 7, 1863, General Lee and the Army of Northern Virginia, DEFEATED, have now RETREATED further into Virginia, abandoning their Winter Quarters in Culpeper County, and continuing on south into Orange County, taking up new positions, and establishing his camp south of the Rapidan River in Orange County, near an overflown creek, known as Mine Run. Union Gen Meade gives Gen. John Sedgwick one last campaign assignment. The Mine Run Campaign, so-called, was the General Meade's last-ditch effort to engage Lee's Army before the full onset of the Winter of ‘63-64. But Lee's new Winter Quarters south of Mine Run were so formidably defended -- by swamplands to the northwest, mingling with the overflown ice-cold waters of Mine Run itself, and a dozen other small creeks and sloughs; and furthermore blocked with thickets of slash and timber – “abattis” -- that the Army of Northern Virginia was completely impregnable to standard attack here!! The landscape was incomprehensible to military tactics, and thus thwarted every strategy: therefore, skirmishes dominated the "campaign" and isolated limited engagements marked the end of the 1863 fighting season, with Meade throwing in the towel. Such indeterminacy does not make for STANDARD military literature -- but Pvt. Drew's narrative of scouting MINE RUN, and other relevant action, can be counter-pointed with other accounts to realize a vivid vision of the wintertime action !!

THIS 1927 PAMPHLET IS INSTRUCTIVE on at least two counts, FIRST, in that it details the finer points of public debate concerning the possible advantages and potential disadvantages of the passage of the McNary-Haugen farm surplus bill, vintage 1927, for the establishment of a National Ag Bank, and in doing so -- that is because of the extraordinary level of mastery of public policy issues represented by the prompts in this text -- it also makes for an embarrassing reminder of the catastrophic falloff in the calibre of American public education over the ensuing 90 years, and also in American public political debate in general. Certainly it also illustrates something all of Washington has forgotten, that the U.S. economy has a historical & widespread cultural foundation in serious scientific agriculture and in the pursuit of improvements both in cultivation techniques and in policies that benefited the FARMER. IT JUST SO HAPPENS that Mr. Schmidt's Google "Search" engine, has buried most such texts in which the merits of McNary-Haugen are treated: even Congressional Record Reports and hearings are unavailable. There are some texts available for access at the Hathitrust, but these require a subscription to get access. This particular unusual text I obtained myself, and scanned in a digital scanner some time ago, as appears from the irregularity of the page positioning. It should be a good text to begin considering whether an updated McNary-Haugen type of Ag Bank might still be of use to American farmers in his quest for price parity.

YES -- FANS, this is the story that started it all !! IT'S A DESPARATE tale of Civil War deprivations and FORAGING by the half-starved men of the 6th Maine Infantry, one of the regiments in Brig-Gen's Winfield Scott Hancock's historic First Brigade that saw good service at Williamsburg and White Oak Swamp earlier in the advance of Gen. McClellan's 1862 Peninsular Campaign, and only more recently skirmished with Rebs at Second Battle of Bull Run !! THE BATTLE-SCARRED men now make their way through a war-ravaged District of Columbia on their way to a certain rendezvous with the Army of Northern Virginia under command of Gen. Robert E Lee -- first at the battle of South Mountain, and shortly thereafter at ANTIETAM. But meanwhile, the men of the U.S. Army must EAT and as they enter Southern-sympathetic MARYLAND the citizens HOLDOUT on them, and official provisions are scarce, and what there is, is limited to Lincoln' s HARD-TACK and SALT PORK -- and if they want to sink their teeth into any fresh meat, the men are obliged to take DESPARATE MEASURES !! And then, they see the answer: Now ... FIND OUT HOW THEY STOLE THE GOOSE, KEPT IT SECRET, AND THEN COOKED IT GOOD ....

THE DEBATE CONTINUES in advance of eager intellectual investigation to solve the question of the TRUE authorship of "William Tyee Ranney"'s under-appreciated Wild West masterpiece, "THE TRAPPER'S LAST SHOT" -- which, it is asserted by Interim Editor Dromgoole, actually shows Oregon Pioneer Father JOE MEEK on special embassy to Washington City, encountered and encircled by a marauding band of BLACKFEET Indians. SPECIAL ISSUE includes a blockbuster reader contribution, revealing a hidden "R" on the horse's saddelback -- BUT also establishing that the artist possessed advanced equine experience, tending once again to suggest it was JOHN MIX STANLEY, and not W.T. RANNEY, the stay-at-home, who executed this fine painting.

A PRIMER ON REAL AMERICAN IDENITY: Treasure trove of core historical truths on the founding and development of the uniquely scientific & cultural American identity, sketched by one of our top tier historians, this essay is written in a simple & direct style for a new generation of audience. Chaitkin begins with the English -- then intrinsically American -- history of the industrial revolution and its core leadership in the person of Benjamin Franklin -- inventor, scientist, publisher, economist diplomat, and advances into the key intellectual alliances that underlay the American Project for liberating mankind -- finding a kind of early apotheosis in Nichols Biddle's management of the Second Bank of the United States (1816-1836), and realized in Lincoln's administration, and again under FDR and Kennedy. Chaitkin then demonstrates the spread of the American ideal to Germany, Russia, and the nations of South America. This article is straightforward and without footnotes -- but fact-check Chaitkin's hard-nosed accuracy and this essential distillation of history, against some of the author's copiously documented works, such as the book "Treason in America" or his co-authored, "Unauthorized Biography of George Bush", as well as a prolific list of articles in Executive Intelligence Review magazine.

Even at a remove of some 150 years following the cataclysmic conflict of the Great War of the Rebellion or CIVIL WAR -- as most would have it -- there appear to be almost no historical treatments of General Joe Hooker’s creation of the Union Army’s 6th Corps Light Division – or sometimes, the Light Brigade – in the spring of 1863; But your own memorialist, Pvt. CALIF NEWTON DREW, YANKEE SCOUT in the CIVIL WAR!! described the newly created Light Division in some detail, at p. 82 of his Memoir, where he wrote: “On parade one evening by Gen’l Orders we was informed that the Reg’t was a unit in the Light Division of the 6th Corps which was composed of the 61st Pa Inft; 31st N.Y. Inf’t ; 43rd N.Y. Inf’t; 6th Me Inf’ty; 5th Wisc. Inf’ty. The 3rd N.Y. L:ight Battery of Artillery was attached to the Division and Gen’l John Newton was put in command of the Division. “By Order of the 3rd of Feb. of Gen’l Joe Hooker, Commanding Army of the Potomac (Feb 3rd, 1863) the Light Division was supposed to be selection of the best troops in the [6th] Corps. They were to move at a moment’s notice in light marching order with 100 extra rounds of ammunition. Pack mules was to convay our knapsacks, tents, blankets and all over one days rations. We was to move with the cavalry when and where they needed infantry support, so we started to get acquainted. [P. 83 ] The 5th Wisc. was our sister regiment. The 31st Pa. we had seen under fire and they had stood up to the work in fine shape. We had a number of our men in the battery and we took the judgment of those who made the selection as to the efficiency of the New York men.” [All emphases added, here and throughout.] The newly formed Light Division saw its first major action on April 30, 1863 in the Battle of Marye’s Heights – an engagement almost as lost to history, as the Light Division itself. The battle is sometimes otherwise known as the Second Battle of Fredericksburg ... THIS IS THE REAL STORY

ROGUE RIVER VALLEY WINES now enjoy a reputation for excellence, being well-received and served in establishments of hospitality, well, almost worldwide. Wines of the Jump-Off Joe Wining District are especially sought-after, by those in-the-know. But the earlier history of this Southern Oregon wine-growing region, and some of its pre-eminent Pioneer Wines, are not so well known. This vintage matured in 1894! NOTE: The images shown in this story, are from R.E. Ivans, M.E., C.E., unique manuscript Map of the Placer Mining Properties .. on Jump Off Joe Creek (1898). This map could be copyrighted !!! – and we don’t mess with legitimate copyrights. See, e.g., How Do You Explain the Shipwrack of David Fasold’s Noah’s Ark? [Last week – Ed.] so we’re only going to show a miniature, and a few bits and pieces – just to be honorable. Players!!! Rest assured: this has nothing to do with withholding the true location of the real Bummer Gulch and Henry Wine’s claim. Or his hidden cache ….. Because – who would guess that they switched the names around, on later maps !!!! Meanwhile, most of the events related in this story took place up Jump-Off Joe, about 4-5 years before this humdinger of a map was made. But the story began earlier... much, much earlier ….and, in digging into the lodes in the neighborhood of Jump-Off-Joe Creek, you'll learn the answer to The age-old question "WHY DO THEY CALL IT BUMMER GULCH?"

THIS JAM-PACKED, GIM-CRACKED, CLASSIC-BACKED issue of the old PYM (TM) PUZZLER has long been unavailable in stores, and insatiate curiosity of the younger set, anxious to relive those bygone days of the 2011 OCCUPY movement, is driving it now up the internet fan-rankings, the question on everyone's mental lips being, forsooth, "WHAT does it in fact mean, to "OCCUPY AOI !!"?? "Pray tell." THE ANSWER OF COURSE, as is herein revealed, lies in FLAGRANTLY FLOUTING the UNWARRANTED ASSERTION of a COPYRIGHT CLAIM IN THE WORKS OF OTHERS -- including works that were original originally, as opposed to printed, or works that have long fallen into the public domain. As in, seven or eight centuries before the copyright claimant was born, or in the case of an institution, founded. We know this drives us all nearly nutty. Ramsey does it all the time, even today -- although his copyright claim notices are now in infinitesimal print....this is how he purports to "slit the baby". THEREFORE HERE, the former editors and operatives of the erstwhile P.Y.M., namely the former, but never late, interim editor Asaph P. Dromgoole and his now-formerly close companion, the now-late P., formerly living, tackle the fraudulent copyright claim(S) of the great English K.W.M, formerly the G.K.W.M., asserted in the imagery of an original work, -- a MS of the Chanson de Roland, in fact: never printed, but indeed, created before printing even existed!!

In the days following the Battle of the Wilderness (May 5-8, 1864), the Union Army moved south out of the Wilderness of Spottslyvania – Spott’s Woods -- mirroring the movements of General Lee and his Army of Northern Virginia, as General Grant continued his pursuit. Travelling little by night because of the thickets of underbrush, the Union forces moved south by road through the forests, with troops sent out skirmishing on either side, to guard the flanks of the advancing column. Private Calif Newton Drew, Pvt. Henry C. Denbo, and other scouts of the 6th Maine Infantry, were dispatched on this duty…. The Army of the Potomac eventually emerged into an area of sporadically-timbered farmland in the neighborhood of the Spottsylvania County Court House, Virginia, only to find that the rebel sharpshooters that had vigorously harassed them in the thick undergrowth of the Wilderness, had now moved up into the treetops, to positions which afforded them good vantage & many clear shots of the Union skirmishers. Nevertheless, the morning seems a routine one in war, until at the "crack" of a rifle, Union General John Sedgwick drops to the ground -- felled by a head-shot, -- and is dead. PRIVATE DREW is the last man to speak to him alive ....

THIS IS A KEY MS FOR UNDERSTANDING Hoover's unique and manifold contributions to the Roosevelt NEW DEAL. It is a complete 95-page review, entitled "Hoover's Contributions to the New Deal," written in mid-1960's by one of Roosevelt's key economic advisor's , Columbia U econ P+prof REXFORD TUGWELL, of the "Brains Trust" group, and in 1966 submitted for publication to the editor of the American Political Science Review, who rejected it. NATIONAL RECOVERY AND THE BI-PARTISAN NEW DEAL TO BREAK THE INTELLECTUAL LOGJAM regarding what, in fact, must be the administrative orientation & operational components of a revived and effective national COMMERCIAL economy, I'm posting his otherwise unpublished paper for its potential to illustrate to what degree the NEW DEAL actually was the Bi-PARTISAN creation of the FDR administration, working on a foundation laid out by HOOVER. IN FACT, SO completely were these early Roosevelt measures modeled on Hoover administration proposals, that Tugwell reports that “Prof. Raymond Moley feared that the new administration would be seen, not for its courageous plan for re-opening the banks and helping the many poor and unemployed, but for following the very plan outlined by the pro-banking Hoover administration.” IT SHOULD ALSO BE NOTED, E.G., – as Tugwell reports -- that in 1932 Hoover had recommended that the Congress also authorize the making of direct loans through the RFC, not just to banks, but also to businesses and industries. This is remarkable, because it gives the lie to Hoover as a hands-off or laissez faire in his handling of the Depresion, and shows him not just willing to work outside his professed economic ideology, but taking the initiative against it. But the Democratic Congress refused this initiative, forcing Hoover to bargain.7 Hoover wrote of the recalcitrance of the Democratic Congress, in his Memoirs Vol III, p. 107, in a passage quoted by Tugwell, where he could be describing the New Deal: "The authority to make loans to industry for improvement of plants – one of my strongest and most urgent points – was eliminated. Certain types of loans to stimulate exports of agricultural commodities and to set up a series of agricultural banks to make loans for production purposes, were defeated. Loans to enable closed banks to distribute the cash value of their assets were also defeated. Loans to public bodies which could have been used for reproductive public works were excluded. However, I determined to make the best of it and try to get it amended later." ALL THESE ORIGINAL PROPOSALS of Hoover, were later restored to the RFC, most of them after Hoover had left office. It was later left to Roosevelt to recommend that Congress should make Hoover’s original initiative into law: initiatives that Roosevelt ran against in 1932. Tugwell concludes, at pp. 58-9: The RFC either as it was in being at Roosevelt’s inauguration, or s Hoover had recommended it to be, was almost entirely his invention"

DID THE NATIVE AMERICANS OF OREGON in fact attain to an advanced culture that included hewn-stone architecture of the kind only considered characteristic of the Aztecs? Did the Oregon Indians construct a stone fortress in the Oregon coast range? And if there is one such construction, could there be a network of such stone-works? AMBROSE ARMSTRONG was a pioneer surveyor who contracted with the Oregon G.L.O. to run standard township surveys, in the early 1850's; and who was also tasked with the survey of the original Grand Ronde reservation near where Sheridan, Oregon is located today, along the South Yamhill River, in Polk and Yamhill Counties, Oregon. Records at the Oregon Historical Society -- including unpublished portions of Armstrong's book of adventures among the Oregon Indians -- clearly discuss the location of the remnants of just such a Native American STONE FORTRESS or citadel in the foothills of the Oregon Coast Range.... USING THIS INFORMATION and other data suggested in Armstrong's G.L.O. survey filings, the author was able to locate these remains ...

WAS BILLY BUDD AN ALBATROSS? Billy Bud, an Albatross? Melville had described Billy’s hanging in chapter 26 this way: “In the pinioned figure arrived at the yard-end, to the wonder of all no motion was apparent, none save that created by the ships’s motion, in moderate weather so majestic in a great ship ponderously cannoned.” The H.M.S. Dromedary mounted 44 guns, which might qualify the Dromedary as “ponderously cannoned” -- but, of course, so might any of scores of other British vessels of the age. At any rate, it is the ship’s MOTION, not her identity that is the focus of this line from Billy Budd. The ship’s ocean-going motions – yaw, roll, and pitch -- were the motions of all on board, who compensated instinctively, via a certain attunement of the inner-ear, or the acquisition of their “sea-legs,” to highly complex motions that could only have been interpreted, on land, as instability. Cf. “Sway”, “surge’ and “heave”. But these same motions were more “ponderously” imparted to the suspended bodies of the three mutineers, whose pendulous weight[s], elevated, and extended at the end of the yard-arm, would undergo corresponding acceleration of their movement, and amplification of inertial forces .. and more swinging.

Calif Newton Drew, sub. nom “Sam” the slave, after a late night playing a Christmas Eve coloreds-only ball, in some large but unidentified warehouse down on the Richmond waterfront, had just pushed off from somewhere along the Richmond docks, quiet on this Christmas morning, out onto the frigid waters of the James River, as they make their desperate clandestine getaway from … RICHMOND, SEAT of the CONFEDERACY !!As part of the escape plan, Pvt. Drew is now thoroughly disguised in black-face makeup that was expertly applied by none other than George the slave himself, who, as an African-American, has an expert’s insight into this sort of thing, and who – being a barber – also cut Pvt. Drew’s hair “so short you could hardly see it.” [See last issue ! – Ed.] Now, with this baffling role-reversal, Pvt. Drew looks the spittin’ image of a strong young Ni….Ne….ne… ni … n-n African-American man, and is a suitable street-companion for George. Thus united in intent, and now largely in appearance, the two fugitives are stuck together like brothers, and ready to execute their common plan !!! WILL THEY ESCAPE THE TENTACLES OF THE SLAVE STATE?

THE U.S. ECONOMY NEEDS, IN PART, a Commerce Department re-organized along the lines of the one created by Herbert Hoover, during his service as Commerce Secretary. This Cabinet office became the engine to America's "Arsenal of Democracy" on the outbreak of WWII, What Roosevelt appreciated in Hoover's Commerce Dept., was , however, was the extraordinary development and increase of influence that had accrued to Commerce, once it was helmed by a serious, hard-boiled U.S. mining engineer, responsible for successfully and profitably extracting mineral ores from the “bosom of the earth” using the most ingenious, leading-edge but reliable subterranean excavation, construction, mineral extraction technologies – and hard labor: Hoover himself had gotten his start working in the mines near Nevada City, California where he pushed mine-cars bodily, or manually, for a living. He also had to track the latest chemical-assaying techniques, work out cost-benefit projections for the latest milling machinery, guarantee the maintenance and upkeep of equipment, safety of existing shafts, and the digging of new ones, and personally create the “interfacing” of often–inaccessible mine-owners digs, by seeing to the construction of stub lines to the nearest rail-connections, in order to ensure transfer of ores to milling and processing plants sometimes scores or hundreds of miles away; and bring it all to work employing sometimes strife-ridden labor: all to start and then maintain productivity, not merely as against a fluctuating market demand, but sometimes also against all the physical, geological and material resistance that Mother Nature could compile to thwart him. The role of the mining engineer, in interfacing between hard, natural & physical contingencies and the masses of economic mankind, in order to render the former economically fruitful to the latter, is little appreciated today, when business often is reduced to playing by or adjusting man-made rules … creating new manners of valueless fictional papers is seen as showing business acumen.

The story begins when a strange single-masted vessel moors along the waterfront in Oregon City, just below the Falls, and begins buying up all the supplies in town !!! Why? SOON ENOUGH word leaks out of the gold strikes in the Sacramento valley, and before long wagon-trains are forming up locally, and men are leaving behind their well-tended fields and crops,their homesteads, and even their wives and children, for a long-shot chance to STRIKE IT RICH !! Amongst these men are some significant figures, who will soon make their mark on California history -- most notably the Honorable "P.' who makes a point of soliciting into his company, one young man, Charlie Putnam: the unknown, nondescript typesetter for the only newspaper being published on the Tualatin Plains in 1848 !!

Following the decisive Battle of Rappahannock Station on the Rappahannock River, on November 7, 1863, General Lee and the Army of Northern Virginia, DEFEATED, have now RETREATED further into Virginia, abandoning their Winter Quarters in Culpeper County, and continuing on south into Orange County, taking up new positions, and establishing his camp south of the Rapidan River in Orange County, near an overflown creek, known as Mine Run. Union Gen Meade gives Gen. John Sedgwick one last campaign assignment. The Mine Run Campaign, so-called, was the General Meade's last-ditch effort to engage Lee's Army before the full onset of the Winter of ‘63-64. But Lee's new Winter Quarters south of Mine Run were so formidably defended -- by swamplands to the northwest, mingling with the overflown ice-cold waters of Mine Run itself, and a dozen other small creeks and sloughs; and furthermore blocked with thickets of slash and timber – “abattis” -- that the Army of Northern Virginia was completely impregnable to standard attack here!! The landscape was incomprehensible to military tactics, and thus thwarted every strategy: therefore, skirmishes dominated the "campaign" and isolated limited engagements marked the end of the 1863 fighting season, with Meade throwing in the towel. Such indeterminacy does not make for STANDARD military literature -- but Pvt. Drew's narrative of scouting MINE RUN, and other relevant action, can be counter-pointed with other accounts to realize a vivid vision of the wintertime action !!

Certainly it also illustrates something all of Washington has forgotten, that the U.S. economy has a historical & widespread cultural foundation in serious scientific agriculture and in the pursuit of improvements both in cultivation techniques and in policies that benefited the FARMER.

Chaitkin begins with the English -- then intrinsically American -- history of the industrial revolution and its core leadership in the person of Benjamin Franklin -- inventor, scientist, publisher, economist diplomat, and advances into the key intellectual alliances that underlay the American Project for liberating mankind -- finding a kind of early apotheosis in Nichols Biddle's management of the Second Bank of the United States (1816-1836), and realized in Lincoln's administration, and again under FDR and Kennedy. Chaitkin then demonstrates the spread of the American ideal to Germany, Russia, and the nations of South America. This article is straightforward and without footnotes -- but fact-check Chaitkin's hard-nosed accuracy and this essential distillation of history, against some of the author's copiously documented works, such as the book "Treason in America" or his co-authored, "Unauthorized Biography of George Bush", as well as a prolific list of articles in Executive Intelligence Review magazine.

Even at a remove of some 150 years following the cataclysmic conflict of the Great War of the Rebellion or CIVIL WAR -- as most would have it -- there appear to be almost no historical treatments of General Joe Hooker’s creation of the Union Army’s 6th Corps Light Division – or sometimes, the Light Brigade – in the spring of 1863; But your own memorialist, Pvt. CALIF NEWTON DREW, YANKEE SCOUT in the CIVIL WAR!! described the newly created Light Division in some detail, at p. 82 of his Memoir, where he wrote: “On parade one evening by Gen’l Orders we was informed that the Reg’t was a unit in the Light Division of the 6th Corps which was composed of the 61st Pa Inft; 31st N.Y. Inf’t ; 43rd N.Y. Inf’t; 6th Me Inf’ty; 5th Wisc. Inf’ty. The 3rd N.Y. L:ight Battery of Artillery was attached to the Division and Gen’l John Newton was put in command of the Division. “By Order of the 3rd of Feb. of Gen’l Joe Hooker, Commanding Army of the Potomac (Feb 3rd, 1863) the Light Division was supposed to be selection of the best troops in the [6th] Corps. They were to move at a moment’s notice in light marching order with 100 extra rounds of ammunition. Pack mules was to convay our knapsacks, tents, blankets and all over one days rations. We was to move with the cavalry when and where they needed infantry support, so we started to get acquainted. [P. 83 ] The 5th Wisc. was our sister regiment. The 31st Pa. we had seen under fire and they had stood up to the work in fine shape. We had a number of our men in the battery and we took the judgment of those who made the selection as to the efficiency of the New York men.” [All emphases added, here and throughout.] The newly formed Light Division saw its first major action on April 30, 1863 in the Battle of Marye’s Heights – an engagement almost as lost to history, as the Light Division itself. The battle is sometimes otherwise known as the Second Battle of Fredericksburg ... THIS IS THE REAL STORY

ROGUE RIVER VALLEY WINES now enjoy a reputation for excellence, being well-received and served in establishments of hospitality, well, almost worldwide. Wines of the Jump-Off Joe Wining District are especially sought-after, by those in-the-know. But the earlier history of this Southern Oregon wine-growing region, and some of its pre-eminent Pioneer Wines, are not so well known. This vintage matured in 1894! NOTE: The images shown in this story, are from R.E. Ivans, M.E., C.E., unique manuscript Map of the Placer Mining Properties .. on Jump Off Joe Creek (1898). This map could be copyrighted !!! – and we don’t mess with legitimate copyrights. See, e.g., How Do You Explain the Shipwrack of David Fasold’s Noah’s Ark? [Last week – Ed.] so we’re only going to show a miniature, and a few bits and pieces – just to be honorable. Players!!! Rest assured: this has nothing to do with withholding the true location of the real Bummer Gulch and Henry Wine’s claim. Or his hidden cache ….. Because – who would guess that they switched the names around, on later maps !!!! Meanwhile, most of the events related in this story took place up Jump-Off Joe, about 4-5 years before this humdinger of a map was made. But the story began earlier... much, much earlier ….and, in digging into the lodes in the neighborhood of Jump-Off-Joe Creek, you'll learn the answer to The age-old question "WHY DO THEY CALL IT BUMMER GULCH?" YES.. this is indeed the very FIRST issue oF SYM-ZOnia !!

BACK BY POPULAR DEMAND -- OCCUPY AOI !! THIS JAM-PACKED, GIM-CRACKED, CLASSIC-BACKED issue of the old PYM (TM) PUZZLER has long been unavailable in stores, and insatiate curiosity of the younger set, anxious to relive those bygone days of the 2011 OCCUPY movement, is driving it now up the internet fan-rankings, the question on everyone's mental lips being, forsooth, "WHAT does it in fact mean, to "OCCUPY AOI !!"?? "Pray tell." THE ANSWER OF COURSE, as is herein revealed, lies in FLAGRANTLY FLOUTING the UNWARRANTED ASSERTION of a COPYRIGHT CLAIM IN THE WORKS OF OTHERS -- including works that were original originally, as opposed to printed, or works that have long fallen into the public domain. As in, seven or eight centuries before the copyright claimant was born, or in the case of an institution, founded. We know this drives us all nearly nutty. Ramsey does it all the time, even today -- although his copyright claim notices are now in infinitesimal print....this is how he purports to "slit the baby". THEREFORE HERE, the former editors and operatives of the erstwhile P.Y.M., namely the former, but never late, interim editor Asaph P. Dromgoole and his now-formerly close companion, the now-late P., formerly living, tackle the fraudulent copyright claim(S) of the great English K.W.M, formerly the G.K.W.M., asserted in the imagery of an original work, -- a MS of the Chanson de Roland, in fact: never printed, but indeed, created before printing even existed!! THE NERVE !! These former PYM officials rip the mask off this international fraud -- and live to crow about it: OCCUPY AOI !!! All this is yours for the taking, in this FREE SAMPLE !!

In the days following the Battle of the Wilderness (May 5-8, 1864), the Union Army moved south out of the Wilderness of Spottslyvania – Spott’s Woods -- mirroring the movements of General Lee and his Army of Northern Virginia, as General Grant continued his pursuit. Travelling little by night because of the thickets of underbrush, the Union forces moved south by road through the forests, with troops sent out skirmishing on either side, to guard the flanks of the advancing column. Private Calif Newton Drew, Pvt. Henry C. Denbo, and other scouts of the 6th Maine Infantry, were dispatched on this duty…. The Army of the Potomac eventually emerged into an area of sporadically-timbered farmland in the neighborhood of the Spottsylvania County Court House, Virginia, only to find that the rebel sharpshooters that had vigorously harassed them in the thick undergrowth of the Wilderness, had now moved up into the treetops, to positions which afforded them good vantage & many clear shots of the Union skirmishers. Nevertheless, the morning seems a routine one in war, until at the "crack" of a rifle, Union General John Sedgwick drops to the ground -- felled by a head-shot, -- and is dead. PRIVATE DREW is the last man to speak to him alive ....

THIS IS A KEY MS FOR UNDERSTANDING Hoover's unique and manifold contributions to the Roosevelt NEW DEAL. It is a complete 95-page review, entitled "Hoover's Contributions to the New Deal," written in mid-1960's by one of Roosevelt's key economic advisor's , Columbia U econ P+prof REXFORD TUGWELL, of the "Brains Trust" group, and in 1966 submitted for publication to the editor of the American Political Science Review, who rejected it. NATIONAL RECOVERY AND THE BI-PARTISAN NEW DEAL TO BREAK THE INTELLECTUAL LOGJAM regarding what, in fact, must be the administrative orientation & operational components of a revived and effective national COMMERCIAL economy, I'm posting his otherwise unpublished paper for its potential to illustrate to what degree the NEW DEAL actually was the Bi-PARTISAN creation of the FDR administration, working on a foundation laid out by HOOVER. IN FACT, SO completely were these early Roosevelt measures modeled on Hoover administration proposals, that Tugwell reports that “Prof. Raymond Moley feared that the new administration would be seen, not for its courageous plan for re-opening the banks and helping the many poor and unemployed, but for following the very plan outlined by the pro-banking Hoover administration.” IT SHOULD ALSO BE NOTED, E.G., – as Tugwell reports -- that in 1932 Hoover had recommended that the Congress also authorize the making of direct loans through the RFC, not just to banks, but also to businesses and industries. This is remarkable, because it gives the lie to Hoover as a hands-off or laissez faire in his handling of the Depresion, and shows him not just willing to work outside his professed economic ideology, but taking the initiative against it. But the Democratic Congress refused this initiative, forcing Hoover to bargain.7 Hoover wrote of the recalcitrance of the Democratic Congress, in his Memoirs Vol III, p. 107, in a passage quoted by Tugwell, where he could be describing the New Deal: "The authority to make loans to industry for improvement of plants – one of my strongest and most urgent points – was eliminated. Certain types of loans to stimulate exports of agricultural commodities and to set up a series of agricultural banks to make loans for production purposes, were defeated. Loans to enable closed banks to distribute the cash value of their assets were also defeated. Loans to public bodies which could have been used for reproductive public works were excluded. However, I determined to make the best of it and try to get it amended later." ALL THESE ORIGINAL PROPOSALS of Hoover, were later restored to the RFC, most of them after Hoover had left office. It was later left to Roosevelt to recommend that Congress should make Hoover’s original initiative into law: initiatives that Roosevelt ran against in 1932. Tugwell concludes, at pp. 58-9: The RFC either as it was in being at Roosevelt’s inauguration, or s Hoover had recommended it to be, was almost entirely his invention"

DID THE NATIVE AMERICANS OF OREGON in fact attain to an advanced culture that included hewn-stone architecture of the kind only considered characteristic of the Aztecs? Did the Oregon Indians construct a stone fortress in the Oregon coast range? And if there is one such construction, could there be a network of such stone-works? AMBROSE ARMSTRONG was a pioneer surveyor who contracted with the Oregon G.L.O. to run standard township surveys, in the early 1850's; and who was also tasked with the survey of the original Grand Ronde reservation near where Sheridan, Oregon is located today, along the South Yamhill River, in Polk and Yamhill Counties, Oregon. Records at the Oregon Historical Society -- including unpublished portions of Armstrong's book of adventures among the Oregon Indians -- clearly discuss the location of the remnants of just such a Native American STONE FORTRESS or citadel in the foothills of the Oregon Coast Range.... USING THIS INFORMATION and other data suggested in Armstrong's G.L.O. survey filings, the author was able to locate these remains ...
