On his way to a dinner speech in Harrisburg, PA in June 1952, Kefauver stops to comb his hair using a drugstore window as a mirror.

When you're on the road, sometimes you need to make do with what you have!

#OTD in 1944, Senator Sheridan Downey of CA promotes his postwar plan for Japanese Americans. While the "disloyal" would be deported to Japan, Downey proposes resettling American-born Japanese across the US, while only permitting a few to return to the West Coast.

"Japs May Disperse In U. S.--Downey"
WASHINGTON. Sept. 30. A gradual dispersal of Japanese-Americans throughout the United States after the war may be the only feasible solution to the Pacific Coast's racial problem, Senator Sheridan Downey, Democrat, California, said yesterday.
Many of them, Downey pointed out. are American citizens, with rights protected by the Constitution. These probably cannot be forced to remain away from the Coast in peacetime, he added. although their present segregation may be necessary for military sources.
However, Downey said, the disloyal Japanese, including American citizens of Japanese descent, must be weeded out and returned to Japan. Then, Downey said, chances will be good for a gradual solution of the problem, perhaps permitting the return of a few American Japanese to the coastal areas.

The image is so rich that the vases in the back - with handles of twisted snakes which spit at each other - are not even the best detail to mention. From 1805 with pure love. #skystorians

I’m v grateful for Owen for making this link! The panel I found washed up this morning is from the Cutty Sark - how & why it ended up here via the Thames & Medway rivers remains a mystery, though. #skystorians
