Physicist & educator Eugénie Cotton was born #OTD in 1881.

A student of Marie Curie, she was the top female physics scholar in France in 1904 & ran the elite École de Sèvres, transforming scientific education for women. Her research focused on the magnetic properties of matter. 🧵

A black-and-white photograph of French physicist and globally influential women's rights activist Eugénie Cotton (1881–1967). Captured from the chest up, she stands in a three-quarter turn facing left, and her intense, thoughtful gaze looks slightly past the camera. Her silver-gray hair is smoothed tightly across her head, and gathered into a low bun at the back. Her face shows deep lines of experience and determination, with dark, prominent eyes and a firm, closed mouth. She wears a crisp, bright white collared button-down shirt fastened tightly at the neck with a decorative, round metallic brooch. Over the blouse, she wears a structured, dark blazer or jacket, with a small rectangular pin visible on her left lapel. The background is softly out of focus, showing textured fabric drapery and a hint of an indistinct white object. The composition feels intimate and serious, emphasizing her commanding presence, intellectual focus, and late-career dignity as a leading voice for global peace.

#OtD 13 Oct 1947 the Soviet military govt in East Germany introduced measures to fight "slackers", including piecework pay and bigger wage differentials. But workers resisted: they shared food and goods, and did slowdowns and sabotage stories.workingclasshistory.com/article/8524...

WWII forced Yves Montand (born #OTD in 1921) to work in French shipyards where he sang for co-workers. This started a successful career despite the horrors and prohibitions around him but camp photos affected him so much that he became reclusive.

#OTD 13 October 1943. #WW2 Italy. This evening, Italians hear on the radio that they are at war with Germany. For partisan like Ada Gobetti, the news makes little difference ... they don't need Badoglio to tell them what to do.

"Kampf gegen von Papen" – CDU-SPD-Streit 1946 über 1932, @tagesspiegel.de #OTD.

Für historische Wahrheit
Lippstadt, 12. Oktober (DPD)
Gegen Dr. Adenauer, der sich kürzlich in einer Rede mit der kritischen Zeit des Jahres 1932 beschäftigt hatte, wandte sich auf einer SPD- Kundgebung in Lippstadt der damalige preußische Innenminister Severing. Er wisse nicht, sagte er, ob Dr. Adenauer damals den preußischen Ministerpräsidenten Braun aufgesucht habe. Notwendig sei dies nicht gewesen, da der Kampf gegen von Papen und sein „Kabinett der Barone" von der Sozialdemokratie besonders klar geführt worden sei. Was Adenauer über ihn selbst gesagt habe, bezeichnete Severing als Wort für Wort unrichtig. Die damalige Zentrumspartei habe schon vor dem 20. Juli 1932 versucht, die sozialdemokratischen Minister zur Aufgabe ihrer Aemter zu bewegen, um mit den Nationalsozialisten verhandeln zu können. Nur die durch den Sturz Brünings verschärfte politische Situation und später die hessischen Landtagswahlen hätten diese Aktion des Zentrums unterbrochen. Die deutsche Not solle das Wiedererstehen des elenden Parteizanks nicht zulassen, betonte Severing; mit Politikern aber, die geflissentlich die historische Wahrheit fälschten, sei eine Verständigung sehr schwer, denn sie machten sich damit bündnisunfähig.
