Reagan: Denouncing the Morality Gap at Berkeley, 1966



DENOUNCING THE MORALITY GAP AT BERKELEY, 1966
Ronald Reagan

Ronald Reagan ran for governor of California in 1966 - some say by pandering to the Right about the ungrateful children at Berkeley who needed a spanking. Others, however, defend Reagan for speaking against what he called "the mess at Berkeley" and that students should have been spending more time studying than protesting. In any event, California voters found Reagan's calls for law and order and a sense of decency, particularly on the campuses, widely appealing and elected him governor. This passage is from his 1966 speech at the San Francisco Cow Palace.

The Guild System (Belloc)

The Guild System

Economics, Guilds, Hilaire BellocPosted by on November 26, 2011 11:45 AM
The Guild is the oldest, most necessary, most deeply rooted, of all human institutions. It has appeared in all civilizations which are at all stable, because it is necessary to stability. It has flourished especially at a time when our race was agreed upon a common religion and had a common high civilization. It only disappeared comparatively recently. We shall be compelled to restore it if we are to enjoy freedom at all, and the sooner we do so on the right lines the better. It will be especially valuable in the industrial field, which is that part of human life which most needs setting right today.

Line of succession to the former throne of Württemberg

Jump to:navigationsearch
The monarchy of Württemberg came to an end in 1918 along with the rest of the monarchies that made up the German Empire. The last member of the dynasty to reign as King of Württemberg was William II.
With the death of William II in 1921, succession to the royal claim bypassed the former Duke of Teck and the Duke of Urach, both of whom descended from morganatic marriages, and the headship of the royal house was inherited by Albrecht, Duke of Württemberg, of the Roman Catholic, Altshausen branch of the royal family. The current head of the House of Württemberg is Carl, Duke of Württemberg. His elder brother Duke Ludwig Albrecht had previously renounced his succession rights for himself and his issue.
The succession is determined by Article 7 of the 1819 Constitution of the Kingdom of Württemberg, which states, "The right of the succession to the throne belongs to the male line of the royal house; the order of the same is determined by the succession of lines according to primogeniture."[1] The current order of succession is:
  • Duke Albrecht (1865–1939)
    • Duke Philipp Albrecht (1893–1975)
      • Duke Carl (born 1936)
        • Duke Friedrich (1961–2018)
          • (1) Duke Wilhelm (born 1994)
        • (2) Duke Eberhard (born 1963)
          • (3) Duke Alexander (born 2010)
        • (4) Duke Philipp (born 1964)
          • (5) Duke Carl Theodor (born 1999)
        • (6) Duke Michael (born 1965)
    • Duke Albrecht Eugen (1895–1954)
      • (7) Duke Ferdinand Eugen (born 1925)
      • (8) Duke Eugen Eberhard (born 1930)
      • (9) Duke Alexander Eugen (born 1933)
