Why did Marshall describe the economy in Europe over the past 10 years as "highly
abnormal"?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

When Secretary of State Marshall accepted an invitation from Harvard University to receive an honorary degree during the first week in June 1947, the State Department informed the president of the Alumni Association that Marshall would make a speech for the afternoon meeting of the Harvard Alumni Association but that Marshall did not want it to be a major speech of the occasion. There were no discussions with representatives of other governments; there were no notifications of the American press that an important speech was to be delivered, and even Harvard President James B. Conant did not expect a major address from General Marshall.

The speech was drafted by Chip Bohlen, a Russia specialist and interpreter who used memoranda from the Director of the Policy Planning Staff George F. Kennan and from Under Secretary of State for Economic Affairs William Clayton. Bohlen especially benefited from Clayton’s graphic oral descriptions of Europe’s situation. In the memorandum he wrote, “Millions of people in the cities are slowly starving,” if the standard of living continued to deteriorate, “there will be revolution.”

On the day of the speech the capacity crowd of 15,000 in Harvard Yard did not expect to see history made but simply to see one of the most admired public servants in America. However when Secretary Marshall began to read his speech there was a recognition that the carefully worded remarks on the political and economic crisis in Europe marked an important event. In that speech, Marshall outlined the need for an economic aid plan to help the devastated nations of Europe and their citizens to recover from the ravages of World War II. When Marshall said, “It is logical that the United States should do whatever it is able to do to assist in the return of normal economic health in the world, without which there can be no political stability and no assured peace,” the Secretary of State committed the United States to consider a European recovery plan that would be developed by the Europeans and presented to the United States. Thus was launched The Marshall Plan for which George C. Marshall would be awarded the Nobel Peace Prize.

But fresh archaeological finds have established that humans reached the Americas thousands of years before that.
These discoveries, along with insights from genetics and geology, have prompted reconsideration of where these pioneers came from, when they arrived and what route they took into the New World.

what agreement led to the withdrawll of federal troops from the south

Answers

The agreement that led to the withdrawal of federal troops from the south was the Compromise of 1877.

What was the Compromise of 1877?

the 1876 presidential election between Republican Rutherford B. Hayes and Democrat Samuel J. Tilden, leaving Rutherford Hayes as president.

This agreement established that the electoral colleges would grant the presidency to Hayes, in exchange for his government accepting certain demands of the Democratic Party led by Tilden. This agreement was accepted by the Republican party to prevent the Democratic party from imposing limitations on the Hayes government.

The commitments demanded by the Democratic Party were mainly focused on benefiting the population of the South that 12 years ago had been defeated in the Civil War. For example:

The withdrawal of all federal government troops that remained in the southern states; Although in 1876 only Louisiana, South Carolina, and Florida were still under military occupation, the Compromise hastened the end of this situation. Appoint at least one Southern Democrat to Hayes' cabinet. Build a transcontinental railroad from the southern states to the Pacific Ocean, starting from Texas. Establish laws for the industrialization of the South.

Contusion vs. Concussion: Symptoms, Causes, and Treatment

Author: Spinalcord.com Team

Publish Date: May 20, 2020

Contusions-and-Concussions-Are-Similar

Newly-initiated spinal cord injury survivors are hit with a dizzying array of terms to remember—and doctors aren't always the best at simplifying what their endless list of jargon actually means to patients. For example, two terms that are closely associated with head/brain injuries are contusion and concussion. These terms are often used semi-interchangeably by non-experts, but doctors often have a set definition in mind when they use either term.

“What is a contusion? What is a concussion? How do the two terms differ from one another? What treatments are available for each? How can I tell if I have a contusion or a concussion?” People who have experienced any kind of severe head injury often have questions like these. Here is some information to help you answer these questions:

What is a Contusion?

What is another name for contusion? The word “contusion” is basically another word for a bruise—a collection of blood not in a blood vessel. Contusions can also be referred to as hematomas (based on the Greek words for “blood” and “mass”).

Contusions can occur in any part of the body subjected to trauma that ruptures blood vessels. For example, say you get hit hard in the arm with a baseball, and it bruises. That bruise could be called a contusion by medical professionals. Or, say you fall hard on your back, and it bruises. That could be a sign of a spinal contusion—which can be every bit as bad as a contusion in the brain.

What is a Concussion?

The term “concussion” generally refers to widespread brain trauma due to a blow to the head, shaking, or a similar injury. While contusions can happen anywhere on the body, concussions are specific to injuries that affect the brain—and may not involve visible bruises.

The effects of a concussion are varied, and may change in severity depending on the location of the injury, the severity of the force applied to the brain, and the quality of care following the injury.

Contusion Vs Concussion

Infographic: Concussion vs Contusion

One might assume a concussion is just a more serious contusion. The reality is that the two injuries are fundamentally different. While they are related, and one can cause the other, understanding the difference between a concussion vs contusion can help you get a better idea of what to expect from your recovery journey.

Because both contusions and concussions are a type of traumatic brain injury (TBI), and because both are often the result of a fall or blow to the head, it's easy to confuse the two. Even more confusing is the fact that you can have both at the same time.

A contusion does not mean you have a concussion, but some contusions are caused by head trauma so severe that the damage affects a larger portion of your brain. Likewise, a concussion does not necessarily indicate a contusion, since shaking and other brain injuries can produce brain damage without visible bruising.

The difference between the two ultimately comes down to a simple distinction:

A contusion is any injury that causes blood to collect under the skin. Contusions range from relatively minor to life-threatening. Because the blood must clot to stop the bleeding a bruise results from, contusions also increase cardiovascular risks.

A concussion is an injury resulting specifically from brain trauma. These injuries can have both temporary and lasting
