Slaves and the Courts, 1740-1860 is the latest addition to the more than one
hundred online collections that are a part of the American Memory
Historical Collections presented by the Library of Congress. This new collection
features about one hundred pamphlets and books documenting the difficult experiences
of African and African-American slaves in the American colonies and the United States.
Drawn from the Law Library and the Rare Book and Special Collections Division of the
Library of Congress, these materials include an assortment of trials and cases,
reports,
arguments, examinations of cases and decisions, proceedings, and other works of
historical
importance concerning slaves in free jurisdictions, fugitive slaves, slave revolts,
the African
slave trade, and abolitionists in the North and South.
Highlights of the collection include the cases of Somerset v. Stewart, 1772, which
laid the
groundwork for the abolition of slavery in England, and Dred Scott, 1857, which helped
precipitate
the Civil War, as well as the memoirs of Daniel Drayton, who helped slaves escape to
freedom.
Other materials document the work of John Quincy Adams and William Lloyd Garrison to
abolish
slavery and the trial of John Brown. The collection contains courtroom transcripts,
important speeches
from trials, lawyers' trial arguments, and Supreme Court decisions. A special
presentation shows a
manuscript slave code of 1860 from the District of Columbia.
The collection can be found at the following url:

Subject: Teachers' Salaries Barely Match Living Costs, NEA Says
http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/articles/A10975-2002Apr7.html
Associated Press
Monday, April 8, 2002; Page A18 Salaries for the nation's teachers barely
kept pace with living costs in the 1990s, rising 31 percent to about $43,000,
the nation's largest teachers union said.
In its annual report on state spending in education, to be released today,
the National Education Association said teachers' salaries rose 0.5 percent
from 1990 to 2000 when inflation is taken into account. In many states, the
union said, teachers lost ground to inflation.
"As more money was invested in public education, teacher salaries remained
stagnant -- all while the U.S. was in a time of economic expansion," NEA
President Bob Chase said.
