Opening Comments
Chairman Miles welcomed everyone to the meeting and described what happened this day in history: In 1944, Franklin D Roosevelt signed the G.I. Bill, an unprecedented act of legislation designed to compensate returning members of the armed services for their efforts in World War II. In 1938, Joe Louis had a stunning first-round knockout of Max Schmeling at Yankee Stadium in New York City. In 1945, the Battle of Okinawa ended. In 1970, President Richard Nixon signed an extension of the 1965 Voting Rights Act, mandating that the voting age be lowered to 18 in all federal, state, and local elections.
Treasurer Stephen Potter said the prayer.
