Remarks of Robert S. Henry, Vice President, Association of American Railroads, Before the Coe Foundation Institute of American Studies of the University of South Carolina, Columbia, South Carolina, July 3 1958
註釋 R.S. Henry's talk at University of South Carolina represented an early program sponsored by the recently-organized Coe Foundation Institute of American Studies, a department named for wealthy philanthropist William Robertson Coe (1869-1955), who, like Henry, had enjoyed success as a railroad executive. A native of England who migrated to the United States as a teenager. In later life, Coe's efforts to encourage the expansion of academic programs dedicated to American Studies included the creation of endowed professorships at Yale, Stanford, and the University of Wyoming, which represented one aspect of the various philanthropic projects he funded to support the United States during the cold war.
