# David John Lewis

David John Lewis (May 1, 1869 – August 12, 1952) was an American politician from Maryland, serving in the Maryland State Senate and the United States House of Representatives.

## Early life

Born near Osceola Mills, Centre County, Pennsylvania, to Welsh immigrants, Lewis worked in the local coal mines from 1878 to 1892. He studied law and Latin in his spare time, was admitted to the bar in 1892, and commenced practice in Cumberland, Maryland.

## Political career

Lewis served as a member of the Maryland State Senate from 1902 to 1906, and was an unsuccessful Democratic candidate for election to the Sixty-first Congress in 1908. In 1910, he was elected as a Democrat to the Sixty-second, Sixty-third, and Sixty-fourth Congresses, serving the sixth district of Maryland from March 4, 1911, to March 3, 1917. During the Sixty-third and Sixty-fourth Congresses, he served as chairman of the House Committee on Labor. He was not a candidate for renomination in 1916, but was an unsuccessful Democratic candidate for election to the United States Senate.
From April 1917 to March 1925, Lewis was a member of the United States Tariff Commission. He was again an unsuccessful candidate for the Democratic nomination for the United States Senate in 1922, and resumed the practice of law in Cumberland. He was again elected to the Seventy-second and to the three succeeding Congresses, serving the sixth district of Maryland from March 4, 1931, to January 3, 1939, but was not a candidate for renomination in 1938, having run for senator, challenging incumbent Millard Tydings in the Democratic primary. Lewis was more sympathetic to the New Deal than Tydings and won the backing of President Franklin D. Roosevelt. Nevertheless, his third bid for the Senate was again unsuccessful, and instead he served as a member of the National Mediation Board from 1939 to 1943. He died in Cumberland on August 12, 1952, and is interred in Hillcrest Cemetery.

## Social Security Act

David John Lewis was the leading expert on social insurance legislation on the House Ways & Means Committee. He introduced the Social Security bill into the House on January 17, 1935. However, Chairman Doughton, exercising what he took to be the Chairman's privileges, made a copy of Lewis' bill and submitted it himself. Then he persuaded the House clerk to give him a lower number than Lewis' copy. Newspapers then began calling the bill "The Wagner-Doughton bill." When Lewis found out, he sputtered and swore, then went to work to understand every sentence and master the arguments in favor of the bill. And when David Lewis walked down the aisle of the House to debate on the bill's behalf, he received a standing ovation.

The Radiolarian Series is an album project by experimental jazz fusion trio Medeski Martin & Wood released in three installments in 2008–2009.

## Background

In early 2008 the band announced on their official website: "Medeski Martin & Wood are planning three tours, plus three albums in 2008. Each tour and subsequent album will consist of all NEW MUSIC. The plan: Write > Tour > Record > Repeat."
"The problem with us," keyboardist John Medeski explains, "is that when we record an album, by the time a record company gets it out, we’ve already been playing the music for six or eight months, and we’re ready to move on."
The three volumes of The Radiolarian Series were first released as three separate albums. The series was also released as a 5-CD box set in 2009.
The Radiolarian Series takes its name from radiolarians (also radiolaria), amoeboid protozoa that produce intricate mineral skeletons, typically with a central capsule dividing the cell into inner and outer portions, called endoplasm and ectoplasm.
Radiolaria grow their intricately beautiful patterned skeleton around their soft core in defiance of normal biological process. This is, according to the band, "similar to Medeski Martin and Wood's latest creative cycle."
The Radiolarian Series consists of music composed and developed over the course of the band's three-part 2008 "Viva la Evolution" Tour:
* Part One: February 19–29 (Northeast U.S.)
* Part Two: July 11–18 (Southeast U.S.)
* Part Three: November 12–22 (Pacific Northwest (U.S. & Canada))

# Emil Olszowy

Emil Olszowy (October 18, 1921 – April 18, 1980) was an American Republican Party politician from Passaic, New Jersey. He served on the city council there and for four years in the New Jersey General Assembly.

## Biography

Olszowy was born in Passaic in 1921. He married Anne D. Niewaroski and had one son, Ronald, born in 1945. He served in the United States Navy during World War II and from 1947 to 1968 was in the United States Army Reserve attaining the rank of Major. A graduate from New York University, he worked as an insurance broker and was vice president of the Manhattan Rubber Workers Union. He also was a part of the American Legion.
In January 1973, Olszowy was appointed to the Passaic city council and was elected to the council in November. He served on the council until taking his seat in the Assembly. In 1975, Olszowy ran for the Assembly from the 34th district consisting of southern Passaic County municipalities. Though Democratic incumbent William J. Bate came overwhelmingly in first place in the general election, Olszowy defeated another incumbent Democrat Herb Klein by just under 500 votes. Klein's backing of Governor Brendan Byrne's state income tax proposal was a factor in his defeat. During a late night 1976 session in the sweltering Assembly chambers during a debate on the creation of the income tax, Olszowy stood up. Speaker Joseph A. LeFante called on Olszowy to ask for the reason of his rising. Olszowy responded, "Mr. Speaker, I rise to aerate my shorts." He was reelected in 1977 and 1979, both times with Democrat Bate.
Olszowy died on April 18, 1980, of a heart attack at Passaic General Hospital. Following his death, The Record of Bergen County published an obituary which mentioned his arrest at 16 years of age for robbery. Assembly Speaker Christopher Jackman decried the newspaper for referencing it in his obituary. The newspaper publisher responded that as the arrest was brought up by a former political opponent that it was germane to publish.
