Today in History
Today is Saturday, Dec. 8, the 342nd day of 2001. There are 23
days left in the year.
Todays Highlight in History:
On Dec. 8, 1941, the United States entered World War II as
Congress declared war against Japan, a day after the attack on
Pearl Harbor.
On this date:
In 1776, George Washington s retreating army in the American
Revolution crossed the Delaware River from New. Jersey to
Pennsylvania.
In 1854, Pope Pius IX proclaimed the dogma of the Immaculate
Conception.
In 1863, President Lincoln announced his plan for the recon-
struction of the South.
, In 1886, the American Federation of Labor was founded in
Columbus, Ohio.
In 1949, the Chinese Nationalist government moved from the
Chinese mainland to Formosa as the Communists pressed their
attacks.
In 1978, former Israeli Prime Minister Golda Meir died in
Jerusalem at age 80.
In 1980, rock star John Lennon was shot to death outside his
New York City apartment building by an apparently deranged fan.
In 1987, President Reagan and Soviet leader Mikhail S.
Gorbachev signed a treaty calling for destruction of intermediate-
range nuclear missiles.
In 1987, the "intifada" (Arabic for uprising) by Palestinians in
the Israeli-occupied territories began.
In 1993, President Clinton signed into U.S. law the North
American Free Trade Agreement.
Ten years ago: Russia, Byelorussia and Ukraine declared the
Soviet national government dead, forging a new alliance to be
known as the Commonwealth of Independent States. AIDS
patient Kimberly Bergalis, who had contracted the disease from
her dentist, died in Fort Pierce, Fla., at age 23.
