Abstract:
The Sixty-fifth Congress was called to order on April 2, 1917, and adjourned on March 4, 1919. During those two years the United States played a pivotal role in winning World War I, experienced the difficulties of a wartime economy, and faced a multitude of domestic and international problems. During these two years the state's congressional delegation wielded pronounced influence in national affairs, and a North Carolina editor, Josephus Daniels, served with distinction in the Wilson Cabinet as Secretary of the Navy. Grant provides a brief sketch of each of these individuals.
