# From Paul Eggert (1999-03-31):
|
|
43 |
# Howse writes (pp 121-125) that time zones were invented by
|
|
44 |
# Professor Charles Ferdinand Dowd (1825-1904),
|
|
45 |
# Principal of Temple Grove Ladies' Seminary (Saratoga Springs, NY).
|
|
46 |
# His pamphlet ``A System of National Time for Railroads'' (1870)
|
|
47 |
# was the result of his proposals at the Convention of Railroad Trunk Lines
|
|
48 |
# in New York City (1869-10). His 1870 proposal was based on Washington, DC,
|
|
49 |
# but in 1872-05 he moved the proposed origin to Greenwich.
|
|
50 |
# His proposal was adopted by the railroads on 1883-11-18 at 12:00,
|
|
51 |
# and the most of the country soon followed suit.
|
|
52 |
|
|
53 |
# From Paul Eggert (2005-04-16):
|
|
54 |
# That 1883 transition occurred at 12:00 new time, not at 12:00 old time.

# From Paul Eggert (2001-03-06):

65 |
# Daylight Saving Time was first suggested as a joke by Benjamin Franklin
|
|
66 |
# in his whimsical essay ``An Economical Project for Diminishing the Cost
|
|
67 |
# of Light'' published in the Journal de Paris (1784-04-26).
|
|
68 |
# Not everyone is happy with the results:
|
|
69 |
#
|
|
70 |
# I don't really care how time is reckoned so long as there is some
|
|
71 |
# agreement about it, but I object to being told that I am saving
|
|
72 |
# daylight when my reason tells me that I am doing nothing of the kind.
|
|
73 |
# I even object to the implication that I am wasting something
|
|
74 |
# valuable if I stay in bed after the sun has risen. As an admirer
|
|
75 |
# of moonlight I resent the bossy insistence of those who want to
|
|
76 |
# reduce my time for enjoying it. At the back of the Daylight Saving
|
|
77 |
# scheme I detect the bony, blue-fingered hand of Puritanism, eager
|
|
78 |
# to push people into bed earlier, and get them up earlier, to make
|
|
79 |
# them healthy, wealthy and wise in spite of themselves.

# Shanks says that DST was called "War Time" in the US in 1918 and 1919.
|
|
90 |
# However, DST was imposed by the Standard Time Act of 1918, which

91 |
# was the first nationwide legal time standard, and apparently

|
92 |
# time was just called "Standard Time" or "Daylight Saving Time".

# From Joseph Gallant citing
|
|
113 |
# George H. Douglas, _The Early Days of Radio Broadcasting_ (1987):
|
|
114 |
# At 7 P.M. (Eastern War Time) [on 1945-08-14], the networks were set
|
|
115 |
# to switch to London for Attlee's address, but the American people
|
|
116 |
# never got to hear his speech live. According to one press account,
|
|
117 |
# CBS' Bob Trout was first to announce the word of Japan's surrender,
|
|
118 |
# but a few seconds later, NBC, ABC and Mutual also flashed the word
|
|
119 |
# of surrender, all of whom interrupting the bells of Big Ben in
|
|
120 |
# London which were to precede Mr. Attlee's speech.
|
|
121 |
|
|
122 |
# From Paul Eggert (2003-02-09): It was Robert St John, not Bob Trout. From
|
|
123 |
# Myrna Oliver's obituary of St John on page B16 of today's Los Angeles Times:
|
|
124 |
#
|
|
125 |
# ... a war-weary U.S. clung to radios, awaiting word of Japan's surrender.
|
|
126 |
# Any announcement from Asia would reach St. John's New York newsroom on a
|
|
127 |
# wire service teletype machine, which had prescribed signals for major news.
|
|
128 |
# Associated Press, for example, would ring five bells before spewing out
|
|
129 |
# typed copy of an important story, and 10 bells for news "of transcendental
|
|
130 |
# importance."
|
|
131 |
#
|
|
132 |
# On Aug. 14, stalling while talking steadily into the NBC networks' open
|
|
133 |
# microphone, St. John heard five bells and waited only to hear a sixth bell,
|
|
134 |
# before announcing confidently: "Ladies and gentlemen, World War II is over.
|
|
135 |
# The Japanese have agreed to our surrender terms."

140 |
# Paul has been careful to use the "US" rules only in those locations

# Here's database-relevant material from the 2001 "Alaska History" article:
|
|
462 |
#
|
|
463 |
# On September 20 [1979]...DOT...officials decreed that on April 27,
|
|
464 |
# 1980, Juneau and other nearby communities would move to Yukon Time.
|
|
465 |
# Sitka, Petersburg, Wrangell, and Ketchikan, however, would remain on
|
|
466 |
# Pacific Time.
|
|
467 |
#
|
|
468 |
# ...on September 22, 1980, DOT Secretary Neil E. Goldschmidt rescinded the
|
|
469 |
# Department's September 1979 decision. Juneau and other communities in
|
|
470 |
# northern Southeast reverted to Pacific Time on October 26.
|
|
471 |
#
|
|
472 |
# On October 28 [1983]...the Metlakatla Indian Community Council voted
|
|
473 |
# unanimously to keep the reservation on Pacific Time.
|
|
474 |
#
|
|
475 |
# According to DOT official Joanne Petrie, Indian reservations are not
|
|
476 |
# bound to follow time zones imposed by neighboring jurisdictions.
|
|
477 |
#
|
|
478 |
# (The last is consistent with how the database now handles the Navajo
|
|
479 |
# Nation.)
|
|
480 |
|
|
481 |
# From Arthur David Olson (2011-02-09):
|
|
482 |
# I just spoke by phone with a staff member at the Metlakatla Indian
|

# Community office (using contact information available at

488 |
# the staffer said it was shortly after 10:00 there. When I asked whether
|
|
489 |
# that meant they were on Pacific time, they said no--they were on their

# own time. I asked about daylight saving; they said it wasn't used. I

# did not inquire about practices in the past.

#

935 |
# We don't know where the line used to be within Kearny County, KS,

# Shanks writes that Michigan started using standard time on 1885-09-18,

955 |
# but Howse writes (pp 124-125, referring to Popular Astronomy, 1901-01)
|
|
956 |
# that Detroit kept

957 |
#
|

958 |
# local time until 1900 when the City Council decreed that clocks should

959 |
# be put back twenty-eight minutes to Central Standard Time. Half the
|
|
960 |
# city obeyed, half refused. After considerable debate, the decision
|
|
961 |
# was rescinded and the city reverted to Sun time. A derisive offer to
|
|
962 |
# erect a sundial in front of the city hall was referred to the

963 |
# Committee on Sewers. Then, in 1905, Central time was adopted

# This story is too entertaining to be false, so go with Howse over Shanks.

1454 |

|
|
1625 |
# the old Manitoba Time Act - as amended by Bill 2, assented to
|
|
1626 |
# March 27, 1987 ... said ...
|
|
1627 |
# "between two o'clock Central Standard Time in the morning of
|
|
1628 |
# the first Sunday of April of each year and two o'clock Central
|
|
1629 |
# Standard Time in the morning of the last Sunday of October next
|
|
1630 |
# following, one hour in advance of Central Standard Time."...
|
|
1631 |
# I believe that the English legislation [of the old time act] had =
|
|
1632 |
# been assented to (March 22, 1967)....
|
|
1633 |
# Also, as far as I can tell, there was no order-in-council varying
|
|
1634 |
# the time of Daylight Saving Time for 2005 and so the provisions of
|
|
1635 |
# the 1987 version would apply - the changeover was at 2:00 Central
|
|
1636 |
# Standard Time (i.e. not until 3:00 Central Daylight Time).

|

# From Paul Eggert (2006-04-10):
|
|
1639 |
# Shanks & Pottenger say Manitoba switched at 02:00 (not 02:00s)
|
|
1640 |
# starting 1966. Since 02:00s is clearly correct for 1967 on, assume

1675 |
|
|
1676 |
# From Mark Brader (2003-07-26):
|
|
1677 |
# The first actual adoption of DST in Canada was at the municipal
|
|
1678 |
# level. As the [Toronto] Star put it (1912-06-07), "While people
|
|
1679 |
# elsewhere have long been talking of legislation to save daylight,
|
|
1680 |
# the city of Moose Jaw [Saskatchewan] has acted on its own hook."
|
|
1681 |
# DST in Moose Jaw began on Saturday, 1912-06-01 (no time mentioned:
|
|
1682 |
# presumably late evening, as below), and would run until "the end of
|
|
1683 |
# the summer". The discrepancy between municipal time and railroad
|
|
1684 |
# time was noted.
|
|
1685 |
|
|
1686 |
# From Paul Eggert (2003-07-27):
|
|
1687 |
# Willett (1914-03) notes that DST "has been in operation ... in the
|
|
1688 |
# City of Moose Jaw, Saskatchewan, for one year."
|
|
1689 |
|
|
1690 |
# From Paul Eggert (2006-03-22):
|
|
1691 |
# Shanks & Pottenger say that since 1970 this region has mostly been as Regina.
|
|
1692 |
# Some western towns (e.g. Swift Current) switched from MST/MDT to CST in 1972.
|
|
1693 |
# Other western towns (e.g. Lloydminster) are like Edmonton.
|
|
1694 |
# Matthews and Vincent (1998) write that Denare Beach and Creighton
|
|
1695 |
# are like Winnipeg, in violation of Saskatchewan law.
|
|
1696 |
|
|
1697 |
# From W. Jones (1992-11-06):
|
|
1698 |
# The. . .below is based on information I got from our law library, the
|
|
1699 |
# provincial archives, and the provincial Community Services department.
|
|
1700 |
# A precise history would require digging through newspaper archives, and
|
|
1701 |
# since you didn't say what you wanted, I didn't bother.
|
|
1702 |
#
|
|
1703 |
# Saskatchewan is split by a time zone meridian (105W) and over the years
|
|
1704 |
# the boundary became pretty ragged as communities near it reevaluated
|
|
1705 |
# their affiliations in one direction or the other. In 1965 a provincial
|
|
1706 |
# referendum favoured legislating common time practices.
|
|
1707 |
#
|
|
1708 |
# On 15 April 1966 the Time Act (c. T-14, Revised Statutes of
|
|
1709 |
# Saskatchewan 1978) was proclaimed, and established that the eastern
|
|
1710 |
# part of Saskatchewan would use CST year round, that districts in
|
|
1711 |
# northwest Saskatchewan would by default follow CST but could opt to
|
|
1712 |
# follow Mountain Time rules (thus 1 hour difference in the winter and
|
|
1713 |
# zero in the summer), and that districts in southwest Saskatchewan would
|
|
1714 |
# by default follow MT but could opt to follow CST.
|
|
1715 |
#
|
|
1716 |
# It took a few years for the dust to settle (I know one story of a town
|
|
1717 |
# on one time zone having its school in another, such that a mom had to
|
|
1718 |
# serve her family lunch in two shifts), but presently it seems that only
|
|
1719 |
# a few towns on the border with Alberta (e.g. Lloydminster) follow MT
|
|
1720 |
# rules any more; all other districts appear to have used CST year round
|
|
1721 |
# since sometime in the 1960s.
|
|
1722 |
|
|
1723 |
# From Chris Walton (2006-06-26):
|
|
1724 |
# The Saskatchewan time act which was last updated in 1996 is about 30 pages
|
|
1725 |
# long and rather painful to read.

# * Sonora will continue to observe standard time.

2132 |
# * Last week Mexico City's mayor Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador decreed that

2133 |
# the Federal District will not adopt DST.
|
|
2134 |
# * 4 of 16 district leaders announced they'll ignore the decree.

# * The decree does not affect federal-controlled facilities including

2136 |
# the airport, banks, hospitals, and schools.

# Mexico's Supreme Court on Tuesday declared that daylight savings was

2154 |
# unconstitutional in Mexico City, creating the possibility the

# From Paul Eggert (2006-03-22):
|
|
2402 |
# Formerly there was an America/Ensenada zone, which differed from
|
|
2403 |
# America/Tijuana only in that it did not observe DST from 1976
|
|
2404 |
# through 1995. This was as per Shanks (1999). But Shanks & Pottenger say
|
|
2405 |
# Ensenada did not observe DST from 1948 through 1975. Guy Harris reports
|
|
2406 |
# that the 1987 OAG says "Only Ensenada, Mexicale, San Felipe and
|
|
2407 |
# Tijuana observe DST," which agrees with Shanks & Pottenger but implies that
|
|
2408 |
# DST-observance was a town-by-town matter back then. This concerns
|
|
2409 |
# data after 1970 so most likely there should be at least one Zone
|
|
2410 |
# other than America/Tijuana for Baja, but it's not clear yet what its
|
|
2411 |
# name or contents should be.
