Hi • 1. Study Guide to page 54. We need to finish the chart with the 6 new weapons and their importance. • 2. On your Need to Know List, you can and should put Espionage Act and Sedition Act on the same notecard or same line on your notebook paper; treat them together as one term. • “One” • Metallica
Learning Goal 10 • I will be able to: • Explain why Russia left the war and its impact • Explain the armistice and how it came about
2.10 Russia Armistice Armistice vs. Treaty • Left the war in 1917 b/c of Communist Revolution • America had to pick up the slack • No more eastern front, German troops moved to western front • By November 1918, Allies breaking through German lines and pushing back, led by American Expeditionary Force (AEF), nicknamed “Dougboys” • Agreement to stop fighting, signed 11/11/18 11am • German people tired of war, food scarce, mass starvation • Treaty = formal end, determined who gets what, who loses what, etc. signed in June 1919 • Big question…what to do with Germany? • 1914-1917, stalemate, 2 fronts, no US • 1917-1918, US in, 1 front b/c no Russia, US picks up slack
Using what you know about the four “MAIN” causes of WWI, what would you suggest in the peace treaty to ensure another “spark” doesn’t start a war like this? Example: Austria Hungary not allowed to have an army for 10 years because they started WWI by declaring war and wouldn’t have without an army.

Mr. Lamm’s Family Journey From Austria to the United States
Be looking for… • (IN MY POWERPOINT I HAVE BOLDED, ITALICIZED, AND UNDERLINED INFORMATION FROM CLASS THAT COULD/SHOULD BE INCLUDED IN THIS TYPE OF PRESENTATION) • Each slide has at least one picture!
Who Came? • All 4 Great Grandparents on my father’s side • Alois, Martin, Mary, Anna supposed to come on the same boat, but only three made the trip • Great Grandmother Anna (with whom I spoke for this) came by herself 2 weeks later • At age 6… by herself • In this box, a family portrait including the member(s) of your family would be appropriate. • If you do not have pictures of family members (came in the 1600s or something) a picture of the country, map, etc. would work.
What Reasons? • Needed $ to save family owned farm & winery • WWI devastated country • Jobs in US, sent money “home” • USA for 5-10 years, back to Austria • One great grandfather was a skilled worker; a baker • Pittsburgh b/c of family connections to work as a baker • Other men in the family joined union & worked dangerous jobs in mills. • No workplace tragedies • (NOTICE THAT I DID NOT JUST WRITE “FOR A BETTER LIFE.”)
From Where to Where? • Eberau Graz, Austria To Italy to steerage of boat • Through Boston, not Ellis Island • To the mills and mines of Pittsburgh, settled in ethnic neighborhood of Millvale, PA (where my grandmother still lives) • Spoke German while learning English & American customs • Did NOT work for Carnegie • Lived with family, avoided tenements • Enjoyed traditional Austrian and German living in the ethnic neighborhood. • Union ok with it b/c so many immigrants worked there
When? • 1919 after WWI, New Immigrants • Much of the family returned in 1928 and 1929, right before the stock market crash. • My great grandmother and her brother both fell in love with people in the neighborhood, ran away in middle of the night the night before they were to board the train, which is why we’re still here. • Stayed with other family
