		The 1929 Convention recognized, for the first time, that women may also become prisoners of war and sought to ensure that "women shall be treated with all the regard due their sex." It also adopted the Lieber Code's principle that all prisoners of war should be treated equally.
		The 1929 Convention added the protection from interrogation by the detaining country, to wit, "no coercion may be used on prisoners to secure information as to the condition of their army or country.
		The 1929 Convention also articulated the conditions under which prisoner-of-war camps were to be run, including the sanitary conditions, and the organization of the camps including the election of prisoner representatives.

	Chapter 163 - Article 8
		A challenge entered on the day of a primary or election shall be heard and decided by the chief judge and judges of election of the precinct in which the challenged registrant is registered before the polls are closed on the day the challenge is made.

	Monaco Grand Prix - WOI Encyclopedia Italia
		Run annually since 1929, it is widely considered to be one of the most important and prestigious automobile races around the world alongside the Indianapolis 500-Mile Race and 24 Hours of Le Mans.
		The Monaco Grand Prix predates the organized World Championships; the Principality's first Grand Prix race was organized in 1929 by Antony Noghes, under the auspices of Prince Louis II through the "Automobile Club de Monaco" (A.C.M.) of which Alexandre Noghes was the founding president.
		The Grand Prix was the result of a challenge for the Automobile Club which could be recognized internationally only if it could stage a race on the very limited territory of the Principality.

	R.N. Elliott's Fundamental Challenge To Mechanistic Social Models
		In his case, it was the stock market crash of 1929 and the subsequent Great Depression that led him to reflect upon the importance of social mood, i.e., the predominant emotional orientation of society at a particular time, for an understanding of human social organization and change.
		The first challenge to mechanism came when Young proposed the wave theory of light, which, by the middle of the nineteenth century, was widely accepted.
		Perhaps Elliott's biggest challenge to modern economics, though, is that the one-dimensional conception of human beings that underlies traditional economic theory is flawed because it ignores the emotional and impulsive side of human existence.

		It should be emphasized that, while the review of the 1929 Crash and the Depression identifies policy errors, both of commission and omission, avoidance of such errors does not assure satisfactory economic performance in the year ahead.
		Between October 1929 and February 1930, the discount rate was reduced from 6 to 4 percent.
		Quantitatively, the decline in share values, large and persistent as it was during the Depression, does not seem sufficient to generate a downturn in the economy of the scope of 1929-1933, even given the psychological trauma of the stock market Crash.

	Palestine Riots and Massacres of 1929
		In the summer of 1929 the Arabs of Palestine initiated rioting and massacres against the Jewish population in several towns.
		The racist riots of 1929, like those of 1920 and 1921, were distinguished from those that took place under the Ottoman Turks by two features.
		The massacres of 1929 had thus launched two themes that were to recur in the history of Israel and Palestine: agitation related to the al-Aqsa mosques and the Jewish desire for separation from the Arabs of Palestine, for self-protection.

	Sir Frederick Hopkins - Nobel Lecture
		Such a statement, already half a century old, when allowed to stand out clear and apart from a context which tended to bury it, seems to contain the essentials of what is believed today.
		Here was a strong enough challenge to investigate, yet we have again, I think, no knowledge of any attempt in Bunge's laboratory to follow up the challenge.
		Perhaps an explanation of this is to be found in the circumstances that Bunge, though in his well-known book he remarks that it would be worth-while to continue the experiments which had suggested the existence of unknown nutritional factors, was, as I happen to know, himself inclined to disbelieve in them.

		IT IS not surprising that the report of 13-year-old Renuka, a seventh standard student in Andhra Pradesh's Medak district, escaping a marriage foisted on her by parents from both families made headlines.
		The 1929 Act comprising a bare 11 sections, though a major social reform law, has always had an ambivalent attitude on whether to enforce what is rational or to compromise with the reality.
		However, it is a lesson from all social legislation that what matters most in curbing crime is the speed and certainty of punishment rather than the term and rigour of the sentence.

		Years later, in a pamphlet published in 1929 that gained some notoriety, he compared his father to Abraham Lincoln and not surprisingly concluded that Tyler was the superior man both as leader and moral example.
		In the midst of the abolitionist challenge, Tucker, a law professor at the College of William and Mary, anonymously published a novel, The Partisan Leader, that forecast disunion and the creation of a separate southern confederacy.
		Tyler's response to the abolitionist challenge was one that he had outlined when a young congressman during the Missouri crisis.

		In the military field and in the diplomatic sphere the challenge of Soviet power and effectiveness has long been recognized by leading circles in the capitals of the West.
		But a challenge on the economic front was, until recently, considered unthinkable.
		And while the most striking expansion has occurred in Soviet production of electric power – a 34-fold increase since 1929 – the US per capita output is still about four and one-half times as large.

		A key mover of the rebellion of Agua Prieta which overthrew Carranza, Calles served as secretary of war in the De la Barra interim government and as secretary of the interior during the presidency of Obregón (1920-1924).
		Calles began a decade of dominance of Mexican political life--4 years as president and 6 years as the "power behind the throne." His policy was foreshadowed by his record in Sonora.
		A major military challenge in 1929 was suppressed, the official party was established as a means of ensuring peaceful transfers of power, and the Federal Labor Code was promulgated.

	Challenge and victory
		But for Americans old enough to remember the Great Depression, Roosevelt was also a soothing presence in his radio addresses when he spoke directly to the nation and touched its collective heart at a time when there was great hardship and little hope.
		The statistics from the Depression are numbing: 5,000 bank failures between 1929 and 1933; 600,000 homeowner foreclosures in 1930-32; the 1933 gross national product was half that of the 1929 GNP; only one-third as many cars were built in 1933 as in 1929.
		The great distance between 1929 and 1945 isn't measured just in years but in a new country that was formed by the Depression and Roosevelt and then marched off to beat the Japanese and Germans.

	Gold's Challenge
		That is particularly true when the gold standard is not sound in the first place, which many argue it wasn't.
		At any rate, when the dollar was backed by gold prior to 1933, the fiat monetary boom (1914-1929) engendered by the Federal Reserve System resulted in a bust sequence that in turn resulted in a series of bank panics a few years after the stock market crash of 1929.
		This is its main weapon, and it stands in between the existence of the Federal Reserve System and the investor's decision to hoard what he or she thinks is money, in what may ultimately amount to a political objection of central banking.

	Rich, Poor See Poverty Very Differently - Socio Times
		In all likelihood, the rise in share of total wealth held by the richest 1% of the U.S. households peaked in 1999 when the Dow Industrials were above 11,000.
		We expected the figure to approach its all-time peak of 44% peak at the end of Supercycle (III) in 1929.
		The figure for 1999 is not yet known, but, with most of the growth in wealth now coming directly from the stock market and the market’s thinning since the spring of 1998, 1999 will challenge 1929’s all-time record of 44.2%.

		We are reminded that it was early in 1929- during the great Depression – that the founders focused on the struggles of the time and created an organization which would stimulate, inspire, foster, and give assistance to those persons engaged in business professions.
		We are also thankful for their wisdom which challenged us to include youth as a means of ensuring the future.
