  Gruen Watch Company history: 1940-1958: WWII, Pan American, Gruen 21
Gruen was classified as an essential industry, and Time Hill employees went on a 48-hour workweek during at least part of the War.
Gruen President Benjamin Katz was called to become a member of the War Planning Board, and spent much of his time in Washington D.C. The Board was made up of top business executives, and was formed to help the government manage and coordinate wartime production among the thousands of companies and factories involved.
Gruen published several articles in their dealer newsletters praising the advantages of dials indicating "the 24 hours of the air-world day," and advising retailers to stock up on Pan Americans to meet the anticipated demand.

The models gruen of the precision were guaranteed to solve standard of the exactitude of the railroad, were not no advantage so there to take to a fornido clock 18-size in their pocket of the vest all the day.
Gruen was one of very few companies to take seriously to clocks this early, seeing its potential in spite of disappointing early sales to the masculine clients.
I believe that this is partly because history gruen was rewritten by the company for the commercialization and the intentions of the band, and partly because genuine early history was forgotten.

 Goodell v. Humboldt County
Ensuring that livestock operations within a county are conducted in such a manner as to avoid contamination of the environment and interference with others' enjoyment and use of their property is a matter of local concern and, therefore, is a "local affair" within the meaning of the home rule amendment.
Gruen, 457 N.W.2d 340 (Iowa 1990), we held a city ordinance regulating the parking and storage of lawfully unregistered vehicles was not inconsistent with state law.
Gruen's argument boils down to one proposition: because the general assembly has provided that he may lawfully possess unregistered vehicles under certain conditions, the city may not in any manner regulate where or how he parks those vehicles.

 Case Western Reserve University
Gruen emphasizes that Roman policies toward Jews in Asia Minor were motivated by Rome's broader imperial concerns, not favoritism of or hostility toward Jews.
One might not be persuaded by all the details of Gruen's effort to grapple with the difficult problem of the origins and nature of the synagogue (especially his affirmation that it was an institution sui generis; pp.
Gruen's conclusion that there was no standardized pattern in the synagogue's operation and function in the pre-70 period is probably the most convincing explanation of this evidence.

 "The Other Refugees: Jews of the Arab World" by George E. Gruen
For others, such as the Yemeni Jews who were flown to Israel in "Operation Magic Carpet," the return to Zion on "the wings of eagles" appeared as the marvelous fulfillment of biblical prophecy and an age-old Jewish longing.
Operations "Ezra and Nehemiah" in Iraq and "Magic Carpet" in Yemen airlifted many tens of thousands of Jews to their new homes.
Resolution 237, of 14 June 1967, concerns itself with the safety, welfare, and security of the inhabitants of the areas where military operations had taken place in the 1967 Arab-Israeli war and also with the protection of minorities in the states involved in the conflict.

 62 Wn.2d 645, THE STATE OF WASHINGTON, on the Relation of Washington State Finance Committee, Petitioner, v. TOM ...
That Gruen marked a departure in our views on the meaning of Article 8 of the Constitution of the State of Washington, which limits the state debt to $400,000, is apparent from the vigorous dissenting opinions it incited.
Between Gruen, in 1949, and the adjournment of the Extraordinary Session of the 1963 Legislature, nearly two-thirds of a billion dollars in bonds were authorized by successive sessions of the legislature, of which more than one-half billion were actually issued.
I agree further that the overruling of the Gruen case, and its theory of what constitutes a debt, cannot be permitted to operate retroactively, and that bonds heretofore issued and sold in reliance upon that decision are valid and must be paid.

For the success of this operation, cooperation with the Sudeten German frontier population, with deserters from the Czechoslovakian army, with parachutists or airborne troops and with units of the sabotage service will be of importance.
In the course of operations, it is of value to contribute to the reinforcement of the total war-economic strength by rapidly reconnoitering and restarting important factories.

The instrument and its operation are designed to reliably suppress noise and allow detection of as few as one impact event per month, the impact charge of which is close to the detection threshold.
The aim of instrument operations is the supression of noise to the extent that data from most events is completely received on ground.
However, additional dead-time is caused when the sounder is operated during gaps in the data transmission since noisy data swamp all internal data storage capacity of the dust instrument.
