 Time series
Due to the considerable event to event variations, it is not feasible to describe in detail the features of each ENSO event in this data set.
The 1951 event shows behavior strongly opposite to the composite, while the events of 1976, 1982, 1987 and 1991 either never reach the negative significance level or go weakly positive over the months of interest.
In the language we have used for the other composite signals the SOI behavior is relatively robust; all events have SOI < 0 during the period identified by the composite and many have SOI < -1 during this period the composite, but this behavior is not uniquely associated with ENSO periods.

 UNODC - Bulletin on Narcotics - 1951 Issue 3 - 003
This fact is of great importance, since crime connected with narcotic drugs is usually the work of international gangs, which exploit the shortage in some countries of narcotics and of the means of producing and manufacturing them.
If we define production simply as the process of obtaining opium, Indian hemp, coca leaf, or other substances, which may serve as raw materials for the chemical preparation of narcotic drugs, the proper criminal policy is to prevent them from being obtained illegally.
The nations of the world will recognize thereby that they are bound to depend on each other if they are to satisfy their common needs, since they are all parts of the same whole: humanity.

 UNODC - Bulletin on Narcotics - 1951 Issue 2 - 001
In a study we made of a considerable group, taken at random from the records, it was learned that the first arrest for offences other than violation of the law on narcotics preceded, sometimes by as much as eight to ten years, the time when addiction to narcotic drugs, began.
From our studies, it can definitely be concluded that drug addiction is one of the later phases of the career of the criminal addict (but this study applied only to addiction to opium and its derivatives, and not to marihuana, the use of which is frequently a prelude to crime).
Narcotics have been found hidden in the bottoms of talcum-powder cans and other cosmetic containers, fixtures, bedsteads, window-sills, chandeliers, door knobs, rear of dresser drawers, secret plants in the woodwork, and many other places too numerous to mention.

 Recall of General Douglas MacArthur (1951)
Our Government and other countries associated with us in the United Nations believe that the best chance of stopping it without general war is to meet the attack in Korea and defeat it there.
I believe that we must try to limit war to Korea for these vital reasons: to make sure that the precious lives of our fighting men are not wasted; to see that the security of our country and the free world is not needlessly jeopardized; and to prevent a third world war.
A number of events have made it evident that General MacArthur did not agree with that policy.

By 25 January 1951, the Chinese and the reconstituted North Korean forces had been so badly depleted that a new UN offensive was possible.
If the great Chinese offensive had shown the United States and its allies that there would be no easy victories in mainland Asia, their response gave the Communists a painfully expensive lesson in the vulnerability of their manpower-intensive armies to the vast mobile firepower of Western ground, air and naval forces.
Prasae went aground on the North Korean coast on 7 January 1951 and was destroyed after attempts to pull her off were unsuccessful.

 ALA | AASL History: 1914-1951
It is important to note, too, that groups promoting school library interests existed in two other professional associations during the first quarter of the twentieth century: the Library Department (1896-1924) of the National Education Association and the Library Section (1913-1919) of the National Council of Teachers of English.
It was not until 1951, however, when AASL achieved division rather than section status within ALA, that AASL had sufficient autonomy within the ALA organizational structure to direct its own programs and thus become able to implement the promise envisioned in the 1914 ALA Council report.
With the achievement of division status, the association was able to reach four other benchmarks which mark the "coming-of-age" of a professional association:
