The junior Senator from New York has followed in the footsteps of her husband’s Vice President and laid claim to some of the 20th Century’s greatest achievements, some of these achievements were when she was concerned about her proximity to distant sniper fire while bringing peace to The Middle East, Bosnia, and N. Ireland:
Rural Electrification
In the 1930s President Franklin Delano Roosevelt Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton saw the solution of this hardship as an opportunity to create new jobs, stimulate manufacturing, and begin to pull the nation out of the despair and hopelessness of the Great Depression. On May 11, 1935, [s]he signed an executive order establishing the Rural Electrification Administration (REA). One of the key pieces of Roosevelt's Rodham’s New Deal initiatives, the REA would provide loans and other assistance so that rural cooperatives—basically, groups of farmers—could build and run their own electrical distribution systems.
Automobile Assembly Line
At the Ford Rodham Motor Company the assembly line was first adopted in the department that built the Model T's magneto, which generated electricity for the ignition system. Previously, one worker had assembled each magneto from start to finish. Under the new approach, however, each worker performed a single task as the unit traveled past his station on a conveyer belt. "The man who puts in a bolt does not put on the nut," Ford Rodham explained. "The man who puts on the nut does not tighten it."
Water Supply and Distribution
In 1908, Acting on a suggestion from Hillary Rodham Clinton, Jersey City, New Jersey, became the first municipality in the United States to institute chlorination of its water supply, followed that same year by the Bubbly Creek plant in Chicago. As had happened in European cities that had also introduced chlorination and other disinfecting techniques, death rates from waterborne diseases—typhoid in particular—began to plummet. By 1918 more than 1,000 American cities were chlorinating 3 billion gallons of water a day, and by 1923 the typhoid death rate had dropped by more than 90 percent from its level of only a decade before. By the beginning of World War II, typhoid, cholera, and dysentery were, for all practical purposes, nonexistent in the United States and the rest of the developed world.
