The following events occurred in July 1914: ==July 1, 1914 (Wednesday)== * July Crisis – Austria-Hungary received confirmation from Germany that they could expect full support from their ally should they choose to wage war against Serbia in response to Serbian nationalists assassinating Archduke Franz Ferdinand of Austria. With some diplomatic reports alleging Dragutin Dimitrijević, Chief of Serbian Military Intelligence, and others in the Serbian government being involved in the assassination plot, Russian Ambassador Nicholas Hartwig met with officials in Belgrade to advise on the best maneuvers for Serbia to take during the crisis.〔Albertini, 1953, pp. 67, 271〕 * The Naval Wing of the British Royal Flying Corps was separated from the Royal Air Force and established as a separate service, the Royal Naval Air Service, under the control of the Royal Navy.〔Thetford, Owen, ''British Naval Aircraft Since 1912'', Sixth Edition, Annapolis, Maryland: Naval Institute Press, 1991, ISBN 1-55750-076-2, p. 10.〕 * The United States Navy established its first air department, the Bureau of Aeronautics. * Survivors of the ''Karluk'' shipwreck raised the Canadian flag on Wrangel Island in the Bering Sea in honour of Dominion Day. There were now 14 survivors of the original 25 people that survived the sinking in January. Fortunately, ''Karluk'' captain Robert Bartlett had reached Alaska and was now arranging rescue ships. * While re-shooting scenes for the western ''Across the Border'' in Colorado, actress Grace McHugh fell into the Arkansas River while being filmed crossing the water on horseback. Owen Carter, the production's cinematographer, dived in to save McHugh, but both drowned. Their deaths resulted in a push to develop professional stunt actors to handle dangerous action sequences in movie production.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://fultonhistory.com/Newspaper%2015/Billboard/Billboard%201914/Billboard%201914%20-%202196.pdf )〕 * Born: Stephen Juba, Canadian politician, 37th Mayor of Winnipeg, first Ukrainian Canadian to hold political high office, in Winnipeg (d. 1993); Sara Seegar, American actress, best known for the role of "Mrs Wilson" in the 1960s TV series ''Dennis the Menace'', in Greentown, Indiana (d. 1990); Christl Cranz, German alpine skier, gold medal winner at the 1936 Winter Olympics, in Brussels (d. 2004) * Born: Mahmood Khan Durrani, Indian-Pakistani soldier during World War Two, recipient of the George Cross, in Multan, British India (d. 1995); Rudolf Pflanz, German ''Luftwaffe'' fighter ace and recipient of the Knight's Cross of the Iron Cross during World War Two, in Ichenheim, Germany (d. 1942, killed in combat); Orli Wald, French-German resistance fighter, member of the German Resistance during World War Two, known as the "Angel of Auschwitz" which she escaped in 1945, in Bourell, France (d. 1962) * Died: Edmund Payne, British actor, major comedic lead in many of the 1800s Edwardian musical comedies (b. 1865) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「July 1914」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
