You do not have permission to edit this page, for the following reasons:

This IP address has been blocked from editing Wikipedia.
This does not affect your ability to read Wikipedia pages.
Most people who see this message have done nothing wrong. Some kinds of blocks restrict editing from specific service providers or telecom companies in response to recent abuse or vandalism, and can sometimes affect other users who are unrelated to that abuse. Review the information below for assistance if you do not believe that you have done anything wrong.

The IP address or range 3.93.0.0/16 has been blocked (disabled) by ‪ST47‬ for the following reason(s):

The IP address that you are currently using has been blocked because it is believed to be a web host provider. To prevent abuse, web hosts may be blocked from editing Wikipedia.
You will not be able to edit Wikipedia using a web host provider because it hides your IP address, much like a proxy or VPN.
We recommend that you attempt to use another connection to edit. For example, if you use a proxy or VPN to connect to the internet, turn it off when editing Wikipedia. If you edit using a mobile connection, try using a Wi-Fi connection, and vice versa. If you are using a corporate internet connection, switch to a different Wi-Fi network. If you have a Wikipedia account, please log in.
If you do not have any other way to edit Wikipedia, you will need to request an IP block exemption.

How to appeal if you are confident that your connection does not use a web host's IP address:
If you are confident that you are not using a web host, you may appeal this block by adding the following text on your talk page: ((unblock|reason=Caught by a web host block but this host or IP is not a web host. My IP address is _______. Place any further information here. ~~~~)). You must fill in the blank with your IP address for this block to be investigated. Your IP address can be determined here. Alternatively, if you wish to keep your IP address private you can use the unblock ticket request system. There are several reasons you might be editing using the IP address of a web host (such as if you are using VPN software or a business network); please use this method of appeal only if you think your IP address is in fact not a web host.

Administrators: The IP block exemption user right should only be applied to allow users to edit using web host in exceptional circumstances, and they should usually be directed to the functionaries team via email. If you intend to give the IPBE user right, a CheckUser needs to take a look at the account. This can be requested most easily at SPI Quick Checkuser Requests. Unblocking an IP or IP range with this template is highly discouraged without at least contacting the blocking administrator.

This block will expire on 20:44, 23 August 2024.

Even when blocked, you will usually still be able to edit your user talk page, as well as email administrators and other editors.

For information on how to proceed, please read the FAQ for blocked users and the guideline on block appeals. The guide to appealing blocks may also be helpful.

'''William Wallace Blackney''' (August 28, 1876 – March 14, 1963) was a [[politician]] from the [[U.S. state]] of [[Michigan]]. He served eight terms in the [[United States House of Representatives]].

==Early life and education==
Blackney was born in [[Clio, Michigan]], and attended the public schools there. He went to [[Olivet College]], [[Olivet, Michigan]], and Ferris School (now [[Ferris State University]]) in [[Big Rapids, Michigan|Big Rapids]]. He moved to [[Flint, Michigan|Flint]], in 1904 and served as [[county clerk]] of [[Genesee County, Michigan|Genesee County]] 1905–1912. He was graduated from the law department of the [[University of Michigan]] in 1912, was admitted to the [[bar (law)|bar]] the same year, and commenced practice in Flint.

He served as assistant [[prosecuting attorney]] of Genesee County 1913–1917, member of the Flint [[School Board]] 1924–1934, member of the Republican State central committee 1925–1930, and instructor in the [[General Motors Corporation|General Motors]] Company technical night school for sixteen years. He was a delegate to the [[1932 Republican National Convention]].

==Congress==
In 1934, Blackney defeated incumbent [[Claude E. Cady]] to be elected as a [[U.S. Republican Party|Republican]] from [[Michigan's 6th congressional district]] to the [[United States House of Representatives|U.S. House]] for the [[74th United States Congress|74th Congress]], serving from January 3, 1935, to January 3, 1937. He lost to [[U.S. Democratic Party|Democrat]] [[Andrew J. Transue]] in 1936, but defeated him to be re-elected in 1938 to the [[76th United States Congress|76th Congress]]. He was subsequently re-elected to the six succeeding Congresses, serving from January 3, 1939, to January 3, 1953.

A report created for President [[Harry S. Truman]] in September 1948 claimed that Blackney had a "[[reactionary]] record in Congress".<ref>((Cite web |url=https://www.trumanlibrary.org/whistlestop/study_collections/1948campaign/large/docs/documents/pdfs/10-3.pdf |title=Archived copy |access-date=2018-11-18 |archive-date=2015-08-29 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150829212035/http://www.trumanlibrary.org/whistlestop/study_collections/1948campaign/large/docs/documents/pdfs/10-3.pdf |url-status=dead ))</ref>

He was not a candidate for re-election in 1952 and retired to Flint, where he resided until his death, aged 86. He is interred in Woodlawn Cemetery in his birthplace of Clio, Michigan.
