    ') 1""~" TAPE #003 Page 1 of 10 f;1; _ ! G. DUPRE LITTON Tape 1 Mr. Litton graduated from the LSU Law School in 1942, having been president of Phi Delta phi Legal Fraternity, associate editor of Law Review, and the first LSU student named to the Order of the Coif. During a period of thirty-four years, Mr. Litton served in numerous important governmental capacities, including executive counsel to the governor, chairman of the ~ state board of tax appeals, first assistant attorney general, and legal advisor to the legislature. Q. Mr. Litton, your career in state government has closely involved you with the administrations of this state through several governors, dating back to the time of Huey Long. Would youqive us your recollections of the high points in these administrations? A. Thank you, Mrs. Pierce. My recollection of the governors of Louisiana dates back even prior to 1930, which was some 50 years ago. However, in 1930, I entered LSU, and at that time, Huey P. Long was governor. He had been elected in 1928. I recall that on a number of occasions, I played golf at the Westdale Country Club, which is now called Webb Memorial Country Club, I believe, and I saw Huey Long playing golf, accompanied, generally by some twelve to fifteen bodyguards who were on both sides of him, as he putted or drove. Enough has been written about Huey Long that it would probably be superfluous for us here at this time to go into any details concerning him. However, history will undoubtedly recall that Huey Long was one of the most powerful and one of the most brilliant governors in Louisiana history.

His heels clicked as he crossed the marble foyer and entered the bronze-paneled elevator that took him to his office. In spite of recent setbacks, Woodcock was at the top of his game and eager to complete the morning’s business, which would reach into the heart of Louisiana, half a continent away. At 10:30 a.m., Jan. 2, 1935, Woodcock and five colleagues, all East Coast businessmen, went to work on the bylaws and articles of incorporation for a new company that would acquire Woodcock’s former company, now bankrupt. To that end, they approved the opening of bank accounts in New York, Philadelphia, and a handful of small central Louisiana cities and towns.

  • Media Technology and Society
    MEDIA TECHNOLOGY AND SOCIETY Media Technology and Society offers a comprehensive account of the history of communications technologies, from the telegraph to the Internet. Winston argues that the development of new media, from the telephone to computers, satellite, camcorders and CD-ROM, is the product of a constant play-off between social necessity and suppression: the unwritten ‘law’ by which new technologies are introduced into society. Winston’s fascinating account challenges the concept of a ‘revolution’ in communications technology by highlighting the long histories of such developments. The fax was introduced in 1847. The idea of television was patented in 1884. Digitalisation was demonstrated in 1938. Even the concept of the ‘web’ dates back to 1945. Winston examines why some prototypes are abandoned, and why many ‘inventions’ are created simultaneously by innovators unaware of each other’s existence, and shows how new industries develop around these inventions, providing media products for a mass audience. Challenging the popular myth of a present-day ‘Information Revolution’, Media Technology and Society is essential reading for anyone interested in the social impact of technological change. Brian Winston is Head of the School of Communication, Design and Media at the University of Westminster. He has been Dean of the College of Communications at the Pennsylvania State University, Chair of Cinema Studies at New York University and Founding Research Director of the Glasgow University Media Group. His books include Claiming the Real (1995). As a television professional, he has worked on World in Action and has an Emmy for documentary script-writing.

They record the social, political and economic lives of rich and poor, female and male, slave and free, African, Native, European and American colonials. Although the majority of the cases deal with attempts by creditors to recover unpaid debts, the colonial collection includes many successions. These documents often contain a wealth of biographical information concerning Louisiana’s colonial inhabitants. Estate inventories, records of commercial transactions, correspondence and copies of wills, marriage contracts and baptismal, marriage and burial records may be included in a succession document. The colonial document collection includes petitions by slaves requesting manumission, applications by merchants for licenses to conduct business, requests by ship captains for absolution from responsibility for cargo lost at sea, and requests by traders for permission to conduct business in Europe, the West Indies and British colonies in North America **************************************************************************** RECORD GROUP 2 SPANISH JUDICIAL RECORDS Acc. # 1849.1; 1867; 7243 Acc. # 1849.2 = playing cards, 17790402202 Acc. # 1849.3 = 1799060301 1769-1803 190.5 ln. ft (381 boxes); 2 oversize boxes Like the judicial records from the French period, but with more details given, the Spanish records show the life of all of the colony.

  • A House Divided
    A HOUSE DIVIDED A Teaching Guide on the History of Civil Rights in Louisiana by Plater Robinson SECOND EDITION Southern Institute New Orleans, LA for Education and Research Tulane University © 1995 by the Southern Institute for Education and Research All Rights Reserved, Printed in the United States of America INTRODUCTION “A house divided against itself cannot stand.” -- Abraham Lincoln In an effort meriting the applause of grateful citizens, Xavier University produced the documentary A House Divided to record the history of the Civil Rights movement (1950-1965) in New Orleans. This study guide, prepared by the Southern Institute for Education and Research, is for teachers who intend to use A House Divided as an instructional resource in the classroom. This period in our history is little known by subsequent generations, black or white, despite the fact that participants in that epoch often live nearby. Students of today have little or no inkling of racial segregation as it was practiced and enforced in this city only thirty years ago. This is an unpardonable lapse in memory and responsibility. The Civil Rights period represents the great divide in our city, the divide between the past in which segregation was the law and degradation the rule, and the future in which hope is too often obscured by race, poverty, crime, and fear. It is impossible to understand present-day New Orleans without an understanding of the events which occurred so recently in the city and with such dramatic results. The documentary A House Divided focuses on the years in New Orleans between 1950 and 1965.
