  • 48 Kansas History “You Have to Like PEOPLE”
    Kansas History: A Journal of the Central Plains 30 (Spring 2008): 48–67 48 Kansas History “you have TO LIKE PEOPLE” A Conversation with Former Governor William H. Avery edited by Bob Beatty William Henry Avery, born on a farm near Wakefield, Kansas, on August 11, 1911, served as the state’s thirty- seventh chief executive, from January 11, 1965, to January 9, 1967. Although his gubernatorial service was short, Avery’s outgoing personality and ability to win elections made him a central figure in Kansas Republican Party politics throughout the 1950s and 1960s. Avery first ran for the Kansas House of Representatives in 1950, but his political career really began years earlier when he was a leader of local opposition to the U.S. Corps of Engineers’s damming of the Republican River in their attempt to stop the disastrous flooding that had plagued eastern Kansas for years. Avery’s stake in the opposition was personal—the proposed dam would destroy the farmhouse his father, Herman W. Avery, built and in which he had grown up. He was never able to halt construction of the dam, but his fervent efforts not only led to his election to two terms in the state legislature (1951–1955), but also propelled him into the U.S. Congress, where he served from 1955 until 1965. Unable to stop the Tuttle Creek Dam and Milford Reservoir and finally frustrated with being a Republican in the Democratic-dominated U.S. House of Representatives of the early 1960s, Avery gave up his seat to come back to Kansas and run for governor in 1964.

    BRANDMEYER CENTER FOR APPLIED ECONOMICS Supporting Regional Economic Development through Analysis and Education A Fiscal History of Kansas: The ‘Brownback Experiment’ in Historical Context Technical Report 18-0126 January 2018 Arthur P. Hall, Ph.D. Executive Director Brandmeyer Center for Applied Economics University of Kansas School of Business About the Brandmeyer Center for Applied Economics The KU School of Business established the Center for Applied Economics in February of 2004— renamed the Brandmeyer Center in 2016 to honor a generous gift presented to the School by Joe and Jeanne Brandmeyer. The mission of the Brandmeyer Center for Applied Economics is to help advance the economic development of the state and region by offering economic analysis and economic education relevant for policymakers, community leaders, and other interested citizens. The stakeholders in the Brandmeyer Center want to increase the amount of credible economic analysis available to decision makers in both the state and region. When policymakers, community leaders, and citizens discuss issues that may have an impact on the economic development potential of the state or region, they can benefit from a wide array of perspectives. The Brandmeyer Center focuses on the contributions that markets and economic institutions can make to economic development. Because credibility is, in part, a function of economic literacy, the Brandmeyer Center also promotes economics education. About the Author Arthur P. Hall is the founding Executive Director of the Brandmeyer Center for Applied Economics at the University of Kansas School of Business. Before joining the KU School of Business, Hall was Chief Economist in the Public Affairs group of Wichita, Kansas-based Koch Industries, Inc.

    Kansas History: A Journal of the Central Plains 30 (Winter 2007/2008): 252–269 252 Kansas History “FOR THE BENEFIT OF THE PEOPLE” A Conversation with Former Governor John Anderson, Jr. edited by Bob Beatty John Anderson, Jr., a native-born Kansas Republican, served as the state’s thirty-sixth chief executive from January 9, 1961, to January 11, 1965. However, his experience in Kansas public life goes much deeper than his two terms as governor. Anderson served as Johnson County attorney from 1947 to 1953 and was elected to the Kansas Senate in 1952. In the legislature, Anderson was part of a reform-minded group called “The Young Turks,” who backed the maverick Republican, Governor Fred Hall, and opposed the so-called “Right to Work” law. In 1956 Gov- ernor Hall appointed Anderson attorney general for the state of Kansas to fill the unexpired term of Harold Fatzer, and Anderson won election to that office in 1956 and 1958. In 1960 Anderson defeated the two-term Democratic incumbent George Docking for the governor’s chair, with 55 to 44 percent of the popular vote, and won reelection in 1962, defeating his general election challenger Dale Saffels, 53 to 46 percent.1 Bob Beatty is an associate professor of political science at Washburn University and holds a PhD from Arizona State University. His interests, research, and projects in Kansas focus on history and politics. His co-authored article, “Covert Discrimination: Topeka—Before and After Brown,” appeared in the autumn 2004 issue of Kansas History: A Journal of the Central Plains and his production of the documentary, The Kansas Governor, appeared on public television in Kansas and Missouri in 2005.
