Tennessee State Library and Archives KNOX, JACK, PAPERS 1932-1978 State of Tennessee Department of State Tennessee State Library and Archives 403 Seventh Avenue North Nashville, Tennessee 37243-0312 KNOX, JACK, PAPERS 1932-1978 (THS COLLECTION) Processed by: Ted Guillaum Archival Technical Services THS Accession Number: 640 Date Completed: 9-18-2002 Microfilm Accession Number: 1684 Updated by: Kimberly Mills Wires December 18, 2019 Box 1, Folder 22a (Not Microfilmed) MICROFILMED INTRODUCTION The Jack Knox Papers, 1932-1978, consists of 544 original cartoon drawings, photocopies of his correspondence and papers that include some photographs. The original cartoons are found in 12 oversize boxes and are arranged in alphabetical order by cartoon title. The papers are contained in two Hollinger boxes and one oversize box. This collection was donated to the Tennessee Historical Society by Mrs. Jack (Edith) Knox in 1981. Additional correspondence can be found on microfilm in the Jack Knox Correspondence, 1938- 1980, collection, Microfilm Accession Number 1081. Additional cartoons, scrapbooks, and correspondence can be found on microfilm in the THS Jack Knox Collection, Accession Number 676. Single photocopies of unpublished writings of the Jack Knox Papers may be made for purposes of scholarly research. 1 SCOPE AND CONTENT The Jack Knox Papers, 1932-1978, represent the work of a noted conservative political cartoonist who drew for the Nashville Banner newspaper. Mr. Knox retired in 1975 after 29 years with the Nashville Banner. His first big break as a cartoonist came with the Democratic National Committee during Franklin D. Roosevelt's first campaign. He drew the cartoons for a booklet entitled "Everybody's Political Primer". He became the Staff cartoonist for the Evening Tennessean in 1933. A year later he moved to The (Memphis) Commercial Appeal where he worked for 11 years. He joined the Banner in 1946. He had a showing of his drawings at the Parthenon in Nashville, a one man show at the Brooks Gallery in Memphis, and was invited to show at the Smithsonian Institute in Washington, D.C. He married his wife Edith, in 1946 and raised four children, John, Phoebe, Joseph, and Britt. He died on February 23, 1985 at the age of 75. The original cartoon drawings in this collection have been arranged in alphabetical order by the title of the cartoon. A table format was used in the Container List in order give a better description to facilitate searching by topics. The cartoons are broken down into 13 broad categories: Aeronautics, Charity, Defense & Foreign Affairs, Economy, Education, Holidays, Industry, Labor & Employment, Politics & Government, Recreation, Safety, and Seasons. Column three of the table includes descriptive key words that further describe each cartoon. This was done in order to use the "Find" feature for searching words in the MicroSoft Word computer program. Mr. Knox wrote two books. Riverman which was published in 1971, depicts the living and working conditions on the Upper Cumberland River in the early 20th Century. Box 13, folders 15-17 contains materials related to this successful book. His second book was America's Tennessee Walking Horse, published in 1973. A copy of this small book, that was also illustrated by Mr. Knox, can be found in Box 13, folder 9. Mr. Knox contends in his correspondence that his grandfather, Mr. Edward Warren Clark, was responsible for the salvation and restoration of the Civil War locomotive, "General". The Civil War event on April 12, 1862, was known as "The Great Locomotive Chase" and involved another famous locomotive, "Texas." James J. Andrews and a band of 19 Union raiders managed to steal the General for the purpose of destroying the railroad supply line between Atlanta and Chattanooga. Mr. Clark spotted the General waiting in line for the scrap yard in 1890. It was restored and displayed for the first time at the World's Colombian Exposition in Chicago of 1893. A considerable amount of information on this subject can be found in Box 13, folder 3. The photographs in this collection have been relocated to Box 14. Some of these are photographic copies of his cartoons. The greatest importance of this collection is attributed to the original cartoon drawings of this noted cartoonist. The correspondence in this collection includes a personal response letter from Dwight D. Eisenhower describing his feelings on how the war in Vietnam is progressing in 1968. This letter is probably the most important piece of correspondence in the collection. There are four personal letters from Lyndon B. Johnson that depict their close personal friendship. Additionally, there is correspondence from Vice-President Richard Nixon requesting one of his cartoons. The biggest weakness is that the cartoons are not dated. A second weakness is the correspondence and other papers are photocopies rather than originals. 2 MICROFILM LIST KNOX, JACK PAPERS, 1932-1978 THS COLLECTION AC. NO. 1684 ROLL NUMBER: 1.

  • Baker V. Carr in Context: 1946-1964
    BAKER V. CARR IN CONTEXT: 1946-1964 Stephen Ansolabehere and Samuel Issacharoff1 Introduction Occasionally in all walks of life, law included, there are breakthroughs that have the quality of truth revealed. Not only do such ideas have overwhelming force, but they alter the world in which they operate. In the wake of such breakthroughs, it is difficult to imagine what existed before. Such is the American conception of constitutional democracy before and after the “Reapportionment Revolution” of the 1960s. Although legislative redistricting today is not without its riddle of problems, it is difficult to imagine so bizarre an apportionment scheme as the way legislative power was rationed out in Tennessee, the setting for Baker v. Carr. Tennessee apportioned power through, in Justice Clark’s words, “a crazy quilt without rational basis.”2 Indeed, forty years after Baker, with “one person, one vote” a fundamental principle of our democracy, it may be hard to imagine what all the constitutional fuss was about. Yet the decision in Baker, which had striking immediate impact, marked a profound transformation in American democracy. The man who presided over this transformation, Chief Justice Earl Warren, called Baker “the most important case of [his] tenure on the Court.”3 Perhaps the simplest way to understand the problem is to imagine the role of the legislator faced with the command to reapportion legislative districts after each decennial Census. Shifts in population mean that new areas of a state are likely to emerge as the dominant forces of a legislature. But what if the power to stem the tide were as simple as refusing to reapportion? It happened at the national level when Congress, realizing that the swelling tide of immigrant and industrial workers had moved power to the Northeast and the Midwest, simply refused to reapportion after the 1920 Census.

  • LOOKING BACK in HISTORY Happenings in the Cookeville Area As Recorded in the Pages of the Herald Citizen Newspaper, Cookeville, TN
    WAY BACK WHEN: LOOKING BACK IN HISTORY Happenings in the Cookeville area as recorded in the pages of the Herald Citizen Newspaper, Cookeville, TN. By Bob McMillian 1940’s (Compiled by Audrey J. Lambert) http://www.ajlambert.com 1940 (January 3, 1940) The Cookeville City Commission has intentionally allowed the airport’s lease to run out because its location — in a cornfield — did not qualify it for a $150,000 federal grant needed to build a new facility. (January 11, 1940) Members of the Putnam County Court vowed to do better and begin collecting past due property taxes after local attorney Worth Bryant blasted the magistrates. He said some long past due taxes are not uncollectible due to the statute of limitations. The magistrates asked County Judge B. C. Huddleston and County Attorney W. K. Crawford to begin filing suites against landowners whose taxes are overdue. (January 11, 1940) There is no Cookeville Airport this week. The city commission let the lease run out. It was intentional. The city has been leasing a corn field two miles north of Cookeville for an airport, but there’s a move afoot to get a federal grant of up to $150,000 to build a full•fledged air facility with a first class runway. But the corn field doesn’t qualify for the grant, so the city commission decided to let it go while looking for a better site. Cookeville has high hopes for its airport. The city lies under the intersection of east•west and north•south air mail routes. “Planes fly over the city at frequent intervals during the day and night,” says the newspaper.

  • CHAIRMEN of SENATE STANDING COMMITTEES [Table 5-3] 1789–Present
    CHAIRMEN OF SENATE STANDING COMMITTEES [Table 5-3] 1789–present INTRODUCTION The following is a list of chairmen of all standing Senate committees, as well as the chairmen of select and joint committees that were precursors to Senate committees. (Other special and select committees of the twentieth century appear in Table 5-4.) Current standing committees are highlighted in yellow. The names of chairmen were taken from the Congressional Directory from 1816–1991. Four standing committees were founded before 1816. They were the Joint Committee on ENROLLED BILLS (established 1789), the joint Committee on the LIBRARY (established 1806), the Committee to AUDIT AND CONTROL THE CONTINGENT EXPENSES OF THE SENATE (established 1807), and the Committee on ENGROSSED BILLS (established 1810). The names of the chairmen of these committees for the years before 1816 were taken from the Annals of Congress. This list also enumerates the dates of establishment and termination of each committee. These dates were taken from Walter Stubbs, Congressional Committees, 1789–1982: A Checklist (Westport, CT: Greenwood Press, 1985). There were eleven committees for which the dates of existence listed in Congressional Committees, 1789–1982 did not match the dates the committees were listed in the Congressional Directory. The committees are: ENGROSSED BILLS, ENROLLED BILLS, EXAMINE THE SEVERAL BRANCHES OF THE CIVIL SERVICE, Joint Committee on the LIBRARY OF CONGRESS, LIBRARY, PENSIONS, PUBLIC BUILDINGS AND GROUNDS, RETRENCHMENT, REVOLUTIONARY CLAIMS, ROADS AND CANALS, and the Select Committee to Revise the RULES of the Senate. For these committees, the dates are listed according to Congressional Committees, 1789– 1982, with a note next to the dates detailing the discrepancy.
