Executive Departments CHAPTER 6 EXECUTIVE DEPARTMENTS “The ratification of the 19th amendment here in Missouri was another giant step toward our Founders vision for liberty and equality for all citizens. What a huge honor to celebrate the 100th year anniversary while serving in the General Assembly.” Representative Dottie Bailey (R-110) “I am grateful to many women who came before me that championed women’s suffrage. Thank you Virginia Minor, an early champion, and to Edna Gellhorn for organizing the ‘walkless, talkless parade’ in St. Louis in 1916. I am proud to travel on the road you paved for us.” Representative Deb Lavender (D-90) 340 OFFICIAL MANUAL present state departments is shown on the follow- ing page.

A chart showing the officials themselves and not by related agencies. The Missouri Constitution Since achieving statehood and joining the union on August 10, 1821, Missouri has oper- ated under four Constitutions. The first was adopted in 1820 and was presented to Congress before Missouri was allowed to enter the union of states. The state’s second Constitution, born in the bitterness and strife of the Civil War, was drafted and adopted in 1865. It was replaced by a third Constitution only ten years later, in 1875. Missourians approved their current Constitu- tion in 1945, and it has been amended a number of times in order to meet the changing needs of our state and its people. The Constitution of the State of Missouri is published by the Office of Secretary of State pursuant to the Revised Statutes of Missouri (RSMo 2.110).

For more information, please contact [email protected]. ESSAY SPORTS FACILITIES & URBAN REDEVELOPMENT DAVID E. CARDWELL* The 1990s was a decade in which new sports facilities of every type and description were built throughout the United States and Canada. Not since the 1960s when baseball began its major expansion has there been such a boom in new facilities. The decade began with the construc- tion of New Comiskey Park in Chicago in 1991. The following construc- tion boom has continued unabated into the present. What explains this explosion in new design, concepts and construc- tion? It is more than the mere aging of structures (i.e., Wrigley Field is still going strong even though it dates back to 1916). Changes in the economics of the game explain much of the need for new facilities that generate more revenue that can then be retained by the team to pay ever-increasing player salaries. The specifics of the economics of modern professional sports are be- yond the scope of this article. Suffice it to say that the fundamental changes in all major professional sports in the United States resulting from player free agency, increased broadcast revenue, merchandise and other non-game revenue, and the conversion from family to corporate ownership of teams has made the financial bottom line just as important as the team's place in the standings.

  • The Protection of Missouri Governors Has Come a Long Way Since 1881, When Governor Thomas Crittenden Kept a .44-Caliber Smith and Wesson Revolver in His Desk Drawer
    GOVERNOR’S SECURITY DIVISION The protection of Missouri governors has come a long way since 1881, when Governor Thomas Crittenden kept a .44-caliber Smith and Wesson revolver in his desk drawer. He had offered a $5,000 reward for the arrest and delivery of Frank and Jesse James, and kept the weapon handy to guard against retaliation. In less than a year, Jesse James had been killed, and in October 1882, Frank James surrendered, handing his .44 Remington revolver to Governor Crittenden in the governor’s office. In 1939, eight years after the creation of the Missouri State Highway Patrol, several troopers were assigned to escort and chauffeur Governor Lloyd Stark, and provide security at the Governor’s Mansion for the first family following death threats by Kansas City mobsters. Governor Stark had joined federal authorities in efforts to topple political boss Tom Pendergast. Within a year, Pendergast and 100 of his followers were indicted. In early 1963, Colonel Hugh Waggoner called Trooper Richard D. Radford into his office one afternoon. He told Tpr. Radford to report to him at 8 a.m. the following morning in civilian clothes. At that time, he would accompany Tpr. Radford to the governor’s office. The trooper was introduced to Governor John Dalton and was assigned to full-time security following several threats. Since security for the governor was in its infancy, Tpr. Radford had to develop procedures as he went along. There was no formal protection training available at this time, and the only equipment consisted of a suit, concealed weapon, and an unmarked car.

  • Katy Trail Connection Sample Letter
    SAMPLE LETTER OF SUPPORT FOR KATY TRAIL CONNECTION TO KANSAS CITY Governor Matt Blunt Room 216, State Capitol Building Jefferson City MO 65101 Governor Blunt, The potential to "complete the Katy Trail" by connecting the trail to the Kansas City metropolitan area, creating a seamless trail connection across the entire state, is an exciting one for Missouri. The Kansas City connection will help maintain the Katy Trail's status as one of Missouri's most popular state parks and an international tourist and recreation destination. Connecting the Katy Trail to Kansas City will make the trail the centerpiece of a compete, seamless statewide trail network that will allow bicyclists, runners, walkers, hikers, nature enthusiasts, bird watchers, and others to safely connect to communities and natural areas across Missouri. The potential for the Katy Trail to act as the hub of a "Quad State Trail", connecting communities in Kansas, Nebraska, Iowa, and Illinois to those in Missouri, creates additional potential for tourism and economic development. The connection between the existing Katy Trail and the Kansas City metropolitan area is the key to allowing this Quad State Trail system to develop. The complete Katy Trail and the Quad-State Trail System will provide tremendous tourism, economic development, and public health benefits to communities and to the public. I support the Katy Trail connection to Kansas City, commend its economic, natural, and health benefits, and respectfully urge the Governor, the Missouri Department of Natural Resources, the Missouri Attorney General, and other interested parties to move with all due haste in completing the Katy Trail network from state line to state line.
