Finding aid revised by Elizabeth Engel in January 2014 and by Lauren Leeman on April 27, 2020. Historical Note: Phil M. Donnelly was born in Lebanon, Missouri, on March 6, 1891 and received his education at Lebanon High School and the Saint Louis University Law School in St. Louis. Donnelly was admitted to the Bar on December 24, 1912. He married Juanita McFadden in Maplewood, Missouri, on May 22, 1915. They had one son, Phillip David. Donnelly served as prosecuting attorney of Laclede County and several terms as city of attorney of Lebanon. Donnelly was elected to the Missouri House of Representatives in 1922. In 1924, he was elected to the Missouri Senate and reelected in 1928, 1932, 1936, and 1940. While a member of the 57th General Assembly, he was majority floor leader of the Senate and during the 58th General Assembly served as president pro temp of the Senate. He held the same office during part of the 60th General Assembly. In 1938, Donnelly was the chairman of the Statutes Revision Commission and served as the chairman of the Decennial Statue Revision Commission in 1939. In the 61st General Assembly, he acted as chairman of the Committee on Ways and Means and Committee on Education. He also served on the following committees: Judiciary, Criminal Jurisprudence, Banks and Banking, Agriculture, Roads and Highways, Private Corporations, Railroads and Internal Improvements, Penal Institutions and Reform Schools, and Rules and Joint Rules. Donnelly was elected Governor of Missouri in November 1944, and later was elected for a second term on November 4, 1952. Donnelly, a Democrat, faced a Republican controlled General Assembly in both the 1945 and 1947 sessions. Administratively, he successfully opposed the Federal Social Security Administration. He instituted a $75 million bond issue that was approved by the voters to modernize the state institutions and rehabilitate them. Judicial appointments were filled on the basis of legal qualification rather than party affiliations. In labor, he clashed with the St. Louis police department when it desired to unionize and with strikes in public utilities in Kansas City and St. Louis. The resulting legislation, the King-Thompson Act, penalized strikes against public utilities. However much of the act was later declared unconstitutional. Donnelly contended with a Republication controlled House in the first session of his second term. He directed the quelling of prison riots which attracted national attention in 1953. He also moved against crime and gambling. During the 1953-1955 drought he refused Federal Assistance, while working for the farmer in his plight. In his appointments, he refused to select his judicial judges for the non-partisan Board. In 1955, he used the veto twenty-six times. Following his governorship, he retired from politics and transitioned into practicing law with his son in Lebanon, Missouri. He died in Lebanon, Missouri on September 12, 1961 and he is buried in the Lebanon, Missouri city cemetery.

PROGRESS THE PROGRESS of Negroes in the United States is so great that history will point out what you have done as one of the achievements which mark this age. Your rise is one of the best proofs of the value of the American theory of government. Successes by individuals here and there have been multiplied until now yours is a mass movement. You are advancing all along the line, a sound basis for your having confidence in the future. The world’s work needs every man. I look to see the Negro, prepared by difficulty, and tested by adversity, be a valued factor in upbuilding the commonwealth. In the Middle West, where The Kansas City Call is published, lies opportunity. In addition to urban pursuits you have available for the man of small means, the farm which is one of the primary industries. The Negro in your section can develop in a well rounded way. Above all things, take counsel of what you are doing, rather than of the trials you are undergoing. Look up and go up! Julius Rosenwald [page 2] “PROGRESS EDITION” CELEBRATING THE KANSAS CITY CALL’S TENTH ANNIVERSARY Kansas City, Missouri, Friday, July YOU ARE WELCOME!
