After\n         studies at Oxford University in England, Parker received an\n         Erwin N. Griswold Scholarship to Harvard Law School, where he\n         obtained his L.L.B. degree in 1966. Married three times, to\n         Virginia Foster Durr, Carolyn Parker, and Ann Burlock Lawver,\n         Parker had four children: Barbara Parker Golden, Stephanie\n         Parker Weaver, Kevin Parker, and Ian Parker.","He began his legal career as a staff attorney in the Office\n         of General Counsel of the U.S. Commission on Civil Rights in\n         Washington from 1966-1968. In 1968, Parker moved to Jackson,\n         Mississippi, to work for the Lawyers' Committee for Civil\n         Rights Under Law. He became chief Counsel of the Jackson\n         office in 1976, where he litigated dozens of voting rights,\n         public employment, and segregation cases. This work included\n         the landmark U.S. Supreme Court case Connor v. Finch.","In 1981, Parker moved to Washington to direct the Lawyers'\n         Committee's Voting Rights Project, where he helped secure from\n         Congress a 25-year extension of the 1965 Voting Rights Act.\n         During his 12 years as Director of the Voting Rights Project,\n         he launched a program to enforce the guarantees of the Voting\n         Rights Act on a nationwide level through litigation and public\n         education, and was a leader in the five- year struggle to\n         enact the National Voter Registration Act of 1993. In 1990, he\n         authored an award-winning book on the impact of the Voting\n         Rights Act in Mississippi, Black Votes Count: Political\n         Empowerment in Mississippi After 1965. He co-founded the\n         Harvard Civil Rights-Civil Liberties Law Review. He also wrote\n         eight book chapters, seven law review articles, and numerous\n         case notes, conference reports, and articles.","In 1993, Parker accepted a position at the District of\n         Columbia School of Law, where he taught from 1993-1995. He was\n         a visiting professor at American University Washington College\n         of Law in 1995-1996, and Washington and Lee University School\n         of Law in 1996-1997. At the time of his death on July 10,\n         1997, Parker had accepted an appointment as a visiting law\n         professor at the University of Pittsburgh.","Biographical materials include correspondence, resumes,\n         photos, and memorabilia. Obituaries and materials from the memorial service in Parker's honor at the U.S. Department of Justice are also here. Personal papers include\n         correspondence and notebooks from Parker' s student days at\n         Oxford, England. Audio and video recordings are mostly\n         interviews given by or conducted by Parker on the subject of\n         votings rights. Lawyers' Committee For Civil Rights Under Law\n         papers document Parker's work for the Committee's voting\n         rights project at both its Mississippi and Washington, D.C.\n         offices. Included are correspondence subject files, and case\n         files. Redistricting in Lee County Mississippi is heavily\n         documented. Writings include printed versions of much of\n         Parker' s writing from throughout his career; research\n         materials for Black Votes Count; research materials and a typescript for the\n         unpublished book For the Common Good: The Case for Affirmative\n         Action.

He married Hope Loraine Edson in\n         1948. They had one adopted son. Laughlin was educated in\n         public schools in Hopkinton, Iowa, and attended Lennox College\n         in that same city. He earned both an L.L.B. in 1929 and an\n         A.B. in 1930 from George Washington University. In 1940 he\n         received an L.L.M. degree from Harvard University. He added a\n         Doctor of Jurisprudence (J.S.D.) degree from the University of\n         Chicago to his credentials in 1942. In 1957, he attended the\n         Academy of International Law at the Hague, Netherlands.","Laughlin practiced in law firms in Washington, D.C. and\n         Chicago during the years 1929-1938. He taught political\n         science at Lennox College in 1931-1932 and again in 1938-1939.\n         In 1940 he began teaching law at Washington and Lee\n         University. In 1942 Laughlin joined the U.S. Army seeing\n         active duty with the Judge Advocate General's (JAG) Corps from\n         1943 to 1946. He continued his service with the JAG corps as a\n         reservist from 1946 to 1960. Returning to the W \u0026 L Law\n         School in 1946, Laughlin was made full professor in 1950. He\n         taught there until his retirement in 1977 when he was named\n         professor emeritus. Laughlin's fields of teaching\n         specialization included evidence, jurisprudence, and labor\n         law. Widely known as an authority in labor arbitration, he\n         served as a federal labor arbitrator from 1973 to 1981.","He accepted several visiting professorships during his\n         career, most notably as a Fulbright lecturer in American law\n         at the University of Helsinki, Finland in 1963-1964. Laughlin\n         was published in numerous law reviews, and he wrote nineteen\n         articles for the ABA Journal. He was a major contributor to\n         the 1982 book Legal Education in Virginia, 1779-1979: A\n         Biographical Approach published by the University Press of\n         Virginia.","A life-long Republican, Laughlin held positions in local\n         and state party organizations throughout his career. He was\n         twice a delegate to Republican state conventions (Iowa in 1932\n         and Virginia in 1952.) In 1932, he was an unsuccessful\n         candidate for the Iowa state legislature. He also served as\n         chairman of the Lexington (Virginia) Electoral Board. He\n         served as a U.S. Commissioner (later called U.S. Magistrate)\n         during the years 1962-1974.","Professor Laughlin died on January 29, 1985. The faculty\n         lounge in the W \u0026 L law school is named in his honor. In\n         1977, the Law School Association announced the establishment\n         of the Charles V. Laughlin Award, which is given each year to\n         the outstanding oral advocate in the Burks Moot Court\n         Competition.","The Charles V. Laughlin Papers consist of five cubic feet\n         of papers from the years 1940-1981. They are arranged in seven\n         series: Biographical Materials; U.S. Army Service; Washington\n         and Lee School of Law; Research and Writing; Clerkship with\n         Judge H. Emory Widener; U.S. Commissioner \u0026 Magistrate\n         Records; and Arbitration Cases.","The Biographical Materials include a summary of Laughlin's\n         war record, a biographical statement, and various membership\n         cards.","The U.S. Army Service is arranged in four series: \"201\n         File,\" diary, \"log/meetings\" of USAR School, and notebooks.\n         These materials document Laughlin's activities while an active\n         and reserve member of the Judge Advocate General's Corps. The\n         \"201 File\" contains Laughlin's personal copies of documents\n         from his official Army personnel file. The contents are well\n         enumerated in the container list. The last element of this\n         series is the History of the JA Section of the Headquarters\n         Central Pacific Base Command, which Laughlin wrote for the\n         JAG. This history discusses the mission, personnel,\n         administrative decisions, military justice, claims and legal\n         assistance of the JA. The diary and the other small notebooks\n         document daily activities, meetings and courses attended.","The Washington and Lee School of Law materials deal with\n         Laughlin's service on the curriculum committee, Dean's search\n         committee and as a recipient of the Robert E. Lee Research\n         Grant.","The Research and Writing materials related to two projects:\n         Legal Education in Virginia, 1779-1979: A Biographical\n         Approach and \"Theory of a Two Party System\". The Legal\n         Education in Virginia materials include correspondence,\n         biographical sketches, photocopied articles, and research\n         notes pertaining to Washington and Lee Law School and its\n         faculty. Laughlin collected information, including letters he\n         had solicited from former students, and drafted biographical\n         sketches of deceased W \u0026 L law professors. Twenty-six of\n         these sketches were included by editor W. Hamilton Bryson when\n         this work was published in 1982 by the University Press of\n         Virginia. Among the research materials gathered here is a copy\n         of a draft of \"Chapter XXIV School of Law\" from Ollinger\n         Crenshaw's General Lee's College The Rise and Growth of\n         Washington and Lee University, 1969.","The never published \"Theory of a Two Party System\" was\n         written between 1961 and 1963. The work deals with political\n         party dynamics in modern democratic society, particularly in\n         the United States and England. An abstract of this work\n         appears both in the \"prospectus\" and \"preface.\"","The record of proceedings documenting Laughlin's time as a\n         United States Commissioner (1962-1971) and Magistrate\n         (1972-1974) consists of forms summarizing the facts of each\n         case and giving Laughlin's judgement. These are arranged\n         chronologically. There is also one case file associated with\n         Laughlin's service as commissioner.","The series concerning Laughlin's Clerkship with Judge H.\n         Emory Widener (1974- 1979) of the U.S. 4th Circuit Court\n         begins with one folder of materials concerning the uniform\n         commercial code. The remainder of the materials consists of\n         research, writing and correspondence relating to each case\n         that Laughlin work on. These are arranged by the case docket\n         numbers. This was, apparently, a \"clerkship by mail\", as there\n         is no evidence that Laughlin--who was on the faculty when\n         Widener was a student at W \u0026 L law school--was every in\n         residence in Judge Widener's chambers. This index lists 55\n         arbitrated cases, only 26 of which are represented in these\n         papers. The index provides a notification number, date of\n         notification, source of notification, source number, reason\n         for continuance, grievant, employer, union, issue, hearing\n         number, date of hearing, place of hearing, date of deposition,\n         type, remarks and citations. An annotated explanation and\n         comments sheet accompanies the index of cases.","The Labor Arbitration materials consist primarily of\n         records of Laughlin's work as an arbitrator for the U.S.\n         Federal Mediation and Conciliation Service. These records are\n         arranged by case number. Each file contains a worksheet;\n         correspondence; depositions and transcripts; exhibit;, briefs;\n         and union agreements. An index to the docket of cases\n         arbitrated precedes all of the case files.","These case files are followed by five cases in which\n         Laughlin acted as a consultant or as an arbitrator, but not,\n         apparently, under the auspices of the U.S. Federal Mediation\n         and Conciliation Service. Finally, there are papers concerning\n         Laughlin's labor relations consulting work with the Chamber of\n         Commerce and Industry of Willemstad, Curacao, Netherlands\n         Antilles.","There are no restrictions.","English"],"collection_title_tesim":["Charles Vaill Laughlin Papers \n \n 1940-1983"],"collection_ssim":["Charles Vaill Laughlin Papers \n \n 1940-1983"],"level_ssm":["collection"],"level_ssim":["Collection"],"unitid_ssm":["005"],"unitid_tesim":["005"],"repository_ssm":["Washington and Lee University, Law School"],"repository_ssim":["Washington and Lee University, Law School"],"access_terms_ssm":["There are no restrictions."],"has_online_content_ssim":["false"],"physdesc_tesim":["5 cu.\n         ft."],"accessrestrict_html_tesm":["\u003cp\u003eThere are no restrictions.\u003c/p\u003e\n      "],"accessrestrict_heading_ssm":["Access"],"accessrestrict_tesim":["There are no restrictions."],"bioghist_html_tesm":["\u003cp\u003eCharles Vaill Laughlin (1907-1985)was born in Pittsfield,\n         Illinois on May 26, 1907.

He married Hope Loraine Edson in\n         1948. They had one adopted son. Laughlin was educated in\n         public schools in Hopkinton, Iowa, and attended Lennox College\n         in that same city. He earned both an L.L.B. in 1929 and an\n         A.B. in 1930 from George Washington University. In 1940 he\n         received an L.L.M. degree from Harvard University. He added a\n         Doctor of Jurisprudence (J.S.D.) degree from the University of\n         Chicago to his credentials in 1942. In 1957, he attended the\n         Academy of International Law at the Hague, Netherlands.","Laughlin practiced in law firms in Washington, D.C. and\n         Chicago during the years 1929-1938. He taught political\n         science at Lennox College in 1931-1932 and again in 1938-1939.\n         In 1940 he began teaching law at Washington and Lee\n         University. In 1942 Laughlin joined the U.S. Army seeing\n         active duty with the Judge Advocate General's (JAG) Corps from\n         1943 to 1946. He continued his service with the JAG corps as a\n         reservist from 1946 to 1960. Returning to the W \u0026 L Law\n         School in 1946, Laughlin was made full professor in 1950. He\n         taught there until his retirement in 1977 when he was named\n         professor emeritus. Laughlin's fields of teaching\n         specialization included evidence, jurisprudence, and labor\n         law. Widely known as an authority in labor arbitration, he\n         served as a federal labor arbitrator from 1973 to 1981.","He accepted several visiting professorships during his\n         career, most notably as a Fulbright lecturer in American law\n         at the University of Helsinki, Finland in 1963-1964. Laughlin\n         was published in numerous law reviews, and he wrote nineteen\n         articles for the ABA Journal. He was a major contributor to\n         the 1982 book Legal Education in Virginia, 1779-1979: A\n         Biographical Approach published by the University Press of\n         Virginia.","A life-long Republican, Laughlin held positions in local\n         and state party organizations throughout his career. He was\n         twice a delegate to Republican state conventions (Iowa in 1932\n         and Virginia in 1952.) In 1932, he was an unsuccessful\n         candidate for the Iowa state legislature. He also served as\n         chairman of the Lexington (Virginia) Electoral Board. He\n         served as a U.S. Commissioner (later called U.S. Magistrate)\n         during the years 1962-1974.","Professor Laughlin died on January 29, 1985.

Having already read law for a year in\n         his father's office, Davis completed the law degree\n         requirements in nine months. After practicing for a year in\n         West Virginia, he accepted a position as the third member of\n         the expanded law faculty at Washington and Lee. During the\n         1897 school year, Dean John Randolph Tucker died and Davis had\n         to take on the additional load of teaching Tucker's classes.\n         Though tempted to stay on at Washington and Lee under the\n         leadership of the new president, William L. Wilson, Davis\n         chose the \"rough \u0026 tumble\" of private practice. Two years\n         later, when Professor Charles Graves left Washington and Lee\n         to accept a chair at the University of Virginia, he was again\n         invited to join the permanent faculty. Davis again selected\n         private practice over teaching. He remained loyal to\n         Washington and Lee and later served more that two decades on\n         its board of trustees.","Davis practiced law in Clarksburg from 1897 to 1913. During\n         this period he was active in West Virginia and national\n         Democratic politics. He was elected to the West Virginia House\n         of Delegates in 1899 and, from 1911-1913, he served in the\n         U.S. Congress. In 1912 he married Ellen G. Bassell. (He had\n         married Julia McDonald in 1899. She died in childbirth a year\n         later.) From 1913-1918 he served as U. S. Solicitor general.\n         In September 1918, Davis was one of the delegates to the\n         Berne, Switzerland conference on the treatment and exchange of\n         Prisoner. From 1918 until 1921 he was ambassador to Great\n         Britain. In 1921 Davis moved from London to New York to become\n         head of the prominent Wall Street law firm Davis, Polk and\n         Wardwell. Clients included J. P. Morgan and Company, and U. S.\n         Steel.","In 1922, the same year he served as president of the\n         American Bar Association, Davis rejected appointment to the U.\n         S. Supreme Court. In 1924 he became the Democratic nominee for\n         president. He waged a conservative, high-minded and losing\n         campaign against Calvin Coolidge. He left the political arena,\n         only reemerging briefly in the 1930's as an organizer of the\n         anti-New Deal Liberty league.","For the rest of his career, he devoted himself to his\n         private practice. By his death in 1955 he had made 139 oral\n         arguments before the Supreme Court, at the time a 20th century\n         record. Davis was honored in his lifetime by fourteen honorary\n         doctorates. Felix Frankfurter, Learned Hand, and Hugo Black,\n         among others, deemed him one of the two or three finest\n         advocates of the century.","Davis' lifelong fidelity to the conservative legal\n         principles espoused by his father and by the Washington and\n         Lee law faculty at the time he was a student make for a\n         seemingly inconsistent record of advocacy. He may be best\n         remembered for successfully defending the steel industry\n         against government seizure during the Korean War, and for\n         unsuccessfully arguing South Carolina's case for maintaining\n         segregated schools in the school desegregation cases now known\n         jointly as Brown v. Board of Education. But Davis' second case\n         as Solicitor General made a strong argument against Oklahoma's\n         \"grandfather clause\" excluding blacks from voting (Guinn v.\n         United States). He spoke in defense of religious liberty in\n         the 1928 presidential campaign when candidate Al Smith was\n         attacked because of his Catholicism. In a 1931 pro bono case,\n         Davis defended a Yale divinity professor in a case (United\n         States v. Macintosh) that became a leading precedent in the\n         development of the law of conscientious objection. During the\n         Cold War, Davis was contemptuous of McCarthyite tactics. He\n         was involved both in the Alger Hiss case and in preparing the\n         appeal of J. Robert Oppenheimer to the Atomic Energy\n         Commission for security clearance.","Related Manuscript Collections\n          Researchers should note that the bulk of the papers\n               of John W.

Married three times, to\n         Virginia Foster Durr, Carolyn Parker, and Ann Burlock Lawver,\n         Parker had four children: Barbara Parker Golden, Stephanie\n         Parker Weaver, Kevin Parker, and Ian Parker.","He began his legal career as a staff attorney in the Office\n         of General Counsel of the U.S. Commission on Civil Rights in\n         Washington from 1966-1968. In 1968, Parker moved to Jackson,\n         Mississippi, to work for the Lawyers' Committee for Civil\n         Rights Under Law.
