He received his B.A. from Washington and Lee University\n in 1910, and his law degree from Louisiana State University in\n 1920. That same year, he began his law practice with the firm\n of Smitherman \u0026 Tucker. At the time of his death in 1984,\n he was the senior partner of Tucker, Jeter \u0026 Jackson.\n Tucker married Hortense Rigby, a native of Mansfield, Ohio, in\n 1924.","Tucker began his service with the U.S. Army on the Mexican\n border in 1916. During World War I, he served as aide-de-camp\n to General W.P. Richardson in France and northern Russia. He\n was recalled to active service in 1940 as provost-marshal of\n Camp Beauregard. In World War II he served in the Army Air\n Forces where he earned the rank of full Colonel. He retired\n from the Army in 1951.","When the state legislature created the Louisiana State Law\n Institute in 1938, Tucker was elected its first president, a\n post he held until 1965. The institute worked to modernize\n civil procedure and codify criminal law. Tucker was considered\n an authority on the Napoleonic Code and authored Sources Books\n of Louisiana Law. Active on civic boards and a trustee of the\n First Presbyterian Church of Shreveport, Tucker received\n numerous awards and honorary degrees, including an honorary\n doctor of laws degree from Washington and Lee in 1958.","Tucker amassed a 12,000 volume personal law library which\n was donated to the Louisiana State University Law School.\n Because of his love of legal literature, and in recognition of\n his $2.75 million bequest to Washington and Lee, the\n University designated the faculty library in the School of Law\n as the Hortense Rigby and John H. Tucker, Jr. Faculty Law\n Library in 1985.","These papers are arranged in two series: 1) Personal\n Papers, 1938-1940 and 2) U.S. Army Papers, 1916-1942. The\n Personal Papers include the subseries Biographical Materials\n (1 folder); General Correspondence, 1918-1981 (bulk\n 1940-1943); \"Some Notes on Guns, Shooting and Hunting,\"\n 1946-1947; 1 folder .75 cu.ft.; Printed Materials; and\n Photographs. The U.S. Army Papers series includes the\n subseries World War I, Camp Beauregard, and World War II. Each\n of these subseries contain several of the following forms of\n materials: orders, memoranda, training materials, clippings,\n and photos. The Camp Beauregard subseries also contains a\n diary kept by Tucker.","These papers, which treat only a small fragment of Tucker's\n life, most heavily document his Army experiences in both World\n War I and World War II. Tucker was also involved in the vital\n training exercises in Louisiana that prepared U.S. troops for\n combat in the time immediately preceding America's entry into\n World War II. Some of this activity is documented in the Camp\n Beauregard portion of these papers which includes Tucker's\n diary from that time.","The personal correspondence contains a few letters from the\n World War I period and some from post-World War II. The\n preponderance of this series, however, is from the time\n immediately preceding United States entry into World War II\n and during the first year of American involvement in that war.\n Though there are some carbon copy letters of reply by Tucker,\n most of the letters are incoming. Though many letters deal\n with the military and the war, there is a range of subjects\n treated including: Tucker's law firm business and individual\n cases in which he was interested; business of the Louisiana\n State Law Institute; personal business; and family\n matters.","The photographs include almost 350 prints of German aerial\n reconnaissance of western Europe during World War I. There is\n no record of how Tucker came into possession of these photos.\n The maps are primarily military situation maps from World War\n I (France and Archangel, Russia) and 1940 U.S. Army\n maneuvers.","English"],"collection_title_tesim":["John H.

During World War I, he served as aide-de-camp\n to General W.P. Richardson in France and northern Russia. He\n was recalled to active service in 1940 as provost-marshal of\n Camp Beauregard. In World War II he served in the Army Air\n Forces where he earned the rank of full Colonel.

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.
