2 BIOGRAPHY This section contains a brief sketch of the governor.
Edward Ferdinand Arn was born 19 May 1906 to Edward F. Arn and Grace Bell
Edwards Arn. Arn's father — a coal, feed, and building materials salesman — died when his
son was only four months old. Edward was raised by his mother in Kansas City and Muncie,
Kansas, where he also attended school.
During his youth, Arn performed various jobs to earn his money for his education, doing
such things as delivering groceries and newspapers, and working as a filling station attendant.
In college, Arn attended Kansas City Junior College, the University of Kansas, and in 1931, he
graduated from the Kansas City School of Law. He was admitted to the Missouri Bar in 1930
and the Kansas Bar in 1931.
Early in his career, Arn worked as an investigator for the State Highway Commission of
Kansas. Beginning in 1936 he practiced law in Wichita. During World War II, he served as a
lieutenant and security officer on board an aircraft carrier in the U.S. Navy.
In Republican Party politics, Arn was a nearly omnipresent force as early as his
university days. While still a freshman in college, he was chairman of the Wyandotte County
Republicans. He was also a precinct committeeman for six years, and a chairman of a
congressional district of Young Republicans for six years.
During the gubernatorial campaigns of both Payne Ratner and Andrew Scheoppel, Arn
served as campaign chairman. In this capacity, he gained a statewide reputation with in the
Republican Party.
In 1947, Arn was elected to the position of Kansas attorney general. While attorney
general, he attempted to strictly enforce the state's prohibition laws, but concluded that
successful enforcement would require legions of investigators and law enforcement officials. In
1949, Governor Frank Carlson appointed Arn to fill a vacancy on the State Supreme Court, a
position he held only briefly.
In 1950, Arn resigned from the State's highest court to run for governor. He won this
Office of the Governor : 1951 – 1955 (Edward F. Arn) : An Inventory of the Records in the State Archives (Kansas State Historical Soc.)
Page 4
election, defeating Kenneth T. Anderson by over 57,000 votes. Arn was re-elected in 1952,
defeating the Democratic challenger, Tom Rooney.
In 1962, Arn tried for the Republican nomination for the U.S. Senate, but lost to James
B. Pearson.
In 1973, the chief justice of the Kansas Supreme Court appointed Arn to chair the
Judicial Study Advisory Committee.
In his personal life, Arn first married Marcella Ruth Tillmore, and with her had two
daughters, Barbara Claire and Delores Louise. Following Marcella's death in 1966, Arn married
Catharine Phillipi Ross.
Arn was a member of several legal associations, clubs, and fraternal orders, such as the
American Bar Association, the Kansas Bar Association, and the American Judicature Society.
His fraternity was Delta Theta Pi. He was a member of the Masons, Lions International,
Sojourners, Veterans of Foreign Wars and American Legion. His spiritual preference was
Congregationalist.
Edward Arn died in 1998.
3 AGENCY HISTORY
The office of the Governor of the State of Kansas was established by the State
Constitution of 1859 (the Wyandotte Constitution). According to constitutional mandate, some
of the more important duties, functions, and responsibilities of the Kansas Governor are to see
that the laws are faithfully executed, supervise appointees directing State agencies, convene the
Legislature in extraordinary session, communicate information on the condition of the State and
recommend such measures as he may deem expedient, command the State’s military forces, and
issue commissions in the name of the State. For a complete list of gubernatorial duties, see the
Kansas State Constitution (1859), Article I.
4 SCOPE AND CONTENTS This section contains a description and analysis of the contents of the collection.
The arrangement and description of the correspondence of the Governor's Office is
Office of the Governor : 1951 – 1955 (Edward F. Arn) : An Inventory of the Records in the State Archives (Kansas State Historical Soc.)
Page 5
structured according to the arrangement, duties, functions and responsibilities of the Governor
and the Executive Branch of the Kansas State government. While there is considerable
consistency between governors, each occupant of the office has organized his or her files
slightly differently, a reflection is his or her administrative style.
Governor Arn’s Correspondence Series is subdivided into an Alphabetical File; an
Appointments File related to the naming of people to official government boards, departments
and other government offices; a State Agencies File; and a Subject File.
The Alphabetical File contains routine correspondence from concerned citizens about
subjects not included in the Subject Files or from notable correspondents, arranged by name.
The State Agencies File contains routine correspondence to and from nearly all of the
bureaus of State government. This is the appropriate subseries for research of state agency
activities and history.
The Subject File contains a wide array of files on important subject matters of the time.
Researchers investigating important issues of any given era in Kansas' or national historyshould
examine these records.
Oversize items have been removed from their original locations for more appropriate
storage. Transfer forms, identifying the item, and giving information on its oversize location,
have been placed in the items’ original locations.
Issues particular to the State of Kansas during Governor Arn's tenure include a flood of
disastrous proportions in 1951. This cataclysmic event generated approximately two cubic feet
of letters, reports, studies and other documentation.
Compounding the State’s problems, a drought followed in 1953. Not only Kansas but
also neighboring States were affected by this situation. Ultimately President Dwight Eisenhower
offered federal assistance. The drought resulted in a significant amount of records being received
and created by the Governor’s Office.
On a happier note, Kansans celebrated their Territorial Centennial in 1954, and the
State’s official commemoration is reflected in Governor Arn’s records.
Issues originating in Kansas which exerted an influence beyond its borders include the
reknowned Brown v. Board of Education Supreme Court Case, and the election of Dwight D.
Eisenhower of Abilene, to the presidency. A folder concerning school desegregation is found in
the Subject File subseries entitled "Segregation." Among a small amount of correspondence
concerning this issue is a per curiam issued by the U.S. Supreme Court to the governor of
Office of the Governor : 1951 – 1955 (Edward F. Arn) : An Inventory of the Records in the State Archives (Kansas State Historical Soc.)

Kansas.
When Dwight D. Eisenhower, hero of the Second World War, was elected president,
Kansans were beaming with pride. Concerned and patriotic citizens petitioned the governor to
recognize President Eisenhower's inauguration in some official capacity, which he did in a
proclamation included in these records.
Domestically, the effect of American troops fighting in Korea was manifested in a
variety of ways. One result took the form of concern for the well-being and adequate
compensation of our fighting troops overseas. Another focused on the fact that eighteen year
old men were being drafted for military service in Korea. Some thought that if men were old
enough to be required for military duty, they should also be granted the right to vote. Another
result of American involvement in Korea reflected in these records relief for war ravaged
civilians in that country.
A prominent issue of the day that affected the State as a part of the Union in addition to
the Korean Conflict was U.S. Senator Joseph McCarthy’s campaign to rid the federal
government of alleged communists within its ranks. Specific files exist in these records for
McCarthyism. During the 1950s, when the Cold War was most active, citizens reacted with
alarm to any hint of anything un-American or leftist, and these concerns are reflected in the
correspondence the governor received. In Washington, D.C., Senator McCarthy's influence was
so powerful that he personified the sense of forced conformism that characterized the age.
McCarthy and his anti-communist campaign captured nearly all of the media spot light.
However, by the spring of 1954, the tide had turned against him, and by December of that year,
the Senate censured him. Governor Arn’s correspondence includes messages from those critical
of McCarthy and his actions as well as those who supported his anti-communist crusade.
The booming post World War II economy also is represented in the governor’s records.
With the conclusion of World War II, the return of millions of service men from the war front
caused a huge demand for housing in the late 1940s and early 1950s. The overwhelming
demand for housing, naturally, caused housing rental rates to escalate sharply. The situation
was so severe that the federal government established the Office of Rent Stabilization. A file
entitled "Rent Control" reflects this problem and its effect on Kansans.
As in all gubernatorial administrations, international problems and issues affecting the
nation also affected the state in microcosm. Internationally, some of the things going on at the
time were the war in Korea; the coronation of Queen Elizabeth II, whose empire was in the
process of turning into a Commonwealth of individual nations; the Cold War, which was at its
height; Israel, which was struggling to survive amongst hostile Arab neighbors; and the French,
who were fighting to maintain their imperial possessions in Indochina. Documentation
concerning some of these issues appears in the governor's correspondence.

9 DESCRIPTION OF SUBORDINATE COMPONENTS Archival records are typically organized by series, a group of records that has a common element or function
and a distinct organizational structure of its own, for example Correspondence Files, arranged chronologically, or
Registers of Military Enlistments, arranged by regiment. Within series, records may be further organized by
subseries, such as Letters Received within the series Correspondence Files; or arranged into volumes; folders; or
items. Groups of series from the same office or other organizational element may form a subgroup, a portion of a
larger record group or collection, such as the sub - group 1979 – 87 (John Carlin) as a part of State Archives
record group 252, Records of the Office of the Governor. Sub - groups may be further divided into sub - subgroups
— such as Gov. Carlin’s Constituent Services Records — sub - sub - subgroups, etc.
