The governor of Texas is the chief executive officer of the state,
elected by the citizens every four years. The duties and responsibilities of
the governor include serving as commander-in-chief of the state's military
forces; convening special sessions of the legislature for specific purposes;
delivering to the legislature at the beginning of each regular session a report
on the condition of the state, an accounting of all public money under the
governor's control, a recommended biennial budget, an estimate of the amounts
of money required to be raised by taxation, and any recommendations he deems
necessary; signing or vetoing bills passed by the legislature; and executing
the laws of the state. The governor can grant reprieves and commutations of
punishment and pardons, upon the recommendation of the Board of Pardons and
Paroles, and revoke conditional pardons. He appoints numerous state officials
(with the consent of the Senate), fills vacancies in state and district offices
(except vacancies in the legislature), calls special elections to fill
vacancies in the legislature, fills vacancies in the United States Senate until
an election can be held, and serves as ex officio member of several state
boards.
The office of governor was first established by the Constitution of
1845 and superseded the office of president of the Republic of Texas. The
position now exists under authority of Article IV, Section 1 of the
Constitution of 1876 and Texas Government Code, Chapter 401. To be elected
governor, a person must be at least thirty years old, a United States citizen,
and a resident of Texas for at least five years preceding the election. In
1972, the term of office was extended from two to four years, effective in
1975. Since 1856 the governor has had the use of the Governor's Mansion.
In 1949 the Office of the Governor had less than 30 full-time
equivalent employees. The office was not formally organized into divisions or
departments.
Allan Shivers was born on October 5, 1907, in Lufkin, Texas. Shivers
attended high school in Port Arthur and college at the University of Texas. He
practiced law in Port Arthur before winning election to the Texas Senate in
1934, at age 27 the youngest member ever to sit in that body. He entered the
army during World War II and served in North Africa, Italy, France, and
Germany. He was discharged as a major, with five battle stars and the Bronze
Star. In 1946 he was elected lieutenant governor and worked closely with
Beauford Jester on an ambitious modernization program. He became governor upon
Jester's death in 1949.
Shivers set the stage for the emergence of Texas as a powerful
modern state. He helped create the Legislative Council and Legislative Budget
Board to put the making of laws on a more professional footing. He was able to
pass tax increases to upgrade state services across the board.
The most important issue faced by Shivers was his defense of state
claims to the Tidelands, off-shore oil reserves in the Gulf of Mexico. Texas
had held title to the submerged lands of the Gulf since the Republic of Texas
days, and had dedicated its revenues to the public school fund. After oil was
discovered offshore, federal officials tried to seize the Tidelands of Texas
and other oil-producing states. This action precipitated a crisis between state
and federal authority. In 1952, Shivers broke with the national Democratic
party over the issue and helped deliver the state's electoral votes to Dwight
Eisenhower, the first Republican to carry the state since Reconstruction.
Finally, the Tidelands were returned to the states through federal legislation.
After leaving office in January 1957, Shivers managed business
enterprises in the Rio Grande Valley and served as an executive for a number of
banks. He served on and chaired the University of Texas Board of Regents in the
1970s. He died January 14, 1985.
These records have not been processed. The folder inventory is an
almost exact transcription (some typographical errors were corrected) of an
earlier one based on existing box and folder titles. Rough, non-exclusive
groupings by title and date were formed to comply with the TARO project's file
size restrictions. Researchers are advised to review all the finding aids for
subjects of interest. Inconsistent titles and dates are evident.
Misidentifications and misfilings are possible.
This finding aid describes one series of the Allan Shivers records.
