McNeill Smith Papers, 1937-1999

1937-1999

John McNeill Smith Jr. (1918-2011), a white attorney, state legislator, and teacher, practiced law in Greensboro, N.C. He was attorney for University of North Carolina students in the Speaker Ban case in 1963; co-counsel, 1958-1962, for Junius Irving Scales, a Communist Party member charged with advocating violent overthrow of the government; and negotiator during the 1960 lunch counter sit-in in Greensboro. Smith served as state representative and then senator, 1971-1978. After an unsuccessful campaign for the United States Senate in 1978, he continued to practice law and taught constitutional law at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. The papers, 1937-1999, of McNeill Smith document his career as a lawyer and as a North Carolina state legislator. Political papers, which make up the bulk of the collection, include materials relating to Smith's tenure in the North Carolina legislature, political campaigns, and other political activities. Many of these items relate to environmental legislation, education, and tax reform. Law firm materials include papers relating to Smith's activities in civil rights, the 1963 Speaker Ban Law case, and academic freedom and freedom of speech in general, but there are only a small number of items about his defense of Junius Irving Scales. There are also materials relating to Smith's participation in professional organizations, including the American Bar Association, the North Carolina Bar Association, and the North Carolina Advisory Committee to the United States Commission on Civil Rights, and in civic and religious organizations, especially the Greensboro Chamber of Commerce and the Methodist Church. Also included are writings; items relating to his helping Estonia in its legal preparations for self-governance after the break-up of the Soviet Union; World War II materials relating to Smith's service in the United States Navy as a bomb disposal officer; papers from Robeson County, N.C., schools and the University of North Carolina documenting school life and alumni activities; and personal papers, including family correspondence and financial materials.
