In 1948 Kiser successfully stood for election to the state House of Representatives (Democratic ticket) and was returned for a total of ten terms. Kiser's conservaï¿½tive stance won him the popular soubriquet of \"Watchdog of the Assembly.ï¿½ These papers reflect Kiserï¿½s legislative career, for the most part, and consist of correspondence, bills, resolutions, reports, miscellaneous publications, and newspaper clippings. The newspaper clippings are mounted in 8 scrapbooks filed in the 2 flat boxes.    This collection includes the following series: Personal Papers (PC.1792.1-2); Political Papers (PC.1792.3-4); Commission on the Reorganization of State Government (PC.1792.5-7); Legislative Papers (PC.1792.8-24); Legislative Scrapbooks (PC.1792.25-26).    Kiser was the son of Edwin and Amy Florence (Butner) Kiser of King, Stokes County. He was educated in the King High School (Stokes County, N.C.), Guilford College, Appalachian State Teachers College, the University of North Carolina, and Columbia University. Upon his discharge from the U.S. Army (as a first lieutenant) at the end of World War I, Kiser followed a career in public education both as teacher and principal from 1919 to 1959 in Guilford, Montgomery, and Scotland counties, and simultaneously successfully followed the occupation of a farmer. With reference to the latter, Kiser planted cotton and tobacco and raised beeves, but eventually diversified by establishing both a nursery business and an apiary at the farm after World War II.    As indicated above, in 1948 Kiser first stood for election to the state House of Representatives and was returned for a total of ten terms. Frequently, he was returned without opposition. During the period, he was in every session a member of the House Committees on Higher Education and Education, serving the latter as vice-chairman in 1959, 1963, and 1967, and as chairman in 1965. For seven of his ten terms, Kiser sat on the powerful Appropriations Committee and for four sessions on the Finance Committee. With his strong interest in education issues, commitment to improved salaries for teachers, and dedication to a conservative fiscal policy, this combination of committee appointments was a very attractive one to Kiser. Occasionally chaffed for his outspoken opposition to legislative proposals that he felt challenged or threatened traditional Jeffersonian-democratic positions, thus earning his title of \"Watchdog of the Assembly\".    Kiser's opposition to the fiscal policies of Governor Hodges eventually led to a break with the governor. In 1957 he was one of the architects of the \"Legislative Program for Progress\" designed to counter Governor Hodges' proposal for greater local and less state support for public education, and to increase teachers' salaries by nearly 20% rather than the approximately 107 recommended by the administration. By the next session, 1959, Kiser was a pivotal force in the election of a House Speaker (Addison Hewlett) who was expected to favor a strong legislative program independent of executive influence. Similarly, Kiser, though a strong supporter of Governor Sanford (formerly one of Kiser's students) eventually disagreed with him in 1961 over the question of a sales tax on food in support of \"A Brighter Day for Our Children\", rather than an increase in taxes on such items as tobacco, liquor, and soft drinks. The disagreement did not constitute a breach, and both joined forces in the 1963 extraordinary session of the Assembly and in the succeeding campaign to secure the constitutional amendment called \"The Little Fed\" plan. This plan ensured periodic legislative reapportionment based on the census of the population and embodied the \"One Man One Vote\" principle."},{"label":"Digital Characteristics","value":"15 pages"},{"label":"Format","value":["Finding aids"]},{"label":"Rights","value":"The SA of NC considers this item in the public domain by U.S. law but responsibility for permissions rests with researchers."},{"label":"Source Collections","value":["Roger C.
