- Harry_Darby abstract "Harry Darby (January 23, 1895 – January 17, 1987) was an American politician from Kansas. Born in Kansas City, Kansas, he graduated from the University of Illinois, and served in the United States Army during the World War I, rising to the rank of captain. After the war he became successful in business ventures in several different fields including insurance, steel, railroads, utilities and banking. He served on the Kansas State Highway Commission from 1933 to 1937. During World War II he established the Darby Steel Corporation in the West Bottoms at Kansas City, Kansas. The plant built most of the Landing craft tank's (LCT's) that were used in various amphibious invasions. The plant built one craft a day and floated them more than 1,000 miles down the Missouri and Mississippi Rivers to New Orleans, Louisiana prompting their "Prairie Ships" nickname. Darby's plant at the mouth of Kansas River could hold 8 135í LCTs and 16 Landing Craft Mechanized (LCM)s in various stages of construction. Darby served as the Republican National Committeeman for Kansas from the 1940 National Convention to early 1964, when he resigned the position. On December 2, 1949, He was appointed to fill a United States Senate seat to replace Clyde M. Reed (who had died November 8) by Governor Frank Carlson, despite the fact that his only prior government experience was four years on the state highway commission. As a senator, Darby was a friend of General Dwight D. Eisenhower, a fellow Kansan. He kept his seat until November 28, 1950, when he was succeeded by Frank Carlson, the very man who had appointed him to the seat. Darby returned to Kansas City and lived there until his death. He was buried in Highland Park Cemetery in Kansas City. Interstate 635 (Kansas–Missouri) is named the Harry Darby Memorial Highway for him in both Kansas and Missouri.".
