He was mayor of Boise for four years and a one-term United States Senator, serving from 1933 to 1939. Early life and careerBorn in Jonesboro, Louisiana, Pope graduated from Louisiana Industrial Institute (now Louisiana Tech University) in Ruston in 1906 and from the University of Chicago Law School in 1909 where he became a member of the Delta Chi Fraternity. He was admitted to the bar then moved west to Idaho to practice law in Boise, and served as city attorney, assistant attorney general of Idaho, and a member of the board of education of Boise. Pope was mayor of Boise from 1929 to 1933. United States SenateHe was elected as a Democrat to the United States Senate in 1932, defeating Republican incumbent John W. Thomas of Gooding. From 1934-36, Pope was a member of the Nye Committee. In 1938, he was defeated for renomination in the Democratic primary by Congressman D. Worth Clark of Pocatello,[2][3][4] who went on to win the general election. Pope was a stalwart of the Roosevelt administration and the New Deal,[2][5][6] and it was suggested that Idaho's senior senator William Borah, the dean of the U.S. Senate, felt upstaged at times and had a hand in Pope's loss to the more conservative Clark in the August primary.[4]
After CongressIn 1939, Pope was appointed a director of the Tennessee Valley Authority by President Roosevelt and served in that capacity until 1951. He continued to practice law and serve on several boards in Tennessee after that.[8] Pope relocated to Alexandria, Virginia, in 1963 and died there at age 81 in 1966.[8] He and his wife, Pauline Ruth Horn Pope (1887–1957),[9] are buried in Lynnhurst Cemetery in Knoxville, Tennessee. They had two sons, Ross P. Pope and George A. Pope.[1] References{{Bioguide}}1. ^1 {{cite news|url=https://news.google.com/newspapers?id=xXtfAAAAIBAJ&sjid=0C8MAAAAIBAJ&pg=1425,1686288|newspaper=Lewiston Morning Tribune|location=Idaho|last=Hanrahan|first=Mrs. R.E.|title=Mrs. Pope, wife of Idaho senator, devotes time to two sons and little to Capitol society affairs|date=October 27, 1935|page=7}} 2. ^1 {{cite news |url=https://news.google.com/newspapers?id=QuY-AAAAIBAJ&sjid=IU0MAAAAIBAJ&pg=5965%2C1697581 |newspaper=Tuscaloosa News |location=Alabama |agency=Associated Press |title=New Deal trails in Idaho test as Pope loses |date=August 10, 1938|page=1 }} 3. ^{{cite news|url=https://news.google.com/newspapers?id=kdMsAAAAIBAJ&sjid=zh8EAAAAIBAJ&pg=1822%2C5554658 |newspaper=Bend Bulletin |location=Oregon |title=Idaho chiefs of new deal uneasy |agency=United Press |date=April 12, 1938 |page=1}} 4. ^1 {{cite news |url=https://news.google.com/newspapers?id=kd9PAAAAIBAJ&sjid=wVQDAAAAIBAJ&pg=4896%2C4499362 |newspaper=St. Petersburg Independent |location=Florida |last=Dutcher |first=Rodney |title=Pope defeat credited to ire of Borah |date=August 19, 1938 |page=5A }} 5. ^{{cite news |url=https://news.google.com/newspapers?id=hUksAAAAIBAJ&sjid=scoEAAAAIBAJ&pg=2664%2C2143320 |newspaper=Spartanburg Herald |location=South Carolina |agency=Associated Press |title=Pope defends federal relief |date=November 28, 1934 |page=1 }} 6. ^{{cite news |url=https://news.google.com/newspapers?id=FGYhAAAAIBAJ&sjid=3ocFAAAAIBAJ&pg=3330%2C1544493 |newspaper=Reading Eagle |location=Pennsylvania |title=Senator Pope trailing in hot fight |agency=Associated Press |date=August 10, 1938 |page=1 }} 7. ^{{cite web|url=http://clerk.house.gov/member_info/electionInfo/|publisher=U.S. House of Representatives|title=Office of the Clerk: Election statistics|accessdate=March 11, 2013}} 8. ^1 {{cite news|url=https://news.google.com/newspapers?id=JzpWAAAAIBAJ&sjid=WekDAAAAIBAJ&pg=4976%2C2832054|newspaper=Spokesman-Review|location=Spokane, Washington|agency=Associated Press|title=Ex-Idaho Senator Pope dies at 81|date=January 24, 1966|page=6}} 9. ^{{cite news |url=https://news.google.com/newspapers?id=BdVXAAAAIBAJ&sjid=AfUDAAAAIBAJ&pg=2565%2C6314207 |newspaper=Spokane Daily Chronicle |location=Washington |agency=(photo) |title=Senator Pope takes a look at his home state |date=October 22, 1935 |page=1 }} External links{{CongBio|p000430}}
