Ernest S. Clements

Ernest S. Clements was a seemingly unlikely member of the Long political faction in Louisiana in a career which spanned thirtyeight years from the 1930s to the 1970s. The pious, introverted Clements did not fit the public image of the noholdsbarred, extroverted Long man. William J. Bill Dodd, a longtime observer of Louisiana politics and a Clements friend, described him as zealous and a fine orator in the oldschool style . . . so humorless, straitlaced, and selfrighteous that none of us, from Earl on down to the soundtruck drivers, could keep from playing tricks on him.
