伯特・T・康布斯
Bert Combs

context: zh_tw: 康布斯生於克萊縣，出身貧寒但學習成績優異，從肯塔基大學獲得法學學位後在普勒斯頓開設了律師事務所。第二次世界大戰期間，他負責對多名日本戰犯提出起訴，並因此獲得勳獎，然後返回肯塔基州繼續從事法律工作。1951 年，州長勞倫斯・韋瑟比任命他擔任肯塔基州上訴法院法官，同年他又參加該職位競選，戰勝前州長兼法官西米恩・S・威利斯贏得 8 年任期。1955 年州長選舉時，肯塔基州的民主黨人已分裂成兩個派系，其中一個派系的領導人厄爾・C・克萊門茨選擇康布斯作為候選人，在初選中對抗另一派系領袖 A・B・“哈皮”・錢德勒。康布斯演講技巧欠佳，並且又過分坦承，因此在選舉中十分被動，而信誓旦旦不會加稅的錢德勒當選後面對財政上的困境，還是不得不違背自己的承諾，他的聲譽也因此受到影響，反過來康布斯之前的坦承就成為選民眼中勇氣和誠實的典範。在這樣的情況下，康布斯於 1959 年再度參選州長併成功勝出。新州長上任後不久，肯塔基州通過了 3% 的消費稅法案，用來向州內退伍軍人支付獎金。如果單是這一需要，1% 的消費稅就已足夠，所以康布斯用多餘的收入來制定一系列的改革，例如擴充套件州內的高速公路和州立公園系統，還把許多資金投入教育事業。
en: Combs rose from poverty in his native Clay County to obtain a law degree from the University of Kentucky and open a law practice in Prestonsburg. He was decorated for prosecuting Japanese war criminals before military tribunals following World War II, then returned to Kentucky and his law practice. In 1951, Governor Lawrence Wetherby appointed him to fill a vacancy on the Kentucky Court of Appeals. Later that year, he was elected to a full term on the court, defeating former governor and judge Simeon S. Willis. Kentucky's Democratic Party had split into two factions by 1955 when Earle C. Clements, the leader of one faction, chose Combs to challenge former governor and U.S. Senator A. B. "Happy" Chandler, who headed the other, in the upcoming gubernatorial primary.

en: The Combs family is one of the oldest European families in the United States. Archdale Combs ~1641-1684 born in Soulbury, Buckinghamshire, England, the family patriarch, arrived in Stafford County, British Colonial America circa 1662, and by circa 1778 Archdale's great-grandson John Combs began his trek westward from Frederick County, Virginia into Wilkes County, North Carolina then into Hawkins County, Tennessee before making his way into Clay County, Kentucky via the Cumberland Gap. He came with his 8 sons Mason, Willian, Nicholas, John, Henry Harrison, Biram & George. Bert descends from John, one of the eight Combs brother's son John "Jack" Combs.Bert Combs was born in the Town Branch section of Manchester, Kentucky on August 13, 1911; he was one of seven children of Stephen Gibson and Martha (Jones) Combs. Combs's father Stephen, a part-time logger and farmer, was active in local politics, despite being a Democrat in a county where a large majority of residents were Republicans. His mother was a teacher, and she impressed upon her children the importance of a good education. Bert's first school was the two-room Beech Creek grade school. When he reached the seventh grade, his parents sent him and his sister to Oneida Baptist Institute in nearby Oneida because its school term was 8 to 9 months long, as opposed to the 5- to 6-month terms at Beech Creek. Later, Combs and his sister began riding a donkey every day to Clay County High School. Combs excelled academically and skipped some grades, graduating as valedictorian of his class in 1927 at age 15.Unable to afford college tuition, Combs worked at a local drug store and did small jobs for various residents of his community. In 1929, his mother arranged for him to work at a coal company in Williamsburg and attend Cumberland College (then a junior college). The coal company job did not materialize, but Combs was able to afford three semesters at Cumberland by sweeping floors and firing furnaces in campus buildings. In mid-1930, he began working as a clerk for the state highway department. This was one of several patronage jobs that were usually awarded by the governor, but the Democratically-controlled state legislature had stripped Republican Governor Flem D. Sampson of his statutory appointment powers, giving them instead to a three-man highway commission composed of Democratic Lieutenant Governor James Breathitt, Democratic Highway Commissioner Ben Johnson, and Dan Talbott. This allowed Combs, a Democrat, to secure the position.Combs worked for the highway department for three years in order to earn enough money to attend the University of Kentucky College of Law in Lexington. While at the university, he was managing editor of the Kentucky Law Journal. In 1937 he graduated second in his class, earning a Bachelor of Laws degree and qualifying for the Order of the Coif, a national honor society for the top ten percent of graduating law students. He was admitted to the bar, and returned to Manchester to begin practicing law. It was also in 1937 that Combs married Mabel Hall, with whom he had two children, Lois Ann Combs and Thomas "Tommy" George Combs.
