office and on the front steps of the Capitol Building at that
time have been in his personal possession since 1948. He
introduced the pictures, and from the one made on the front
steps of the Capitol Building, he identified Daisy Bates, State
President of the National Association of the Advancement of
Colored People for a number of years, as the person standing
immediately next to Wallace; he also identified L. C. Bates,
husband of Daisy Bates, and a white man on Wallace's right ‘a
called Ladislav or "Laddie¥#Ushkarsky, MesHELL testified that
Daisy Bates left "arm in arm" with Wallace when they retired
from his office inside the Capitol to the front steps. This
bit of testimony belies the assertion that Daisy Bates was at
the Capitol that day merely as a reporter for her husband's
newspaper, Wallace wanted to make a speech on the front steps
of the Capitol, but Mr, Hall denied him that privilege as
contrary to State law. Mr. Hall also introduced a newspaper
Clipping from the Arkansas Gazette dated October 22, 1954, where-
in it recited an account of a meeting of the NAACP at Mount ———
Zion Baptist Church, Little Rock; it stated that Gloster B.
Current, Vernon McDaniel, Daisy Bates, and others were present,
Mr. Hall further testified that the names of Daisy Bates,
L. C, Bates, and Laddie Pushkarsky appeared on the petition of
electors to place the name of Henry Wallace on the ballot.
A newspaper article from the Times Dispatch entitled,
"Inter-racial Breakfast" was introduced by Mr, Hall, which
stated that Wallace attended a breakfast for Negroes and Whites
at the home of a Little Rock supporter, Leonard Farmer, here-
after identified as then and now, a communist. |
