As Earl Long Told the Reporters When Accused of Dating a New Orleans Strip Tease Dancer.

"It's a damned lie!"

 "24-Jul 1956 Democratic gubernatorial candidate Jim Snoddy, speaking at a political rally in Newport, attacked Governor Faubus for not maintaining segregation at the University of Arkansas Medical Center at Little Rock." Smith's Alternative Arkansas History. 

I don't question Dr. Smith. I'm sure that some newspaper reported this, but no Snoddy would do or say anything racist and certainly not the nephew of Dial Pearl Estelle Snoddy Prim and the Grandfather of Marianne Pratt Guhman, both bleeding hearts and champions of the civil rights of all.
