McMILLEN* University of Southern Mississippi JLt is one of the ironies of southern history that Hoxie and Little Rock, Arkansas, have become synonyms for white resistance to desegregation in the era of the "Second Reconstruction." In May 1954 when the Supreme Court handed down its decision in the School Segregation Cases, few suspected that in the troubled years ahead Arkansas would provide Deep South intransigents with the battle cry "Remember Little Rock"- a slogan that recalled for some segregationists the invocation of long-dead patriots who re- membered the Alamo. Indeed, Arkansas'spre-eminent stature among the defiant states in the first decade of desegregation is as undeserved as it was unexpected.

December 21, 1958 600 Friends Honor Rep. Brooks Hays 127 Ninth
THEO SOMMERKAMP. editorial assistant 127 Ninth A.,.nue, North - Nalh.,ille, T.nn..... December 21, 1958 600 Friends Honor Rep. Brooks Hays By Caspar Nannes HASIIINGTON, D. C.--(BP)--More than 600 friends representing all shades of political affiliation and religious adherence paid tribute here to Rep. Brooks Hays, Democrat of Arkansas, at the Willa:rd Hotel. The dinner was given for I~ys on his leaving Congress after serving 16 years as representative from the fifth district of Arkansas. It was tendered against a background of headlines today predicting a bitter wrangle in the next Congress over I~ys's defeat by Dr. Dale Alford of Little Rock, Ark., in the Nov. 4 election. A special house election committee a few hours before recommended that Dr. Alford be kept from taking his seat on Jan. 7 until charges of irregu larities in the election, won by a last minute write-in campaign, be investigated. But speakers at the dinner dwelt more upon the contributionsl~ys, president of the Southern Baptist Convention, made to Congress and the nation rather than upon the pending political squabble. Clarence W. Cranford, pastor of Calvary Baptist Church here and a former president of the American Baptist Convention, keynoted the evening's theme by declaring in his invocation "He pray for all men who have to make a choice between principle and political expediency. 11 Rep. Hays, he said, chose the former course and lost. Telegrams from Vice President Nixon, Democratic 1952 and 1956 ~esidential Candidate Adlai Stevenson, and Sen. John F. Kennedy, Democrat of Massachusetts, among others emphasized the loss to the nation in lays's defeat.

Trimble in Arkansas’s third congressional district in 1966. Much of the historiography addressing this election largely neglects the historic significance of Hammerschmidt’s successful campaign and the factors contributing to his victory. Instead, historians primarily write about the election of Republican Winthrop Rockefeller to the governor’s office that year.

Twelve Elections That Shaped a Century I Tawdry Populism, Timid Progressivism, 1900-1930
Arkansas Politics in the 20th Century: Twelve Elections That Shaped a Century I Tawdry Populism, Timid Progressivism, 1900-1930 One-gallus Democracy Not with a whimper but a bellow did the 20th century begin in Arkansas. The people’s first political act in the new century was to install in the governor’s office, for six long years, a politician who was described in the most graphic of many colorful epigrams as “a carrot-headed, red-faced, loud-mouthed, strong-limbed, ox-driving mountaineer lawyer that has come to Little Rock to get a reputation — a friend of the fellow who brews forty-rod bug juice back in the mountains.”1 He was the Tribune of the Haybinders, the Wild Ass of the Ozarks, Karl Marx for the Hillbillies, the Stormy Petrel, Messiah of the Rednecks, and King of the Cockleburs. Jeff Davis talked a better populism than he practiced. In three terms, 14 years overall in statewide office, Davis did not leave an indelible mark on the government or the quality of life of the working people whom he extolled and inspired, but he dominated the state thoroughly for 1 This quotation from the Helena Weekly World appears in slightly varied forms in numerous accounts of Davis's yers. It appeared in the newspaper in the spring of 1899 and appears in John Gould Fletcher, Arkansas (Chapel Hill, NC: University of North Carolina Press, 1947) p. 2. This version, which includes the phrase "that has come to Little Rock to get a reputation" appears in Raymond Arsenault, The Wild Ass of the Ozarks: Jeff Davis and the Social Bases of Southern Politics (Philadelphia: Temple University Press, 1984), p.

The David and Barbara Pryor Center for Arkansas Oral and Visual History
The David and Barbara Pryor Center for Arkansas Oral and Visual History University of Arkansas 1 East Center Street Fayetteville, AR 72701 (479) 575-6829 Arkansas Memories Project Parker Westbrook Interviewed by Scott Lunsford September 22, 2011 Little Rock, Arkansas, Arkansas Copyright 2011 Board of Trustees of the University of Arkansas. All rights reserved. Objective Oral history is a collection of an individual's memories and opinions. As such, it is subject to the innate fallibility of memory and is susceptible to inaccuracy. All researchers using these interviews should be aware of this reality and are encouraged to seek corroborating documentation when using any oral history interview. The Pryor Center's objective is to collect audio and video recordings of interviews along with scanned images of family photographs and documents. These donated materials are carefully preserved, catalogued, and deposited in the Special Collections Department, University of Arkansas Libraries, Fayetteville. The transcripts, audio files, video highlight clips, and photographs are made available on the Pryor Center Web site at http://pryorcenter.uark.edu. The Pryor Center recommends that researchers utilize the audio recordings and highlight clips, in addition to the transcripts, to enhance their connection with the interviewee. Transcript Methodology The Pryor Center recognizes that we cannot reproduce the spoken word in a written document; however, we strive to produce a transcript that represents the characteristics and unique qualities of the interviewee's speech pattern, style of speech, regional dialect, and personality. For the first twenty minutes of the interview, we attempt to transcribe verbatim all words and utterances that are spoken, such as uhs and ahs, false starts, and repetitions.
