During the Louisiana gubernatorial run-off of 1964, the
segregationists rallied behind John McKeithen to defeat former
New Orleans Mayor DeLesseps S. "Chep" Morrison. Guy Banister
even took out a full-page ad to denounce Morrison (New Orleans
Times-Picayune; January 10, 1964; S1-P26) The ad consists
mostly of a collage of newpaper headlines relating to the police
scandals of the 1950's, which found Banister and Morrison on
opposite sides. WGB also threw in a few handy facts about
"white flight" and racial bloc voting. The ad was signed "W. Guy
Banister, 531 Lafayette Steet."
