Klansman Won't Admit Dynamite Plan
Mississippi barber Louis A. Disalvo refused to answer before the House Un-American Activities Committee about suggesting to Ku Klux Klansmen the bombing of the 1964 Lady Bird Special campaign train. He invoked the Fifth Amendment on forming a firing squad and scaring a Klan unit, with testimony noting his Klan ties and gun license purchases. The committee considered contempt citations for Imperial Wizard Robert M. Shelton and six other officials, to be sent to Justice for possible prosecution.
