Description: Fifty Years of Shame Author: [Mullins, Eustace] Title: Fifty Years of Shame Publication: Richmond: Information Associates, Inc., [1966] Description: An uncommon Eustace Mullins item written under the auspices of the Virginia Democracy Commission, in which Mullins decries the “Byrd machine” run by long-time Virginia Senator Harry Byrd for much of the 20th century: “For fifty years, Old Harry has ruled Virginia as a subjugated fiefdom, with himself as Gauleiter for New York bankers who exploited the state and its people.” He describes Byrd's nepotism, anti-populism, “Socialist bureaucracy,” and his relationship with the bankers before outlining his counter-Byrd program, which includes a national divided, the dissolution of the CIA and FBI, the declaration of martial law in riot and high crime areas, the use of the military to put down Communist infiltration, and a “restoration of the government of Virginia to the people of Virginia.” Mullins' critique appears, in part, to be personal, as he references a drunk driving accident involving Byrd associate. H. H. Markley, and two-year-old, Dorothy Mullins, whose compensation was minimal due to alleged threats against the child’s parents by the Byrd machine. He also describes his own harassment by a Byrd judge after suing a journalist for calling him “subversive.” A somewhat surprising screed against a conservative whose segregationist policies Mullins would have sympathized with, but who in all other respects did not align with Mullins’ anti-Semitic, populist beliefs.
