Dale made the comments in call- ins for an end to piecemeal leaks" from government sources on the Parker lynching. "If the iEovernment has turned over all its evidence to Gov. Cole man, then it ought to stop these piecemeal leaks and not try the case in the newspapers." he said. tie said he could not condone the purported detail of the FBI report on the case given to the press by "authoritative govern ment sources." The sources said the evidence! contained the names of Parker's killers and a description of a farm yard meeting where the raid al legedly was planned.
