Last Word. Walker found instant support. "It is an excellent document," said Jay Miller, executive director of the American Civil Liberties Union's Illinois division. Wrote Chicago Daily News Columnist Mike Royko: "Those policemen who did not bash private citizens showed great restraint.

The farm was on the verge of bankruptcy and his works were not selling when, one day in 1960, a student walked into an art class he was teaching at a New Brunswick community center with a plaster-impregnated bandage marketed by the local pharmaceutical company, Johnson & Johnson.
