The trip followed Assembly approval of a resolution seeking accelerated Christian pressure on Congressmen to force the bill out of committee and onto the floor of the House of Representatives for debate. J. Irwin Miller, outgoing NCC president, (third from right, front row) greets Christian Methodist Episcopal Bishop B. Julian Smith of Chicago and other travelers on their return to Philadelphia. Also welcoming the returning group (second from left) was Dr. Robert W. Spike, executive director of the NCC’s Commission on Religion and Race. Next to Bishop Smith, a vice chairman of the race commission, is Dr. Anna Arnold Hedgeman, special projects coordinator for the commission, and to her right is Dr. R.H. Edwin Espy, NCC general secretary. Credit Must Read: RELIGIOUS NEWS SERVICE PHOTO (1-P-12B-63-NBM)

KING SELMA, Ala. -- Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., is confronted by a white segregationist outside the Dallas County Court House in Selma, Ala. The man later punched and kicked the noted Negro integration leader as he registered at a previously segregated hotel. The attacker was James Robinson, 26, of Birmingham, Ala., a member of the segregationist National States Rights Party. Police quickly seized Mr. Robinson and charged him with assault and disturbing the peace. Dr. King said later he was not hurt by the attack, suffering only a headache. The 1964 Nobel Peace Prize winner and leading advocate of the non-violent movement against discrimination was in Selma to assist a voter registration drive.
