Speaking in the Rose Garden outside his White House office, the chief executive said that “no group of Christians has a greater responsibility in civil rights than Southern Baptists.” Members of the Southern Baptist Convention, he said, “are part of the power structure in many communities of our land,” and he called for the clergy’s aid in securing Congressional passage of rights legislation. More than 150 clergymen and lay leaders of a SBC seminar on Christian leadership heard Mr. Johnson’s appeal. Credit Must Read: RELIGIOUS NEWS SERVICE PHOTO (W-WN-3D-64-2)
