Description:
Attempts to give draft card to NCC: James D. Rubins, 21, a student at Hope
College, Holland, Mich., addresses the General Assembly of the National
Council of Churches in Detroit. He sought to present his Selective Service
card to the delegates, to be held "in trust." Mr. Rubins, a member of the
Reformed Church in America, asked the NCC to put "action behind a policy
position backing religious obedience and civil disobedience." Assembly
delegates voted down Mr. Rubins attempt to surrender his draft card.
