- Description
- Text transcribed from caption: PC-30659 PICKETS PROTEST 'THE DEPUTY' NEW YORK -- Pickets protesting the production of "The Deputy" carry their signs near the Brooks Atkinson Theater in New York. The play which charges Pope Pius XII with failure to speak out against the Nazi extermination of the Jews was picketed by this "Ad Hoc Committee," predominantly Catholic. Three other sets of pickets appeared: a unit of the Veterans of Foreign Wars, which also protested the characterization of the Pope; a small group which supported Herman Shumlin producer-director of the controversial play; and 12 Swastika'd troopers of the American Nazi Party, who defended the Hitler regime by claiming the death of 6 millions was a "great lie." The Ad Hoc Committee announced it would picket daily throughout the run of the play. Credit Must Read: RELIGIOUS NEWS SERVICE PHOTO (BB-NY-2D-64-W)
