Title: UPCUSA Civil Rights demonstration.
Description: New York--A peaceful pre-Independence Day demonstration for racial equality was held by some 500 clergymen and members of the United Presbyterian Church in the U.S.A. The placard-carrying demonstrators marched for 45 minutes in a City Hall Plaza area, then heard addresses by Mayor Robert F. Wagner, center, and Dr. W. Eugene Houston, left, a Harlem pastor who heads the presbytery's new commission on religion and race. The Mayor called for enactment of President Kennedy's civil rights proposals and pledged continuing efforts toward greater racial equality in New York City. Dr. Houston warned against the city "dragging its feet"on integration and called for acceleration of school desegregation.

Title: Civil rights demonstrators march at fair.
Description: Text transcribed from caption: PC-30917 CIVIL RIGHTS DEMONSTRATORS MARCH AT FAIR NEW YORK -- Opening day of the New York World’s Fair featured both organized pomp and ceremony and demands for civil rights by members of the Congress of Racial Equality. Most fairgoers gave picket lines brief attention, though demonstrations at some pavilions drew crowds as police broke up disturbances and made arrests. Here, members of the Boston, Mass., chapter of CORE march in the shadow of the Unisphere, the fair’s symbol. None of the eight religious pavilions at the exposition was picketed and few, if any, clergymen were involved in the demonstrations. Credit Must Read: RELIGIOUS NEWS SERVICE PHOTO (RNS-NY-4D-64-NBM)

Title: Hits abortion's genocidal aspects.
Description: Text transcribed from caption: PC-46497 HITS ABORTION’S GENOCIDAL ASPECTS NEW YORK -- Comedian-turned-social-activist Dick Gregory tells a gathering of youthful right-to-life leaders in New York that he opposes abortion because of its coercive and genocidal aspects. Speaking during the third annual “Thanksgiving for Life” Convention sponsored by the National Youth Pro-Life Coalition, a non-sectarian, non-partisan group working for “positive alternatives” to abortion, war, capital punishment, euthanasia, compulsory sterilization and “other forms of violence,” Mr. Gregory said he fully supports the right to life of every human being “from conception to natural death.” He added that he “unequivocally” endorses a “total human life amendment to the U.S. Constitution that would promote the value and dignity of every human life.” The 42-year-old father of 10 is currently involved in bringing attention to the world food shortage, particularly in Africa. He termed efforts toward population control the work of the wealthy elite seeking to exploit natural resources by limiting births. Credit Must Read: RELIGIOUS NEWS SERVICE PHOTO (CS-NY-12A-74-DS)

Title: Seminarians' racial Christmas card.
Description: Text transcribed from caption: PC-31952 SEMINARIANS’ RACIAL CHRISTMAS CARD ST. PAUL, Minn. -- This unusual Christmas card was a result of the involvement of a group of seminarians in a racial justice project last summer in Mississippi. The greeting card reproduces a photo of a Negro boy in a Harlem slum. Participating in the racial project were about 100 students preparing for the priesthood at Nazareth Hall, minor seminary of the St. Paul archdiocese, in suburban Arden Hills. As a result of their work they were determined to have a “relevant” message dealing with racial justice on one of the Christmas card they prepare and sell annually. The card reads: “Christ is here. Go to meet Him. He is here…in His poor, in the afflicted, in the little ones, in those thirsting for justice, in His least brethren, in the crucified. Embrace Him.” Credit Must Read: RELIGIOUS NEWS SERVICE PHOTO (WT-MINN-12D-64-NAB)
