- 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.
