- Description
- Text transcribed from caption: P-29689 CHURCH PICKETED IN HOUSTON HOUSTON, Tex. -- An “all-out” picketing campaign against the 3,600-member all-white First Baptist church in Houston, Texas, was launched by the Congress for Racial Equality. The pastor of the church is Dr. K. Owen White, president of the 10-million-member Southern Baptist Convention. Though Negroes have been admitted to worship services, pickets protested the denial of six membership applications. IN a statement issued after the first application was refused, Dr. White said that in view of existing racial tensions it was believed wise to continue present membership policies.
