- Text transcribed from caption: PC-30792 CIVIL RIGHTS SUPPORTERS EXPRESS VICTORY HOPES WASHINGTON, D.C. -- A U.S. Senate vote to launch formal debate on the House-passed Civil Rights Bill was received happily by supporters of the legislation. Victory signs, signifying rejection of Southern senators’ attempts to delay debate by subjecting the bill to committee hearings, are made, from left to right, by: Sen. Hubert Humphrey (D.-Minn.) and Sen Philip A. Hart (D.-Mich.), key legislative supporters of the measure, and three prominent Negro civil rights leaders -- the Rev. Ralph Abernathy, Dr. Martin Luther King and the Rev. Fred Shuttlesworth. The Negro clergymen all have been active in integration efforts through the Southern Christian Leadership Conference, headed by Dr. King.
