Protestant churches that pictured
the Negro as virtually u chimpan-

lie Church as an evil octopus.
While denouncing the Catholics
for alleged interference with the
state, their Protestant denomina-

Using different words to say
the same thing, Dr. Jackson in his
annual address before delegates of
the 5,000,oon member church
group meeting in Philadelphia’s
convention hall said:
“Let us therefore study the
issues of the campaign carefully,
and above all, let us form our con¬
clusions based on principles and
not on prejudices.”
“We must not condemn any man
because of his religion or because
of the region or geographical terri¬
tory in which he lives. Prejudice
of religion and prejudice of region
are just as sinful as prejudice of
race.’*
Meanwhile, a South Carolina
Negro leader criticized Bishop
Frank Madison Reid of the Afri¬
can Methodist Episcopal Church
for opposing the candidacy of Ken- J
nedy because the Massachusetts |
Democrat is a Catholic.
John H. McCray of Columbia,
chairman of the South Carolina
Progressive Democrats, said Negro
citizens “know they can least af¬
ford to censure other who would
deny them certain rights and privi¬
leges and simultaneously demand
that guaranteed freedom be denied
to any group or class of people.”
In a speech in Columbia earlier
Bishop Reid told his audience to
register and vote to save America
-from “dictation from Rome.”
1 Southern white Baptists appear¬
ed to be almost unanimous in their
opposition to Kennedy on religious
grounds.
f ( Tfie Carolina Baptist Assn, re¬
cently went on record “against
putting any man in the chief ex¬
ecutive office of this great United
States whose first allegiance is to
a foreign power.”
Arkansas Baptist state con-
* 'vention disclosed plans for a state-
+ fwide campaign against election of
4 if. Kennedy.
1 j Dr. W. O. Vaught, pastor of
\ jLittle Rock's Immanuel Baptist
Church, said:
' “We cannot turn our govern¬
ment over to a Catholic President
who could be influenced by the
Pope and by the power of the
Catjiolie hierachy.”
In Nashville two Southern
churchmen said that preachers and
ministers in their denomination'
t will use their pulpits to oppose
Senator Kennedy.
They are Dr. Ramsey Pollard
president of the Southern Baptist
Convention and B. C. Goodpasture,
editor of the Church of Christ
publication, Gospel Advocate.
'[ Dr. Pollard, of Memphis,' presi¬
dent of the 9-million-member all-
white Southern Baptist Conven¬
tion ’aid:
“Since the Roman Catholic
Church is not only a church but
a political entity, we feel we are
justified in making ah attack upon
Mr, Kennedy on that basis.”
In Wetumpka, Ala., a state Bap-
: tist leader questioned whether a
“loyal son” of the Roman Catho¬
lic Church “can be other than
obedient to the church when the
church exercises totalitarian auth¬
ority.”
Dr. A. Hamilton Reid is execu¬
tive secretary of the Alabama
Baptist Convention.
Opinion differed on whether re¬
ligious bigotry in connection with
the campaign was on the rise or
diminishing.
“The circulation of rabily anti-
Catholic material already is many
times greater than we’ve ever seen
it,” said Bruce L. Feiknor, execu¬
tive director of the Fair Cam¬
paign Practices Committee.
“We think at this point there is
a substantial danrer that the cam¬
paign in 1960 will be dittler on the
religious issue than it was ip

“I found evidence everywhere
that the fervor of anti-Catholic

He noted that State Rep. T.
T. Fields of Union parish, one
of the supporters and advoeat-
ors'of the punitive legislation,
in a recent statement admitt¬
ed that he “deplored the se¬
verity of the law and said it
was not his intention that it
would be applied retroactive-

MTs. Hymes urged citizens not
to remain, .silent when they hear
“bigoted reasoning” but to “oppose
it directly for the evil it is.”
Kennedy brainstrusters mean¬
have taken cognizance of the
religious issue.
In Washington Kennedy enlisted
a lay Protestant leader to help
the problem.

printed $100 million for emergency
aid to the Congo, but we must do
more than merely react to crises
as they arise. We must promul¬
gate a long term program of as¬
sistance to enable the nations of
Africa to plan intelligently for th’e
orderly and systematic growth of
their economies.”
Specifically, Governor Furcolo’s
plan entails the adoption by Con¬
gress of a 10-year African Deve¬
lopment Program With an annual
appropriation of $500 million
‘‘with a progressive increase ns
the absorptive capacities of the
African nations expand.”
Such a program, he believes,
would commit the United States
to work with the free states of the
African continent both directly and
through the United Nations to
build and diversify their econo¬
mies; to expand and modernize
their educational plants; and to
train their peoples in the skills
necessary to run a modern socle-

African engineers, teachers, tech¬

that in’1950iChB United States had
less than 1,200 African students
from all of sub-Saharan Africa.
“The President,” he urged,
“should appoint n committee com¬
posed of leading university presi¬
dents and foundation heads to set.
up an African Education Fund
which would provide educational
opportunities in this country for ,
at least 10,000 African students a j
