While denouncing the Catholics for alleged interference with the state, their Protestant denomina- Dons Tiave railed up an army of F ar iate.”° miP ° 8e WU UP ° n t he 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 UB28 ” » However in North Carolina, ■Democratic gubernatorial candi¬ date Terry Sanford wound up an unscheduled campaign tour of the mountain counties with the ex-i pressed feeling that anthGatho- Ift sentiment towahd F.
