"I have not decided whether I sha11 demonstrate
or not. However" my pravers are with those who do. I do
not know whether I can stana Jail without bail" but I
admire those who can. I am not sure that I will be non-
violent if I "hould be attacked for demanding to be treated
with simple human dignity. I certainly hope and pray that
no relative or friend of mine will be shot inthe back as was
Medgar Evers" the NAACP Pield Secretary inJackson, MissiSSippi.
III can vote J I will vote against you" if you fail
to support the President's Civil Rights Program."
A characterization of the Southern Christian

RE: MARCH ON WASHINGTON,
AlJGUST 28, 1963
The July 30, 1963 issue of the Cincinnati Enquirer,
a daily newspaper published in Cincinnati, Ohio, contained
an article on page 32 captioned, "Cincinnati Clergymen Poised
For March on Washington". This article indicated a8 follows:
Reverend Walter Beck, Chairman of the Cincinnati
Council of Churches Special Commission on Religion and Race,
stated his group '. meeting on July 29, 1963, to recruit
clergymen for the March on Washington was a tremendous success.
Reverend Beck indicated that about 300 persons filled the
Carmel Presbyterian Church, 3549 Reading Road, to hear
speakers representing Protestant Clergy, Roman Catholic
laymen, Congress of Racial Equality, and the Lay NegrD Community.
Beck stated that although the meeting stressed
participation in the scheduled ~~rch on Washington, August
28, 1963, that this march was not the prime purpose behind
the special commission.
Beck indicated that the commission was finding
out the identity of people who are interested in making the
march, f~ther that at a meeting to be held on July 30, 1963,
specific plans can be made.
Reverend Beck promised those in attendance
at the meeting that before Norman Hill, a New york
representative of the Congress of Racial Equality, leaves
town, he wwld be able to anaounce some details of the
planned march. Reverend Beck stated, however, that his
commission was interested in passing national legislation,

CHRISTIAN CRUSADE
j r
The July 29, 1963, edition of "The Daily Oklahoman",
an established newspaper published at Oklahoma City, Oklahoma,
contains an article entitled. "Christian Crusader Blasts A-Test
Ban".
- Thearticle lessey:~_sta~~. as follows:.
Billy Jamel'UarJi~~~anlelist. branded the
U.S, .. ~usstan-Brfltish-~st ban agreeme~ as another deceit by
Averell Harriman. Hargis, in making his comments, was speaking
before a rally of approximately one-hundred persons at the Calvary
Tabernacle, 1813 N.W. 2nd Street in Oklahoma City on July 28, 1963.
The rally was held in advance of the Christian Crusade convention
scheduled to be held August 2-4, 1963, at the Skirvfn Hotel"'in
Oklahoma City.
Hargis stated he felt the greatest need in the U.,S.
is a spiritual and patriotical awakening. He claimed the
Communist timetable calls for taking over the U. S. in two years
and it is the business of the church to be in the forefront of
the battle. He stated he still believed we can whip "Communism,
liberalism, internatjonalism, world_government, or what you call
it".
i
I
Hargis stated Harriman"sold out the U.S. once before
and Harriman knows you can not do business with the Communists.
He stated S2 agreements have been made with the-Communists since
Yalta and SO have been broken. Now we're foing to foolishly dis-
aTm while others continue testina. There s no evidence Khrushchev
has become a new man. This deal will enable the Communists to
catch up. We tied our hands and they go on testing."
Hargis said the last free election in the U.S. will be
next year unless a conservative is elected. , He said he did not
care which political party wins in 1964. He predicted a third
U.S. political party would spring up in 1964 1f neither party
nontinated a conservative. He said, "There'll be the biggest
political convention in the history of the u.s. if they don't ,
have a conservative. You know why? Because I'.goinl to help
bring it about." ,

CHRISTIAN CRUSADE
Hargis termed the U.S. Supreme Court decision on
prayer as a "dastardly deed" and said the Bible reading de-
cision 'this year is another ''hit and run decis ion"
Hargis blamed the current racial agitation on the
Communists. He then called for the need of a counter-balance
for what he termed "a liberal group like the NAACP".

The first meeting of the Fifth Annual Christian Crusade
national convention was held at the Skirvin Tower Hotel in Okla-

represented at the first night of the convention, with Texas

The article stated, in part, the following:
"The National Council of Churches and America's parti-
cipatio~ in a test ban treaty came under attack Saturday
by speakers at the Christian Crusade, underway in Oklahoma
City. Also assailed were the United Nations, both politi-
cal parties, and the nation's news media. A Cuban exile
leader challenged the Organi~ation of American States (OAS)
to send armed forces into Cuba, and another speaker former
Major General Edwin Walker, was hailed with calls of 'Walker
for President'.

"Sounding 1ike a candidate fo'rpolitical office,
Walker hit at the Repqblican and Democratic: parties, claiming
they both have 'no choice' platforms.

. "Walker said he's a member of one party, 'the
people's party of America, and I'm sure 7S percent of
the people are in it, too.'
" , What am I doing?' Walker asked, 'I'm propagan-
dizing and agitating.' As the crowd began to applaua, he
asked, 'Do you like it?' and was met with an ovation and
scattered cries of 'Walker for President'."
The Augu~t~ 1963, edition of "The Daily Oklahoman"
reflects that FULT(_)K7 ~EWIS rJR. was a speaker at the Sunday
meeting of the Christian Crusade in Okla:h.omaCity. The article
quoted Lewis as stating the conservatives, "s~lit into little
groups", should uni t-e to "substi1lD a new pres Lderrt in the
White House." He told conservatives to "get rid of schism, nit-
picking, disagreements on little tiny details and fancy theories
(and) get behind a candidate or principle which has the courage
to break the JCennedy family hierarchy."
The article relates that about SSO persons in the
Skirvin Tower attending the convention heard Lewis blast civil
service and foreign service programs, claiming the Kennedy
administration keeps the federal payroll big for vote-getting
purposes. (~)
The article reflects LEWIS endorsed Senator Barry
GoldWater for President and depicted President Kennedy as a
"pleasant, superficial playboy who has no more business being
president than I have being God."
LEWIS was quoted as saying that to fight the inter-
national Communist conspiracy, the average person "can vote
against Mr. JCennedy for re-election."
This article indicated that the Christian Crusade
ended its three-day session on the night of August 4, 1963.

CHRISTIAN CRUSADE (~ " t
The August 3 1963 edition of "The Daily Oklahoman , (
a daily newspa~er published ~t Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, reflect d
an article ent1tlea, "Big Government R,ipped by Welch".
'.
The article stated, in part, '~)te following:
,
"The greatest tragedy of the 20th century is the
increase of 'swollen over-extended' government every-
where, Robert Welch, founder of the John Birch Society,
said Friday night in Oklahoma City. Speaking to 500
persons attending his keynote address of the Christian
Crusade, Welch called 'this tragedy' g~eater than the
Communist menace.

" 'Even when composed of honest and intelligent
individuals, government combines and increases the
stupidity of men. And for a government, the stupid
action, stupid course, is almost always the easiest
and safest course,' he said.
"When asked if the John Birchers supported a
particular candidate for the 1964 presidential election,
Welch said the society has 'no position ever in regard
to politics.' He indicated a majority of the society
, probably would back a conservative candidate.
Concerning the nation's racial'upheavel, Welch
said, "We have a very strong position in that we take
absolutely no position. This matter shOUld be left
up to local communities to handle the federal
government has no right to say what local groups shOUld
do.
"In summing up his 90-minute talk, Welch was
'. applauded when he said as stupid as people can be,
'none of us anywhere can begin to touch governments
when it comes to stupidity. It is the tendency to
increasing, swollen, over-extended government that
constitutes the greatest tragedy of the 20th century ,
Welch said the world's people - except for the commu~ists
'who, if they are truly communists can't be thought of
as human beings in any consideration of humanitarian
qualities' .. are nearly alike."

RE:
MARCH O N WASHIN GTO N
AUGUST 281 1963
on
came up during this conversat1on and ted
had heard that there were several thousand gO ~
o Washington, D.C. on August 28, 19 6 3 , but he doubted that t s
;O Uld accomplish anything since the authorities would not let the
whites demonstrate there on that day due to the planned demonstra-
tions of N egroes. ~compla1ned that the ao-called right-w
leaders and people~ persuasion could not make a speech any
more due to opposition from Communist and leftist groups through-
out the United States but that Communiste~ left-wingers a\ijlies
were permitted to make speeches wherever they wanted to.
mentioned that in his opinion LIN CO LN RO CKWELL1 leader of e
American N azi Party, was a "third grade national soeialist" who
merely has a racket to get money and it is the opinion ot~
that RO CKWELL is subsidized by B
l
na1 Blrith to justify the eXist-
ence of Blnai Blrith in its purported~ht aga1nst racial
discrimination in the United States. stated that he had
no organizational affiliations at presen 1 is only trying to make
a living for himself and his family and could not afford to become
involved inany suspect group for fear of losing the livelihootl
of his family. He further offered the opinion tha t if a large
group of white people did go into Washington on August 28, 19 6 3 ,

Mem orandum of A. Rosen to Mr. Belm ont capt ioned as above dat ed
July 30, 1963, called at t ent ion to possible securit y precaut ions which m ight be placed

\ Vit ht he m at ch on Washingt on, August 2 8, 1963, f rom 10a.m . t o 5 p.m . Purpose of
t hiS m em orandum is t o consider t he suggest ion of t he Laborat ory D ivision t hat som e
Seat of Governm ent Bureau aut om obiles should be dispersed away f rom t he buudlng
t hat any bot t ling up m ay be prevent ed.
The Adm t nlst rat l'Ve D iVision m aint ains 15 Bureau aut om obiles in t he

Any recom m endat ion relat ive't o t he t hree aut bm oblles and six carryalls ~p~;; .. ,
by courier service would, of course, originat e Wit h FUes and COD lUlunicat lons
Of principal concern ,in t his m em orandum are t he 15 rem aining aut om obiles In t he
't court yard area. Our experience has been that t he m ajorit y of t hese aut om obiles are
~~A charged out f or of f lciaJ. use and leave t he court yard area prior t o lOa. m . each day.
Based on Rresent indicat ions of t he act ivit y which wU1 t ake place on August 2 8 In connec.
t ion With q a.e m arch on Washingt on, it does not appear t hat any dispersal of t hese aut o-
m obiles sl}ould be m ade prior t o t heir being placed int o use en t he m orning of Augu$t 2 8
It would seem t hat any congest ion or bot t ling up of t he building would occur, if at all,
lat eI: ,in t he 'day. Accordingly, I t h1D k t he best procedure would be t hat as t hese aut o-
m o~iles are. charged out f or use on t he m orning of August 2 8, inst ruct ions be given t o
