Invitation
To Graham
Protested
WASHINGTON - Despite the
protests of a few' blacks, a group
of Congressmen and Washing
ton area Protestant clergymen
voted last week to invite the
Rev Dr. Billy Graham to
conduct an evengelistic crusade
here in the spring of 1974.
Noting that "there is some
opposition ” to the Graham
invitation, the Rev. Wesley
Wiley, one of half a dozen blacks
present in the group of about 80
persons, said he personally
supported the Graham crusade
but added that he thought the
action should be postponed until
more support from the black
community could be obtained.
Wiley, who serves as liaison
between the prodominately
white .Southern Baptist Conven
tion and the black National
Baptist Convention, explained
the paucity of support for

he would hardly ever miss a day

voted to curtail the secrecy
usually granted to newsmen
during a session of Congress
last week. His colleague.
Senator Sam J Erwin, Jr.,
voted in favor of the same
measure.
Helms also told his listeners
that "You’re my friends and I
came here tonight to be w’ith
you. After that damn flight here
today, I'm glad to be
anywhere."
He cited the fact that he lives
in Arlihgton. Va , just outside
