Laird Urges Nativity Theme for 1964 Christmas Stamp
Rep. Melvin R. Laird criticizes the 1964 Yuletide postal stamp as overly commercial and urges the Post Office to issue a Nativity scene stamp reflecting Christmas birth of Jesus Christ. He notes separation of church and state should not apply to holiday stamps and cites past efforts to replace the tree or Santa with a religious symbol. He argues Christmas should convey the birthday of Jesus and honors his spiritual influence.
