The North Carolina Conference of the Pentecostal Holiness Church during its 50th annual session in Sanford chided gubernatorial candidate Terry Sanford for backing a Catholic for president. The resolution urged separation of church and state and opposed electing a Roman Catholic as president, while condemning the Democratic nominee for governor and allied figures. The committee, chaired by Rev. J. Floyd Williams, adopted the resolution unanimously, and the conference also reappointed several church leaders to long terms.
