State Troops Made Ready Over Bus Segregation Clash
Gov Marvin Griffin put the Georgia militia on standby after ministers protested bus seating segregation in Atlanta. He said troops would be used to prevent riots or breaches of peace and cited threats from outside agitators. City officials urged restraint as a nonviolent push to desegregate continued. The plan followed a minister-led protest on a downtown Atlanta Transit Co. bus.
