FBI Nominee Declines to Quit Private Clubs on Racial Policy
William H. Webster, nominated to head the FBI, told the Senate Judiciary Committee he would not resign from private clubs with no black members, stating he would not reflect badly on others working for change from within. Bell had resigned from clubs after criticism over exclusion of Black members. Webster said none of his clubs excludes by bylaw or known practice, though none has Black members. Senators signaled support or no opposition for Webster, with few objections voiced during over five hours of testimony.
