Woman President Leads Top Protestant Council After Open Contest
The National Council of Churches elected a new president Mrs. Wedel over rival Rev. Leon Watts. Watts, a New York Negro, lost 382 to 100 as black churchmen backed Cleage while opposing candidates faced questions over the council's direction. Mrs. Wedel, former vice president of the council, will serve a three year term. She has led volunteer efforts with the Red Cross and Girl Scouts and heads the National Resource Center for Voluntarism in Washington. The vote ended the NCC's 20 year history without a contest for the top post. Dr. Cleage attacked the NCC as racist and anti-Christ for not addressing Indian, Mexican-American, black, and poor peoples' suffering.

Senate Rejects Ban on Foundations Voter Activity
The Senate voted 52 to 36 to strike a provision from the tax reform bill that would bar private foundations from voter registration or turnout activities. An amendment by Hugh Scott and Ralph Yarborough would permit nonpartisan activity under tighter limits, while House language favored a full ban. Senator Herman Talmadge argued against using tax exempt funds for political dabbling, while Yarborough called the measure moderate and necessary to close a loophole allowing last minute drives.
