Description
Title supplied by cataloger.
Photograph caption dated June 5, 1958 reads, "A score of pickets again today picketed the Spring St. side of the Federal Building protesting future tests of atomic bombs. They were organized under the Non-Violent Action Against Nuclear Weapons and carried signs saying, 'Bomb tests add to war risks,' 'Stop bomb tests in the pacific now,' and 'Bomb tests poison air and food.' Spokesman for the group pointed out that a pacifist group is trying to sail a yacht called the 'Golden Rule' into the atomic testing area, and just yesterday was stopped by the Coast Guard off of Honolulu."
