125,000 Pray For World Peace
The Washington Monument serves as a backdrop as 125,000 people of all faiths take part in a massive display of faith and prayer for peace after "terror bomb test by Russians" (Soviet Union explodes super atomic bomb). They are addressed by Francis Cardinal Spellman who terms the Russians the Free World's worst enemy and says that never has the world had a greater need for men of deep faith than in these troubled days.
