How to make white transparent

Question

I am playing with OGL's blending. I have a white background. I draw quad on this background. The quad is binded with white and black texture. Colors array is filled with color and alpha values:

for (i = 0; i < IMAGE_WIDTH; i++) {
    for (j = 0; j < MAGE_HEIGHT; j++) {
        c = ((((i&0x8)==0)^((j&0x8))==0))*255;
        Image[i][j][0] = (GLubyte) c;
        Image[i][j][1] = (GLubyte) c;
        Image[i][j][2] = (GLubyte) c;
        Image[i][j][3] = (GLubyte) 255;
    };

Display textured quad:

glEnable(GL_BLEND);
glBlendFunc (GL_SRC_ALPHA, GL_ONE);    
glDisable (GL_DEPTH_TEST);                                              

glEnable(GL_TEXTURE_2D);
glBindTexture(GL_TEXTURE_2D, texCheck);        

glLoadIdentity();                                                                      
glTranslatef (0.0f, 0.0f, -9.0f);

glBegin (GL_QUADS);    
    glColor3f (1.0f, 1.0f, 1.0f);
    glTexCoord2f(0.0, 0.0); glVertex3f(-5.0f, -5.0f, 0.0f);
    glTexCoord2f(0.0, 1.0); glVertex3f( 5.0f, -5.0f, 0.0f);
    glTexCoord2f(1.0, 1.0); glVertex3f( 5.0f, 5.0f, 0.0f);
    glTexCoord2f(1.0, 0.0); glVertex3f(-5.0f, 5.0f, 0.0f);
glEnd();

glDisable(GL_TEXTURE_2D);
glEnable (GL_DEPTH_TEST);                                              
glDisable (GL_BLEND);

Black color of the binded texture on the quad is invisible and works fine. What should I do to make white color of binded texture transparent and black color of binded texure not transparent.
