PASTOR FORCED TO RESIGN
Rev. j. Il. Taylor. Savannah Baptist
Minister. Asked TO Leave for Re-
fusnl to support government.

II? Associated Press
SAVANNAH. GA, November 5.-Rcv
j. IL. Taylor. d. D., pastor OF the First
BAPTIST Church. the leading church of
that denomination in Savannah. to-day
announced that he would tender his
resignation at the regular church SER
vice on Sunday night next This ac-
ton follows the adoption of n resolu-
ton last Wednesday night at a meeting
OF the membership OF the church call
ing upon the doctor to resign.
Dr. Taylor, at the meeting of The
Southern Baptist Convention 1T New
orleans last summer, opposed the adop-
ton or a resolution Dledging the sup
port OF the Baptists OF the South to
the government in it's war with Ger
many. Tie did this because he was
opposed TO. war, and held the convcn-
ton had no right to pledge it's mem
bershtp in such way. Since that time
The breach between himself and his
membership has widened until his
resignation was asked for

The Segregation Ordinance

IN declaring unconstitutional the Louisville
L segregation ordinance, which was modelled
after the one adopted in Richmond six years
ago, the Supreme Court of the United States
seems to have drawn an arbitrary line be-
You'd which municipal police powers may not
so. AS the court frankly sets forth in its
opinion, it has upheld various laws which
separated the races on the basis of equal &C
commodatons in public conveyanccs, and
courts OF high authority have held enact
m2nts lawful which provide for separation
in the public schools of white and colored
children where equal privileges are given"
But now the court through its mandate In
the Louisville case, says that it is in violation
of the fourteenth amendment of the Consti-
tuition for municipality to rule that white
citizens may not encroach upon a residence
block where negroes predominant in point
of numbers, and that the latter may not move
into block where the whites are in the
ascendancy. and this despite the fact that the
quality and desirability Of the residence sec
lions may be equal.
The effect Of this ruling OH Richmond can
not be determined until the courts opinion
has been carefully studied and the Louisville
and Richmond ordinances compared for pos
sible points of difference. The local ordi-
nance has been upheld by the State Supreme
Court and appeal to the United States
Supreme Court is now pending. That it will
there meet the fate of the Louisville enact
ment there seems little doubt.
Under Richmond's segregation law. the
races have lived and worked in harmony
Should it be declared UNCONSTITUTIONAL there
is no reason TO believe that their present
pleasant relations will be disturbed. Sporadic
cases are bound to occur, which will mean
purely localized trouble. and they will be
handled sanely and sensibly as others have
been in the past. That there will be any
general encroachment of the negroes upon
white residence districts there need be no
fear Municipal developments throughout
the South. as we'll as in the North, give ample
evidence that the negroes prefer to reside
to themselves and are happier and more con-
tent when they do SO. That is true now, and
will continue TO be true of the negroes of
