AUGING EVERY SITUATION
from its own standpoint, ma
- terial sense proclaims that might
Is material, and that this might con-
stitutes right. This mendacious, sub
stanceless argument makes it appear
that Spirit, God, is unavailing, neg
ligible. Consistently, this self-styled
colossus Of materialism develops in
its followers misleading ambitions,
misdirected faith, frustrated effort.
But the prophet Zechariah's call
comes to all who have ears to hear
(Zechariah 49,, mot by might, nor

Hence, that only q correct understand

disaster from human experience.
Many are apt to set aside, to their
own undoing, that which is spiritually
essential in favor OF nonessential
ieshly qualifications and feeting pos
sessions. On an unprecedented scale,
this matter worship appears today to

If moral rectitude were to vanish
from the earth, and every human being
were to lose his ability to distinguish
between right and wrong, general
chaos would ensue. But there is too
much good expressed for this to be
possible. Amid the welter of current
events and the pretensions of so-called
material might, it is becoming ap-

moral and spiritual regeneration alone
can right the worlds wrongs and

f2:25). Everyone is destined to learn

Council Protests
Recreation Facilities

Protesting recreational facilities
as provided for in the Frederick
Douglas Homes Housing Project as
planned, the Brewster City Council
wrote a protest to Mr. Carl Bradt,
secretaty-director OF the Detroit
Housing Commission of which the
below is a copy:
The Detroit Housing Commission
775 Randolph Street
Detroit, Michigan
Attention Of MIR. Bradt, sec'y.-Dir.
Dear Sir:
The Recreation committee OF the
Brewster Recreation Council has
examined the proposed layout OF the
Frederick Douglas Homes Housing
Project.
We do not feel that adequate pro-
vision has been made to take care
OF recreation activities for all the
people in the housing project, In
the housing projects around Brew
ster Recreation Center there will be
over 5000 people living in the
homes, in addition 10 those people
living in the immediate community,
It is estimated that there will be
approximately $40 children under G
years Of age. SIS children from 6 to
Is years, $50 children from l6 to 81
years, and approximately 3,l0O
adults living in the homes. The
present play area around the Brew
ster Recreation Center is inadequate
to take care OF this number OF
people.
The abandoned streets marked in
the plans as play or sitting out
areas, viii not serve the purpose for
which they are intended because
they are too small to appeal 10 chill
dren over W years OF age and the
limited space does not permit segre-
CATION of-age groups which play
activities demands. Their inadequate
size permits only a small percentage
of those who wish TO use them to
do so and there will be a tendency
for the larger boys and girls to
usurp the play areas, thus driving
the smaller children away. Located
a they are within the courts OF the
housing units, they are likely to be
noisy and prove annoying 10 ten
ants. 1t is impracticable TO provide
leadership on these small, widely
scattered play areas, whereas lead
ership is essential tc any satisfactory
use that tenant children may make
Of them. 1t is more practical and
economical to provide a large play
area where proper supervision can
be provided and where the space
is large enough TO permit segrega-
ton according TO age groups.
In order to provide adequate play
space for the community. this COM
mittee feels that the block OF build
ings known as l6Ol-D, 16O2-G. 1903
F, and l604-D, should be relocated
on the plat known as 1400, which
is approximately the same size and
it would permit the area on Brew.
