WAKE UP HAM"

Rev. John Jones, Triumphant
The Church and Kingdom of God
i'm Christ submits the following
sermon this week.
Some one may desire to know
about the gentiles being Jesus
people, and did he really turn
from the Jews to the gentiles,
first I want to say that Jesus was
neither Greek nor Jew, but was
born of. the Jewish nation.
Let us notice st. Jno. I'LL. He
(Jesus) came unto his own (the
Jews) and his own received him
not Now let us notice Luke 49,
34-35. Jesus speaking to the
Jews o Jerusalem, Jerusalem.
which killeth the prophets, and
stoneth them that are sent unto
thee, how often would I have
gathered thy children together,
as a hen doth gather her brood
(chicks) under her wings, and ye
would not.
Behold your house is left unto
you desolate. This was the end of
the Jewish world. Now We know
that when a place is left desolate
its ruined, its SOLITARY. Jesus Of
fered the Jews the gospel of the
kingdom they would not accept it.
Let us notice Acts 1:10-11 Jesus
was translated after his resurrec-
ton, and Paul. a Roman Jew,
was converted and made Jesus
Successor. the gospel of the king
dom was given to him when he
offered it to the Jews they flatly
refused, and we hear him saying,

the same spirit that was in Je-
sus, He said in Acts 1916. 1t
was necessary that the word of
God should have been spoken to
you: but seeing you have put it
from you, ands judge yourselves
unworthy of everlasting life. 10,
we turn to the gentiles. the gen

NEGRO BAITERS
EXPOSED

SEATTLE. - Admission that
Charles Ringer, a captain in the
Air Raid Warden organization,
had urged circulation of petitions
barring Negroes from the Holly
Park Housing project at meet
ing of precinct lieutenants was
made by witnesses at an investi-
cation ordered by Mayor VIM.
Devin.
The investigation, conducted by
Colonel Charles S. Albert, direc-
tor of the civilian protection d.
vision of the War Commission,
was held Friday night at the Co
lumbia precinct police station.
A question from Colonel Albert
to Otto Reese, lieutenant in the
precinct meeting, established the
fact clearly that Ringer has util-
lied the meeting to foster racial
hatred.
Spoke as Captain
Gas a precinct lieutenant, you
called upon your superior officer
to speak," Col. Albert asked.
YES" Reese replied.
Ringer had then talked for
about 10 minutes. 1t was admit
ed calling upon the wardens to
promote the petitions.
Ringer admitted bringing the
petitions to the meeting but side
stepped responsibility by saying
he asked the wardens to support
them but had added they didn't
have to-"
The hearing substantiated the
charges made by e. ]. Boyle, To-
connective engineer, which resulted
in demands for an investigation
by labor and other patriotic
groups.
Two of the raid wardens admit
ted at the hearing that they had
the petitions in answer
to Ringers request.
Attacked Negroes
Ringer disclosed his own shock
ng racial prejudices at the hear
ng by launching an attack on the
Negro people in an attempt to
lrouse prejudice.
In a memorandum issued Tues
lay Mayor Devin said:
'As to the question of whether
II not an air raid warden meet
ng was used for the purpose of
ostering racial prejudice the
onelusion of the committee was
hat the air raid warden organi-
alton was not involved"
In apparent anticipation of dis
abstraction with the verdict, May
r Devin urged that further ques-
ons be directed to Colonel Al

your voice, Mr. President. as the
Nations Commander-in-Ch has
the authority necessary TO rally
every decent force in American life
against these influences that seek
to undermine our national unity.
at is with high seriousness Of
purpose that we urge you to go
before the people OF America and
the people OF the world and speak
out against those forces attempting
10 tear the fabric Of national unity
We urge you TO make an historic
iireside chat dealing specifically
with the events mentioned in this
letter. We urge you TO place your
high office back OF guarantees that
Negro people and other minority
groups will be freed from every
hindrance which prevents their full
participation in our war effort: that
every member o. our armed forces
will be given full and adequate pro-
lection by the federal government
Wherever he may be. And we
urge you 10 effectuate these vitality
necessary declarations with proper
directives to the various agencies
Of government under your direc-
ton.
Such action will sustain the
morale Of thirteen million Negro
people and millions Of other min

action will extend its influence TO
hundreds OF millions Of peoples OF
darker races throughout the world,
without whose support the war
