DR.. G. w. McClanahan, pastor
Of the Grace Lutheran church, Bes.
semer City, and the pastor of the
St. Matthews Lutheran church OF
this city from 1913 1921 has
written the following article con
corning the late Rev. George S.
Bowden, native of Wilmington:
In the solemn and sacred serv.
ices of yesterday my mind wan
dered back to the years when our
beloved friend, as student in col
lege and then in the seminary, was
member of my congregation, St.
Matthew'S Lutheran church, Will
M ~'cn.
IT recall wildly his ordination
serN -ce 70 years ago in Union LII
theran Church, Salisbury. 1t h S
been an abiding joy to me to fol-
low him with deep interest through
these years in his three pastorates
of faithful and devoted service to
his blessed Master.
Gust recently it was his joy and
pleasure to have a part in the Or
dination service of his son, George
S. Bowden, Jr., in St. Paurs Lu-
theran Church, Salisbury. In h e
pastorates where he labored he ex-
pressed in his leadership, his pas
tora1 visitation, and in his pulpit
those fine qualities that make the
most for Chl;st's Kingdom. Espe-
cially is this true in his last and
longest pasicrate here in Gastonia.
DIR. j. Z. Morgan, president of
the United L angeical Lutheran
Synod of NTH Carolina, brought

hortation -nj comfort. o. T H.
McDill, representing t h e minis
terial association of the city, ex-
pressed the high esteem and affec-
ton in which Pastor Bowden was
held by the people of the communi-
ty.
'The many beautiful flowers that
overlooked the chancel will soon
fade and wither away, but h e
white flowers of our dear friend S
upright character, his devotion to
the ministry of the Gospel, and his
love to his devoted family will
abide forever in the hearts and
lives of all those who have been
associated with him.

Washington, D. C. (NNPA)-In-
dication of the growing liberalism
and enlightenment in the South is
given in editorial in The Reveille,
daily newspaper published by the
students at Louisiana State Uni
versity, white, last week, headed
"White Supremacy Can't Exist in
Democracy"
The article questions any differ
ence between "Nordic supremacy in
Germany and white supremacy in
the South" 1t points out that the
idea of equal voting rights is not
to lower voting standards to the
level of illiterate Negroes, but to
bring the less advanced Negroes up
to meet the same requirements with
which white voters must comply.
Similarly" it says, "the South
cannot have high educational
standards so long as it keeps its
Negro population poorly educated"
1t questions whether the mass of
southerners really knows the South
as it is today. "The war has
changed the whole economic and
political picture" it declares. "The
relationship with minority races
cannot rock along as it has in the
past"

County Attorney
Dillon Promises
Prompt Action

Testimony Of prominent MIN
neapois man, Lewis Ewing, 1913
4th Ave. So, that he had been re-
fused drink at bar at 313 Second
Ave. &c., on account Of his race was
heard Wednesday by the Hennepin
County grand jury.
The man told the jurors that the
bartender told him he was drunk
an old subterfuge used by bar en-
ployes who want to refuse Negroes
service.
Mr.. Ewing went direct from the
bar to County Attorney Michael
billions office and reported the in
cident. Noting that Ewing was not
drunk Che hadn't had a drink the
County Attorney arranged to have
him and two witnesses appear be-
fore the grand jury Wednesday.
At press time the decision of the
grand jury had not been Fa-.de.
Cecil Newman of the Spokesman
and Recorder newspapers complain
ed by phone to County Attorney
Dillon that similar refusals are
growing in Minneapolis and re-
quested that the county attorney
serve some type of notice on tav-
ems, restaurants and other places
who are violating the state civil
rights law. In Minnesota, refusal
to serve citizens because of race,
creed or color is a gross misdemean-
or. Many places violate this law
because enforcement of the law is
lax.
County Attorney Dillon agreed to
write letters to the restaurant,
tavern and bar owners associations
calling attention to alleged viola
lions of the state civil rights law.
Persons refused service in res
taurants, bars and taverns should
secure witnesses if possible and re-
port such violations to the local
branch of the NAACP.
Negro soldiers and sailors home
on furlough have been refused food
and drink.
There is at least one well known
downtown cafe where patrons of
the Jewish religion are made to
wait long periods for service, to
discourage their patronage.
