NAACP

Yes and again discontented, the
person that is not contented with
his lot in life is the one that will
go ahead in life. The English
people gathering at Runnymeade
forced the Magma Charta from
King John. The coming to Amer
lea Of Columbus followed later by
the Pilgrims, all seeking a freezer
broader life, The Colonists who
fought taxation and the revolunt-
ionary war; The praying Negroes
and Abolitionists not satisfied with
the yoke Of bondage were seeking
the right to a place in the sun and
were discontented.
People the world over today are
determined to make a change.
There is a clearly drawn line, on
one side is the group seeking a
selfish policy of greed, power and
intolerance; On the other side
those who believe in Love thy
Neighbor as myself. Justice, fair
play, tolerance and all the Freed
oms built upon a world wide de-
mocracy.
But these conditions are not OBJ
tanned by wishful thinking. We
must be willing to make sacrific-
