Emancipation Day
Event Colorful
BY V. w. HODGES

Negroes have made America
strong and rich and great. They
have sealed her freedom with their
blood. That freedom therefore must
be no dream, it must become liv-
ing reality here and now" declared
the Rev. Archibald j. Carey, youth
ful pastor of Chicago's WoodlaWn

piceS Of the local chapter OF the
National Association for the Adj
vancement of Colored People in
connection with it's annual observa-
ton of Emancipation Day exercises,
the distinguished minister and law
yer, son of the late Bishop Archi-
bald j. Carey, ST., spoke before an
audience which overran the main
floor, balconies and aisles of spa
ciouS Wheat Street Baptist Church,

zens. Careers and home have been
broken" he said. patterns of life
have been altered among Negroes in
order to defend with their lives,

Negroes will be affected In great
measure by two important pieces OF

These deal with the extension Of

NAME OF JESUS
 DISCOVERED ON
 lJNEkRTKED URN

JERUSALEM, Oct 3-Archeolog- ists said today they had discovered the name of Jesus, carved before 70 A. D. and perhaps by an eye witt ness to the crucifixion, among in- scriptions on Il early Christian bur- ial urns found in a cave on the Jerusalem Bethlehem road.
 The urns may provide the oldest archaeological record of Christianity and an historical confirmation of the trial and crucifixion of Christ, the archeologists said. The inscrip- tions have not yet been translated fully.
 A sect of Hebrews who followed Jesus, denounced Pontius Pilate and mourned the crucifixion of their leader was believed to have left the writings on the ossuries in the cave.
 Pottery, lamps and bottles were discovered with the urns and trans ferred to the museum of Jewish An tiquities for study, said Prof. Suke- nix, Director of Antiquities at He- brew University.
