MT. ZION BAPTIST CHURCH
ReU. J. H. Dennis, Pastor
Much is said of the pride in
being an American. What
makes that pride is the liberty
given to some of the people
while others are not allowed to
enjoy it. So, Rev. Dennis used
the text Sunday, July 20, 1O:45 a
m, HE shall be as the light of
the morning, even a morning
without clouds, as clear shining
after rain" In his prophetic
drama Israels manner of warn
ing Is brought on the scene.
They are lined up SO strong,
from the captains of the army.
These were equipped with dead
ly weapons, great STATS with
iron spears in the ends. Only 10
were selected Of the 80 for the
BATTLE. Here we get the real
lesson. Let's contrast these fates
Of thorns and wickedness; they
are not to be moved by naked
hands, SO those who wish to
check them; must take along a
star, the iron weapon, with a
spear in the end. Let's take a
different view of those who have
God and go ahead with Him.
Listen to this statement of as
surance; this everlasting cove
nant is ordained in all things.
Here to be an American means
nothing with all the privilege,
power and wealth without God.

Poor Schools Share
Blame forD Delinquency
In Students Essays

Lurid comic books and horror
broadcasts Wed with dilapidated
schools and off-color movies as
prime causes OF juvenile delinquency
in essays given by three District
high school students last night.
Before the session in the knights
of Pythias Temple was over, the
church, school and home also were
cited for failing to provide substan-
tial means of combating delin-
quency.
The students were entrants in
part of national contest on the
subject sponsored by the Knights.
Miss Harrison Wins First.
Miss Eulalie Harrison, Is. Of 170l
Sixteenth street NV, Central High
School student, who won first place,
gave poverty as an important reason
for youngsters erring. Miss Harri-
son was a speaker on Town Hall
of the Air." last week.
"Can you call a child delinquent
who steals because he is hungry?''
she queried. Should he be termed
hardened criminal If he roams
the streets and runs away when he
has nothing to call home but a mis-
cradle hovel in the slums or one
room in tenement?
These children do not deserve
punishment. They deserve help and
comfort and a greater opportunity
to develop sound minds and bodies
Blame horror broadcasts and some
of our movies and those blood
thirsty comic books. Instead OF
reform school we need psychia-
trist in every juvenile court"
Miss Judith E. Steinberg, 16, OF
$685. Thirty-second street NV.
Woodrow High School, who took
second honors, termed delinquency
"a serious threat" which exists while
our legislators debate"
Holds Schools Important
"They worry about the cost In
dollars and not about the cost in
human resources destroyed because
of bad housing" she said.
She quoted a District school Of
ficial as saying that $4,000, ,00C
would be required to replace dilap-
idsted schools here and COM
mented that this was an important
issue in fighting delinquency.
"Old schools and their depress-
ing atmosphere tend toward tru-
ancy, and this makes an oppor-
tunity for delinquency" she said
1--WE also need good teachers, and
we must raise their pay still higher
to attract those with high qualif1-
cations. Remember, the school is
perhaps the first link with the
home in developing good char
acter."
Finals on August IA.
A third contestant, Miss Jean
o. Smith, 1S, of 500 Fifth street
NV, also from Central, said par
ents should strive to Great an
atmosphere of emotional stability
in the home, but that before they
can instill valuation of the basic
principles Of life in their children
they must establish those prin-
ciples for themselves.
The two winners will appear in
another contest in Pythian Temple
against other high school students
The winner of this session, set for
April 81, will compete in q semifinal
June %. The final contest will be
at Beaumont. Tex, August IA.

General Fleming told the sub-com-

If industry objected to, a higher

Fair Play For Letter Carriers
Asked by National President

the court of public opinion, We,
are open to conviction for any
argument that will convince us
that letter carriers should be
obliged to appeal to public senti-
ment every time they petition
Congress for adjustment of postal
legislation. 1t seems to us that
economic changes and other new
conditions have an accompanying
responsibility for those who con-
stitute the legislative branch of
our Government. =
"TWenty-Seven years ago the
Civil Service Retirement Law was
good law-it still is basically.
Various amendments from time to
time have strengthened the law
and make it's application more ex-
tensive, as well as more beneficial
to the employees. But the annuities
allowed under the law today
simply will not permit retired let
ter carriers to do much more than
exist. The OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES
son bills, introduced in the First
Session of the 80th Congress, would
have gone long way toward cor
demanded that a liberalized re-
tirement bill be enacted. It is
needless to point out at this time
that letter carriers are still wait
ing for the passage of such a bill.
"It is not a question of striking
against our Government; we have
never entertained the idea. More
over, we never will. So far, so
good. But why in the name of social
justice, and fair play, must our
retired men be compelled to strug-
gle on through the sunset of their
lives on totally inadequate an
nuity? The QUID PRO QUO we
receive for our forfeiture of the
right to strike or engage in collec-
tive bargaining is Stoical indif-
ference. We wonder if we will have
to batter these same ramparts of
Indifference and scale these same
walls of apathy to secure an up
ward salary adjustment? After all,
Congress should not have to be
told that the present unprecedented
high cost of living affects letter
carriers the same as every other
American citizen"
