IN REBUTTAL
BY ALVIN J. WOLFF

Army who lost both his legs
fighting for his country, re-
Gently found it impossible to
purchase a house because he was
of Mexican descent. Members of
minority groups cannot eat in
the same restaurants, or spend
their vacations at the same sum-
mer resorts as do those of the
upper castles" In fact, they lit
orally must give advance warn
ing of their approach, since
many employers and institutions
of learning require not only the
nationality and religion Of the
applicant, but even the place of
birth of the applicants parents!
FEP.C., of course, would not
cure all of these barbaric evils,
but it certainly would be a step
in the right direction.
Few are guiltless in this
struggle, the North cannot sit
back smugly and point its finger
at the South; nor can the East
or West. These suppressions
and perversions of Democracy
are taking place in almost every
state of the Union. Pennsyl-
vania, New Jersey, New York,
California, have recently been in
the news with stories of racial,
religious. and political persecu-
tons. Segregation and discrimi-
nation in regard to jobs and edu-
cation are accepted in The name
of good taste"
At a time when the United
States is straining every re-
source to feed the hungry of
Europe and the world, our own
minorities can find little nour-
ishment for Liberty in the mere
appraisal OF the Constitution
and the Bill Of Rights. In fact,
Thomas Paine once wrote "a
Constitution is not a thing in
name only, but in fact. 1t has
not an ideal, but a real exist
ence; and wherever it cannot
be produced in a visible form,
there is none.
The Civil Rights Program is
necessary and vital now to re-
establis hthe faith Of our own
minorities in the principles of
our Founding Fathers, and to
strengthen the confidence of the
world in the fact that Democracy
can be made to work.

WHOM DO YOU suPPoRrq

WHOM DO YOU SUPPORT?
TWO sermons heard recently
stick in my mind like night and
day: one slanted to bounce the
congregation emotionally; and
the other to bring a construc-
tive spiritual message. Strange
to say the reputation of these
two ministers is in keeping with
the character of the sermons
preached. The public glibly
says, IF you want to get happy
hear Rev. x preach; but if you
want to be helped then sit at
the feet of Rev. Y"
In every city, I judge, there
are these two types of ministers
the one who breaches to tickle
the fancy of the crowd, and the
other who transmits the message
direct from the throne of God,
saying, This is that" 1 I'M
derstand the emotional bouncer
attracts the crowd, takes up
large collections, receives a
princely salary, rides around in
2 Cadillac, travels often. I learn
that the minister with the pro-
phetic message shepherds a
small flock, is given hardly a
living salary, does his pastoral
calling by foot, and stays on the
Job. The servant of God seldom
has a bed of roses but knows
what it is to wear a crown Of
thorns. Yet he has an inner
peace the world knows not of.
Excessive emotionalism seems
on the increase. hope my linz
tied observations are wrong. and
for the most part our ministers
are not panderers Of the knock
out sermons. Gifted is the
preacher whose enthusiasm for
the saving grace Of the gospel

Some months ago, I wrote an
article stating the possibility Of
MODERN music being over the
heads of the old timers who crit
icized it. After much study of
modern popular and dance music,
I have come to the conclusion
that the present day entertainer is
largely concentrated on a return
to the tom-tom and bowling style
which is generally associated with
the jungle and other places which
are judged uncivilized by the in
habitants of this country. 1t
seems to be the objective of these
be-bop and swing artists to rouse
the animal instincts of those who
hear an dthose who dance. So,
with some of the harmonies and
melodies of the old masters in
my mind, and with some of the
creations and performances of our
modern musicians in mind, I can
not find anything progressive or
uplifting in the playing of mod
ern dance and entertainment
teams which I have heard re-
Gently Don't think that am
not aware of the super-improvi
sations which have made many of
our teams famous, and in which
I have no difficulty in detecting
melody and harmony. But the
thing l am talking about is that
in which / can detect no melody
or harmony. l concede them rhy-
thin, and again I think of the
tom-toms. As the program Of
the CREATOR is progress and
evolution, believe that such an
tics have "got to go''.

O'Banyoun's
observations

There will be plenty noise made
by the ninth anniversary cele-
bration of Pleasant Hill Baptist
Church, which began Sunday,
September 5, and ends the 18th
with a banquet. Rev. Bullock al
ways comes through with inter
esting, modern programs, empha-
sizing the musical numbers, and
he has advertised an attractive
program for the present occa-
sion. That ten hour continuous
performance scheduled for Sun
day, the 18th, gives everybody a
chance to get in on the good
things, and the banquet, the 18th,
may cause traffic congestion at
the corner of Humboldt Ave. and
Waumbeck Streets.

Facts and Fdncies

@##F#
I was called a liar right off
the bat when this feature first
appeared on December q, in
reference to a statement / made
that one billion dollars, in
terms of dollar bills, would
reach a height of sixty miles.
It seems that at least one
mathematical mastermind lost
a lot of sleep trying to prove
that a stack Of one billion dol
lar bills would never reach that
tremendous height. I won't re-
tract the statement, however,
because I got the information
from a reliable source, and not
being of a mathematical turn
of mind, I am not going to try
to figure it out.
I wonder why so many Of us
delight in boring our friends
and acquaintance to the point
of evaporation by telling and
retelling some old story that
wasn't very interesting to start
with. Why do we have such re-
markable memories when it
comes to relating every small
detail of some incident that oc-
cured in our lives and are then
unable to remember for one
week how many times we have
told it to the same person

Al times we all feel that
we are failures at everything
and anything we attempt

see our own mistakes we won't
fail at everything. It is when
we start placing the blame for
our own shortcomings on

the world that we are real fail
