Committee Headed
BY Howard Professor


NEW YORK (ANP) - An
Emergency Committee, To Pro
test the NAACP Action Against
DR.. w. f. Dubois" was announced
here Friday with DR.. Joseph
Johnson, dean Of the Howard
University School of medicine, as

The committee, with headquar-
tiers at 40 West 44th ST., organ
lied with the view that the
NAACP's action against DR.. Du-
Bots was unwarranted and merits

himself declared Dubois is "one
of the greatest leaders of his
race"
The committee, whose member
ship includes Shirley Graham
author of the Frederick Douglas
biography, There Was Once q
Slave" and Atty Archibald S
Pinkett of Washington, has sent
kilograms to many NAACP mem.

viting them to join the commit
tee in protesting the custer OF

The committee will recommend
that the custer order be reSCinded
and already other sub-commit,
tees are being organized in other
cities and states.

ATOMIC AGE

Many election analysts have

Could it be that the public just

cast votes for any of the three
presidential aSpirants-or that it
doesn't matter who is elected, so
long as prices come down, or the
farmers are fed, or Russian
propaganda is kept up?

/ noticed in your paper of May u,
that the Chamber of Commerce were
trying to get a passenger train
through Lexington. The first thing
| want TO say is, that there's not n
out of ten, of The Chamber of Com
merce, would ride this train if it
were put through here. They have
their own car, or they would go with
their friends that did have a car.
If the train were to come through
here it would haul a few passengers,
and cause me to haul less. AS / am
operating at a loss, it would cause
me to go out of business.
We get twenty five to fifty cents
per passenger to haul them to Lex
ington from any place in Holmes
county that we serve. There's not
a merchant or a doctor but what
would make more profit off the
passenger than ! do. In thfs case,
who is it that's being profited by
my operation at a loss? We have
passengers at all stations that we
service that come to Lexington to
the doctor and hospital that don't
have any other way to CO. We bring
passengers into Lexington from the
following towns: Drew, C1arksdaTe,

DANIEL IN THE DEN OF LIONS
THE sixth chapter must be read
l. to have an adequate background
for this study. Daniel had been
chosen as the first of three presf-
dents to rule over 100 princes who
should govern the kingdom. The
other two presidents and the princes
could find no fault In this He
brew, save that he believed and OBJ
served the law of his God. So, they
conspired against him by persuad-
ing the king to issue a decree that
no person in the kingdom was to
make a petition to any God OF man
for 80 days, save to- the king, on
the penalty of being cast into the
den of lions. This decree was is
sued by Darius, and Daniels enc
mics reported to Darius that Daniel
was opening his window three times
a day, praying to his God. Darius
was greatly troubled, but had to
stand by his decree, and Daniel a
cast into the den Of lions. Darius
spent a sleepless night, and hurried
to the den at dawn to know about
Daniel. Daniel replied, 20 king, live
for ever. My God hath sent his
angel, and hath shut the liens
mouths, that they have not hurt

DARIUS REWARDS DANIEL

ONVINCED that Daniels corr
~ victions had been miraculously
rewarded by God, Darius ordered
the other two presidents and the
princes, together with their wives
and children, thrown into the lions
dens. They we're all destroyed by
the lions.
Then Darius issued a decree to all
the nations and people of all Ian
guages that dwell in an the earth.
Hear this decree:
"Peace be multiplied unto you. I
make a decree, That in every do
minion of my kingdom men tremble
and fear before the God of Daniel;
for ne is the living God, and sted-
fast forever. and his kingdom that
which shall not be destroyed, and
his dominion shall be even unto the
end" So Daniel prospered in the

COURAGE TO PUT GOD FIRST

I OOK now at the other test Of
IL faith-that of the three Hebrew
children, Shadrack, Meshach and
Abednego. Nebuchadnezzar, king
of Babylon, had made a golden inn
age, 90 feet high and nine feet wide,
and set it up in the plain of Dura.
On a certain day, when he was going
to establish his state religion, he
ordered every subject to fall down
and worship this image.
But Shadrack, Meshach and Abed-
| nego refused to worship the image.
| ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS was furious when
| he heard of their refusal. He sum-
moned them into his presence, and
warned them of their fate if they
further refused to worship his gods.
They answered him frankly that
they would not bow down to the
image. He ordered them thrown
tnto the fiery furnace.
They decided that death was more
honorable than apostasy. The e
who cast them into the furnace fell
dead!
UNSEARED AND UNSINGED!
d UT the three Hebrew children
- walked into the flames, unseared
and unsinged! The king was as
founded. The people were amazed.
They had witnessed what the God Of
all the earth can and will do.
Then went forth the decree,
There is no other Coo that can de-
liver after this sort" Thus we have
the golden text for Sundays lesson:
BE it known unto thee, o king.
that we will not serve thy gods, nor
worship the golden image which
thou hast set up"
And what happened in the long
ago when men dared to stand up and
trust in God will happen today and
every day.
