Montgomery County Sentinel,
Dear Mrs. Haines:
Thank you for printing Mrs.
Marjory Hendricks stimulating
letter february "a edition) which
your staff headlined "Why Do
People Not Go To Church, A Read
er Asks" Her question would make
a good Lenten study for all of US
Christians.
In a letter to the Editor one can
not begin to set forth the answer
to such a question, but it seems to
me that there are at least two
areas which any study of the prob
lem ought to explore.
The first of the areas is "our
outward appearance" Christianity
has to do with more than external
morality; and yet so long as we
are more worried about smoking
cigarettes than about fighting for
justice, perhaps the non-Christian
has a right to wonder what is so
wonderful about our conviction
that Christ died for all men. And
again, Christianity has to do with
more than intellectual respectable
ity; and yet so long as we are hos
tile to the assured results of scien-
tifc and historical research per-
haps the Christian has right
to wonder whether what we call
Faith" is not just "believin' what
we know amt so"
The second of the areas is "our
inward appearance" Are we grip
ped by the Importance of our con-
viction that God was in Christ
reconciling the world unto him
SELF? Mrs. Hendricks is right in
citing the fine choirs and other ex-
ternals in our churches; and yet
there is a sense in which citing
them is like trying to measure the
adequacy of home by the number
of waffle irons and coasters it has.
(This is no criticism of her fine
letter she was trying to put
into words the depth of her ex-
perience in her church which is
forever beyond the ability of mere
words to capture; and she did a
good job of it, Are we so on fire
with the gospel that we are like
lawyers trying to tell the world
about it's million dollar inheritance,
like doctors trying to tell the
world about the cure for its can
GER, like messengers from higher
headquarters trying to get through
with the good news from God?
No non-Christian will be con-
verted by Mrs. Hendricks letter or
mine or anyone else's =. (. any more
than series of letters between
math rat.c,ans could teach me any
calculus. Cur letters are but wit
ncs5es to Che depth of our convic-
ton abcus the truth of Gods mes
sac Of good news" But perhaps
our exchange may serve to remind
us CndC Int eIhpIliieSS Oh our peWS
may be kind of judgment on us
for having let God down in this
! age, a kind of prodding by God to
/ wake us up that we may find the
"beam that is in our own eye. We
. can't set the world on fire if we are
I icicles; pray that we may let God
: use this Lent to turn us into burn.

@. What can be done to prevent
sows from MASKING their pigs?
A. All narrowing houses of every
type should have q guard rail
around the sides and back of the in
dividual pen used by each SOW and
her litter. This rail should be 8 to
10 inches from the floor and 8 to 10
inches from the wall Guard rails
are of great value in keeping sows
from rolling on their pigs.
q. How much space is needed in
the brOOder house for baby chicks?
A. The Ralston Purina Companys
Research Farm recommends not
more than two chicks per square
foot during the first six weeks. Pull
let's in confinement up to 20 weeks
should have two to three square
feet per bird and those on range
need about IL square feet of house
space per bird. Three to 3ls square
feet is recommended per hen.
Crowding retards growth and causes
uneven development.
q. How much fresh water does a
dairy cow need?
A. A COW should drink a minimum
of about five gallons of water for
each gallon of milk she produces,
although many cows win drink more.
Even when dry, dairy cows need a
regular supply of clean, fresh water.

tional Bar Association has urged
upon President Truman and At
torney General Tom c. Clark the
appointment of qualified colored
lawyers to some of the twenty
seven newly created judgeships
on Federal circuit and district
court benches.
In letters to President Truman
and Mr.. Clark, Thurman L. d.
Doddson, president of the Nation
al Bar Association, pointed out
that there has been systematic
exclusion of colored attorneys
from service in the Federal judu-
ciary and urged the abrogation
of this policy.
At the same time, it was
learned that the Washington
Bar Association has recommend
ed three colored lawyers for ap-
pointment to the three addition.
al circuit judgeships in the Dis.
trict of Columbia, and four col
ored lawyers for appointment to
the three additional district judg-
eships for the District of Col
umbia.
The lawyers recommended by
local bar association for circuit
Judgeships are Governor William
H. HASTE of the Virgin Islands.
former judge of the United States
district Court of the Virgin Is
land; James NJ. Nabrit, secre-
tary of Howard University and a
professor in the Howard Law
School, and George M. Johnson
deal of the Howard Law School.
For appointment to the addi-
tional district judgeships for the
District of Columbia the local
bar association recommended
Richard R. Atkinson, George E.
c. Hayes, George A. Parker, and
Emery B. Smith, who are all
actively engaged in the practice
of law in the local courts.

Aid to erove|and
Prisoners

Raiford, Florida, August IL. -
Physical examinations made this
week of the three rowland boys
being held here on a rape charge
substantiated charges made by AS
sistant Specia lCounsel Franklin
H. Williams of the National AS
ISOLATION for the Advancement of
Colored People that the prisoners
were brutally beaten by police to
make them confess''s to the crime
of attacking Mrs Willie Palgett.
Jean Downing, DDS, and Nelson
Spaulding, MD, of Jacksonville,
confirmed the NAACP attorneys
report that lash marks and scars
are still visible on the prisoners
bodies and that one of the boys
has several broken teeth and an
others foot was cut with glass.
In addition to supplying medi-
cal care for the youths after pris-
on authorities refused to do so,
the NAACP' has provided the pris-
oners with shoes and the first
clean clothing made available to
them since their arrest almost
four weeks ago.
The three boys, Samuel Shep-
herd, 2, Walter Lee rvin, %, and
Charles Greenlee, 16, were jailed
and accused of attacking Mrs.
Padgett after she charged that
four Negfoes had raped her early
on the morning of July 16. After
the accusation set off a flare of
mob violence in the Groveland
area, resulting in the burning of
three Negro homes cone OF them
that of Shepherds father, Mr..
Williams made an on-the-spot in
vestigation of the Greveland sit
uation. He gathered evidence in
dicating that the prisoners are in
nocent of the charges against them
and that mounting anti-Negro SEN
timent in the area was behind the
rioting.
Acting NAACP Secretary Roy
Wilkins revealed that contribu-
tons for legal defense of the trio
began coming in after the Asso-
citation announced it's intentio of
fightig the case A gift of $117.38
was received from the students of
Bethune-Cookman College, $25
from the faculty and students OF
Florida Normal and Industrial Col
lege summer school, and $50 from
the Southeastern Federation of
Colored Women's Clubs.
A mass meeting to protest the
inhuman treatment of the youths
is being held in Orlando on August
IA under the direction of John P.
Ellis, president of the Orlando
branch of the NAACP, and Harry
T. Moore, executive secretary of
the Florida State Conference of
NAACP branches. The Associa-
ton is publishing a pamphlet pre-
senting the facts in the case, and
Mr.. Wilkins this week sent a let
ter of appeal for funds to NAACP
branches.
