He an easy fellow TO talk with and demonstrates SIN
in the problem facing the south and particular his
state My interview with him along the lines Of educa-
tional and job opportunities for Negroes.
As defense against any proposal of integraed education
the SOUTH related several instances Of school strikes above
the MasonDxon line where students had revoed because Of
the admission of Negroes He greatly interested in develop
ing the regional education plan and lead the endorsement and
promotion of the movement during the Southern Governors
conferences Ashve October l917 and Wakua Springs
Florida February 1913 ncdenty, he also proposed to head
revolt against the democratic party which rejected at .
latter conference but later accepted and chosen running
with Governor Thumond Of South Carolina the Dixie
crat ticket.
agreed with that with equal educational opportunity
the necessary nerraca understanding gradually eliminate
prejudice and bias would result but he did not feel that the
theory of color complex and race superiority would ever dis
appear the south anywhere else in the nation To This
uaon, he complete dcaatst lie that the modes Of
civilization and the mechanics Of POLITICAL system

the way and with degree of satisfaction acceptance
The only thing that aroused the governors Indignation was
the mention of agitation by norheners who did under
stand the southern picture and the of force instead Of
counsel.
IT. then he surprised me by saying "thc Negro will be
equal when he act equal He fight prejudice and
practice it, and he fight segregation and maintain it
himself within his race"
Governor Wright instituted legislation that allowed north
industries to establish plants in Mississippi aXfree
several years to offer better job opportunities From my
personal observation found it TO be ue-that Negroes
ceved more than their quota of these Jobs "And hadn't
ouawed the closed shop in Mississippi he declared Negroes
working in skilled crafts would have kicked out because
they not accepted into those labor unions This found also
to be true throughout the state.
While Governor Wrghs philosophy not sound he thinks
that it is practical and eNpedent He believes the tradition
color complex and superiority mpenatrable baror
to the establishment of full civil rights Negroes in the south
anywhere else in the saon He said the thing that rs the
south u.s. that everybody fight the south without the
south fighting back.

until He had found them. The
years of His public ministry
were spent in "doing good"
and in sowing the seed of the
Word of God. What wonderful
words are given in the Sermon
on the Mount, in the Parallels,
in the Olivet Discourses, and
in the utterances to the dis
ciples in "the Upper Room"
At last He gave His life for
sinners on Calvary's Cross. He
was laid in tomb. He came
forth from the grave in Resur-
rection power and glory and
assembled on High, taking His
seat at Gods right hand. The
right to the universe was His
by His work of creation; now
He is ''appointed heir of all
things" because of laying down
His life to redeem man from
his sins.

these Scriptures by His de-
claration-''the Scriptures can
not be broken.
It was not enough for God
to speak to Israel in an audible
manner at Mt. Sinai, but He
also made Himself known
through the prophets, "bit by
bit," or as Isaiah says, "pre-
cept upon precept, line upon
line; here a little, and there
a little" Every child of God
should take time to study these
Scriptures in order to obtain
the inspiration, the wisdom,
and the knowledge contained
therein.

The same God "Who spoke
as of old to our forefathers,
spoken to us through a Son,
Who is predestined Lord of all
things, through Whom also He
made the universe" The pro-
phets were but the humble
servants of God. Inspired of
God, they delivered powerful
messages to Israel, calling the
sinful to repentance and to
saving knowledge of the Com
ing Messiah. Our Lord Jesus
Christ, Who is set forth in Old
Testament prophecy as "the
Servant of Jehovah" is here
referred to as "A Son." In
Johns Gospel, Jesus is called
'the Only Begotten Son. sent
by God into the world to pro-
vide Salvation for sinful, per-

received but a fragment of Di-

the Son it was given to mani

love, mercy, and compassion.

THE SUPREMACY OF CHRIST IN CREATION
HeoreWs
Prepared by Anton Daras
Headquarters ZionI Illinois 1913

This Epistle is of utmost i'm
portance to every child of God
who would understand Gods
Plan of Redemption for lost
and ruined race. This plan was
revealed to the writers of Old
Testament Scripture and was
made fully manifest by the
coming of Gods Son into the
world.
No mention is made as to
who was the author of this
Epistle to the Hebrews. 1t is
generally agreed among schol-
ars, however, that Paul the
Apostle was the writer. Be-
cause of his thorough Rabbini-
cal training, Paul was capable
of coping with the difficult
problems which are dealt with
herein and was fully compe-
tent to prove the superiority
of Christianity over ancient
Judaism. The Epistle was writ
ten perhaps from Rome, to be-
lieving Jews in Palestine, a
short time before the destruc-
ton of Jerusalem in 70 A. D.
This Lesson is confined to the
Introductory words of the
Epistle. The sublimity and
majesty of thought expressed
in these first three verses can
hardly be surpassed.
I THE REVELATION OF
GOD MADE KNOWN BY
THE PROPHETS - Verse
1; Numb. 1918; Deut. a:
1886; Prov. 8 :22-30; I Cor.
lola; II Peter 1:19-21;
3:15, 16.
It is interesting to note that
the Scriptures never argue, but
take for granted, the fact of
the existence of God. The first
words of the Bible give the
emphatic declaration, Gin the
beginning God created the
heavens and the earth" 1t is a
waste of time to argue or de-
bate concerning the revelation
of God in Nature or in His holy
inspired Word. This Epistle
opens with the word "God." 1t
affirms that God 'spoke to our
forefathers in many fragments
and by various methods
through the prophets" Here
is direct declaration of the
inspiration of all the Old Tes-
lament writings as we have
them today. Jesus also put His
seal of endorsement upon
