gangsters.
Trying to clear himself before the
police get to him and also trying to
maintain his respectable facade, puts

Lanes Proposal
Assuming that Alaskans want
control of their own lands and re-
sources, there must be some prepa-
ration for administering them. No
better rlan9has been suggested than
the one proposed by former Sec
rotary of the Interior, Franklin K.
Lane, some 40 years ago. Secretary
Lane proposed an Alaska Commits
sion of five members, all of them to
reside in Alaska and at least two
to be BONA fide residents OF Alaska
when appointed. This commission
would be given active administra-
tive control of every branch, bureau
and agency of the Federal govern
ment operating in Alaska except
the military and the judiciary. The
Lane plan was drafted into bill by
former Delegate Wickersham and
died in Congress because OF lack
of interest rather than lack OF merit.
If such plan were revived. brought
up to date and put into effect it
would do much more to promote
the development of Alaska than will
statehood without control OF our
lands and resources.
The federal government should
be prevailed upon to grant Alaska
a substantial area of land, as was
done in the Territory OF New Mex
leo, to finance the construction and
upkeep of a penitentiary. asylum
for the insane and other necessary
institutions, and these institutions
should be built and operated by the
Territory
When this program is completed
and the Territory has proved her
self fully capable of self-goyern-
ment. then the people OF Alaska
can go before Congress and say

Governor Speaks
On Progress Of
Arizona Highway

Governor Garvey's radio address
last Sunday, on the progress of
the states highways was as fol-

For almost as long as can re-
member, the Governors of Arizona
were engaged in political conflicts
with members of the highway COM
missions. The work of developing
our states highway systems was
plagued with sectional jealousies
and bitter quarrels between various
communities. The public good suf-
fered from a lack of cooperation
and understanding. The accomp-
lishments of the roadbuilders was
clouded by the disputes that arose
in every section of the state.
I am sincerely proud today to
tell you that an era of harmony,
accord, and fine cooperation exists
in our state highway department.
The Highway Commission, the
engineers, and he men driving the
blades and laying the blacktop are
working as a team. They are get

we thought would be possible. New
roads are being built and old high
ways are being repaired and i'm

to good planning and efficient
operation.
Our highway network is being
developed and extended for the
good of the whole state, not for
the sole benefit of any chosen or

The Christian
Church News
By Rev. MARSHALL L. SHEPARD
For the NNPA News Service

BY Rev. MARSHALL L. SHEPARD
For the NNPA News Service
Our society today-even in our
churches, is much more involved
in this whole question of race.
We are coming to realize that
it is the No. 1 problem in our pres
ent-day world. We will never have
peace among the nations until we
face squarely and overcome this
pernicious doctrine of racial super
iority and thereby gain true equal
ity.
When the evangelist, Phillip, left
Jerusalem to preach the gospel of
Christ, to the gentiles, almost i'm
mediately he ran into a race prob
lem.
An Ethiopian, who had been up
to Jerusalem to worship, was on
his way back to Ethiopia in a
chariot. The scripture says that the
spirit said to Phillip: "Go near and
join thyse1f to this chariot"
! And Phillip ran to the side of
the chariot and heard the Ethio-
plan reading from the prophet
Isaiah, and he, the Ethiopian, de-
sired Phillip that he would come
up and thereby with him guide him
in the understanding of the scrip
ture.
What if Phillip had refused to
sit down by this black man? He
would have been acting contrary
to the spirit of God and the gospel
of Jesus and would have been dis
credited throughout Ethiopia.
If the colored people of the world
lose respect and turn their backs
on Christianity, it is largely be-
cause of the conduct of so-called
representatives of Christ.
We shall always owe a debt of
gratitude to the white missionaries
and educators who came into the
Southland Immediately after the
Civil War, who were not afraid to
associate on the basis of absolute
equality with the freedmen of that
area.
They were ostricized and rebuked
and scorned by the majority of
white people of the southern reg
ion because they followed the lead
of the spirit and "sat where they
sat-"
These noble representatives of
the Christ established schools and
other character-building agencies
to lift these former slaves to a
higher level of civilization
Any Christian minister who is
afraid or ashamed to "sit" with
other people because Of race or
color cannot be a faithful messen-
ger of God.
In the light of this, it is en-
couraging to note that many of
our great religious bodies have re-
fused steadfastly to meet in cities
that do not afford an opportunity
for all of the delegates, regard
less of race, to sit and live together
without discrimination.
Since the Supreme Court deci-
sion I have had an opportunity to
eat in a dining car in the South
without discrimination. Nothing
happened. A higher authority than
the Supreme Court of the United
States makes this sort of thing
binding on the churches.
