LIFE AT A
GLANCE
By RAY LAWRENCE

There is nothing like a good old
mind cleaning whisper to your
friend the next time you two con-
verse, it may stop him from dis
covering the unpleasant things in
all the rest of the folks in the
world. While on this subject, let me
give you little tip, remember you
may be among those who have
nothing to offer to your friends
friend. Yes sir, some folks musta
been born on the wrong side of the
river on dark stormy night. They
bellies are packed with grippe and
the only time they see a ray of
sunshine is when you agree with
them for the sake of peace, that
they are right in their beliefs.
The Ri. Reverend Bishop Nichols,
let out a loud blast at one of Broad
ways biggest hits, Mare Connelly's
"The Green Pastures" Surely,
biSIlOp 4NlCllOlS 1HOJINS COuIu NOT
have been to gain more parishers,
for the Actors who contribute a
right nice little sum to the various
religious denominations, are not in
accord, not by long shot But it
looks from this corner, that the
Bishop has enough trials and tribu-
lations with believers in his church
circles, and well, may be, he might
find a reason to avoid censorship
around Broadway, and leave it to
the folks who buy tickets at the
box office.
Nothing is given to you on a
silver platter, and folks who watch
the rich, will never understand why
they are so often unhappy. The
Dollar is not the first requisite for
happiness, there are barrel of in
gradients which make up life. If
you live by the sweat of your brow,
the chances are, you are the one
that is happy-most of the time.

The Mississippi Negro Wants
Education and Not Association

From in Birmingham, Alabama, the other day.
Mrs. Ruby Hurley the Regional Director of the Nation
al Association for the Advancement of Colored People,
organization which has the universal respect of
Negroes everywhere, well that of all other people
everywhere who seek the final triumph of Christian De-
mocracy in the world stirred up practically everybody
in Mississippi when she predicted following the exam
pies already set by Negroes in other states that Negroes
in Mississippi will be filing suits for equal educa-
tOn and for the right to attend the state graduate and
professional schools.
Aroused by the wide publicity given the statement
of the NAACP Regional Director the spokesman for the
State of Mississippi both official and unofficial appear
ed to have found little nothing else in the statement
coming from Birmingham but final reference to segre
CATION and the need to abolish segregation order that
American Democracy can have the much need con-
fdence of the people of the world with whom this
ton long must deal basis of full and complete
equality.
It must appear readily to the honest and intelligent
observer that the cry for keeping segregation at any
and all cost eVeyme the question of the need for doing
something about the vast inequalities in educational OPP
portunties for Negroes especially in the of gradu
ate and professional study where not the preense
exists, be nothing than smoke screen
to hide the really pertinent issue
In order to quiet the fears of those who appeared
all but become hySterca the remarks made by the
NAACP Regional Director, say again here, and in so
saying we repeating what every Negro and every
other honest citizens in Mississippi knows to be true
that the Mississippi Negro is seeking EDUCATION
and not ASSOCIATION.

ers of his position as pastor Of St.
Marks AME Church; interfere with
his employment as pastor and de-
prive him of his earnings.
Rev. Chavers indicated also that
the trial was illegal according to
the Discipline Of the AME Church
and that this was known to the
persons who caused his trial and
suspension.
Appended to the petition was a
copy of the notice informing him
that several members of the board
OF trustees and board of stewards
had preferred charges against him.
The charges, as listed in the
notice were: Rebellion against the
AME Church, Neglect of Duty, En-
couraging the transfer of St. Marks
AME Church property to private
persons, Improper conduct, Insub-
ordination"
Reverend Chavers termed those
charges as false" and said that
he appealed to Presiding Elder
Hightower and Bishop Greene "to
denounce the high handed, illegal
and gestapo-like methods used in
having him purportedly suspend
ed :. but said Bishop Greene re-
fused to declare the purported trial
unlawful and the purported sus-
pension illegal . and said Presid-
ing Elder has taken over the duties
of aforesaid st. Mark Church."
Rev. Chavers said that on Sun
day April l, Presiding Elder High
tower came into st. Mark Church
and took charge. He conducted
the morning service with Chaplain
c. Sinclair Williams delivering the
message.
During the service, or most of it,
Reverend Chavers was seated in
the audience. "There was several
plain clothes policemen in the aud
ience," he said, "and one of them
even followed me into the study
when | went in to use the tele-
phone.
In declaring the majority of the
church membership to be in his
favor, Reverend Chavers cited the
speech given by Holy Steward w.
O. Smith in his behalf at the be-
ginning of the service. Mr.. Smith
spoke of the extreme shock and
sadness he experienced in learning
of the pastors suspension.
Rev. Chavers asks damages on
the grounds "that the said actions
Of the defendants are libels against
the character and reputation of
the petitioner and his professional
integrity" m
He further said that he was hello

gest man.
Even Mrs. Lie suffered an in
suit in the seating arrangements.
She had to sit farther from the
center of the table reserved for
wives than Mrs. Bunche sat. This
apparently was too much for Mr..
Lie.
He made what he called
friendly and cooperative" COM
plant to Grover Whalen, the man
in charge of seating arrangements
at the dinner. 1t seems that dur
ing this conversation, Whalen
mentioned something about racial
prejudice being the basis of Lies
complaint.
At this point Lie is said to have
denied the accusation and walked
away. Later a spokesman for the
UN secretary general had this to
say:
"Mrs. Lie asked Grover Whalen
to please follow the diplomatic pro-
tocol of Washington in seating
UN officials. Lie said he had
received several complaints on
seating, but he declared they
should be seated according to in
ternal protocol of the UN."
Here is the story Of the dinner:
Jackson advocate. [volume] (Jackson, Miss.) 1939-current, 1951-04-14

1t was held the night of April
2, in the ballroom of the Waldorf
Astoria hotel as testimonial din
ner to President Auriol by Mavor
Vincent Impellitteri of New York.
1t seems that politician Grover
Whalen had his own idea about
protocol, whatever that is, and
knew where he wanted the guests
seated. On the basis, certain per-
sons such as Charles P. Romulo,
Philippine foreign secretary; ia
cob Malik, Russian deputy foreign
minister, and others were closer
to the French leader than was Lie.
The same went for the wives of
distinguished guests. In the UN,
there is strict placing of officials
at all occasions, and never, oh
never does person sit in a bet
ter seat than his superior.
Because this was not followed
in New York, Lie first complained
to John F. Simmons, U. S. depart
ment protocol man, who had moth
ing to do with the seating. Then
he complained to Whalen.
By the weekend the whole story
had been publicized although Lie
did not intend that to happen. In
the meantime, DR.. Bunche has
not been quoted on what he thinks
of the whole mess.

and juniors who rank in the upper
half, top-thirds and upper three
quarters of their classes, respec-
lively. College seniors planning
graduate work will be deferred if
they rank in the upper half of
their class.
AS an alternative to attaining
the required rating in their classes,
students will be deferred if they
! make passing scores on special
aptitude tests which will be given
on nationwide basis during May
and June.
College freshmen, sophomores
and juniors will be deferred if
they score 70 on the tests. Seniors
planning to undertake graduate
studies must score rs.
Students already attending grad
uate school will be deferred if
their institution certifies that they
are receiving satisfactory grades"
Interpretation of what constitutes
satisfactory grades" was left up
to the individual schools.
The deferments will cover the
next academic year. Students al
ready given blanket postponements
from induction during their pre-
sent school years.
To be deferred, students need
only to meet one of the two quail
fications-either rank in the re-
quired portion of their class or
pass the aptitude test. Female
students will not be counted in
determining what constitutes the
deferment portion of the classes.
Draft officials estimated that
the program will result in the de-
fe1ment of approximately 100000
students, in addition to about 203,-
900 already deferred as ROTC
students.

College and High School is playing
Baseball and giving wide publicity
to their teams, and the outstand-

The Blue Print of the Human Life
Christ made it plain to all
Love We one another he said
And be ready to answer my call.
He said | am coming back again
To receive you unto my own
And then you will receive eternal
life
In my Fathers Heavenly home.
He said ] gave my life to save you
To all who believe is my lamb
To those who believe Him not
Their souls He said would be
damned
Jesus suffered on the Cross
Died with nails drove through
his hands
He came to this world to save the
lost
Of all believers of women and
men.
The people know so much today
Have time to get acquainted with
Christ
Yet He shed His blood on a rugged
cross
And gave to this world His life.
Christ said to one and all
am the way the truth and the
light
Yet man has a way of his own
And that is a way to raise He'll
and fight.
Christ came in this world to save
the lost
And not to destroy any man

Now its war from land to land.

These things for your sin would
