LOwly PedagOrue

Our word, pedagOgue, had a very
lowly beginning. It is derived from
the Greek word, "paida agogos,"
which was the designation for a
slave whose duty it was to take
his yoUn- Athenian master to school.
He was never a teacher. like the
modern pedagogue, and usually
was too old or weak to be anything
but an escort.

INTERVENTION IN BIRMINGHAM, ALA.
(Reprint from COurier)

The continued bombing and burning of Negroes homes
Birmingham, Ala warrants Federal intervention.
Law and order have broken down in that city where
Negro property concerned evidenced by the
fact that the police have arrested nobody for these
Federal intervention is warranted because the victims
of these bombings American citizens and the Federal
Government is supposed to protect them when local
thorities will not do So
The people guilty of these bombngs and burnings are
roaming the city without fear of apprehension thumbng
their at the police and the courts laughing loud
over the protests against this vandalism.
The Federal Government intervened in the war between
Chang Kai-Sheks forces from interfering with Soviet
Chinas trade and from raiding the mainland coast.
The Federal Government interfened in the strife be-
tween the Greek Communists and Democrats.
The Federal Government intervened in behalf of the
South Koreans against the North Korean and Soviet Chi
nese and Soviet Chinese aggressors
Why should the Federal Government now hesitate to
being destroyed?
One of the great civil rights the right of residence
and since two lower courts have nvadated Birmnghams
racial zonng laws it is the duty of the law enforcement
agencies to protect Negro homeowners in this right but
this has not been DONE
When local authorities fail to enforce the law it is
to the Federal Government to step in and do so as
has done many times before.
Backed by Administration which processes the deep
est concern with the enforcement of civil rights why does
not the Department of Justice act?

IT'S A BOY!
By Bill KemsIey, Education Director Michi

The birth of is certainly event which this
writer cannot let pass without coment.
Michael Albert weighed in at Woman's Hospital at 8
p M Saturday, March 3. His arrival was of course
casion for pride the part of his parents
But there other emotions too. There's pride and
at being fortunate enough be parents But there's appre
hension and anxiety along with that pride and JOY
We're wondering just what kind of world we have
brought Michael into We're anxious that have the oppor
tunity of enjoying way of life that feel is his birth
right The right to e liberty and the pursuit of happin
decent home good and ample food sufficient cloth
ing adequate medical care full educational opportunities
and security The right of security from fear gnor-
and important the right freedom and justice
and equality
We believe that there is no one, here and now, who
would say that little Michael does not have the right to
enjoy all of those things But what about the future Will
everyone then that he has those rights? It
us, his parents that it is job fight to see
that these things are reserved for him.
And little Michael is relatively fortunate. Through the
accident OF birth he born in America And his parents
have employment at fairly high wages This has assured
him that at least for the foseeabe future he will enjoy
most of these things
But what if he had been born YIN or Kee or Soong
an Asiatic? Or Ivan. Russian? Or Sansaus Pole
Or Angelo. Italian? Or Pierre a Frenchman? Or
Hans. German? Or Juan. Spanard?
Or, suppose he had been born in Africa or South
America Or for that matter suppose he had been born
here in America but with different color skim or into
different religious background?
We're afraid that had he by accident of BIRTH not
been born in America of white employed parents he would
MT have many of the opportunities that he now will enjoy
And we believe too, that because the overwhelming
majority of the little boys and girls who came into the
world with him do not have the opportunities that he
will have that his life too, will be insecure that as long
there those whose minds and bodies are ensaved
that he will never be completely Free
1t is our responsibility his parents to do every
thing in our to eliminate the threat or insecurity
from his life

SEEKING FAITH AND FINDING PEACE
BY Rev. Edmond Renard

Paulst Information Service Washington, D. c.
Because we are what we are-human bengs-the search
for Faith is not simple matter of reading books or listen
ing to talks, weighing arguments pro It is this
yes but vastly more
The Church has always maintained calmly and conf
IDENTIFY that the claims of Christ teach the truth Cod
and the claims of the Church to speak with Chrsts living
voice, can be proved from history and reason.
She has always maintained that from one who searched
with an open mind the city seated the mountain can
not be hid.
Price Is High
But the Church has always recognized also that the
Faith does not bludgeon into bowling before it. If man
does not to believe, he can always find excuses for
not believing.
You see-et face it frankly-it costs man some
thing to accept the Faith To believe in Christ means TO
follow Chrsts teaching and His teachings sometimes in
terere with what considers pleasure or his comfort
or his pride
Plus Equals
Most men will admit that two plus two EQUALS four
costs them nothing to admit it. But to see in Christ the
Way the Truth, and the Life often that man must
change the sempagan life to which he has become accus

Our human nature being what it u.s. if man had
to change his way of life in order to admit that two Mus
two equals four am afraid that almost as manv men
would deny as deny that Christ is God The mind is in
one respect like water: it seeks its own level
That is why right state of heart which means a
right conscience and certain sound moral incnatons is
the 1lrst necessity for the search for Faith
End Necessity
The second requirement is strength of will STRENGTH
OF will needed not precisely that man NAV see tbe
TRUTH but so that he the obstacles in his
own te in his surroundings perhaps in his own edu

Finally, there need for love- the love of truth and
the love OF Cod No who does love the truth and
God will ever find the truth or Cod
right state of heart and strength of will tooethar
with love of truth and God will light the way to Faith
And the Faith is pledge of peace of mind here on earth

VETERANS ADMINISTRATION Office
VIC VET SAYS

Veterans who interrupted CT
bill studies at any time in the
past and later We're called back
to military service, will be per-
mitted to continue training after
discharge even though they get
out after the July 25 cutoff date
for starting training, Veterans Ad-
ministration said today in answer
to number of queries
A veteran need not necessarily
have interrupted his CT Bill course
specifically for the purpose of 60
ing back into uniform, in order
to be entitled to post-cut-off-date
training, VA explained.
In all cases, however, conduct
and progress must have been sat
isfactory. for further training to
be authorized after military duty.
And in all cases, too, training
after the deadline date must be
resumed within a reasonable Pc
riod of time after the veteran re-
turns once again to civilian life
and must be completed by July
%, 1856.
AS an example Of its ruling, VA
cited the case of veteran who
interrupted CT Bill training
which had been going along salts
factorily-in 1949 in order to take
temporary job. In 1860 he was
recalled to active duty. Even
though he gets out after the cut
off date, WA said, he would be
eligible for further CT training,
provided he had necessary entitle-
ment for it.
VA stated that the July rs cut
off date will apply to one class of
World War II veterans who in
terrupted training to reenter serv-
ice. That class consists of those
who have been released from their
second period of service before
the July 25 date.
The July 25 cutoff date applies
to veterans discharged before July
25, 1947. Those discharged from
World War II after the 1947 date
have four years from that dis
charge in which to start training.
