HARTFORD LETS
ROBSON SING

HARTFORD, Ct. - The Board
Of Education firmly refused to
knuckle under outside influences
that Paul Robson be barred
from the use of Weaver High
School auditorium for a concert.
Twice they had been asked to
rescind their original decision and
twice they refused. The first time
veterans groups demanded that
the Board cancel its permit but
the Board again voted 6 to 3 for
Robson to have the auditorium,
The second time the City Council
passed a resolution that Robson
be banned. And again in a final
meeting the Board stood by its
original decision that Robson be
allowed to sing.

legged to sponsor during the last
80 years. The Indianapolis Times
and other local papers gave full
coverage to the unusually sue
cessful campaign.
While there several other pas
tors of the city tried unsuccess-
fully to prevail upon the Boston
cleric to remain and conduct
similar services for them, but due
to pressing demands and previous
engagements at home and else
where, Rev. Bullock was forced
to relinquish accepting these in
vitationssuntil a later date.
The highest and warmest praise
is given to the members and
friends of Pleasant Hill church

PASTOR EVANGELIST GREAT
SUCCESS IN HOOSIER STATE

Since returning from his mis-
sionary tour of Africa and Europe,
Pastor Rev. S. H. Bullock has
had no let up from his activities
due to overwhelming and popu-
lar demand for his services in
showing moving pictures and Civ
ing lectures concerning his trav-
elogue and experience in distant
lands.
1t is recalled that he spent sew
eral weeks in Liberia, West At
RIGA. and in the principal cities
or Europe, when he made his
extensive missionary tour with
% other members of the pilgrim
age. His lectures and moving
pictures have opened up great
and new field for his talents and
already crowded his schedule as
dynamic pastor and builder.
Not only has the demand for
his services come froM all quar-
tiers of New England, the South
and Middle Western states, but
now they are reaching out to
include the far North and also
the Dominion of Canada. Just
recently, DR.. Bullock has accept
ed engagements to appear in
Maine, New Hampshire and Can
ada.
In addition to the missionary
pictures and lectures, there has
no wdeveloped an ever increas-
ing demand for his services as
an evangelist. He returned to
Boston last week from Indianap-
oils, Ind, where he conducted his
most successful revival for that
city at the First Baptist Church,
Rev. DR.. F. F. Young, pastor.
During the campaign 43 additions
were made to the church, with
80 candidates for Baptism. DR..
Bullock had the high privilege
of addressing clergy in that city,
as well as numerous teacher and
student groups in the weekday
religious educational assemblies.

Importance which happened the

historic Nov. 7th United Nations
General Assembly Special Politi-
cal Committee meeting, called by
the S75 million people of India
and Pakistan to protest racial
discrimination in South Africa.

argument They called it Union
OF South Africa domestic af-
fair" 1t was no business of the
UN.
- - ~
THE SOVIET UNION, of
course, happily leaped into the
wide opening left by the blum
der1hg argument Of South Africa.
It was most obvious that if the
UN could not question Charter
Human Rights violation" in So.
Africa, the UN had no rights to
interfere in Korea or anywhere
else. DR.. Malan's troops would
have no right in Korea, nor
would the British or our own
Government. Or else we were
~Imperialists."
THE RUSSIANS added insult
to injury by claiming that they
had outlawed race discrimina-
ton in their territory which made,
the Union of South Africa look
even worse. AS I watched this
tremendous drama, other UN
delegates representing Cuba, Cen
trail and South America steadily
''read into the record" that race
discrimination had been out
lawed in their countries and they
opposed the DR.. Malan Hitler
policy.
80 &c &c
INDIA is carrying the crusade
in Africa for several reasons. To
begin with, she is protecting In
dian nationals the same as any
Western Power might do in Hong
Kong, Bagdad, or Tripoli. For if
DR.. Malan so dared mistreat
western nationals" he would
have a war on his hands. Thus
India has made this issue an 'in-
ternational" and not a domestic
affair. India has also proven that
DR.. Malan has violated the UN
Charter on Human Rights"
- - -
THE KENYA Africa natives re-
bellion against British is along
the same lines as the native re-
bellion in South Africa. But in
the case of the Kenya and
South African natives they have
no "UN spokesman" and their
colonial rulers claim the issues
are domestic affairs. The fact
is that both the Churchill and
Malan governments are violating
the UN Charter just as much as
Russia Ply dispossessing people of
land and liberty.

facts as he prepares to go to
