Lifting Jesus up everywhere / go
Working to convert souls.
The life that God is calling for
today
Is the same call he made years ago
Jesus said my yoke is easy
And my burdens are light also.
Stop saying it's hard to live the

Gods Hold Word don't read this

1t is just the people that are being

And thousands are going astray.
This modern day has changed

They take money before they take

They made the change in Gods

Do you call this a Holy life.

The lover of money is the root of

And the place for evil is hell.
The holy Bible says if any man
Come after Ne let him deny him

Because the lover of money is the
root of all evil.

Patterson, Gro
Head, Asked TO
Give Up Passport

WASHINGTON, Jan. 7 - The
United States embassy in Paris
has been instructed by the De-
partment of State to have William
L. Patterson, executive secretary
of the Civil Rights Congress, to
surrender his passport.
Patterson is in Paris repeatedly
waiting for the United Nations
General Assembly to reconvene af-
ter the holidays, so he might seek
a hearing on a statement released
on Christmas Eve, in which the
United States has been charged
with policy of genocide toward
Negroes.
The statement was perhaps
based on information contained in
Patterson't new book on genocide
in the United States.
A spokesman from the State De-
partment admitted that Patterson
had been ordered to surrender his
passport to prevent further travel
in Europe, but it would be made
valid for his return to the States.
The Department of State would
not reveal reasons for invalidating
Patterson's passport.
Passports can be issued for use
over a period of two years. 1t was
learned that Patterson made this
trip to France on a passport which
had been obtained at some previous
time but was still valid.
The Department of State would
not give definite information whe-
Their Patterson will be ordered back
to the States Immediately, or if he
will be permitted to stay in Paris
long enough to meet with the Gen
eral Assembly.
No member of the Civil Rights
Congress could be reached in Wash
ington for comment.

RAIGHT
AHEAD"

NEW YORK = (Global) = The
Christmas night fatal bombing in
Florida which took the life of Har-
ny L. Moore, an NAACP state exc
cutive was a most vicious act, and
nothing ought to be left undone to
bring the guilty persons to trial. 1t
is hard to see how the Governor of
Florida can permit the case to go
unsolved insofar as competent and
thorough investigation can solve
it.
The Moore murder is normally
state business, but if the State re-
fuses or fails to act, then some way
must be found for the Government
TO step in and do the job. 1t would
be tragic for the State authorities
to accept a whitewash and let the
matter go as "just one of those
things"
This reporter has never been too
much impressed by the report of
Investigators which too often
writes finish to an inquiry with
a CD slain by person OF persons
unknown"
1t does not appear necessary to
argue that the brutal act in Flori-
ia gives aid and comfort to the
Communists. 1t has always seemed
silly for anyone to use such an
argument in protest against dis
elimination, bigotry and lynching.
FOR it would seem that such argu-
ment is saying simply that if there
were no conflict between us and
the Communist world, then it
might be all right to do these I'M
democratic and unfair things.
Personally, l would rather base
the argument on the facts - on
right and justice for their own
sake. The United States must not
seek to provide equal justice and
opportunity to ALL its citizens be-
cause it knows someone is look
ing critically over it's shoulder. but
it should do so because it is right
that it should.
The United States must stand on
its own feet and live up to its
preachments of peace and goodwill
because it believes in these virtues.
1t must not just put on show-a
false front simply to impress the
outside world. The interest in hon
esty, decency and brotherhood must
be genuine as fundamental philo-
sophy as well as basic program for
action
In Florida last week during an
exchanges of hot statements be-
tween Walter White of the NAA-
CP and Gov. Fuller Warren, the
Florida chief executive, said,
"Moore's death is deplored by every
decent citizen in the State" The
Governor is probably correct, but
'deploring an act is one thing; doing
something about it is another.
What do Governor Warren and the
decent people of Florida intend to
do about Nj. Moore's murder?
1t is a pity that the decent peo-
pie Of Florida and Governor War
rem have simply deplored the death
of Harry Moore; we could only wish
they were indignant. We wish they
were so indignant that they would
want to see the guilty persons
seized and punished.
The perpetrators Of this bastard
ly crime, committed at the time
the world was celebrating the birth
date of the Prince Of Peace, could
turn out to be persons Of influ-
ence. But no one ought to be SPAR
ed. The crime of these persons is
the crime Of the community, for
they are a part of the whole and
the whole is affected by the part.
This was terrible case. the MA
ACP is on solid ground in its bat
