Negro Boy Scouts and Cub Scouts of
Troop 35 and Pack Is, respectively, joined
with Charlottesville's white scouts SUM-
day, Nov. g. in distributing throughout thel
city notice to the citizenry reminding theI
people to vote in the November cleo
tons. This notice, in the form of a paper
Liberty Bell was bearing the inscription ::
VOTE as you think. THINK when you
VOTE Tuesday, November a. Today's
Youth Counts On YOU; Use your Free
don. To Vote" These notices were hung
on the doorknob of practically every home
in the city. This reminder to citizens to
vote was issued by the Scouts of America
in cooperation with Freedoms Founda-
ton, Inc. Not only did the Negro Scouts
thoroughly cover the Negro sections Of
the city, they covered a goodly portion Of
the city's white neighborhoods.
DR.. E. N. Jackson, local dentist, Scout
master of Troop 35, started the boys on
their rounds of the city. He is being ably
assisted in his splendid work by Robert

ents Of 4-year-old boy persisted in their
effort to complete the little mission the
child had undertaken. 1t happened on
Bobby's birthday. His father had gone to
town that morning and bought puppy
as Bobby had requested so many times
He named his pup, "Tkippy." They romp-
ed and played on the lawn most of the
day. When it was time to eat supper, Bob
by took Skippy in the house and put him
cn the hearth where bowl of hot food
had been placed by Bobbys mother.
While mother, father and Bobby were
eating, gas explosion rocked the house

got out of the house safely. Suddenly Bob
by dashed for the door and his mother
grabbed him Just in time. He was scream

aside and rushed in to rescue the pup.
When she did not return promptly, the

A Jew Discovers The Cround--Ihe Negro Should

A few days ago we ran into an old
friend, DR.. Vernon Johns, who was pass
ing through Roanoke enroute to Montgom-
cry, Alabama, where for the past several
years he has been pastoring one of the
largest churches in that city.
Dr. Johns is known far and near as
scholar and original thinker. After a few
minutes chat of most friendly nature, he
gave us a pamphlet of a sermon entitled
ga Jew Discovers The Ground--The Negro
Should" After glancing at the title we
asked Dr. Johns what he meant by that
title. In his usual crisp and passionate
manner he said, "The d. Negro doesn't
know that there is ground" DR.. Johns
continued by saying, GAS long as he keeps
his head up in the clouds and continues to
be dependent and consuming people he
will amount to very little in this materi-
alistic and highly industrialized world"
In his sermon DR.. Johns writes, at was
great day for the world when Moses
fled civilization to seek safety in solitude.
It was there and then his resourcefulness
began"
"The fugitive from justice was lost from
the authorities in Egypt, but God followed
the trail of Moses to indian and after for
ty years, this man who was incurably ex-
ploratory, discovered new possibilities in
old places. For forty years, a brook was
a brook and bush was bush. Then one
day the bushes began to burn, and God
began to speak to Moses of the potential
tiles of a wilderness. The ground that
you are standing on is Holy ground 1t
took forty years for Moses to learn the
potentialities of uncrowded land" The
Negro has not learned this lesson in four
The Tribune. [volume] (Roanoke, Va.) 1951-19??, 1952-11-08

hundred years."
i. Some preachers complain about how
long it took the Israelites to get out of the
wilderness. The trouble was not that of
getting the Israelites out of the wilderness,
but getting the wilderness out of the Is
raelites, says Cr. Johns.
This distinguished scholar and minister
says the Negro has the only urban popu-
lation that completely ignores the land
Other city people are dipping their hands
into the seven seas and digging them into
the soil of all the continents. They send
machinery to the prairies and bring from
the prairies it's golden grain. Their tenta-
cles are in the mountains and valleys.
There go their ships; their trains; their
planes! They know the vital sources of
their lives The earth is basic to all cul-
ture!
Statistics show that the Negro has lost
one fifth of his farms during the past ten
years. In the meanwhile, he yaps and fid-
dies while Rome burns but sees no burn
ing bush for himself.
The Negroes political participation is 3
phase of his citizenship rights that ne
should be commended for. But at the same
time he should be reminded that his po-
litical activity is only part of his respon-
sibility. He must be producer as we'll as
q consumer. He must pool and invest his
means in business enterprises that will
help provide gainful employment for him
self and multitudes of other breadwinners.
He must be creative, cooperative and
charitable if in deed he is to be first
class citizen. This, in part, is what DR..
Johns means when he says, ga Jew Dis
covers The Ground--The Negro Should.

A Word We Need

There is an old English word
that is not used often nowadays.
Maybe the reason it is seldom used
is that the thing it means is seldom
met with. It is the word compass
SION" Literally, it means suffer
ing-with." When it Is said by Mat
thew that Jesus had compassion on
the crowds, it means literally that
he knew how they felt. what they
needed, where they hurt; and that
in his own heart he suffered with
them. Their needs were his needs,
their pain his pain. That is COM
passion; but it is not yet the whole
of it. There is something more. An
artist Qet Us say a NOVELTY has
to have compassion. OF sort. Many
novels and stories have been writ
ten, for instance. about bull-fight-
ers, and some of the story-tellers
lave shown a high degree of imag-
NATIVE power. You might almost
fancy they had been bullfighters
t emselves, as to be sure some of
item have been. But few II any
Of these story-writers have done
anything to put stop to the brutal
SPORT of bull-fighting. They feel the
tragedy of the whole business yet
they do not propose to do anything
:.bout it. Compassion, as Jesus felt

as emotion harnessed to action.

The Utmost Need

There is another important fact
about Jesus compassion. One cam
not call It unique, for the best
Christians have shared it. He was
able to see beneath the surface of
things to peoples real needs. The
young man brought by his four
friends to Jesus probably was
thinking chiefly about his helpless
arms and legs. Jesus looked and
saw his helpless soul. The publ
can Matthew may well have felt
sorry for himself because business
was bad, or because he was not
popular. Jesus compassion went
deeper; he felt Matthew's rssl
need-to get away from the publ
can business altogether Compass
sion goes even deeper than SYM
patty; it is spiritual interprets'
ton.

Harrassed and Helpless

HarraSSed and Helpless
The Revised Standard Version
translates beautifully Matthew's
description of the crowds who
moved Jesus to compassion. They
were "harassed and helpless" he
says. The interesting thing is that
ii took Jesus to see this. Sons
could see only that there were .
lot of people, and they took up q
lei of room, and there was hardly
rccm or time for Jesus to eat.

looked hungry. Well, the people
were numerous, they were no
doubt ignorant, and most of them
were chronically iu-fed. But the
point is, the people VINO saw them
in this light did not have COM
passion, all they felt was annoy
ance. The crowds were nuisance.
Jesus felt quite different toward
them. He saw them as they were,

you? Do they brighten you, amuse
you, annoy you or make yot

AFL Promises 10 Halt
Attack on Clio Pickefs
AT AI|is-Cha|mers
BY the Associated Press

TERRE HAUTE, Ind. July 30
An AFL union has agreed to call
off any more attempts to break
through a CIO picket line-to go
to work in the strikebound Allis-
Chalmers jet engine parts plant.
Eight men. including members
from both groups, were hurt in an
outbreak Monday, when some AFL
men forced their way into the
plant.
The AFL withdrawal promise
came at the request of State La
Dor Commissioner Thomas r. Hut
son, who suggested violence
might mean martial law"
Gov. Henry E. Schricker also
asked the AFL operating engi-
neerS to get away from the plant.
The pickets are CIO United Auto
Workers, a union which is official
bargaining agent for the workers.
o. B. Soucie, a regional repre-
sentative of the AFL union, re-
plleQ TO Mr. duCSOn:
Our interest was to protect our
members going back into the
pilot plant. But since it has got
ten out of order and several men
have been hurt, I am hereby COM
plying with your request and with
drawing my organization. I feel
that Terre Haute does not need
National Guard to stop any labor
dispute"
The Indiana National Guard
started its summer training Mon
day at Camp Grayling, Mich.
Mr.. Soucie had said that some
strikers were tired of the JAWS
12-week strike and joined his
union. Mr.. Hutson said Mr..
Soucie's withdrawal pledge was
'in the best interests of Terre
Haute."
Arthur 1ngleS, a Federal con-
ciliator, talked with both manage
ment and CIO representatives
Tuesday but reported no progress
toward a strike settlement. He
said he hopes to get both sides
together in meeting Friday.
The strike for higher wages and
a union shop stopped construction
of the main plant-a $40 million
project.

Defense Steel Needs
May Nearly Double
Usual Take, U. 5. Says

Defense production for the next
six months may nearly double it's
normal take of the Nations steel
output as a result of the crippling
strike.
This was the word today from
Ia high Defense Department off,
cial. He said the increased take
was necessary to allow defense
contractors to catch up.
He estimated the loss in steel
during the strike at 20 million
tons, Of which defense orders
would have taken nearly Is per
cent. To make up the loss the
military's share will have to be
increased to 80 per cent.
The disclosure came as the Mu-
nitions Board moved to speed the
flow of steel into channels manu.
featuring weapons. A special STAFF
OF 80 officers will stay at steel
mills to see that the defense or
ders get first crack at any new
steel and supplies will be flown
to spots where it is urgently
needed.
Military procurement officials
were authorized to negotiate
amended contracts and delivery
schedules with military suppliers.
Additional payments to cover over
time for extra shift operations
were approved.
A Defense Department spokes-
man said that while steel for the
military will cost little more than
before the strike. it is not antici-
pated that a deficiency appropri-
alton will be required.
