ST. PETERS A.M.E. CHURCH

An air OF reverence, quietness
and deeply spiritual interest, per-
vAded the Holy Communion Ser
vice at st. Peters Sunday. Sister
l.. Parkinson and Brother Tom
Morris assisted at this service.
The singing of He's All I
Need" a gospel number. by the
choir, with Mrs Helen Thomas,
soloist. made the worship In song
program something very special.
The sermon by the pastor, sub
ieCt. The Path of Duty" Bibh-
cal background, John 4;l-l4, dealt
with the story Of Jesus as He
Needs Must Go Through Sam
aria.
Some thoughts TO think through
this week are--When Jesus tou-
ches a life He creates q witness:
When mems hearts are changed,
good government will necessarily
follow. Jesus never destroyed the
law. He only made amendments to
Il; Low thy neighbor was amen
ded by, Love your enemies. An eye
for an eye and q tooth for a tooth
was amended by, Resist not evil;
no man can resist the power OF
love. Jesus raised the religion OF
the Jews to a workable philoso-
ply Of life. When n man In in the
viii Of God. there Is no other way.
he must follow the path OF duty.
Either take a stand for God or
suffer defeat.
The last Sunday in April has
been designated as Corner Stone
Laying Day.
BY the way the calendar of
events Is filling up, IL makes you
believe all Of st. Peters Is grad
ually coming alive. One Of the
newest groups to be reorganized
Is the ACE League group with
Charles Glenn, president. Their
meetings are being held from

good hands.

Defeat Frank McHaIe
BY the Associated Press

INDIANAPOLIS, May II. -
Frank M. McHale, Indianas
Democratic national committee
man for Is years, failed to win
reelection today. He lost to Paul
Butler, South Bend lawyer, and
blamed Democratic Gov. Henry F.
Schricker for the defeat.
In effect, it also was a defeat
for Frank E. Mckinney, Demo-
cratic National Chairman and In
dianapolis banker. who actively
backed Mr.. McHale. Mr.. McHale
and Mr.. Mckinney have been
under fire for what their critics
called influence peddling" -
charges the two men denied. They
admitted making $4,000 profits
on investments of $1,000 each but
said no political influence or i'm
propriety was involved.
Mr.. McHale said Wednesday
that results of today's election
will affect Mckinney as national
chairman"
MIR. Butler polled IA votes to 8
for Mr.. McHale at the State Com
mittee's reorganization meeting,
attended by chairmen and vice
chairmen from the States II
Congressional districts. Mr.. Butler
is third district chairman.
Mr.. McHale in statement
blamed Gov. Henry F. Schricker
/ for his defeat. He said the gover-
nor whom I twice helped nomi-
nate and elect" had led the
Statehouse machine to bring great
pressure on county chairmen to
elect members of the State Com
mittee unfavorable to me-"
Mr.. McHale's defeat probably
will mean he will not serve as
credentials committee chairman
lat the Democratic National Con-
Ivention. He was named to the
job last week.
