(By Randolph l.. White)

For the most part, Negroes continue to
claim they are being denied better jobs
solely because of their race. However, race
MED more responsible positions, and there
is much evidence to believe their claim.
If we wish to be fair about the matter
we will recognize the fact that lack of suf-
ficient skill and not because of his race is
the principal handicap facing anyone who
seeks a job nowaday.
Insofar as the Negro is concerned, COUP
led with his lack of skill is a marked lack
of ambition to attain those skills, or his I'M
willingness to undergo the sacrifices nee
essary to enable him to acquire these skills
to fit him for the job he seeks.
Race comes third, not first or second. 1t
is an obstacle thousands of Negroes have
hurdled in their ;l-oul struggle to earn a
better livelihood. And, they accomplished the
feat by exerting dilgrn, 49,, intelligent eff
fort.
History dealing wi,l iii, Negroes strug-
gle since his emancipation to achieve eco
nomic well-being, point up the fact in many
instances that our forebears, with their
lack of book learning, outstripped thousands
of their descendants in the matter of acquir-
ing sizeable portions of the worlds goods.
All too frequently we find that our people
fail to continue the enterprises founded
by their fathers Many one-man black
smith shop could have been developed into
machine shop. Many one-man barbershop
could have been developed into an imposing
chain of modern sanitary tonsorial parlors.
Many a one-man grocery store could have
developed into great chain Of food marts,
al infinitum.
Today, as never before, opportunities
for the Negro in the industrial, professional
and commercial world are unlimited
However, our theme this week will en-
brace vocational job opportunities. There
is an ever-increasing demand for Negroes
skilled as craftsmen in the building trades
Craftsmen such as carpenters, brick masons,
plastcrers, decorators, painters, and others,
earn from $1,000 to $4,000 a day.
There are also many thousand job oppor-
tunities as automotive, radio-TV repairmen
Several million Negro families own cars
radios or television sets. So in these fields
alone, there are unlimited opportunities for
Negros who qualify themselves as skilled
mechanics.
Nor would the Negro craftman find him

cast of highly trained artists performing in
the midst of appropriate scenery, and no
such performance is possible without \
suitable concert hall. Since Roanoke is the
metropolis of Southwest Virginia, Roanoke
City is morally obligated to provide con-
cert hall that will accommodate that type of
cultural entertainment that has not been
possible to have in Roanoke for many years.
If Roanoke fails to provide an adequate
concert hall for the accommodation of high
class and cultural programs, the citizens
of our proud city, and the thousands and
thousands of people who surround us must
be limited to such entertainment as vaude-
vile, boxing, wrestling, and unframed mu-
steal groups In order for people to really
appreciate the finer things of life, they
must be exposed to the finer things, The stu
dents of our high schools and colleges need
this cultural entertainment. The whole cul-
tural life of our city would be greatly en-
HANGED once these cultural programs are
brought back to the city of Roanoke. The
only way these programs can be brought
back to this community will be by the city
of Roanoke providing an adequate con-
cert hall. Until this is done, one of
Roanoke's greatest needs will not be filled.

His name is Paul, though the
fhdrch very respectfully usually
calls him Saint Paul. He was
city-born, city-bred man. But
as Providence would have it, the
scst important thing that ever
"a @2ned to him came to pass in
&c open country, on a windswept
rc: that is still travelled, the
hsDway from the city of Jerusa-
taI To the city of Damascus, in

M the country; il has happened
since. The story of his conversion
mas been often told; indeed in the
book Of Acts it is told three sepa,
rate times Chapters 8, %, 26),

Paul's. There was no church, no
sreacher, no personal workers
no hymns were sung. There wa
30 meeting at all, no visitation
evangelism. 1t happened like 8
sfrnike of lightning. Inside of fivc
minutes or less, Paul Cor Saul a
he was then called had been
changed from an anti-Christian &c

christian. Being newborn into

Being newborn into the human
ME; there is a period of baby
mod first, when the newborn soul
hardly knows what to do and
aeeds much guidance and help.
But in those few minutes on the
Damascus Road, the whole direc-
lion of his life was changed.

Pauls conversion had some
Unique features, startling and ex-
.raordinary. But the story of it
in Acts 90 reports two questions

0e sion. who are you, Lord?"
slgI What shall / do, Lord?s' A

" I'd Christ. Turning away from
= IS old life is not the whole Of
It and not the most important part
Of it. When a driver on a country
road realizes he has taken the
wrong fork, and turns around to
20 in the other direction, which is
he more important, that he now
mas his back to the wrong direc-
ton or that he has mis- face in the
right direction? Conversion is
from, but more Importantly. con-
version is to. To Christ first of
all. True conversions are not pro-
duced by coming face to face with
one's better self but with Jesus.
And yet, this is only start What
next? That was what Saul went
INTO Damascus to find out. That
was what Ananias came to tell
dim. Saul needed what ali new.
born Christians need, a Christian
friend, Christian fellowship.

Brannan Says COP.
Still Plans Sales Tax
By the Associoted Press

EAU CLAIRE, Wis, Sept. 26.
Charles Brannan, former Sec
retary of Agriculture under the
Truman administration, struck
out at Republican farm price
support policy last night and
said the present administration
still is making plans for a sales
tax.
The Republican adminiStra-
tion, he declared, is setting a
trend for lowering and dropping
parity prices, while the Demo-
cratic Party wants them con-
tinued and strengthened and ex-
tended to perishable products.
Mr.. Brannan'S speech to about
200 persons at a farmers rally
here capped his one-day tour of
the 9th congressional district on
behalf of Lester Johnson of Black
River Falls, Democratic nominee
for the post Of the late Republi-
can Representative Merlin Hull
In a special election October l3.
Mr.. Brannan said there is no
such thing as unmanageahle
farm surpluses. They should be
used to implement our foreign
policy. he added.
He said the present adminis-
tration still is making plans for
a sales tax, moving it back one
step by applying it to manu-
facturers. "I see no earthly
reason why a sales tax can be
of benefit to the farmer or the
consumer in the city" he stated.
