the spirit of these detectives can
not be achieved as result of the
action of any one person, but that
all must plan and work together
to win the victories and not be
content until the goal has been
reached.
In replying to Mr.. Eisenhower's
letter. Powell called the Presi-
dents answer a Magma Charta

He expressed his satisfaction at
the Presidents statement and
agreed that these detectives could
not be obtained by any one in
dividual, but he said there are
several things which the executive
branch of the government can do
without waiting for any action
from the legislative or judicial
branches. He suggested:
III The President can con-
tinue and implement the (Fed-
eraD Fair Employment Prac-
tice Commission established by
Executive Order 1880, stated
Powell's letter.
(2) He can continue and
strengthen the Committee on
Government Contract Compli-
ance.
(3)The policy of segregation
in shore establishments of the
Navy can be changed.
a. The policy of the Federal
Housing and Home Finance
Agency of giving aid TO segre-
gated housing can be changed
by executive action.

A New Church Il Built BY
Rev. M. l.. Simmons

-Four years ago we heard Bish-
op George w. Baber say. in part,
And / am sending you TO st.
Peters church In Minneapolis
and ! expect great things OF you,
including a new church."
Everyone turned 10 see who
the new preacher was. He was
such little man sent 10 do such
a big Job we wondered what was
going TO happen.
After the conference closed In
September. 19a9. Rev. Martin
Luther Simmons arrived in Min
neapoiis and took the rcins Of his
new charge. BY November OF 1870
he had launched a building fund
drive, asking each member TO
make q definite pledge.
Ever since that day the drive
has grown by leaps and bounds,
and Rev Simmons can depend on
most Of the membership TO PAY
their pledges on the second sun
day in the month, which is called
Emphasis Day. That means he
really emphasizes the paying of
pldeges that Sunday
Pledges are accepted any Sun
day during the month and during
all OF these months tho amount
has never been less than 81 900
per month on the building fund
alone.
A building fund committee was
organized and later. all OF the Of
ficials of the church and all OF the
presidents of all Of the auxiliaries
were added TO the membership of
this committee and II "a now
called the Church council"
With this group funotioning,
every member has all OF the facts

The night OF the hurricane. last
July rs. the church council held
their regular meeting at the par
sonage and while the wind was
blowing down trees and banging
doors in the parsonage, business
went on as tho nothing had hap
pened.
Mrs. Simmons ran around clos
ing doors and windows. We all
knew II was q terrible storm, but
kept right on with the meet.

meeting and the storm to find
how terrific a storm II was.
1t Is remarkable how the peo-
Pile rally TO the pastors every
call. Their faith In him has beer
assured by the very business lik,
way he has conducted all OF thu
affairs pertaining TO the church
The books are open for inspection
and they are kept by the very ef
ficient Miss Martha Kay.
We are happy TO say there has
never been a dissenting vote re
garding the pastors program
and the peope have given a large
percentage of their cooperation,
One hundred and fifty new
members have been added to st.
Peters The interest Is mounting
steadily and two new clubs. two
choirs. and Youth Fellowship
group have been organized.
There has also been a large In
crease In members In all OF the or
CARNATIONS.
Every window in the new
church, the pulpit, fountain and
clocks were given as memorials
to deceased relatives.
Peace and harmony Ii evident

of health, Education and Welfare,
TO the Secretary OF Defense,
Charles +. Wilson, requesting that
he refuse TO carry out the Presi-
dents order regarding integra-

Rep. Powell also reminded the
President OF letter which was
supposed TO have been sent to the
White House by the Secretary Of
the Navy Anderson admitting
that racial segregation does exist
s. c.. and Norfolk, Va and ex-
in the navy yards in Charleston,
pressing the Nays intention to
continue this policy.
He further informed Mr.. Eisen-
hover of correspondence he had
received from Admiral Boone,
chief medical officers of the Vet
Grams Administration reaffirming
the policy OF segregation in Vet
Grams hospitals in certain areas
and declaring that such policies
would be maintained 10 conform
with local customs"
In reply to these situations, the
President said he would carry out
every pledge which he has made
in regard to segregation. He said:
II shall continue 20 devote my
earnest efforts to advance both
the spirit as well as the fact OF
equality, believe that the fight
to achieve tangible results will be
increasingly successful"

any of their business or not, and
II you do know such people, you
probably do not like them very

asks you TO do so. or when there
Is need OF command and nobody is
supplying that need.

Riches Are Risky

Actually there are many more
warnings against wealth, III the
Bible. than against poverty The
HAYES are in more spiritual
peril than the "have-not s." Why
this is, can be shortly stated A
minister who had had many con
facts among the super-rich Of one
Of America S Gold Coasts remarked
TO the writer that wealth makes
the first generation hard the sec

stantly tempted TO habits. diver

session Of wealth tends to make

back on Jesus, he can neither see
clearly his own best interest nor

ing TO Matthew. Jesus said that ii
IS harder for rich man to enter
Gods Kingdom that is. to have
eternal life. or to be saved than
for a camel to get through a

All sorts Of efforts have been
made to show that Jesus could not
possibly have meant this. The
words translated camel" and
needles eye Could possibly
mean something else, but they
probably don't We may as well
face it. Jesus meant to say that
the only way a camel could get
through a needles eye S by mira

for a rich man TO enter the King

What the legal outcome of both Of these
situations will be, no editor can pre-
dict. However. Judging from the reaction
of football fans during the last season, it
seems safe to assume that most football
fans prefer broadened television program
ming of gridiron contests
We have never been able to understand
the objection to television of football games,
both professional and amateur, in areas
where the teams involved do not normally
draw any considerable number of fans. For
example, we can see no objection to the
televising of the Pennsy lvania- Army game
in the South, Midwest and West. Nor can
we see any logical objection to the televis-
ing Of the Michigan State-Notre Dame game
in the East, South, Southwest or Far West.
likewise, we see no objection to the tele-
vising of the Georgia Georgia Tech game
anywhere in the Southeast
1t is to be hoped that the tclevising of
football will be broadened The present
limitations seem severe and certainly pre-
vent millions of fans from witnessing the
best games of the year-fans who would
not be able to watch the game from the
stands under any circumstances.

at the same time one Of the most

what hounds were fashioned to
do. They not only have to run

that he has run enough. he'll
SIMPLY quit and turn to put up
a whale of a fight 1t is one Of
The most curious animal reactions
I know of
According TO outdoor writer
Byron Dalyvynplc. the coyote has
one of the strangeSt histories this
continent ever produced. A cen
Jury ago it was almost unknown
east OF the prairies. AS Stockmcn,
%heepmen and farmers moved i'll
both men and coyotes felt each
others pressues. SO destructive
were the coyotes that the greatest
mass poisoning project was car
ried on for almost quarter of
century
Nobody knows how many CO.
votes we're killed but when it
was all over there still were plenty
Of coyotes left, They ilad become
tougher, far more crafty and
determined. And they spread out.
1t was not long until they were up
IN Alaska where none had been
before and as far south as Costa
Rica. a distance OF over 1000
miles A few years ago coyotes be-
gan TO be sighted all the way
from Maine to Florida To-day in
the East the So-called brush
wolf is fairly common and hunt
ed with hounds by those who have
what il takes physically to follow
this sport.
An interesting size light on how
The coyote was able to survive
and to extend his domain so
greatly is revealed III many stories
concerning his toughneSS. Expert
FOX trappcrs will tell you that
almost never is a fox caught that

the tough coyote can take 1t. He
will eat practically anything. from
grass and berries to rabbits. mice
and carrion. And our new CO.

much changed in habit. The aver
age western coyote will weigh
from 90 to possibly IS pounds
Eastern and Great Lakes animals
have been taken that weighed as
much as so pounds. That is a
right hefty chunk of animal.
