MCCARTHY SHOULD BE
FOUGHT

It is important to realize that
there is not strong national SEN
timent against McCarthyism. OPP
position has been confined to a
small, though articulate, section
of the community, and at present
anti-McC arthyism is a minority
movement. The opponents of Nc
Carthyism should realize that it is
time for them to stop talking only
to themselves and only in tones
of commiseration and self-pity.
They should understand that a
great deal can be accomplished
by a resolute minority movement
and that a tremendous education
al job needs to be done if the
American people is to be aroused
to the dangers of McCarthyism.

QUESTION: What is the Fast
of the Seventeenth of Tamuz (oc-
curing this year on June 30th)?
IA. T. Asheville. N. C.)
ANSWER: The Mishnah (Trac-
tate Taanit 3:6) cites five tragic
events that occurred on that par
ticular day. The tablets bearing
the Ten Commandments were
broken by Moses on that day in
his utter desperation over the
idolatrous sin of the Golden Calf,
causing a calamity to fall upon
the people of Israel. The Daily
offering in the Temple called the
"Tamid" ceased on that day in
the days of the first Temple. The
city of Jerusalem was preached
on that day in the days of the
second Temple under the reign of
Titus. Apostomus, the Syrian
General burnt the scrolls of law
on that day. The same tyrant set
up an idol in the temple on that
day bringing dissertation to the
place of holiness. It is held that
this is the fast mentioned by the
Bible in the Book of Zachariah as
the EAST of the fourth month"
(Zachariah 8:19).

QUESTION: What is the period
known as the three weeks?
IF. r., Hendersonville, N. CO..
ANSWER: Beginning with the
fast of the Seventeenth Of Tamuz
a three-week mourning period is
initiated in memory of the de-
struction of the Temple in times
of old. Various restrictions are
leveled during this period. Mar
riages are prohibited. Blessing
over new things is delayed until
after this period. Some even re-
frain from eating meat and wine
(save on the Sabbath) during this
period, although some observe
this latter prohibition only during
the last nine days of this period.
The prophetic portions used for
the Haphtorahs of these weeks
usually are m d e up of texts
which utter the punishments and
destruction which were protested
amongst the people of Israel in
return for their crimes of idolatry
among other sins.

QUESTION:: Is this fast and
mourning period applicable to our
times in light Of the re-establish-
ment of the State of Israel? I'M.
T.. Augusta. CAL
ANSWER: The Bible (Zacha-
riah 8:19) does prophesy that fast
days such as this one shall some
day be converted : into days of
feasting and merriment. One can
hardly say though that all is at
peace in Israel. Certainly, Jeru-
salem is still a thorny problem.
The country of Israel is still
faced with imminent dangers. An
era of universal peace, such as
the prophet did prophesy is not
ours as yet. Finally, of course, it
shall be up to the proper Rabbinic
authorities to proclaim the end
of these fasts when the proper
time does eventually arrive, to
fulfill all the qualifications ac-
cording to Jewish Law and Ira
dition.

from fifty to eight hundred acres.
I was particularly struck by the personal
reported success Of a World War III veteran,
who upon his discharge made a twenty year
loan from Uncle Sam to purchase fifty acre
farm. He paid off the loan in two years and
purchased another fifty acres. His income for
1852 was $4,000 instead Of employing help
er as he did in 1851, he bought a tractor and
followed closely the advice.of his county agri-
cultural agent.
The thing that makes the 5000 attending
this SIND annual conference the finer much
finer Negroes is the fact that they are pro-
ducerx of things the world needs and is willing
to pay for eggs and chickens. peanuts. beef
cattle, milk and other farm products. They
make money and they do some good as first
class citizens.
Typical Of almost all was the $50 acre
farmer, from near Montgomery, who based his
success on the fact that he and his wife had
been married for fifty years, produced their
living from their farm and had always saved
five cents out of every dime they had ever
made He strongly urged that a farmer and
his wife had to work togethe~ to succeed
that changing wives" is detrimental TO sue

OF course the family never joined the church,
and good thing it was, too. In less than 4

This narrowness Of thinking was brought
out when Global News Syndicate presented its

was narrowed down to Negro newspapers and

partly because Of necessity but the Negro has

had to. much to his own disadvantage. We

This brings to mind an incident that oc-

ago 1t was just little place population
5000 There was only Negro family that
settled down In the town Other Negroes would
drift in an out stay a year and move away,
However at one time, for some reason OF
other, about four Negro families happened b

original family had always been members Of
the Methodist church. The mother was secre-
tary of the Missionary society, one of the boys
was superintendent Of the Sunday school, and
one of the girls was superintendent Of the
Summer Vacation Bible school. But the other
Negro families got to gether and decided they
wanted TO organize colored church. The orig
inal family could never understand why. Ger
