What has no color in it
1t is pure and above all the rest
The Caucasions have blondes and
brunettes you see
And the bright race is their guess.
So let US have peace in the land
God is going to fix things alright
So love We one another, Jesus said
And our burdens will be light.
We can't live in sin and receive
Eternal Rest
The wage of sin is death your pay
is not so we'll
The pay you get for a sinful life
They tell me is a burning hell.
God the Father, Jesus the Son
Hold the power of this world in
their hands
Why not obey Gods Holy Word
Self righteousness cannot stand
If you have the love of God in your
heart
Satisfaction in your home
Segregation cannot over power
Gods power
God will righten all that's wrong.

In reading about Congressman Powell's statement
the only hope is that it will awaken the masses of
Southern White people along with the of Ne
groes to what has been the result of the historic in
fluence of the Republican Party in Southern life.
The one thing that the Republicans rely upon most
to keep the Negro voter is the constant reference

one conclusion in the light of developments following his
DEATH and that is that if Lincoln had been alive while

from which he is yet to he would have been

Bond Issue

Social Service Committee

endorsement to the Detention
Home Bond Issue which will
be voted on by property own
ers March 10. They expressed
the hope the voters would
support it.
This bond issue would pro-
vide detention home facilities
for boys and girls removed
from their homes pending Ell
ther action by the Juvenile
Court or plan by the juvenile
probation authorities. F o r
many years there has been
concern bordering on indig-
nation at the method of deten-
ton. Girls are kept in the
county Jail and boys in crowd
ed "jail-like" quarters to the
rear of the probation offices.
Committee pointed out this
was done Notwithstanding a
provision in the Juvenile
Code that these youths are to
be maintained in a detention
home separate and apart
from any Jail or lookup in
which adults are confined"

The MezUzoh

ARMY LIFE ir israel gives
rise to some problems. Re-
Gently, a soldier in the De-
fense Forces of Israel wrote
to the editor of the army pa
per asking if one has to put
a mezuZah on a tent. This
presents a problem because
the ritual object must be af-
fixed to the doorpOst of any
dwelling occupied by a Jew.
Israel army tents have no
doorposts y In reply, the
editor cited Brigadier Goren,
the army's head chaplain, to
the effect that it all depends
on the tent: Small tents don't
need a mezuzah, but large
tents, accommodating 16 men
or more, should have one-if
it is occupied for at least 30
days. Now the question is
whether the army will issue
mezuzOt for large-tent-dWell'
ers, or whether the tent-dwell
ers will have to provide them
themselves.
