"As a lawyer, you ought to
know that, and If you don't know
it, you ought to be humble enough
to go to some Baptist preacher
and learn it,"
Pointing out that under the
Jackson administration the church
had gotten rid of its mortgage and
was in the best financial status in
its history, the officers said that
the things for which we at Olivet
are most happy, is that no longer
are political meetings held in our
church.
while we have nothing against
you as the Republican Committee
man of the Third ward. we do
not need you to tell us how to run
the church, for the o..
church is too big to deal with as
precinct of any city ward, and
we feel that our pastor is too
great a religious statesman and
leader to serve as anyone's pre-
cinct captain"

Baptist church"
Defending Jackson, the state
ment said that while "he Jack
SOM has given to us wise counsel
as a business executive, he has
left all business decisions to the
will of the board, always urging
us to act in the best interest of
the olivet church. All property
that has been acquired by the
church during the past 10 years
was purchased by recommends
ton of the official board and ap-
proved by the church"
The statement by the officers of
the church came as a surprise to
press observers. Following the
filing of the suit some three weeks
ago, officers at Olivet refused to
make any comment on the charg-
es.
Evidently anticipating that the
plaintiffs, some of whom had been
members of the church for so
years, would seek reinstatement,
the officers of the church in an
open letter to Republican commit
teeman William f. King, supposed
leader of the group filing suit,
said.
"All of you were given a chance
to mend your ways and return to
the church. Many of the members
who had been misled and deceived
by you and your group returned,
made acknowledgement, and were
received into the full fellowship in
the church.
you and those associated with
you, still have the right to apply
for membership in the church d.
But, you will never get back into
the church by any others means
than the vote of said church"
The civil court cannot put you
and your followers back into the
church. The truth is. no external
authority. religious or civil, has
that power. as long as we live un-
