ssar sssH Correspondent

DETROIT. May 26.-State-
ments relatinp to national anc
international issues will be acted
on by commissioners to the 166tf
General Assembly Of the Pres.
byterian Church, United States
Of America. at the final session.
Of the week-long assembly to.
day.
The $50 commissioners win ex.
press the stand of the 2.5 million
member church on such ques.
tions as the Supreme Court de.
cision abolishing segregation ir
the public schools, communism
the H-bomb and the atom bomb
civil liberties, housing, educa.
ton and juvenile delinquency
Action on the assembly's So.
cial Education and Action Com.
mittee report originally was
scheduled to come before the
commissioners yesterday. But
the 8,000-word printed report
was placed in their hands only
a short time before it was to
be voted on, and they objected
to acting on such an important
and lengthy statement without
more opportunity to study It
It was then decided to postpone
action on the report until to-
day.
Appeal to Colombia.
The commissioners yesterday
approved q resolution calling on
the Colombian government to
grant Protestants in Colombia
"the same degree Of religious
freedom which the Roman Cath
olc minority enjoys under the
Constitution in the United
States"
The statement charged that
adoption by the Colombian gov
ernment Of changes to the con-
stitution recommended by its
Commission on Constitutional
Studies would deprive evangel-
ical Christians Of basic religious
rights.
It declared these changes, rec
commended by the commission
on March 80. would deprive
ProteStants of the freedom to
make "any manifestation of
their religious faith outside of
churches and chapels. to hold
religious gatherings in homes,
to publish magazines, books or
papers, to use the public press
and broadcasting facilities, and
to teach freely in evangelical
education institutions"
In addition. the declaration
said the proposed changes would
violate the universal declaration
Of human rights Of the United
Nations; the charter Of the Or
ganization Of American States,
known as the Charter Of Bogota
and the Mallarino Bullock
Treaty Of 1916 between Colombo
and the United States protecting
the rights Of our Protestant
citizens living in the South
American country.
Tells Of Years Among Koreans.
Two things dominate the
thinking Of Koreans these days,
pr. Horace G. Underwood, jr.,
Of Seoul, told the commissioners
yesterday.
"One is the internal threat
Of communism" he pointed out
1T is not as a theory, but as a
man with q gun, q knife or q

all their thinking. and it is the
reason why they do not have
all the liberties we cherish. But
