DIR. JACKSON SAYS
NATION SHOULD DECIDE

Winston Salem, ". c. amp
DR.. J. II. Jackson, president Oh
the National Baptist Convention.
US.A., Inc, charged the nation,
and especially the southern part,
to make the decision as TO wheth-
err the United States shall be a ma
ton Of law and order, or a nation
in revolt against its own constitu-
ton.
The prominent religious leader
said America is now regarded as
the leader Of the free world. At
home now we are confronted with
the test as TO whether the nation
believes In freedom for all peoples,
and democracy as a way Of life for
every citizen.
we are at this time, locked in
deadly battle against the forces Of
communism. We can win in this
struggle only by sticking to our
ideas Of freedom; our Federal con-
Constitution. and a rule of law
over against the corruption OF die
tatorship and the disregard for
law and order"
DIR. jackson continued his
speech by saying, "America's
battle against communism will
be won or lost in the southern
states Of these United States.
The speaker pointed out that the
most dangerous and most deadly
type of un-American activity is
that which boldly disrespects the
courts Of law and openly opposes
the fundamental principles of the
Federal Constitution.

1t 50 happened that / was one
among the first automobile driv-
ers in Caldwell and Noble county
that time was the middle OF
the year 1910. At that time and
for many years following court
esy and the law required we
drivers TO grant the right-of-way
to pedestrians crossing street
at an intersection, and the pro-
visions of the law were strictly
adhered to by drivers. But
today, with the same law still
in effect, many drivers, particul-
arly some of the younger ones,
seemingly disregard the law and
have no regard for the safety of
pedestrians.
This is particularly true with
conditions at the intersection of
North and West streets the
main point where pedestrians
should be provided with two
heads and four eyes, that they
can look in as many directions
at the same time for their own
safety. This our local officials
and officers we'll know but they
seemingly have only one eye and
that partially blind. The time for
action has long since passed.
Yours for safety for all,

Dear Editor:

0SdT EulLOT.
Have read and heard much
discussion recently as to the inn
portance of water baptism as
found in the Bible. l do not wish
to minimize it much less to say
that it is not essential to saliva
ton.
However, l am sure there is
a much greater baptism set
forth in Gods holy word. For
brevity l only wish to point out
two verses although there are
many more to back up the bap.
tism of the Holy Ghost.
In the third chapter of St
Matthew the 18th verse, you will
find these words II indeed bap-
tise you with water unto repen-
tance, but he that cometh after
me is mightier than /, whose
shoes | am not worthy to bear:
he shall baptise you with the
Holy Ghost and with fire"
