Jackson, Mississippi
Dear Percy:
Your thoughtfulness in sending
me a copy of your editorial COM
ment on my statement to the
Theater Owners Association. is
heartily appreciated.
The tragedy of this situation is
daily becoming more apparent and
relationship between the races will
continue to deteriorate until re-
sponsible local Negro leadership as
serts itself.
1t takes courage such as your
are demonstrating to bring such
a situation about, but the possible
good to be accomplished for your
people makes it greatly worth
while.
Sincerely,
Boyd Campbell

PARISH STREET SAIUnDA1
NIGHT: 1t is almost impossible
for a bunch Of Aunt Haggar's Chill
luns to git together and some good
brother fail to bring up something
that happened at the house OF
worship where he pays dues and
raises money for the pastors An
niversary every year. The truth
of this was brought out Saturday
night when we got together with
a bunch of the boys in a cafe on
the north end Of the Avenoo to
drink beer and gossip +. a while.
One good brother got to talking
about the big collection that they
took up in his church last Sunday
and how pleased the pastor and
all the members was that so much
money was turned into the hands
of the treasurer. The brother
that was talking said that he is
one of the people that took up
the collection and that he noticed
that one thing that made the col
lection so big was that some of
the sinful brothers what the
preacher talks about all the time
gave a whole lot of money. Now
the good brother that started the
conversation wanted us to tell him
whether or not it was right for
the church folks to take up money
from folks that gamble and sell
whiskey and SIGH stuff as that.
Well, another brother spoke right
out and said that somewhere it
says dat the Lord moves in mys-
ferrous ways when he gifts ready
to do something, and we ought not
to try to figger out everything that
happens. We were forced to agree
with the speaker a whole lot OF
dat money that them sinful folks
puts in church is supposed to be
the Lords in the first place cause
a whole lot of people whose names
is on the church books spend a
whole lot of money with the broth
ers that runs the houses of cor
ruption and he has to bring it to
the church for the people who was
supposed to take in there in the
first place. Dis world shore is a
mess amt it.????
DISTINGUISHED VISITOR:
Mr.. Briscoe, the Public Relations
Specialist of the United States De-
partment of Agriculture, Washing
ton, D. c., was visitor in the
office of the Advocate this week.
He stopped by en- route back to
Washington from meeting down
in Texas to tell me to keep on
carrying on just like am carry
ing on now.
PRAYER FOR THE BIRDS:
Somebody or something woke me
up around 430 the other morning
and l sat out on the front gallery
and listened to the beauty of a
mccking bird as he went through
the full scale of his repertoire.
AS l listened the only thing could
think of was a prayer of thanks
for the maker and the sender of
the hooking birds.
SOMETHING THAT MADE ME-
LAFF: One of my friends was
talking about all of mine and his
friends whose done got caught up
in that furniture business when all
at once he said to me, "The only
thing I'm gonna ever buy from
anybody that I don't know exactly
how they got it is ham, a slab
of bacon or something else to eat.

of 1923 now active. But last
Spring only 1853 candidates for
the ministry were graduated
from the seminaries.
Increase of 500 Needed
Interpreted in percentages.
the United Lutheran Church
needs go per cent more graduates
from our Summaries" DR..
Strempke explained.
"On the basis of current trends
of growth, it can conservatively
be estimated that in 10 years
our church could call into serV-
ice rs per cent more men than
are now annually graduating
from our seminaries.
Social Security benefits have
accelerated the increase in num-
bers of ministers retiring at SIS,
DR.. Strempke also observed.
Last year % ministers retired
from service" he said. This year
the same number retired in the
single month of July"
Circulation Increased
The denominations official
magazine, the Lutheran, in
creased its circulation from $780,
600 two years ago to 10000 this
year and plans to reach the rec
ord total of 100000 by 1857, the
convention was told today.
Steps toward developing writ
ers for church publications were
taken during the last year, Carl
N. Weber, president of the Board
of Publications, said.
He pointed out that all but
two seminaries were visited by
editorial writer's of the board to
discuss this field with seminari-
ans and faculty members.

Action on the recommended
tions will be taken Monday by
the conventions TOO delegates
representing 2,270,0OO members
Equality Stressed
That section of the report
calling on individual churches to
help solve the indignation prob
lem by accepting persons of diff
ferent races into their member
ship, said:
More effective than her teach
ing will be the church's dem
onstration in her own life Of the
reality of a Christian COM
munity. BY our demonstration
of inteeration in our churches,
would it not be possible to i'm
prove the atmosphere in which
we work out the achievement of
the constitutional goal Of equal
ity for all citizens?"
Declaring the Supreme Courts
decision was in accord with
Lutheran beliefs, the report said,
THE courts Judgment that seq
regated education is basically
unequal. and therefore uncon-
stitutional, thus presents Chris
tan people with the challenge
to bring our Nations educational
practices into accord with our
Christian and Democratic con-
victions."
Cites Ethical Grounds
1t then went on to insist that
"the attitude of Christian people
will be decisive in achieving a
solution.
In the first place, there is
genuine Christian agreement
supporting the Supreme Court
decision. which support is based
on clear ethical grounds.
Secondly, there is profound
Christion obligation to support
and uphold just and responsible
governmental authority"
The lengthy report also urged
that the Lutheran Church give
specific approval to birth con-
troll, encourage "responsibly
planned" parenthood, n d
broaden its laws to permit re-
marriage of others than the in
nocent parties to divorce.
Need for Ministers
There is an urgent need for
more ministers and the theologi-
cal seminaries are not turning
the mout fast enough to sup
ply this lack, DR.. Vernon
Strempke, of Washington, asso-
ciate secretary of the denomina-
TONS Board of Higher Educa-
ton, told the convention today.
The current need comes to
$4,000 ministers, consisting of
more than $4,000 vacant pulpits
and 10000 other crucial minis
tries. Last Spring only $500
men were graduated from Prot
estant Seminaries, only ESQ more
than in 1850.
The United Lutheran Church
did not feel the urgency until
1852, when enrollments in its
seminaries fell off substantially
AT present, DR.. Strempke pointed
out, the denomination needs 378
new pastors to add to the total

Car And Garage
Damaged By Fire

The 1850 Mercury automobile
owned by Dempsey Fleming, and
the garage at his home at Mt. Lake
Park which housed it, were par
TALLY destroyed by fire last Thurs
day evening about 10 o'clock.
The Oakland firemen were called
and succeeded in putting out the
blaze but not before both the ga
rage and car were badly damaged.
Firemen estimated $500 damage to
the building and 5000 to its contents.
1t was thought that the fire had
started from faulty wiring. The
blaze seemed to start from under
the hood, firemen said.
Oakland firemen also answered
a call from Bayard, w. Va, on Mon
day evening about $50 where it
was thought a flue fire might get
beyond control. However, the fire
men were stopped at Gormania
and sent back to Oakland, since the
fire already had been eXtinguished.

Hunting and fishing are big business. We have few
statistics show just how big and how fortunate this
could having its share of the total overall picture
Thirty-three million Americans hunt and fish Six bill
lion dollars spent annually hunting and fishing in the
store sales an percent greater than the sale of
household appliances including radios and teevision sets
The immensely of the sport hard believe and yet it
should be difficult when the influx of hunters
to this county during every deer season.
The Maryland State Planning Commission has estimated
that S1O6O00 spent annually in Western Maryland alone
1t no exaggeraton say that there 5000
hunters woodlands of Garrett county this week Most
of them will spend $50 of them lot than that
and some less.
Hunting lands provide valuable economic assistance to
the people of this county and fortunate in having
much land available to hunters Many times the wood
land ustaby disturbed about certain hunters
Many apparently have respect for the
property of others They will fences leave gates Open
farmers by mistake and then appear to
pay the damage There have been times when the bullets
hunters gone through farm home So in many
land
And yet, if system of education could be used,
some of ethics that everybody would be
better off The hunters who attention to the
rights of others surely in the minority. Perhaps
method could be found eliminate the irresponsible hunter
But in spite of this unpleasant phase there is
much to considered that is worthwhile We could cult
vate of this business of hunting and fishing 1t really
boost to of the county and should be nurtured
and taken of.

Salk Vaccine Now
In Plentiful Supply

Enough Salk vaccine is now in
the hands of the Garrett County
Health department to provide g.
800 persons with the polio shots"
it was announced by DR.. Arthur
Jones, county health officer.
The vaccine is provided under
the Federal government program
and DR.. Jones said any person up
through 10 years of age is entitled
to receive the treatment.
Government statistics show that
incidence of paralytic polio is eX-
tremely low where individuals have
had two or more immunizations
Dr. Jones attended meeting of
health officers of the state recently
and he said a report of Garrett
county's record on immunizations
for polio was not so good Partic-
ularly the program above the sixth
grade was tagging considerably.
The government program will end
about July l, 1857, and after that
time the vaccine will be available
only through private sources, he
said. Because of the time limit on
the government program he advised
that persons should get the first two
injections before the last of Janu-
airy, in order to come under the
Federal program.
