God the Shepherd

No commentary can improve on
it, and this column does not pre-
tend 10 do anything but set down
a foot-note or two TO an inspired
masterpiece The first footnotc is
on thi. picture Of God as Shep-
herd. One thing this brings out is
the vast difference between God
and ourselves. The shepherd can get
along by himself. the sheep can
not The sheep knows only what is
just few feet in front Of him. He
has a poor memory and very poor
judgment. The Shepherd has to
think ahead all the time. There are
notions Of religion that speak of
God as the imam upstairs" and
similar familiar EXPIRE sions There
are notions about God that put him
down on a sort Of buddy buddy
basis with ourselves. How silly
Some people even think that if they
lust pray hard enough that is. II
they want something enough and
keep nagging God long enough, he
is bound to sec it their way and let
them have what they ask,

We eXhort the voters Of the South white
and Negro. to consider thoughtfully and
prayerfully their position in this national
squeeze for political power There are
thousands who resent the present double

The States Rights party does no double

this question they stand squarely on Ar
ticie 10 of the Bill of Rights, which reads ::
The powers not delegated to the United

logically have better understanding and

In the South, it can be said without
contradiction, that the continuation of ra-
clal segregation is the best solution for the
social problem which confronts them TO
the people Of the South the matter is not
academic, abstract or theoretical. On the
contrary, 1t is practical, everyday mat

The States Rights party, even though
IT might be plaintive cry in a political will

right to think and act for themselves in
purely domestic or social matters.

The Paths OF God

Some kinds of religion, even
some kinds Of the Christian reli-
gion think Of God as living in some
sublime heaven watching man as
he tolls along his low and winding
trail The picture in this beloved
Psalm is quite different. The Shep-
herd travels with his sheep. from
one pasture TO another When one
stream or water hole dries UP, the
Shepherd knows where another is,
and leads the flock there So the
Bible reveals to us a God who.

close beside US at every step. So
the paths the flock Of God follow
are his paths, not because he laid
them out but because they are the
paths where he goes. They are not
easy. The peace of God is not free
dom from danger, The paths Of
God go by cliffs where falling
rocks threaten: they lead to springs
and streams that will die in sum-
mer's heat. they descend among
the shadows of death. they are
within sight of God enemies and
ours. But since they are Gods
paths. we walk secure. knowing

Most of the cases, she said, were
inadequately prepared. Park
Police officers conceded that

Under the new system, Park
Police will detail Pvt. Porter

study its screening and referral
practices. Then, Park Police will
make duplicate copies of its
Juvenile reports to be put in the
Metropolitan juvenile files. All
