cord as stating that the church
clause is contrary to the principles
Of religious freedom.
And at Pretoria University, DR..
Ben Harais, professor of theology,
and With DR.. Keet another Of the
church's foremost theologians, has
declared that South Africa dare
not forbid people Of other races to
worship in the church.
Whether the Dutch Reformed
Church, which is an essentially
Afrikaner institution in South A.
RIGA, will split openly with the
government on this issue appears
doubtful, however. For in the name
Of Afrikaner unity it supports the
government strongly and is unlike
ly to develop a quarrel which would
be politically harmful to the gov
eminent.
Most of the English" churches
have been highly vocal in. protest.
Public protest meetings have been
held across the country. "Black

demonstration against the legisla-

Part Of Campaign
The church clause, however, is
but one clause of a government bill
which DIR. Norwood openly admits
is intended to serve all social con-
tact and mixing between whites
and nonwhites. The government
maintains that what little of such
mixing there is in South Africa
is undesirable and in conflict with
its overall segregation policy.
In debate on the bill, DIR. Yer
woerd has stated: 81 accept that
| must have contact with the Afri-
can, but it is that of Guardian. And
it will be so throughout the whole
of society. You do not need to
maintain contact by mixed meet
ings."

without regard to color. More than
20 of these bodies are staging a
protest march through Cape
Towns streets May 10 and are
arranging a national conference to
oppose the legislation.
Some of the organizations, such
as the Red Cross, prohibit color
bar in their constitutions and are
concerned lest any government
action affect their affiliation with
international Red Cross, through
which some of their most important
work is done.
Some of the organizations pro-

Even in the Dutch Reformed
Church, however, there appear to
be some misgivings over Native
Affairs Minister Hendrick F. YER
words Church clause" as the
controversial legislation has come
to be known. DR.. Verwoerd appar-
emily removed the fears Of a de-
putation from the Dutch Reform
ed Church sent to interview him on
the issue and convinced its men,
bers, according to their statement
issued afterwards, that his plan
in no way interferred with church
autonomy.
Amendment Quoted
To bolster his argument he
pointed out that he had already
amended the original legislation
which initially puts the onus on
churches not to conduct services
with nonwhites present if the Ma
tive Affairs Minister so decreed.
In the new draft the onus is
put on nonwhites themselves not
to attend white services is so pro-
scribed and this, DR.. Verwoerd
maintains, leaves the churches
themselves free of interference.
Aim of the legislation is to bar
nonwhites from attending white
churches if their presence causes
a juisance." The government has
steadfastly maintained that this
is only routine legislation and that
the churches are amply safeguard
ed by the fact that before DR.. Yer
woerd can affect such bans he must
gain concurrence of the local au.
thority-the city or town council.
Government opponents, however
charge that there are ample laws
on the statue books to cope with
misunderstanding Africans, and al
so that local authorities are easily
pressured by central government
with exercises considerable con.
troll over many of their affairs.
Although the government argu.
ment appears to have satisfied
the Dutch Reformed Church's Of
fetal deputation, there are still
some protests from within the
church.

HOUSE DOCTOR
BY HERMAN BAUM

"a house that / have pur-
chased has. the siding split and
damaged in several places where
the former owner had attached
a. crude shed. This spoils the
appearance Of the house. Could
you explain how one goes about
making these repairs?" S. L. S.
writes.
Answer - The only involved
part Of this job is locating new
siding material that exactly
matches the older siding now on
the house. Way back before we
began to make the world safe
for democracy. siding was ordi-
nary lumber having the same
thickness throughout.
Then q bright-eyed genius
concocted novelty siding" which
had one thick and one thin edge.
While these patterns are now
standardized. the products Of
different mills will vary enough
In dimensions to make a repair
job look like q patch. So, you
will have to measure the old
siding carefully and search until
you find some that matches.
Damaged sections of the old
siding should be removed. To
do this, a wood chisel not less
than Ia inches wide, is driven
up under the siding just above
the damaged section so as to
slightly lift this board. Then
hammer the board back and the
nail heads will protrude so they
can be pulled. Be careful not
to split the wood. Drive wood
wedges under the loose board
to give space for working then
use a try-sQuare for marking the
lines where the damaged board
win be cut out.
At Least A Foot
Even though the damage may
extend only an inch or two. the
section removed should not be
less than a foot long. If your
house is built with wood sheath
ing under the siding, the cuts
can be located at any convenient
point. but If there is no sheath
ing, then the cuts must be made
flush with the edges of the studs
On each side Of the removed Sec
ton. An exploratory opening
may have to be. made first but
the nails should locate the APP
proximate center Of the studs.
A keyhole saw is used for max
ing the cuts.
Where the sheathing is omit
ted. the next operation is to nail
wood cleats against the studs
inside the opening that you have
made in the wall. Cleats should
be cut from 2x4s and they should
extend an inch or two above the
top Of the opening. Nail them
on with Sd common nails.
The success of the repair win
depend largely upon accuracy
with which you cut the new Sec
ton. It should be such a snug
ut that you must lightly tap the
board into place. If you fail to
accomplish this on the first try,
It is best if you discard the Sec
ton and try again.
Before inserting this new
wood. give it a printing coat of
paint on all sides and edges.
Also. paint the cut edges Of the
old siding. Allow the paint toI
dry. You can now put the new
siding into place and fasten it
with rust-proof siding nails. To-
make certain that the repair isl
water-tight, press putty into the
joints and then paint the re-
paired areas.
