within sight Of a fiery cross OF
the xxx, and they know from
practical experience what it means
to be maltreated. I am disturbed
because the Negro has not come
to realize that his failure TO sup
port the only organization in the
world that is locked in a death
like struggle with the bigots to
secure fun equality for all peo-
pie, may well contribute to our
destruction.
For it is apparent, that until
freedom is realized the world over
and the people win recognize
the brotherhood Of man and the
father-hood Of God, the phrase "a
lasting peace" will have no sig
nificance.

Robins Comments
On Attempt On
Rev. Kings Life

I do not know whether it was
due to DR.. Martin Luther King,
the greatest leader Of our time,
having been stabbed recently, and
was lying in a hospital in critical
conditioner whether it was the
soul stirring sermon preached
by DR.. Floyd Massey, Jr., pastor
IL Pilgrim Baptist Church, that
was responsible for the large sac
rificial donation made by Pill
grim's congregation, Sunday, Sep
TENDER 21st.
Toward conclusion Of DR.. Mas
sey's sermon, on the subject, The
Church and the Rights Of Man, Z"
he compared DR.. King with the
late Mahatma Ghandi Of India.
He said "Ghand brought freedom
to millions and was killed by his
own people. DR.. King does not
mind laying down his life for his
people, and this is the third at
tempt upon his life, Mr.. Massey
said. He said further, IF he can
lay in a hospital wounded for
great cause, we should be able
to give at least a dollar sacrifi-
cially, even II we have to borrow
one"
Who knows as to whether the
S2O2 20 contributed in the name Of
DR.. King will not help to open a
schoolroom door and just one Ne
gro child win have an opportunity
to get an adequate education!
AS we know this money will
go to Legal Redress Committee
Of the NAACP to be used in the
myriads Of pending litigation. We
also know that the funds of this
committee are nearly always de-
pleted. And, particularly during
the crisis, every freedom loving
American should make a sacri-
flee in order that the weighty
bonds of slavery may be removed
from our people.
I am Disturbed because have
recently learned that some of our
people who are most vocal on the
racial question have contributed
only lip service toward helping to
maintain the NAA.C.P. I am dis
turbed because mist of these peo-
pie, who have resorted to out
right complacency, were born

Plea Voiced
By President
On Trade Bill

President Eisenhower told
Congress today that continued
progress In development Of
healthy world trade depends
largely on effective American
leadership.
He made a new argument
for extension and strengthen
Ing OF the Reciprocal Trade Az
reements Act In transmitting
20 Congress a report on opera
ton OF the program during
1887.
The President noted that
United States exports last wear
rose 10 nearly 500 billion. = 10
per cent increase over 1856.
His report said the rise in ex-
ports accounted for about half
the 1857 increase in the vol
ume Of goods and services
produced in the United States.
Important Factor
Foreign business" IL said,
therefore was an important
factor in the prosperity enjoyed
In the United States"
The 1857 experts reached q
hiRh point early in the year
and declined in the last half Of
1857.
Mr.. Eisenhower said the de-
velopmentS In world commerce
recorded in the trade report
dramatic the vital role that
our trade policy has played in
the attainment of economic
progress at home and abroad
and in building cohesion in the
free world"
He added:
Whether the progress that
has been made over the years
in the development Of healthy
world trade can be continued.
whether advances in economic
cooperation abroad as exem-
I plified by the European Com
mon Market can widely benefit
the United States as well as the
participants, whether the best
interests of the United States
1 in a peaceful world can be fos-
I tered-all depend in large
measure on effective trade
/ leadership by this country"
"Selective Program"
The report said negotiations
under the trade agreement act
during 1857 we're only supple
mental or involved adjustments
in existing concessions.
Since the act last was ex-
tended for three years in 1855,
it said reductions in tariffs
have been made on slightly
more than 20 per cent of all
United States imports Of duti-
able goods. It noted that the
program always has been Sc
Elective, with no intention of
cutting tariffs on all imports.
