Presbyterian Church in Column
Ga, June 7. A judicial COM
mission Of the Southwest Geor-
gia Presbyetry removed him
after investigating reports of
dissension among the 1900
members Of his congregation.
Opposition cropped up as a
result Of an article Mr.. McNeill
wrote for a May, 1857 issue Of
Look Magazine. In 1t he dis
cussed ways Of bringing racial
harmony to the South through
"a creative contact between
leaders Of both races.
The Bream congregation
first called Mr.. Mcneil in
April, then reaffirmed the in
vitation when he was dismissed.

II can say things to them
that nobody else can say. And
I give it to them. And they

Mrs. Duborg fears she has &C
complished nothing through her
decades Of prison evangelism.
But those who have observed
her work disagree.
Drunkard Reforms
Jailer ]. C. Gill recalls that
she once made a habitual
drunkard promise to attend
church after his release. He
kept his promise, later married
and became a respected citizen
in Alexandria.
The Rev. Obie Harrup, pas
tor Of the Assembly Of God
Church. where Mrs. Duborg
still teaches a Bible class each
Sunday. reports that as a con-
sequence of her visits, pris-
oners sometimes write request
ing that he come to counsel
them.
Mrs. Edith Shram, with
whom Mrs. Duborg now lives
and who has accompanied her
to the jail for the past II years,
says that after one Of the rare
weeks when she has missed q
visit, the prisoners wanted to
know where she was.
They also ask her questions
about the Bible and their
future.
Can a murderer be for
given?" one asked.
At SO, Mrs. Duborg is lively,
alert and Serenely sure of her
own future. And she is de-
termined to continue trying to
help those whose future is far
more doubtful than her own.

Several Routes Studied
For Link to Baltimore

The Maryland State Roads
Commission will reveal Thurs
day night a number of routes
under study for a new, third
highway linking Baltimore and
Washington.
The Commission has made
public a map showing the gen.
eral area of the routes of the
planned eXpressway to be
known as Interstate Route 95.
A public hearing will be held
BIT 8 pm. at the National
Guard Armory in Laurel, Md.
: The road, scheduled for COM
pletion in the late 1905, runs
generally to the west of and
parallel to Route l and the
Baltimore Washington park
way.
!. 1t will be part of a new
major expressway extending
from Maine to Miami. The
Northeastern expreSsway from
Baltimore City to the Della
ware line also will be part of
the big East-Coast North-South
toute.
+; The roads construction is
planned in the closing years
Of Maryland's 15-year road
building program.
But sections near the Bal
timore and Washington ends
probably will be built sooner
to help ease commuter traffic
in the two metropolitan areas.
Start of construction, how
ever, is indefinite, due to i'm
passe in the Federal Interstate
program because of congress
bional refusal to go along with
a proposed 1.5-cent increase in
gasoline taxes.

 It may be lot of the fishermen will resent his version of the affair when he said he walked out be- cause he was dealing with bunch of drunken fishermen.
 It is obvious he has "goofed" all down the line since returning -the argumentative attitude dis played is a sure way to influence people-but, unfortunately, not for your cause, but against you.

 .. The meeting wound up in an uproar with very little accom- plished. Rep. Pete Deveau had called the meeting, and members wanted to know why he had call ed it. An argument ensued and the representative left the meet ing.
 We were called to task this week by said representative, who said we "goofed" in reporting the meeting. We don't know how ex- actly, and probably never will. We omitted to state however. that one of the arguments was over the appointment of a representative on the fisheries board from this area without the fishermen hav- ing a word to say about the ap- 'pointment
