ABUNDANT LIFE
44a4zasz by ORAL ROBERTS
HOW TO DEFEAT AN INFERIORITY COMPLEX

from inner resources.
Mrs. ]. D. said that for years
she had felt quite plain"
around her sisters. They were so
charming and she felt unattrac-
tive.
But one day a friend said,
'You are not ugly. And if you
will pray for Gods help, you can
really become the attractive per-
son that you want to be-
And SO this young lady began
to think and believe positively.
She tried to be friendly and
thoughtful of others. Right
thinking and radiant living was
a continuous ambition of her life.
She painted a mental picture
of her hopes and continued to
affirm them over and over, be-
ieving that these would come
into being. And, of course, in
her prayers she asked God to
help her.
These things happened as she
wished them. Today she is mar
RED, happy and very popular.
Something wonderful can also
happen to you. You may be sick,
crippled, ugly, afraid or badly
worried. But get a faith-image
in your heart of what you want
to be. Continue to visualize this
and tell yourself over and over
that through Gods help the things
you need and desire will happen
to you.
Then believe them. If you can't
believe too forcibly at first, be-
leve as much as you can. Your
faith will grow. And as you keep
the image in your heart that
reality will begin to take place in
your life. Jesus said, According
to your faith. so be it unto YOU.

to assure them fair and equal

LETTERS TO
THE EDITOR.

l.. c. Bates, Editor

806 w. 9th ST.
Little Rock, Ark.
Dear Sir:
Commendable Improvement has
taken place in the last decade in
the indignation of our armed
forces. Much remains to be done,
but little attention has been given
to the countervailing forces a.
gainst which the Department Of
Defense must work.
Most of our military establish
ments are in the eleven ex-Con-
federate states, where the pattern
of segregation is imposed on I'll
surrounding facilities, even when
it has been abandoned in the
camps. Thus Northern and West
ern Negroes who have not ex-
perienced segregation are subject
ed to it as a part of their COM
pulsory military service.
To rectify this deplorable situ0-
ton, Senator William LANCER, who
as Chairman of tire Senate Judi
ciary Committee in the 84th Con-
gress was responsible for institut-
ing the subcommittee on Con-
stitutional Rights, has introduced
a bill which if enaoted would

According to an old legend a
certain Greek city lay under the
heel of a cruel king. But the old
men of the city kept up the
hopes of the people by telling
them the story of the face of a
man that was cut out in the rock
mountain that looked down on
the city. Some day conqueror
will rise up among our people.
He will look like the man in the
mountain. He will deliver us.
A little boy believed this
story. Each night he would pray
to Cod to make him look like
that man in the mountain. One
day when he was a grown young
man, it came in his heart to de-
liver these people. The people
gathered to hear him speak OF
the coming liberation. While he
spoke, the old men cried out,
'Tookl He looks like the man
in the mountain" They followed
him to victory.

government officials have minimized
