II Is well eSIdDllSIl6u ldCl
lin this neck of the woods that
a prod directed toward Lila
Thomson is biting off rather a
large hunk. In fact it is tanta-
mount to subjecting ones self
to Lila's inimitable style of pen
lashing in the popular vernac-
ular.
However, one cannot Keep
silent when a columnist, either
through ignorance or obliquity,
misrepresents the facts. l pre-
fer to believe the former is
responsible since / doubt that
Lila attended the meeting she
attacked in her column last
week. l didn't see her there
although it's possible l missed
seeing her in that assemblage
of over 400.
Misrepresentation No. 1: Lila
says County Unitarians CO.
sponsored with Unitarians from
other sections of the Metropol-
itan area" etc. Lila neglected
to mention that u organizations
co-sponsored the meeting and
unfortunately there are not 81
Unitarian churches in the area.
No. 2: In respect to integrated
housing, social justice does con-
Germ itself with individual rights
and preferences. Surely Lila is
not so naive as to believe that
present housing practices leave
room for individual rights and
preferences. Of 1 am wrong
perhaps she will be able to locate
quarters for a Negro family with
six children who must vacate
their home within two months
and who've had no success in
finding an apartment.) What of
the individuals who prefer to
raise their children in an inte-
grated neighborhood? Any per-
son who chooses to interest him.
self in Mr.. Milgrim's plan is
exercising an individual right.
No. 3: Pardon me for smiling.
/ can not help but be amused at
Lila's comments regarding the
motion picture shown by the
Unitarians. Perhaps she is sug-
costing that the Unitarians pre-
cipitated the steel strike? At
any rate, the picture had moth
ing whatever to do with a labor
management discussion. The
movie Burden of Truth" de-
picted the problems of racial
minorities with regard to job
and home seeking. Incidentally,
the movie was made more than
a year ago.
Aside-I think it is in very
bad taste to accuse his honor,
the Mayor, of being "suckered
into dear' and that an apology
should be forthcoming post
haste.
Last but not least-I am sorry
her diligent search awaited her
nothing. My diligence" con.
sisting of a 2 minute scan of
my plain old home encyclopedia
informed me that the Unitarian
movement at the outset (around
1909 supported liberal political
and social ideas.
Ready, Lila-blast off!

sorship. Therefore / doubt that
the column by Guest Columnist
Mrs. Thomson would have re.
ceived much comment if only
she had stuck with the truth.
Opinions one should be able
to express anywhere-untruths
have no place on the editorial
page of any newspaper.
1t is obvious that Mrs. Thorn
son did not see or talk to any
one who did attend the showing
of the film Burden of Truth
last March II, 1859, in the Coun-
ty Auditorium. This very SEN
sitive film deals with the sub
ject of intolerance and in no
way concerns any coming labor
management dispute.
I hope the Sentinel win cor
rect the inaccuracy in last
weeks issue re Unitarians and
steel strikes!

NOT Empty Words

Unltarians are glad to be the
topic OF honest query and happy
to say they continue to be ac-
tive today as they have been his
torically in areas of social jus
tice and humanitarian concern.
We could even thank your
guest columnist, Lila Thomson.
for calling to the attention of
your readers our part in spon-
soring public meetings on moral
issues if she had done a respon-
sible piece of reporting. If she
had taken the trouble to check
she would have noted that
twenty-eight organizations in
Guiding Catholic, Jewish, Protes-
tant, and Friends organizations
co-sponsored the meeting on
open occupancy housing.
The film sponsored by Rock
vile Unitarians last March
dealt with the moral issues of
prejudice and intolerance, issues
with which Unitarians concern
themselves as religious people.
In this we are joined by those
of all faiths who believe that
moral and ethical religious
values should be applied in the
practical business of everyday
living.
Where are we going? Unfair
ians are going in the direction
of freedom and brotherhood for
we have the positive faith that
these are more than empty
words. We invite all to join
with us regardless of race,
status, or national origin.
Robert Nj. Doss, Minister
Unitarian Church of
Rockville
Montgomery County sentinel. [volume] (Rockville, Md.) 1855-1974, 1959-11-12

How utterly delightful to see
the redoubtable Mrs. Thompson
once again charge into print
with her venom in full bloom
and her facts at halfmast! We
have missed this humorous part
of the Rockville scene-and are
grateful to the ex-editor of the
Sentinel a n ex-editor Of the
Shopper for once again enliven-
ing the air with the pooh and
bah" (Sentinel, 1854 of yester-
year.
Give us more-for even with
the half-truths and untruths, we
welcome the publicity Mrs.
Thompson gives to the fact that
Unitarians do something about
their beliefs.
CIVde ID. Hardin
Montgomery County sentinel. [volume] (Rockville, Md.) 1855-1974, 1959-11-12

is that they take their freedom
seriously and their religious
faith very seriously indeed.
They are earnestly trying to
find the truth and live by it.
Their religion is of this world
and the public who live in it,
including the Negroes. 1t is not
just coincidence that a Unfair
ian wrote the Declaration of
Independence and the Virginia
Statute of Religious Freedom.
No one can speak for all Uni.
misunderstanding their critics
because every Unitarian re-
serves to himself the right to
determine what he will believe
and live by. The Unitarian faith,
nevertheless, is a positive one
that leads to action. Fear-least
of all fear of their fellow man,
including NECROSIS foreign
to their beliefs. 1 say this only
because your columnist dwelt
long on fear: fear that the
status quo would be disturbed,
fear that "rabble-rousers"
(meaning those with whom she
disagrees) would somehow give
members of two races the op-
portunity to live in the same
housing development, a priv
ilege they do not now have. All
the speaker had advocated was
that some builder should make
provision for such freedom of
choice. He pointed out where
such a program had worked
well elsewhere.
Speaking of fears, I recall
that the same columns t
struggled hard to make Rock
vile fear the civic center. She
branded it a white elephant. The
fact is that the civic center is
about the busiest place in Rock
vile, and the envy of every
visitor to our city. Somehow her
fears just don't seem to pan out.
The Unitarian Church did
sponsor a film intended to show
how race prejudice and discrimi-
nation restrict freedom of peo-
pie to live their lives fully and
purposefully. The film had
nothing whatever to do with
labor-management relations or
the steel strike; and even if it
had, that fact would not have
prove ted Unitarians from
showing it or looking at it II
they thought they might learn
something thereby.
To answer Mrs. Thomson's
query: the Unitarians know
exactly where they are going
and why. They are searching
for truth wherever they can
find it and whenever they think
they have found a piece of 1t
they will try to put it into prac-
tice in their church, their
homes, their community and
yes even in commerce; for
who today thinks religion is to
be preached on Sunday and
ignored on Monday?
The Unitarians, like the mem
bers of many other faiths, try to
live their religion. That their
particular faith places special
emphasis on the brotherhood of
man, tolerance of the views of
others and diligence in trying
to make this a better world to
live in, is everybody's gain.

Army Volunteer
Kills Self to Keep
Out of Arkansas

MEMPHIS-An 18-year-old Ne
gro youth who volunteered for
the Army but who did not want
to go to Arkansas to take a pre-
induction physical examination
at Fort Chaffee, put a bullet
through his brain early last Sat
urday morning after police had
pleaded with him for more than
three hours To come out of his
brothers home at 2156 Griggs ave,
and surrender.
The suicide victim, who shot
himself between the eyes with a
80 cafbre pistol, was John L.
Wright, youngest brother of Rob-
ert H. Wright with whom he had
been living off and on for the
past year since returning from
Chicago.
Mr.. Wright said that he called
police after coming home just be-
fore midnight on Friday night,
when his brother threatened to
kill him if he came into the house
WOULD KILL
"As soon as I got on the porch
and started to come into the
house, he told me that If I came
In he would kill me and then
shoot HIMSELF Mr.. Wright said.
HE wanted to go into the
service, and I signed the papers
for him but he just didn't want
to go to Arkansas, though he
didn't mind going into the Army.
Mr.. Wright, who works at the
Wilson Barber shop at 2174 Chel-
sea, and attends the Booker I.
Washington Evening school said
that the victim had attended the
Hyde Park Elementary school and
some high school in Chicago be-
fore returning to Memphis about
a year ago.

Dragging
.DriUerS Cause
accidents
BY Martha Johnson
Dodge Safety Consultant

DO you have to show off the
power of your new car? Do you
have to demonstrate your skill in
making time through traffic?
The National Safety Council
warns that this kind of YOU"
causes accidents.
You may be an experienced
driver, but if you have the COM
petitive urge to pass cars even
when you're not in a hurry
then you're asking for trouble.
If you have to beat everyone
away from the light, and insist
on keeping the ether fellow in
his iaRc--you are in danger OF
becoming a traffic statistic.
The ver-confident driver
causes many accidents. He gets a
sudden feeling of power when he
takes the wheel This power
complex leads him to take
chances. And, when you take
chances, you frequently don t
win.
Try TO remember that the
other driver pays highway taxes
TOO. It's his road as much as it's
yours.
The other driver has just as
much right to the road as you
have. Don't try to compete with
-iust Ivy to live with him.
Give MIN part of your sh,.4e
lof the road. and be safe.
