Bishop Jordan Speaks At J.S.C.

Bishop Frederick D. Jordan,
Presiding Bishop of the Eighth
Episcopal District of the AME
Church, was the Summer Con-
vocation speaker at Jackson
State College recently. The
outstanding religious leader
used as basis for his talk the
founding of the AME Church
by Richard Allen, a former
slave. In his quiet but dyna-
mic way, he told his listeners
that 1.-The necessary ingredi-
ents for human progress are
always present, but that the
difference lies in the way men
face their problems. He list
ed three requirements for
progress and successful living
as % self-help, (2) self-deter-
mination, and 90 self-sacrifice.
People must have an under
standing of their problems and
the determination and willing
ness to work them out" AL
len, the great Methodist lead
er, was cited as a good exam
pie of what one can do if he
follows these three guideposts.
He refused help of phjlan-
thropists to build a new church

GirI-friend Turns
In Rape Suspect

MACON, Ga. - Tommy P.
Daniels, arrested here last
week and charged with the
rape of a 15-year-old baby sit
ter has been locked up in Bib
County Jail to await a grand
jury hearing.
The 26-year-old white man,
described as a "drifter," was
turned-in by his girl friend
after he repeatedly Dragged a.
bout raping the young colored
girl.
Daniels is accused of rap
ing the child at his girl-friend's
home where she was working
as baby sitter. He is said
to have gone to his girl
friends house, and on learning
that she was not home, raped
the girl.
The victim, who said that
she was raped after Daniels
threatened to kill her if she
resisted, later identified the
accused as the man who mo-
Tested her.
Conviction of rape in the
State of Georgia carries the
death penalty. No white man
has died for criminal attack on
a colored woman in the Peach
State, although large number
of colored men have paid the
supreme penalty for rape of
white women.
Presently four whites are
serving life terms in Florida
for the rape of a pretty Flor
ida coed. A Georgia Marine
recently was sentenced to die
in South CAROLINA for raping
a colored woman and a white
ex-convict was given life for
raping an 11-year-old colored
girl in North Carolina two
weeks ago.
The white Marine convicted
in South Carolina, was SEIZED
uled to die in August. His SEN
tence, however, has been set
aside pending an appeal of the
case.
