middle on any issue like this
This would have kept US fighting
among ourselves and we never
would have received any benefit
from the Supreme Court ruling
This has not been true on school
desegregation Here and there we
have had an Uncle Tom, but they
have been few and far between
We have been united believe
this has been due in no small
measure 10 the leadership which
our churches. their pastors and
their members have gwen"
In his address 10 the Baptist
gathering on June "a, the NAA-
CP leader said that under segroga-
ton white people aget the best,
Negroes get only what Is left over
If anything How can Negro
parents be happy for example,
when their children under the lie
gal segregated school system, Of
ten must use torn secondhand,
outdated textbooks after the white
children have finished with them ?"
III I know anything about my
own people" Mr. wilkins contin-
ued. 1T Is that they are mighty
tired OF the same old shabby deal"
Turning 10 the role Of the church
in the struggle for civil rights.
Mr. wilkins said, "our work and
the work OF the church have the
common objective Of creating
better and more Just world
The establishment OF the king
dom of God on earth means the
establishment OF society IN
which all the children OF God shall
have equality Of opportunity. In
which there shall be no difference
In treatment because OF nationall-
W. OF htikuAkfE VI ANiHA " wv

Speaking Of the unity within the
Negro community. Mr. wilkins
said. that against this, "our OPP
ponents have made much noise, but
not much progress. In the battle
for public opinion they ars losing
Their cause Is not just
They are trying to turn back
the clock. 10 revive conditions a.
they were 80 years ago They may
delay the progress. but they win
never succeed, Mr. wilkins said
Gov Faubus made the mistake
OF the century by calling out the
state troops 10 bar nine Negro
youngsters from going 10 school
When the history Of the segreEa-
ton struggle Is finally written. I
suspect that the Faubus error Will
mark the turning point in favor
OF the new order
Mr. wilkins stated that decent
white people outnumber the other
kind in the South Together with
Negro citizens. they form a vas,
majority God win not permit
such a combination to be defeated
by the forces Of bigotry and strife
