ROCHESTER. N. Y, June 7.
Delegates to the American
Baptist Convention have ap-
proved a resolution asserting
that every individual has a
right to run for Office but that
citizens are duty-bound to
learn how candidates stand ION
all issues of American life"
At the same time the dele
gates yesterday defeated several
amendments seeking to show
that the Catholic Church was
not in sympathy with the sep
aration of church and state
The original resolution, which
was adopted, calls Americans
to make decisions "less upon
the basis of personalities and
more upon the public state
mentS and voting records OF
the various candidates"
Traditions Upheld
The delegates then reaffirmed
the traditional Baptist position
OF religious freedom and sep
aration of church and state"
with added emphasis upon sup
port OF public school education
and a call for action against
forces that make this preser-
vation difficult" They urged
BaptiSts to resist "encroach-
ment upon tax funds for the
support of transportation for
pupils, free textbooks, salaries
Of teachers" or the purchase or
erection "of private and paro-
chial schools or other institu-
tions."
Meanwhile, today a Ne
gro was elected to a top
level post of the convention
for the first time, the Associ-
ated Press reported.

Kinney of Cleveland, named

Mrs. Mckinney is the
wife of the Rev. Wade H.
Mckinney. pastor of Antioch
Baptist Church in Cleve-
land, one of the largest Negro
churches in the country.)
A motion comm endine
ProtestantS and Other Ameri-
cans United for Separation OF
Church and State for its ef-
forts in this area was passed
But the statement pointed out
that it was not necessarily
giving a blanket Endorsement
OF all the practices and poll
cies" of the organization.
Demonstrations Endorsed
"Non-violent" student DEM
onstrations against segregation
were Endorsed by the gather
ing after a brief but heated
debate.
The closest vote of the day
came on a resolution calling
on churches mot to accept the
privileges and benefits of ex-
emption from taxation" on
church properties. 1t was de-
feated by a vote of 449 to 425.
The annual meeting of the
American Baptist Convention

ton and highway bitches are dis
charging sewage in these, either
after use of a septic tank or with
out. Needless to say, this is a most
reprehensible practice, as it can
become a public health menace, as
well as the source of a nuisance to
the senses, such as smell.
The Board of Health is therefore
requesting all residents of Rich
land County, who r indulging in
the practices mentioned above, to
consider the consequences of their
actions, and take the necessary
steps to correct these deficiencies
in their private sewage disposal.
Failure to remedy this situation,
can mean complaints to the health
department, and subsequent court
action in the event that these
nuisance charges are Substantiated
after investigation.
Your local public health sani-
tartan is a specialist in all phases
of sewage disposal and water sup
ply sanitation, and he will be only
too glad to be of assistance to you.
He is hired by the county, to pro-
tect your health. Why not call his
office in the N.Y.A. Hall, the next
time you come to town, and discuss
with him some of your problems in
this field. Your county agent can
also be of assistance to all who ask
his help.

New Navy Re-enlistment
Opportunities

Many Navy men coming up for
re-enlistment will now have four
years instead of two to re-enlist at
their former ratings. Chief Petty
Officer j. T. Flip announced that
81 per cent of ratings in both reg
ular Navy and Naval reserves have
this opportunity available.
Reason for the new procedure is
high turnover of trained men and
the fact that men who enlisted at
the beginning of World War II are
now retiring, causing shortage of
experienced men.
For men already in the service
selective training and retention
