Victims OF Violence
Two months ago the police made
a raid on a small house in Kings
ton which was we'll known as q
Rastafarian chapel. Finding q
cache Of small arms on the prem
Uses, together with other evidence
of an discriminating nature, Claud-
us Henry, so-called "Repairer of
the Breach" was arrested with
several of his associates and
charged with treason-felony.
A few weeks after this arrest
police and detachments of the
army here made an extensive raid
on a district known as Sligoville.
In the early part of the maneuver
two young English soldiers were
shot and killed by escaping des-
peradoes. During the week-long
man hunt which followed, a shall
low grave was discovered which
contained the corpses Of three
members of the Rastafari group
who apparently were victims Of
violence. Eventually in a series
of dramatic episodes ali the wanted
men were captured by the police
and now face trial on charges in
GLIDING murder.
Some of the men on trial are
American citizens. A recent de-
velopment in which a New York
patrolman has been arrested and
charged further seems to estab-
lish ling between United States
citizens and the events in ia

During his South African tour
earlier this year, British Prime
Minister Harold Macmillan, whose
country heads the list of exporters
to South Africa as well as buying
more South African goods than
any other country, voiced his oppo-
sition to boycott moves.
However, as the London Daily
Telegraph editorialized Aug. /, in
the boycott against South Africa
we "see the repercussions far out
side Africa Of racial policy. These
are emotional facts of life not
cancelled by deploring them. Racial
discrimination has become a polit-
ical issue, even in countries which
have no such problem of their
own. South Africa must recognize
that her problem has become in
ternationalized."

Plot Reported

It has been stated that . group
known as the First Africa Corps
exists in New York City and that
in conjunction with members of
the Rasrafari movement here this
unit was engaged in drilling and
arming revolutionaries with the
intent Of overthrowing the Jamac-
ian Government and Selling this
country.

lice uncovered a Good Friday

have been made to assassinate
ministers of government and to
blow up the House of Representa-
tives where the Jamaican Par

Since the recent troubles began.
the homes of some of the ministers
of government have been under po-
lice guard, particularly the resi-
dence of Jamaica's Premier Nor
man Manley who, it is said, is a
specific target for the would-be
revolutionaries as they feel that
his government promised to ship
those who wanted to go "back"
to Africa and that the alleged
promise has not been kept. AS a
result of the belief in such a prom
Use, and stirred by zealots, several
hundred simple folk sold all their

AntisubversiOn Stiffened
1t seems that the Rastafarian
movement is much larger than
had been imagined hitherto. Ad-
herents number close to 10000
with a fringe of sympathizers
which may add up to another
$4,000. Although these are main.
ly among the unemployed and mall
adjusted in the West End of Kings

areas, largely among those who
in other societies have been de-

can society. Attempts to show
links between the Rastafarians and
the Communists and with the Cas-
tro government in Cuba have been
inconclusive so far.
The Government of Jamaica has
made it very cellar that it intends
to stamp out any subversive influ-
ences in the country.
The most hopeful sign is the de-
sire of the Rastafarians to have
their problems investigated by a

| hope you will give these sugges-
tions try, adapting them to your own
family, your own physical environ

est interests.
Wherever the idea works, it will
give someone a lifetime of great per-
sonal Joy. 1t will pull whole family
together.
1t will provide pleasure of the kind
that builds lifelong memories.
The first step is to forget all the self
conscious ideas you've ever had about
what culture is or is not. The second
step is to stimulate this personal and
family culture to new growth by the
simple means of displaying it. The
project of display will encourage the
individual; the joint display will en-
tighten each member of the family
about the other. And the total effect
will be to prompt an Old-fashiOned,
newly needed pride in the home.
The third step is not step but a
leap, from house that is only place
to live to the creative force that is
entitled to the word ''home" Let your
self go with the kind of culture | have

will hear your house saying, in pas

had come earlier, but now he
has the benefit of the opinion
of the rest of them who have
heard Paul testify for himself,
and had deliberated among
themselves and exchanged
ideas.
Then said Agrippa unto
Festus, This man might have
been set at liberty, if he had
not appealed unto Caesar !.
One might add also that the
man might have been murder
ed by the Jews in ambush had
he not appealed unto Caesar
for it was this appeal that pre-
vented Festus from taking him
back to Jerusalem for retrial
and in peril of his being killed
by the Jews. Paul might have
been freed had not Festus
been so willing to please the
Jews for political reasons.
PRACTICAL POINTS ON
THE LESSON:
Salvation should make us
strong, not weak; courageous,
not fearful; heroic, not soft;
joyful, not sad. Witnessing
for Christ requires courage
and for this very reason the
Holy Spirit is given to us. Paul
experienced a great CONVEX.
sion, obtained a great call, dis
covered doors of great oppor.
tunities, exercised a great min
lstry, encountered great oppo-
sition, won great victories for
the Lord. Before Paul's con.
version he was a great enemy
OF the church, wrought great
havoc among the believers and
occasioned great fear among
the Christians. Being obedi.
ent to the heavenly vision,
which came from heaven,
and enabled him to lead a host
into heaven.
