Quoted in a lawful and orderly
manner. Our problem is, also,
whether any man other than Rev.
erend Jackson can be President of
the Convention. This is basic
Baptist tenet, and I cannot sur
render this principle. Into this
principle of free choice and the
right to vote I was born as a Bap-
fist. By this principle I have lived
these years. I will not, I cannot
sacrifice this principle on the altar
of expediency. believe millions
join me in this determination. We
will stand on this principle. We
will not be wooed by flattery nor
dazzled by eloquence. We are free
Baptists and in defense Of that
freedom and within the framework
of the National Baptist Conven-
ton we are ready for whatever
comes. If we must suffer con-
tempt, then in Christ's Name we
will wear that contempt as King
ly Crown. If we must suffer
SANDER and false witness, then we
will wear that SANDER and false
witness as the "marks of the Lord
Jesus in our flesh" If we must
suffer Imprisonment, then we will
make prison cells our shrines to
Baptist liberty. If death is our lot
in defense of this principle, then
our flowing blood will seal the
covenant of our Baptist freedom,
and our corpses will be the barri-
cades to halt the invasion of our
sacred right of freedom and our
holy prerogative of voting. sa-
lutte you in this spirit as President
of the National Baptist Conven-
ton.
One thing / know is that no man
can long force himself on Baptists
when they reject his leadership.
AS duly elected President of the
Convention, and in the absence OF
agreement to my proposal for dis
cussion, I am thoroughly willing to
submit my principles and my pres
idency to another vote at the 1861

Meanwhile, The Board of Direct
ors of the National Baptist Con-
vention, USA., Inc, in a meeting
in Hot Springs, Ark, January IT.
10 unanimously voted that the $50
called Taylor Team" is an indie
pendent organization. Rev. Jack
son and his followers ruled that
the election of Rev. Taylor at the
Philadelphia Session was illegal,
declaring the session was officially
adjourned when the dissenters
pushed through the claimed cleo
ton of Rev. Taylor as President
Of the Convention.
The verdict which meant the
custer of the Taylor group, and ex-
posed a serious split in the con-
vention was cheered by the more
than 1900 delegates attending the
Boards annual mid-winter meet
ing.
At the conclusion of the Atlanta
meeting, Rev. Taylor issued the fol-
lowing statement:

meet somewhere and try to solve
the present problem of two de-
termined groups in the Conven-
ton, one claiming that I am the
President and the other claiming
that Reverend Jackson is Presi-
dent. Though Reverend Jackson's
secretary acknowledged the letter
and said she would bring it to her
employers attention, no answer
has come from Reverend Jackson.
The Pennsylvania Supre e
Court has indicated that it does
not have jurisdiction to hear the
case of the National Baptist Con-
vention, which began as court
case when injunctions signed by
Reverend j. H. Jackson and other
ex-officials of the Convention were
served during the Philadelphia ses-
sion on the Reverend c. V. john
son, President of the Illinois Bap-
fist State Convention, he Reverend

erend Thomas Kilgore, Pastor of
New York's Friendship Baptist
Church and National Coordination
of the 1856 Prayer Pilgrimage and
myself.
The Pennsylvania Courts have
suggested that the case ought to
be tried in the District of Colun1-
bia courts since the Convention is
Incorporated in the District of Co.
lumbia. l believe that any court
hearing the testimony which in
cluded tape recordings of the ses-
sion would have to decide that l
was elected in the only election
held. However, I am not willing
to involve the denomination in long
and costly litigation at time when
we are doing so pitiably little for

the spirit of Jesus Christ and in
obedience of the Holy Spirit, / re-
move from the Civil Courts any

my case in the hands Of the people

and will continue as President &C.
cording to their expressed will at
Philadelphia. I do not know wheth-
er the injunctions which was served
on me at Philadelphia and which
first carried me tothe Courts will
be revived against me or not, but
take my stand in the confidence
that the Convention is competent
to settle it's own matters and will
not again tolerate any attempt to
evade an honest, fair and open
election by anyone.
I am the President Of the Ma

Ball Carries the Fight to Nixon

Taking direct issue with
the Nixon charges. Ball pro-
nounced Prime Minister
Cyrille Adoula of the central
government to be moderate,
firmly non-Communist and
committed to genuine inde-
pendence and progress for
the Congo" He pointed out
that TShombe's secession de-
pends upon Katanga'S dis
proportionate share of the
regions min eral wealth,
which has caused outside in
terests to encourage him.
1t was. in short, an admin
stration text of which more
will be heard. What politi-
clans are asking is why Nixon
decided to plunge in so deeply
on the side of the Right
wingerS.
California observers believe
he has been moved to do so
by the increasing Right-wing
strength in the State he
hopes to govern. They point
ed to dispatches saying that
"ultra-conservative juices"
coursed strongly during a
meeting last week Of 300 in
fluential party leaders.
The same stories said
Nixon made obeisance to the
Right-wingers by extempo-
rizing in his prepared speech
for the meeting that There

pie who differ"

The foregoing g remarks
point up the weakness that
has been revealed time and
again in the U. N.-that ma
tions do their voting on the
basis of political self-interest
rather than from the view
point of international JUS
tice.
What are the tragic conse-
quences already? Indonesia
is preparing militarily to
move against Dutch-held
West New Guinea, which is
located on an island hun
dreds Of miles away from the
Indonesian seat of govern
ment. The sole claim of In
donesia is that it has a
right to whatever the Meth
erlands owns in the archipe-
lago. Will the u. N. step in
to avoid the use Of force?
Will it help the people Of
New Guinea to exercise their
right of self-determination?
And suppose the Peiping
government decides to go
back a few centuries to the
days when Genghis Khan
claimed all Of Asia, including
India, and asserts now that
Red China has inherited all
the land once claimed by
preceding regimes?
There are many places in
the world where bloodShed
could ensue if the doctrine
that might makes right is to
be employed to justify seizing
areas now held by other
governments, whether as
colonies or as integral parts
of the sovereign territory of
the nation attacked.
Throughout Africa the
torches of more war have
been lighted. A West African
newspaper says: The amaz-
ing thing was that Nehru
was so patient. When indie

are strong enough to give the
command to pack up and go,
Angola. Mozambique and
Portuguese Guinea will suffer
the same fate as Goa"
Nuclear war may perhaps
be averted, but little wars
that can grow into big wars
seem destined to plague the
world. Sooner or later the
United Nations must be re-
organized to include truly
free nations which are willing
to make sacrifices to estab-
liSh a rule of law for the

India has turned the clock
back several centuries to
espouse the doctrine that

nearby territory and arguing
that it is merely following

territory of Hong Kong from

any moment these can be

the 1930s?
Plainly the quest for peace
by the processes Of reason
has suffered a setback. It is
all the more distressing be-
cause the new violator of
human rights-Prime Minis
ter Nehru-has hitherto been
their staunchest defender. He
has been the worlds chief
exponent of non-violence and
OF the pacific settlement of
disputes.
Worst of all is the hypocrit-

spect for that organization
be maintained when it toler-
ates acts that tear to shreds
the solemn obligations of its
Charter?
The Security Council was
.estopped by the Soviet veto
from dealing with India's
action, but the General As
sembly can still function and
express itself. It now is said
this would be futile because
the Afro-Asian bloc would
vote down any resolution
condemning India's aggres-
sion. Nevertheless, a record
vote would go a long way

with every point Nixon raised
in a long, tightly organized
history of the Congo problem.
This, of course, took him
back to II months ago, when
the Congo was declared SOW
ereign and independent. Ball
roundly declared that the
Eisenhower administration
was right in joining other
governments in sponsoring
U. N. action to keep the peace
there; he said it had kept
Communist power out of the

The former Vice President

Even before those remarks

Mans last hope for some

to death before that worlds
eye.
1t is a victim Of the re-
peated stabbing blows of a
coalition Of assailants which
has these characteristics: An
open brutality mixed with a
preaching hypocrisy so nasty
as to have little example in
human history.
Leading the assault pack
is a force as cold as evi! ice,

pack is a force made sweat
lily ugly by the very heat CT
the elf-righteousness Of it's
members. These are the

After years of "neutralist"
screaming at the sins of the
West, they have at last open

A rereading of the United
Nations Charter adopted in
1945 at San Francisco is per-
tinent today. Here are some
extracts that place aggres-
sion outside the pale of civ
ilized conduct:
Purposes and principles

tive measures for the pre-
vention and removal of
threats to the peace. and for
the suppression of acts of

"All members, in order to

fill in good faith the obliga-
tions assumed by them in ac-
cordance with the present
Charter"
Adlai Stevenson. the United
States Ambassador to the
U. NJ, acting upon instruc-
tions from Washington made
some pointed comments dur
ing the debate at the Security
Council meeting at which the
Soviet veto was registered
against any action by the
Council denouncing India's
course. He said:
Can anyone believe that
huge India is acting in self
defense against this little
territory? The League of
Nations died, I remind you,
when its members no longer
resisted the use of agrees
Sive force.
THE failure of the Secu-
rity Council to call for a
cease fire in these simple
circumstances is a failure of
the United Nations. The veto
of the Soviet Union is con-
sistent with its long role of
obstruction. But I find the
attitude of some other mem
bers of the Council pro-
foundly disturbing and omi-
nous because we have wit
messed an effort to rewrite
the Charter, to sanction the
use OF force in international
relations when 1t suits ones
own purposes. This approach
