three freedoms az Freedom from
accusing memories and guilty feel

with guilty feelings, and we Inn
pute this same attitude to others.
(2) Release from moral weak
ness. We receive strength through
this Feast Of Liberty. II you wish
to get away from weakness, just
plant your feet on higher grounds
When one lives with hate and petty
jealousy one Is living on lower
grounds, but when one refuses to
take a part in those things, one
is living on higher grounds. (S)
From the fear Of Death. Through
Jesus Christ we are released from
our own selfishness, and through
Jesus Christ we are released from
the fear Of dying.

PILGRIM BAPTIST

Pilgrimites joined with countless
worshippers throughout the land
In the observance Of World
Fellowship Sunday. DR.. Massey de-
livered a stirring message on the
subject "A Landmark Of Fellow
ship" based on the 18th and 18th
verses Of PauPs Letter to Phile-
mon. The minister gave the back
ground leading up to Paul's writ
ing the aforementioned letter.
Onesimus, runaway slave, had
become converted and was return
ing to his master Philemon, also
a christian. This letter would have
afforded Paul a unique opportuni-
ty to challenge the institution Of
slavery, why doesn't he? Probably
he failed to do so because; In
he feared that religion might be
called into repute, (2) he was
aware that Christ was coming
(3) he was not fully aware Of the
enigma Of slavery or "a he real
lied that man was never a slave
as long as he was free on the In
side.
All men are prisoners to some
thing; there is no absolute free
dom. Freedom Is a fullfillment OF
our nature. It is only realized when
one is submissive to Gods viii and
bidding. .....
DIR. Massey the worshippers that
the job Of all christians Is to open
our homes and our hearts to al
people regardless to whom they
are. For history has proved oveI
and over again that the most
deadly weapon in the hands Of the
down trodden has been the weapon
Christianity.
The minister concluded his mes,
sage with a prayer for Gods
merciful indulgence Of our weak.
nesses and a request for strength
to help US overcome.
After the sermon, the Ordinances

Council Of Clubs
Future PIuns Are
Discussed By LiFfVe

AGoMtAMueu from rage -
program: /! Improved communica-
lions with AFFILIATED club member
ship; 2. Improved public relations
with affilates, and 8. Stimulation
Of combined club activity among
affIliates.
OO1nmunIcatiOn As Key To Success
Improving communications, we
feel can be the key to success.
Cooperation cannot be expected
without the membership being wen
Informed Of what it is to cooperate
with.
We now have what we can a
Council Newsletter which Is
mailed to every member Of an af-
nHated club. Our immediate plans
are to improve this publication
and have It mailed monthly to
every member.
Speakers Bureau
TO improve our intra-cIub pub
Lie relations, we have developed
what we call a Speakers Bureau"
composed Of our most active dele
gates. Members from this group
win from time to time visit per-
sonaIly with every club In affIaa-
ton to explain phases Of our pro-
gram, and seek club suggestions.
The third Of our three-point
program, encouraging joint activ-
ity by affiliate clubs, can easily
be done after we shah have estab-
hshed good communications
This kind Of activity can be
particularly helpful to the many
small clubs desiring to sponsor
large events. It can also be helpful
IN our overall program Of building
unity, for It establishes q common
bond between clubs.
TO carry out these and other
programs Of the Council win re-
quire q larger group Of personnel
than we have had to work with In
the past Each club has two otfIc-
ial delegates. This theoretically
would provide a work force Of 90
members Yet it Is considered a
well attended meeting If Is clubs
are represented. This condition has
resulted in the same faithful few
being overworked with committee
work. And even more seriously, 1t
results in our decisions not being
representative Of our true MEM
bership. So, we shall certainly
have to make the gaining Of fun
active participation from affiliated
clubs a starting point for our pro-
gram"
Speaking Of long-range hopes
and plans Of the Twin City Coun-
Gil, Little stated that he felt the
potential was unlimited, and men,
toned such things as voter educa-
ton, community betterment pro-
jects and even the possibility Of
economic improvement projects
that could lie ahead for a strong
clOSely-knitted Council Of Clubs
organization.
March To Mutual Gains
He concluded with this state
ment: I'VE, as a people, are by
custom joiners. Some people find
1t hard to believe that there are
46 independent clubs in our COM
munity. The Council Of Clubs ulti-
mate aim must be not to destroy
or infringe upon the many club
groups; but instead to set the
cadence by which they can all
march in step for mutual gains"
It might appear to some that
the Council Of Clubs president is
somewhat Of a dreamer to visual
ize this type Of total community
unity through club solidarity, of
which he speaks 80 strongly. But
having observed the operation Of
this group for the past few weeks,
noting the determination and con-
fidence with which they tackle
their present problems, and plan
ahead for others, we would be the
last to say ut can't be done"

OTTAWA.-The bubble Of trade
with Cuba is collapsing, and the
Canadian government seems some
what hung over as it contemplates
the damage that its enthusiasm
for sales to Premier Castro has
done to Canada's image in the
United States.
The illusion that Canada could
take over a large part of the en-
bargoed $400 million a year Amer
lean trade with Cuba lasted about
four weeks. 1t reached a peak
when a Cuban trade mission
headed by Castro's economic min
lister, Regime Boti. came to Canada
with promises that Cuba would
spend $50 million in cash in Can
ada in 1861.
With the prospect of this stable
blood TRANSMISSION for the slack Ca
madam economy. Trade Minister
George Hees exulted that the Gu
bans were wonderful customers"
and that you can't do business
with better businessmen any
where" And the government as q
whole became more convinced
than ever that its policy Of NOR
mali trade relations with Cuba.
regardless Of the United States
embargo, was brilliant.
Several things contributed to

States and 90 in some States a
smaller ratio of children go to
school.
The task force recommended
two proposals that Kennedy con-
gressional leaders in education ex-
pect to put forward. One. costing
$140 million annually, would give
States an extra $40 per pupil
where personal income per stu
dent in public schools is below
10 per cent of the national aver
age" The other, benefitting
million children and costing $l20
million a year. would grant $40
per pupil to cities with more than
100000 population which are fac
ing unique and grave educational
problems"
Naturally the administration
proposals will be influenced by
the views of Secretary Ribicoff.
who, though new to the Federal
aid to education issue. has pri-
vately expressed himself force
fully on the need to make the
teaching profession more attrac-
tive. But. Of greater impact. will
be President Kennedy's decision
on the amount of money to be
spent. He has already indicated
that the size of the program will
be influenced primarily by con-
Germ for the budget because he
discovered during the campaign
that most voters are very tax
conscious.
At a later stage the admins
tration will recommend an extern
SIGN with changes in the National
Defense Education Act and a con-
tinuance of the Federal impacted
areas program:
AS has been true for over a
decade, the major battle over the
controversial aspects will occur
in the House. 1t seems clear now
that the Senate can and will APP
prove in substance the admins
tration's freedom of choice school
bill.

The Kennedy Administration.
in line with the Presidents cam
paign commitments. will propose
at the school level a freedom of
choice bill to enable the States
to spend Federal dollars either
for school construction or teach
ers' salaries. as they see fit. I'm
til the Administration bill is in
troduced. probably next month.
it will not be known how large
an expenditure will be requested
or for how many years. Last year
the Senate passed a bill author
izing $917 million dollars a year
for two years on the freedom of
choice principle. But the House.
passed a four-year bill for school
construction only at the rate of
1925 million per year.

of the Iron Curtain. This refresh
ing notion was offered in lieu of
the earlier suggestion that sover-
eign Canada would trade where
she wished.
Mr.. Diefenbaker also instructed
Mr.. Hees to contain his embar-
RAISING enthusiasm for Cuban
business men. Now Mr.. Hees pro-
claims he has no liking or adj
miration for the Castro regime,
and that the only thing he ad-
mired about Cuban trade mission
was its promise to pay cash.
With the Cuban trade proving
a mirage, and with Canadian
business men rapidly losing inter-
est, Mr.. Diefenbaker admitted
perhaps with some relief-that
There Is no evidence at the pres,
ent time that there is likely to be
any dramatic or sustained increase
in the volume of such trade, even
in the peaceful items Of Canadian
origin in which trade with Cuba
is permissible"
So much for this particular
pricked bubble. But the damage
has been done in terms of Ameri-
cans respect for Canada, and
Canadians respect for their gov
eminent. In this ephemeral
trade. only the Kremlin made a
profit.

NEW YORK.-New Workers see
the name Kennedy" in headlines
just about twice as often as other
people.
Their embattled police commits
sioner. Stephen P. Kennedy, has
been hitting the front pages just
about as often as President-elect
John F. Kennedy. Although The
presidential Kennedy has no
shortage Of relatives, these two
are not related.
Most recently Commissioner
Kennedy was held in contempt OF
court and threatened with jail
for not needing q court ban
against assigning police to higher
ranking duties without providing
higher titles and pay. He denies
failure to comply.
The commissioner has been en-
gagged for months in o row with
some members Of his own force
who are actively campaigning to
have him removed because of his
stern disciplinary and other
measures.
Only recently, he was embroiled
with big names In show business
by demanding enforcement Of
city law requiring that laightclub
performers and employees be fin
gerprinted.
Series Of Controversies
These are Just the latest IN q
series Of controversies that have
marked his career since Mayor
Robert F. Wagner appointed him
to the $25 .000-a-year commits
sionership almost five years ago.
Mr.. Kennedy said at the time
he was taking the job with no
thought of winning "a popularity
contest"
Newspapers and civic organ
izations have called him the best
police commissioner New York
ever had. But his rock-ribbed
stands have aroused the ire Of
the Mayor, the city council, other
politicians. motorists, pedestrians
and the 24,000-man police de-
partment.

sociates believe his eventual goal
is to succeed ]. Edgar Hoover as
FBI director.
Mr.. Kennedy scarcely had been
appointed when Mayor Wagner
issued a directive to city depart
ment heads and commissioners
to make files available for a
television series. No, said Mr..
Kennedy. Using police depart
ment files would hamper opera
tons of his department. They
were kept secret.
The city council proposed that

self would apologize within "a

said he had had no intention of
insulting the Jewish community
and that to apologize would be
tantamount to conceding he had
been anti-Semitic.

greatest sins of mankind" said
the Irish-descended Kennedy who
had married a Jewish girl.
