AID Mohaiv Aanouneed

hair for the 1862 marketing year
have been announced by the USDA,
according to Jack L. Ruttle, live
stock and wool marketing special
list with the Cooperative Extension
Service, New Mexico State Univer-
sity.
The 1862 incentive level for
shorn wool ha S been set at 62 cents,
the same rate which has been used
since the program began in 1855.
The only change announced by the
USDA is for mohair. This rate has
been set at "a cents for 1862, an
increase of one cent over last years
73 cents level.
The wool incentive payment is
authorized by the National Wool Act
of 1884 and is designed to en-
courage greater production and
improve the quality of domestic
woods. To date, wool production in
the United States has been in
creased by over eleven per cent
since the incentive program was
begun, Ruttle added.
The present wool program was
extended this summer and will be
in effect until Marc h 81, 1866.
Funds for making incentive pay
ments to us. wool producers are
derived from duries collected on
imports of wool, both raw and man
ufactured that enter the United
States.

The underlying causes of auto
mobile accidents are extremely
complex and frequently the result
of variety of ia actors operating
together, few of which are easily
isolate and controlled for pur-
poses of investigation. Most cities
towns and communities are awak-
ening to the h allenge of traffic
safety. Notable improvements are
being made in uto m 20 bile S and
highways, warning signs, traffic
laws and programs of driver ed
ucation.
The most significant single
factor, however, remains the dri-
YER, himself. Most drivers fall in
the category between the very safe
and the veryunsafe. In other words,
most accidents are not caused by
accident repeaters, but by people
who never had an accident before.
Since this is the case, we are not
likely to really conquer the prob
lem of unsafe driving until we are
able to do something more effective
about the average driver.
What is needed is to bring the
average driver to an awareness
that driving is highly complex
task, demanding the best he has to
offer-physically, me ntally and,
above all, emotionally. 1t is the in
diVidual who drives too ia st to make
the turn, who cuts in and out of traf-
fic, who runs through stop signs, or
who goes to sleep at the wheel after
having driven eighteen hours with
out sleep on cross country vaca-
tion tour.
No one should allow the routine
familiarity of driving to blind him
to the fact that he is operating a
powerful and complex machine, ca
pable of treachery at moments's
notice: Obviously, driving while
sleepy, tired. under sedation or
drinking will compound the possi-
bility of accident. Another, lesser
known and equally dangerous tacter
is the mental attitude of the driver
he must realize that his capabilities
are equally impaired when h e
drives after having been repriman-
ded by the boss, after quarrel with
his wife, or VIII e n he is worried
about personal problems. If
person is tense or angry or if he
is self centered and Indifferent to
others or If he is using powerful
car to demonstrate how devil may
care he is or how defiant or CLAM
orous he is-then his chances, and
yours also, of becoming fatality
statistic are considerably en-
hanced. This driver has tendency

Success of the first campaign will
depend upon how well everyone
accepts his responsibility to give
this fair share.
Goal of the first Greater St.

$3,333,297. The money will provide
financing for 60 services dealing
with family problems, health, child
care, welfare, youth and recrea-
ton.
Total cost Of campaigning under
the United Fund will be less than
five cents out Of every contributed
dollar. Compare this with cam
paigning costs of independent
campaigns which sometimes took
as much as so cents of every con-
tributed dollar.
The United Fund has an open
door policy: Any organization may
join the federation providing they
meet reasonable standards Of oper-
alton and that their services are
needed in the community.
Eleven participating members in
the Greater st. Paul United Fund,
including the Community Chest

Civil Defense Lag
In Community Is
Found BV BiddIe

David Biddle president of Min
nesota Survival Shelters, S42 Upper
Midwest Building, mentioned the
fact this week that the Negroes
of the Twin Cities do not manifest
much interest in civil defense.
Few Negroes belong to the CD.
and fewer of them seem interested
in constructing nuclear shelters.
The firm owned by Biddle, a
enterprising young businessman
offers a luxurious circular, con-
crete-steeI fibre glass yard model,
complete with filters, an air pump,
an electric generator and inside
walls to match any decor. With a
tunnel from the basement this
shelter sells for about $4,000, Bid
die says his firm has shelters
priced at $500. All of Biddles firm
shelters are FFIH financed.

ZION BAPTIST

Sunday, October 8 was Youth
Day at Zion with Rev. Henry
Hardy bringing a special message
to our youth and adults as well.
Members and friends heard a dy-
manic message entitled Between
the Poles of Choice. Some thoughts
obtained from the sermon were
these: Man has an obligation to
make the right choices in life to-
ward Christ and when man stands
between the poles of choice, he
must not be afraid to step forward
for what is right. Properly con-
cerned with his commitments and
through careful selections, man can
live a successful christian life.
We are very proud of our Junior
Church and of our Junior Choir
who sang so beautifully under the
direction of Mr.. Leon Wallace. The
solos and SIS. chorus were very
good also.
We are looking forward to
greater things from our youth.
Please keep in mind the following.

PILGRIM BAPTIST


ably go down in history as one of
the most memorable since the
Organization of the church in 1868.
DR.. Massey delivered another
dynamic message to morning wor-
shippers. He chose as his subject
why All This Extravaganza.
Pilgrim welcomed the following
new members: Mrs. Carole Nc
Farland, Miss Pauline Jenkins,
Mrs. Matte Hart and Mr.. Maurice
Williamson.
Highlight of the day was the
Mortgage Burning Service at 5
pm, and the reception that fol-
lowed in Fellowship Hall. A cap
acity crowd, including the Gov
Elmer L. Andersen, heard DR..
Clifford Perron, Executive Secre-
tary, Minnesota Convention of
American Baptist Churches, de-
liver the sermon for this auspici-
GUS occasion. DR.. Perron spoke
from the subject: What Next" ?
DR.. Perron stated: I'VE have come
along way since the first christians
invested their lives in complete
service to Christ. The early christ
ians owned nothing and had no
status; yet they were able to ac-
complish an amazing thing-they
turned the world upside down by
spreading the word of God.
To-day we can become so alb
sorbed in the building and other
aspects of the church that we are
prone to forget the real purpose
of it all. The real purpose of the
church is to proclaim Jesus Christ
as Lord of all. This will always be
the mission"
DR.. Perron told the Pilgrimites
that although debt free, there
were a number of unfinished tasks
that remained unfinished. Pill
grims' first task is world evangel-
ism. It must be a witnessing COM
munity. The next task is the pro-
cIamation of Jesus as Lord of the
church. Our mission is to carry the
good news into the world-not just
among christians.
The minister concluded by chal-
longing the church: Cd To accept
the full Lordship of Jesus Christ;
once this is done there can be no
color lines. He admonished the
worshippers to do something about
segregation by going out and win
ming people of all races to Christ.
Secondly, he challenged the church
to do more, to do more in the field
of missions. Thirdly, he challenged
them to fulfill the needs of the
young people. Lastly, he challeng-
ed them to take up their crosses
and follow Christ.
Prior to the sermon, DR.. Massey
presented citations to: Gov. Elmer
L. Andersen, leader in field of hu-
man rights; Mr.. A. G. Bush, Pill
grim's largest individual donor
and Mr.. M. A. Knott, Sr, Chair
man of the Mortgage Liquidation
Drive.
Special music was provided by
all five of the church Choirs.
The service was concluded with
the mortgage burning ceremony
performed by DR.. Massey, pastor.
Immediately following the serv-
ice, the happy throng assembled
in beautifully bedecked Fellowship
Hall for a reception. A beautiful
plaque, with the names Of the life
members inscribed, was promin-
emily displayed. A delectable re-
past was served by the Deacones-
ses.
Next Sunday Laymen's Day
Service will be observed with Hon
