FRIENDSHIP MISSIONARY
BAPTIST

In spite of the Indictment weather
we had a wonderful time at Friend
ship Church last Sunday. Pastor
L. C. Harris, spoke from the text,
Genesis, 21-10, II verses.
His subject was, "a Woman Put
Out, Got Lost, But Was Found
BY God"
Wherefore she said unto Abra-
ham," A Cast out this bondwoman
and her son: for the son of this
bondwoman shall not be heir with
my son, even with Isaac. And God
said unto Abraham, Let it not be
grievous in thy sight because of
the lad, and because of the bond
woman; in all that Sarah hath
said unto thee, harken to her
voice; for in Isaac shall thy seed
be called.
Our minister brought out that
Hagar was put out at Gods re-
quest according to the 18th verse
of the Scriptures. She had sinned
but more, sinned against. Our Min
lister brought out things that seem
terrible in our eyesight is pleasing
in Gods, for He sometimes brings
us low that He might find us and
lift us up. The message was en-
ioyed by the congregation.
Charles Cockrell, conducted the
devotional, with scripture reading,
song and prayer, which was very
inspiring.
A few were absent because of
the weather. Mrs. Virginia Cock
rell, was home because of illness.
Let us all pray for the sick and
for their recovery.
Prayer meeting will be in the
home of Mrs. Fannie Suddeth, $40
Morgan Av. NJ, Wednesday, 8 pm.
All visitors are welcome to wor-
ship with Friendship. Where we
are striving to please God.
Our Pastors subject for next
Sunday, Gods Great Promise"

Each of us can be the architect
of our lives with God" said Rev.
Lowell Johnson, last Sunday at the
10:45 worship service as he de-
livered his sermon entitled DE
vine Architects"
Rev. Johnson illustrated his
point that God must be counted in
any building venture by sighting
two examples from the Bible. In
the first example Rev. Johnson
said when the defendants Of Noah
attempted to build a tower to God
they could only get so high when
suddenly everyone began speaking
in a different tongue.
In the second example, the pas
tor said, when Solomon was build
ing the temple, he became too en-
crossed in the material things go
ing into the building. In both in
stances, Rev. Johnson pointed out,
the most important thing was for
gotten - the spirit of God. There
fore both projects failed. AS God
told Solomon, commented Rev
Johnson, II live in the hearts of
men not in buildings made by
hands"
BY being in the hearts Of men
said Rev. Johnson, is the way Gods
work gets done. If God is to get
anywhere, he went on, men must
take him there.
Rev. Johnson likened buildings
to governments, organizations
church life and individuals. He said
unless God is allowed to do the
building, each is doomed to failure
before they are started.
The Cantinos furnished the mu-
sic with, II Thank You Jesus,
"Over My Head" and "Only A
Look" Donald Johnson sang the
solo for the latter.
The service was interrupted
briefly when it was announced that
Mrs. Dorothy Sims, the organist,
had suddenly taken i'll and was
being attended to by DR.. Edward
Posey in church's undercroft.
Neatly dressed in the uniforms
of dark skirts and white blouses,
the Youth Ushers performed their
duties exceptionally well.
A reminder: During Lent the
church doors will be open every
Thursday, am. to $3.50 pm, for
Meditation and communing with
God" Rev. johnson invites every
one to avail themselves this OPP
portunity to gain a deeper spiritual
meaning to their life during Lent.
The retired Senior Citizens will be
in charge of this project.

who is teaching political SCI
ence and contributing many

exclaimed, What a blessed

After all his bitter criti-

he answered, Il, like many

Executing the Laws of Congress

nounced he would disregard
the wishes Of Congress, the
following paragraphs ap-
peared in these dispatches
on october 81, l949:
"A precedent Of far-reach-
ing Importance is involved in
Mr.. Humans announcement
that, although he signed the
military appropriation bill
which provides funds for a
5S-group Air Force, he will
not spend the extra $648 mil
lion and will allow only a
48-group Air Force.
THE Congress made q mis-
take in voting for a So in
stead Of a 48-group Air Force,
but the law is on the stat
ute books and If the Presi-
dent didn't like it he should
have made clear that he would
veto the bill and Congress
would have had the choice
Of overriding the veto or
amending the bill to meet the
Presidents wishes.
Rightly or wrongly, Con-
gress wants a 58-group Air
Force, and 1t is the duty Of
the President to give Con-
greSS what 1t voted"
The basic issue remains the
same today. Can a President of
the United States arbitrarily
decide for himself which laws
passed by Congress he will
enforce and which ones he
will disregard? If so, what
becomes of the presidential
oath, spelled out in the Con-
stitution itself: Il do solemly
swear Cor affirm that I will
faithfully execute the office
Of President of the United
States.
The Constitution also spe-
officially declares, as one Of
the duties of a President, that
"he shall take care that the
laws be faithfully executed"
But supposing a President
deliberately ignores the
wishes or directions Of Con-
gress, what can be done about
it? There is only one course
open, namely, Impeachment
for "misdemeanors." Would
a refusal ito faithfully ex-
ecute" a law passed by Con-
gress be a "misdemeanor"?
One definition Of "misde-
meanor" is misconduct"
Certainly refusal by a PreSi-
dent to execute" q law would
be a breach of faith with the
Congress.

know what am talking
about. The three years OF
brutal war and devastation
left its mark in the minds
of most Spanish people who
do not want a repeat per-
Torrance. We Just can't af-
ford it"
I found it interesting that
while American counterpartS
of my egg-head friend are
still eXerting themselves to
bring about the overthrow
OF Franco, the Spanish in
tellectuals are scared of what
might happen if he relin-
pushed his hold.
This conversation led me
to ask FL Caudillo the $64
question when he received me
a couple of days later. In
the past 1t was not supposed
to be tactful to ask whether
he was making any prepara-
ton for the time when his
hand could no longer hold
the reins Of government. But
I decided to be tactless since
I had found an increasing
concern over what after
Franco?" in both France and
Germany. This is because in
the foreSeeable future Spain
will enter the Common Mar
ket as well as the political
confederation which is now
being so assiduouSly prepared
by the Bonn and Paris gov
ernments.
The German and French
leaders realize the impor-
lance of the Iberian PENN
sula to the European Con-
federation. I have heard
many leading statesmen say
that had Franco not been
victorious in the civil war
the whole Iberian Peninsula
would have become a Com
munist stronghold with in
calculable consequences for
the rest Of Europe.
I explained to Ell Caudillo
these considerations as we'll
as the interest in the United
States about the question of
succession and asked If he
has taken any steps about
what or who would follow
him. He replied, smilingly,
"Of course I have. There is
a regency which will take
over"
1t was, as far as my ques-
ton was concerned, a highly
unsatisfactory answer. But
that was all I could get from
him.
I had the feeling that
while the head of state might
have some more precise
ideas, he was not ready to
make them public, or for

is being done all over this
broad and beautiful land.
Nobody disputes this among
working politicians. Up to
now, efforts to do something
about it have been sporadic
and only very mildly success
full.
Each party has found a
scapegoat for the often I'M
fortunate results that follow.
Democrats view with alarm
the long lists of the very rich
men and women who have
never been able to perceive
a Democrat fit to be PreSi-
dent. Republicans moan and
groan over the money and
manpower the labor move
ment devotes to Democrats.
They might have gone on
indefinitely with this solution
had not the scientists and
the population explosion
caught up with them. Every
year there are lots more vot-
ers to be persuaded, and ev-
cry year television is more
necessary and more expen-
sive.
This is a factor in the
emergence of political dynas-
ties. Even one well-heeled
candidate is hardly enough
these days; it helps to be
able to share the burden

Fighting Kentuckion Named Clay

mittee of 60 removed his
equipment to Cincinnati. He
published from there for a
while, but later moved his
paper to Louisville.
When the Republican Party
was formed he embraced it's
principles. So eloquent and
admired was he that in 1860
he narrowly missed being
chosen as Lincoln's running
mate. President Lincoln made
him ambassador to Russia. He
returned in 1851 to do a little
fighting in the war; but went
back to st. Petersburg where
he remained until 1869. He
brought home with him a
Russian boy. The lad was
named Launey Clay, but Cas-
Sius would not discuss his
pafentage.
He spent his last years in
violent controversy, some of it
physical. No good biography
exists Of this able, violent
man. He was a major mover
and a shaker, and we are
indebted to the young fighter,
Cassius Marcellus Clay, for
reminding us of his name
sake. No man seeking fame
with his fists could be better
named.
