The 1862 roster of Johnny Baker
Post lists the same Enroll M. Fas-

years he has been the post COM
mander three times, and just about
every other office the post has.
A retired mail carrier and vet
eran of World War I, Fassett is
an inspiration to the younger ac-
tive post members. He is quick to
accord the legion and other vet
GRAMS organizations credit for the
preferred treatment that veterans
enjoy.
After World War I, we were
quickly forgotten and suffered
many inequities because we didn't
have the kind of organized strength
to go to bat for u.s." he stated.
Being active for the past 81
years with the American Legion,
has not only been a pleasure from
the standpoint of fellowship; but
it has given me a sense of achieve
ment, seeing the many new laws

asked that the Board of Public

the question of expansion of the

that Minneapolis could adopt the

could expand the present work re-

not use the services of a respon-

nau 1alled TO recognize the growing
significance that nationalism had
for increasing numbers of Africans.
The challenge of nationalism would
not be evaded by churchmen ham
kering after some form of neo-
colonialism.
I'm the coming years the Church
in Africa will have to recognize
African nationalism for the power
full, revolutionary moral force that
it is, with its double emphasis on
liberation and on human dignity.
Let us make no mistake, national
ism has come to stay in Africa
The clock cannot be put back Z.
Radical RethinIxing"
1T is imperative and urgent that
the Church now realizes that the
colonial era is ending in Africa. The
missionary policy and strategy
which was effective in colonial days
is rapidly becoming outmoded.
Unless the Church missionary
societies and missionaries recognize
this they will all become increas-
ingly paralyzed and confused in
the new Africa" It was ridiculous
to attempt to continue relation
ships between the Church in Brit
ain and the Church in Africa as if
vast African territories were still
being administered from London,
Paris, and Brussels.
The times called for a radical
rethinking of missionary strategy.
But there was still an urgent need
of men and women in almost every
walk of life who would be prepared
to give a limited period of five
years to Africa.
mot Impressed"
1T is no longer sufficient for
men and women from overseas to
be willing to work for Africans.
They must be prepared to work
with them and, if necessary, under
them E.
white church people everywhere
need to learn that the peoples of
Africa are no longer greatly i'm
pressed by words, even Christian
words. Now they watch the auth
ors of such words closely to see if
they match their words with deeds.
1.-The unpleasant truth is that
the Church in Africa has been far
too content to reproduce the social
pattern of secular society in its
own life.
mot that the Church in Africa
is the only Church that has been
guilty of this particular betrayal
of the Gospel. The Church every
where, as much in these islands as
anywhere in the world, is contin-
ually exposed to the temptations
of conforming to the pattern of the
society in which it is SET"
