History of Oklahoma
No longer ago than 1870. Ok
1ahoma then indian territory
had only 2.407 whites residents.
In 1900, Oklahoma City then
only Ii years old had a popula-
ton OF 1887. Today. its popu-
lation is well over the 325 900
mark. Tulsa. founded in 1887.
had but / 800 residents in 1900.
BY 1860 this village" had be-
come a booming city of POI ,685
people.
In 1904 Oklahoma had only
1.l23 manufacturing establish
ments which employed 1856. BY
1858 the census credited the
state with 1887 industrial plants
employing 1888 people. Petrol
cum products output grew from
a few barrels in 1902 TO over
200 million barrels of oil and
nearly 700 billion cubic feet of
natural gas last year

$50 population. Indian raids
were still frequent. In 1870, the
entire state reported 283 grist
mills. 1913 saWmills. 80 furniture
shops. and IL foundries. Total
employment was 6.844 people.
In Iowa, Des MONIES was 10
years old in 1870 and had only
5,24l people. Sioux City had g.
40l. Some 9,S03.l84 acres of To-
wa land was then classed as I'M
tillable. In 1870 the city of Lin
coin. Nebraska had only 2.441
residents. Today i. has over 1873
900. Omaha had only 1908 peo-
pie when I was a boy and visit
ed my uncle there. but by 1900
it had 1925 residents, and now
has over 100000.
Kansas City was a struggling
village Of about 5000. but soon
became city of $4,000. AS late
as 1870 the map OF Missouri
showed a great uninhabited
swanpland stretching across the
southeast corner of the state.
This swamp area has since been
drained. bringing over a half
million acres Of most fertile
land into cultivation.
Springfield. Missouri. could
boast of only 5.555 residents in
1870, and as late as 1900 244 900
acres were open to free
entry. However, Springfield's
growth is not a matter of the
past. as is evidenced by the fact
that the l950-l960 decade was
the best in its history, with a
AS percent population gain.
The Springfield pattern and, for
that matter. the growth pattern
over much of the heartland,
makes one point clear: This re-
gion still has the vigor and Vi
tally of youth. Some of its most

First Negro Bishop
For Churches Named

The new suffragan bishop of the
nations most blueblooded EpiS-
copal diocese is the son of a din
ning-car waiter on the Pere Mar
quette Railroad. Upon his conse-
Grafton two weeks ago as one OF
the two auxiliaries to Boston Bish-
op AnSon Phelps Stokes Jr., the Rt.
Rev. John Melville Burgess be-
came the first Negro ever to serve
the Protestant Episcopal Church as
spiritual leader in a predominantly
white diocese.
Square and scholarly-looking,
Bishop Burgess, So, was elected on
solid qualifications. He did adj
vanced study in sociology at the
University of Michigan before
graduating from the Episcopal
Theological School at Cambridge,
Mass, in 1884. After his ordin-
was Archdeacon of Boston and SUI
ticeship at churches in Grand
Rapids and Cincinnati. In 1916 he
was called to the chaplaincy of
Washington's Howard University,
and five years later became a
cannon of Washington Cathedral.
Until his conservation, Burgess
was Archdeacon of Boston and SUI
perviSor of the Episcopal City Mis-
sion. Burgess was chosen for the
suffragan bishopric over four
white candidates on the first bal
lot at a convention of diocesan
priests last September.
Burgess takes his election as an
assignment to make his church
face up more directly to race-re-
lations problems. He believes that
progress in civil rights for the
Negro has been miraculous" but
that "of all institutions, the church
has been the least able to adjust
to the change in racial atmos-
phere." The reason: "The church
is too much white middle-clasS,
and reflects too much the con-
servatism of this social and econ
omic group. There is fear that

Bishop Burgess will continue to
command the efforts of his diocese
which comprise roughly the east
ern half of Massachusetts, = to
meet the new religious needs OF
inner Boston. He wants to expand
the church's chaplaincy services
to universities in the Boston area,
and thinks that the church should
develop a program of chaplains
for industry to bridge the gap be-
tween religion and the working
man. ''The church," he says,
SHOULD try to make religion rele-
want to the needs of all kinds of
people. The church is not a sect
organized around a particular doc
trine or Biblical text. 1t is great
fellowship bound by loyalty to
Christ.

Be filled with the spirit;
speaking one to another IN
psalms and hymns and spirit
ual songs, singing and maxi
ing melody with your heart
to the Lord.
-(Eph. 5:1S, 19l.
We would all like to make
a real contribution to the
happiness and well-being OF
others, but often we feel
limited. We feel that we must
have time and money in order
to help others. But the great
est help, the greatest gift we
can give to another is to have
faith that God Is In him and to
love and appreciate the WON
derful qualities OF God that
are expressed through him.
So speak 10 one another ~
singing.
