H, Clanton, director! of religious education of this convention; Dr. O. S. Bullock,* chairman of executive executive • committee of Baptist State Convention of * North Carolinao ' and pastor of First Baptist Church, Raleigh, a series of high ly educational and inspirational meetings ^re being ),eld through- out the State. These meetings' reveal outstanding cooperative efforts on the part of leading ministers and laymen of this le- nominatlon, a strong element in ttie. program, to make the Negro ft well rounded citizen. Particul arly, as brought oit by the speak ers Bt the initial meeting recent- l3’ held there is a pronounced in terest on the part of ^fie repre sentative audiences, to the extent that this campaign will largely contribute to the progre.ss of the race and make the Negro Bap tists of North Carolina a potent factor in the venyard of Chris tian advaneement. ■Pi'ablema affecting the church are being discussed in a frank and comprehensive manner by the officials at)d progressive members of Bapti.s^t churches the regional meetings held at strategic points in each area. Vital phases of city, urban and r'-iral churches are “highlighted’ at the meetings wholly devoted ta round discussions by ministers and laymen In the e- Bpective areas. A notic«|abIe fea ture of these sessions ate the splendid attendance on the part of the youth and solutions for the many problems besetting them. I At the final meeting of the Belies of meeting held at various points, during the week Just past, much thought was provoked by the problems of the present’ day church. At the meeting held at the First Baptist Church’ Rich Square, Rev. P. A. Bishop, pas tor, in part said that this cam paign of enlightment and whdle- soine approach to the problems claiming the attenion of the ad vanced group - of the church evidenced the fact that Rev. W. C, Sommervitie and his co-work ers were effectively "helping solve problems that were momentous. He asserted that under this type of safe j,nd trained leadership an epochal progress for spiritual and material devel(J)ment of the rSce in North Carolina was e- markably being made. Among the pertinent state ments made by the following Victims Safety baptist LEADERS’ AND OFFICIALS religious leaders'dutin^t the week Statements that elicited inapiring reepontta from their audiemces, were; o That there should be a more systematic method of handling the finances of all the auxiliaries of the church as so excellentfly set forth by the financial ad ministration of Hr, O. S. Bullr^k pastor of Pii'st BrtpUst ('hurdh, Rfleigh, and that tliere'should Im* one treasurer for the funds cf'ljected and di.*!buraed by thrt I church and its auxliaries; that .through religious education pro moted through the Sunday School and BYP0, many of the prtlblemsf affecting the youth of the church and the unrdachod youth, will be concretely solve** under the supervision of Rev. J, * II. Clanton, director of religious i" education, with the full coopera tion of the home, school and church and agencies at _work for the development of Negro youth; that there is a significant need' for a trained religious leadership imbued with the spirit of Christ to direct a membersihip whicli •should be wholly given to flie fundamentals of Christianity, were among the utterances of Rev. W. C. Sommcrville, general secretary of. the Baptist State Convention of North Carolina, who ehampined an assuring ai- tltJide that would help youth to function more helpfully in th« activities of the church. This week regional meeting were held at Ahivski© ftud Selma. The week of the 2Cth meetings will be held at Chapel Hill, Bur lington and Greensboro. Wliat iesws Travfl NEW YORK, (ANP) C. A. R. McDowell, diki«tur of the divis ion of Negro activities of the U. S. Travel bureau, with of fices in New York, has compiled an interes|ing numiber of figur es on what the Negro spen^ls annually for travel in the United StKtes. Said^Mr. McDowell; “A study fif the reports of the Natio»vil Resource.s Commfttee on Consum er incomes and their I expendi- turts for 193'5-36, reveals that there were 1,980,320 non-relief Negro families, nut including those on the Pacific Coast and tire far West. The avtrage in come for these families i.s ?80& per year they spend* an overage of $70 per year for all forms of travel a ■ conservative estimate | thus makmg a total of $140,000, j OOfl far travel expenses and other incidentals pertaining to travel.” ANNAPOI,[R, Mr. — “Y o u may be sure that in eonjunctiun With law enforcing offitials, I am d-t.Tniined to see that the l»w i.-, respected and the {)rderly proi-sses are followed." Thi.'i was the statenjenit made hy Marylatid’.s Governor |Iert)ert H, O’Conor in a letter to the Nhtiiinal AsRociaition for the Ailvaneenu-jit of Colored yerterday anl made public by the Association todaj, m repl^ to a telegram urging that he use every precaution in protecting 21-year-0Id Mrs. Martha Blake Collick and her fourteen ear old (laughter, Lillian, from a fitockton, Md., lyneh-iTiob. Mrs. Collick, her daughter, her husband, Dave Collick, „ n d fiecrge Selby are all held in the death of Haj-vey Pilchard, white well to do farmer, on Sunday, February IS.
