AJVLE, Zion Church Plans Expansion ISATimDAT, MAT Sri, IMt nn CABOUNA ■WiCTf rAOi' MEMPHIS Bishop James Claire Taylor presiding prelate of the 10th Dis trict, A.M.E. Zion Church, told an anxious crowd here recently that his denomiatnon is plann ing an extensive expansion pro gram and that it would in all probability start here. The large numbers of un churched people who have come here from the rural areas gave the Bishop the idea that a great job could be done. Members of his district came from Mississippi, Alabama, Ok lahoma and as far as Texas to take part in the dedication of the Episcopal residence, which was bought in 194B. The Bishop'di^closed that this did not mean that there would be any deemphasis on rural church work, but rather felt that it to would be revamped and revised so as to serve the great need of those who remain to fill the bread basket of the country. The removal of large numbers, intra and interstate, to the towns and cities make such a program mandatory. Many felt this as a sign of what the denomination would do at its forthcoming General Conference which will be held in Brooklyn, New York, May 7-21. It is believed th'tft in view of the fact that a large number of Negroes still live in the South that a concerted effort will be made to chart the religious life of a large number of this pop- the Episcopal residence, work ulation. Aside from the dedication of has been started on the New Warner’s Temple Church. This proeject is destined to give Mem phis its' first Metropolitan church. The Rev. C. B. Beamon, Pastor, is hopeful that this edi fice will be completed this year. The contract has been let. Dean Burney Of Clark Speaker At A. And T. GREENSBORO “No society can long endure without morality and God,” warned Mrs. P. F. Bumey, prin cipal speaker at the first Wo man’s Day Service at A. and T. College last Sunday. Speaking from the subject, “The Keeper of the Springs,” the noted dean of women at Clark College, Atlanta, Ga., strongly denounced the modem day trend away from the age old principles of noble woman hood. Citiitf the need of more godly women, the si>eaker stat ed, "We now face a religious crisis. The emancipation of wo men began with religion, and certainly, must ^d with It”. She concluded her plea for the perpetuity of noble womanhood by the audience, “We need to day, women who would rather be morally right than socially correct.” The program, sponsored by the Junior-Senior Women Coun selors as a part of the regular chapel series, also featured special recognition of Mrs. F. D. Bluford, wife of Dr. Bluford, president of the college, and Dean Jean Spinner for fheir con tributions to finer womanhood on the campus and in the com munity. They, along with the principal speaker, were present ed bouquets of flowers on be half of the sponsoring organiza tion by Frances Andrews. Both made brief acceptance speeches.

Bunche, director of the Trustee Division of the United Nations and Nobel Peace Prize winner for 19S0, said in a statement this week endorshig the 19S2 Ameri can Cancer Society’s Cancer Crusader fund drive. “We live in a dangerous world,” he said, “but of all the dangers confronting us, none is so ever-present and formidable as disease. In our perpetual bat tle against disease a major and insidious enemy is cancer.” Urging generous contributions to the 1952 Cancer Crusade, the national goal of which is |16,- 000,000, Dr. Bunche asserted tiiat the American Cancer So- city through Its highly effective program of research, education and service, has saved countless lives in the past and can save far more in the future if “each one of us will but help. Lflyrreea White Soys; Prejudice Is Bigots’ Undoing NEW YORK Prejudice is a two-edged sword. It hurts the one upon whom injustices are inflicted, and it hurts the one who inflicts the injustice. Senator Richard Brevard Rus sell, Jr. is a victim of southern race prejudice. Just as surely as millions of Negroes from Georgia have been needlessly iiandicapped, so is the Senator. Let us look at his case. Senator Russell wants to be the President of the United States. He has been very busy lately informing the people of his avialability. From the way he tias l>een presenting himself, one would feel that he is as capable as any man who has his hat in the ring. Those who have seen him on television and heard him on the radio are fav orably impressed with him. The composure the , Senator maintained while answering the battery of questions fired~ at him by newsmen was impres sive. He responded with logic and diplomacy to their queries. He seems to liave an intelligent grasp of things and very likely would make a good President in these trying times. Perhaps he Would be the ideal person to lead us. However, race prejudice will prevent the good Senator from being President. Before Mr. Rus sell was able to becom a Senator from Georgia he had to pro claim his belief in the race propaganda popular in Georgia. Mr. Russell has had to make statements that showed lie either hated or feared Negroes. The stand Mr. Russell takes on civil rights and FEPC seals his doom as fu as the Presiden cy is concerned. There is no way of telling whether the Senator or any other southerner actual ly believes what he says or not, but their political opponents will capitalize on what they say. Candidates from other sections of the country may feel as Sen ator Russell says he feels. They might actually dislike Negroes and all other minorities enough to want to take away all of their rights. But these candidates from other sections refrain from making statements to that ef fect, and they do not have to play up tIAt issue to get elected. Senator Russell’s attitude will be played up in New York, Pennsylvania, Ohio, Illinois and a few more states with large minority p>opulations, and since these minorities furnish a bal ance of power, they will prevent the Senator’s election. It is interesting to note that there has been only one south erner elected to i^the Presidency since 1869. In a way the entire nation suffers. Many brilliant. patriotic and worthwhile men are denied the oportunity o serving as President by bUnd, unreasoning race i««Judice. Pre judice is a two-e4(ed mord.
