IKE’S RESPONSIBILITY TO OUR MOTHERS, USA—
The closing of our banks past Tuesday reminds us that our
new President h»s a grave responsibility in his campaign
promise to end the Korean war . . . An Armistice is a tem
porary suspension of hostilities be
tween two nations at war, by mu
tual agreement. A local armistice
may be arranged by any part of the
opposing forces; a general armis
tice can be effected only by the
commanders-in-chief or by the
home governments. The Armistice
applied for by the Germans to end
World War 1 was signed at 5:00
A. M. on November 11, 1918, in the
Forest of Compiegne. On the same
site, France signed the German
dictated armistice terms on June
22, 1940; armistice between France and Italy was concludw
in Rome two days later . . . There was an Armistice for VD
and VJ Days, and now the mothers are expecting too soon
VK Day . . . also a hard pill for Ike to swallow is his prom
ise of reduction of taxes which will take some time . . . How
ever, it must be done before 1956 if his party expects to com
plete in the next big fight.
NATIONAL NEWS TELESCRIPTIONS—A card to this

ginia State College here Satur- shoot for a big score through the
day, November 15 of this week
in a football game which shapes
up as one of the most important
clashes of the season. While the
Petersburg outfit is favored in
the contest, by reason of its rec
ord for the current season, this
may mean little when the two
earns begin bumping heads here
in the Greensboro Stadium.
Sal Hall’s underdog aggrega
tion upset the favored Aggies
last year in the Capital Classic
dishine out a bitter defeat which
knocked them out of the confer
ence title. This is one which
the Aggies have not forgotten
and by reason of this fact the
game may turnout to be a gen
uine grudge battle. At least, Bill
Bell’s- boys tiave just about the
same opportunity as rested in
the hands of Virginia State prior
to the Classic.
This is one which Virginia
State will have to win. The Ag
gies want it equally as badly.
Defeated once in a surprise by
Morgan State College, the Aggies
should be rough for the remaind
er of the season. They always
are, after dropping one such as
the homecoming setback. Of
course, Virginia State baasts of

which tended t9 tie Biahop Grace
iji with Becton murder “due to
jealousy,” aides of the Portugeese
born niinister whose churches
extend from New England to
Cuba and West to California,
said: “If he did make such state
ments, then he’s liable for suit.”
Attorneys for Bishop Grace
announced this week they are
just about ready to go to court
with their suit against the maz-
azine which published the
charges in its September 1952 is-
In making the first official
public statement about the sen
sational murder of Elder Becton
in 1933, the House of Prayer of
ficials—for the first time—gave
public credence to the idea that
Bishop Grace had led his group
into a position of pre-eminent
dominance in cultist regions,
both numerically and financial
ly-
started Out In The Sonth
‘Coming up from the *tent
day’ in the South in the middle
Twenties,” the elders say in an
official statement, "Bishop Gritce
with his faithful followers has
built one of the greatest organi
zations of today with more than
3,000,000 members and millions
of dollars worth of property. He
also has hotels, apartment build
ings and land—aU for the peo
ple of his parish.”
Denies Magazine Story
Equally as bitterly denied was
the report carried by the maga
zine which said that “This House
of Prayer has as its financial
backers some white men who
are the actual owners of this
chain of chiirches of which Bi
shop Grace is head; that these
men are interested only in the
financial angle of this chain.”
The magazine also said: “Bi
shop Grace travels from place to
place all over the country. All
monies collected are turned over
to the hands of the white men.”
“A damnable lie,” said the
elders of this accusation, and
pointed to Bishop Grace’s having
the Metropolitan. Life Insurance
Company move its Harlem of
fices from the block at Eighth
Avenue and 125th Street in New
York City, which he had pur
chased, because they wouldn’t
rent the ground floor offices to
Negroes.
“Bishop Grace is working for
his people,” the elders said, “and
any charge to the contrary is a
lie.”
“Bishop Grace only uses
what God gave him to give the
the people,” the elden con-
tlnne In their statement. "Thus
we find millions today who are
content with the true goapel
of Jesns Christ as he preaohei
it again. The Lord said: 'All
liars shall have their part in
the lake of fire,’ . , . Kev. Ui
8.”
Never Met Becton
Bishop Grace made it known
that he had never met Elder Bec
ton, and that there had never
been any hostile feelings be
tween them. “There was no rea
son wliy there should have
been,” he said. “Elder Becton
had his crowds and I had mine,
so there wasn't any friction.”
In fact, said Elder M. F.
Spencer, secretary to the Gen
eral Council of Elders of the
House of Prayer, "Elder Becton
himself once said there were on
ly two preachers in Philadalphia,
himself and Bishop Grace.”
Charges Jealousy Among
Negro Preacher*
The General Coimcil said that
jealousy among Negro preach
ers, especially the Baptists, were
the basic causes for the efforts to
“crucify” Bishop Grace, as they
put it. “There were forty-four
preachers who had him arrested
more than sixteen times,” they
said. "If he was the type of mur
derer, surely he would have
taken revenge on those who per
secuted him.”
It was pointed out tliat Cap
tain Kelly’s claim that the white
slayer of Elder Becton on the
night of May 21, 1933 was
member of Bishop Grace’s Phil
adelphia church, could not have
been true, because House of
Prayer records show no such
member, and also show .that Bi
shop Grace held no baptizings
of members in New Jersey other
than one at Lawnside in 1930
Bishop Grace, the General
Council says, was in the South
when the Becton slaying rocked
the East. “That’s a vicious lie,”
was the bishop's own comment
on the charge that white people
get the monies raised by the
House of Prayer.
Among lush New York prop
erties owned by the House of
Prayer is the swank 595 Edge
combe Avenue building, one on
Riverside Drive, the entire block
of Eighth Avenue and 125th
Street, and many other proi)er-
ties all over the nation. These
revelations clearly abaw.that Bi
shop Grace and his group are
far ahead of Father Divine and
any and all other religious cult
leaden in the USA.
Churches End
Financial Rallies
Two churches, pastored by
Rev. Eli B. Thompson, have re
cently closed successful rallies
that netted more than $1800.
On October 26, Mill Hill Bap
tist Church, located in Person
County, ended the morning ser
vice with a total collection of
$273.26.
The evening service was in
the form of a program by the
Social Savings Club which re
sulted in a total of $142.21 be-*
ing raised, or a total for the day
of $414.41.
On November 9, the Warren
Chapel Baptist Church, pastored
by Rev. Thompson raised a
total of 1,461.56.
Warren Chapel was organized
in 1909 and now has a member-
of 211. Both churches have pros
pered greatly under the leader
ship of Rev. Thompson.

or run at her, nor did he speak
to her. She stated he was com

five miles an hour and “kept
watching me with his head out
of the window.” She also stated
he was driving on the wrong
side of the road and was not
watching where he was going.
“When I heard the motor stop, I
started running as fast as I
could,” she said.
Ingram was first convicted of

elated Press as the fifth best
news story of the year. It has
been acknowledged far and wide
that had it not been for the alert
ness of the TIMES representa
tive, that Ingram would have
been railroaded to prison.
The maximum sentence he
could have received was two
years. The mere fact that Judge
Armstrong only gave Ingram a
suspended sentence of six
months, sustains the belief of
many that an apparent notorious
attempt to railroad him to prison
for two years by the Recordw’s
Court of Yanceyville was un
justifiable. The six months sus-'
pended sentence was apparently
more of an attempt by the court
at face saving for a segment of
determined citizens for convic
tion in Yanceyville and Caswell
County than a 1}ellef on the part
of the Presiding Judge tiiat In
