On Sunday, Dr. William Holmes Borders, pastor of the Wheat Street Biaptist church of Atlanta urged the gradautes to combine their education and religion to serve humanity and help solve prt'ssing race prob lems. Dr. Borders delivered the baccalaureate address at four o’clock in services at the Men’s gymnasium. On the subject o' racial segre gation, the speaker said that America must ‘cither practice true democracy or, like Rome, Greece, and Babylon, pass from the face of the earth. Referring to his own experiences of for eign travel, he said people all over Europe and Asia are dis turbed by “the lynching of Till, the shooting of Preacher George Lee, the stoning of Autherine Lucy by a mob of 1,000 whites, and the open defiance of trc Su preme Court by Jimmy Byrnes, Herman Talmadge and Marvin Griffin.” In times, like these, he con tinued, “The Negro must com bine his religion and his educa tion and identify himself with his people at both their lowest and highest, helping them to do well at their jobs, whatever they may be. Rev. Borders said the Ameri can Negro has progressed from slavery to a position as “the I themometer of American demo- I cracy*," and that because of world pressure the American white man must come to terms with the Negro on this basis. In meeting the challenge, the speaker said, the Negro must cultivate his own sense of hu mor, respect each other as child ren of God, and strengthen the strong points of Negro culture within the overall framework of American culture. -Banker- (Continued from Page One) graduate of Morehouse College of Atlanta.
