on "Christian Education, A. M. E.
^ion Church, in the new halt-mil-

ing,- Iiivifi®stone Colleee, was fea
tured with two resounding mes-
pales from Bishops W. A. Hilliard
aifd W. J. Walls, on the theme
“The Church’s Responsibility for
Freedom”, Sunday.
Bishop Hilliard delivered the
morning messai^e and took for s
subject, “The View Behind the
Seen”. He bemoaned the fact that
the world is seen as a disturbed,
distracted, perplexed and sorely
shaken place, where many of the
once cherished valus now lie in
the debris of castrophe and humao
hAte.

ties if man 'would cast his eye
beyond that which he sees and en
visions a world inhabited by peo
ple of goodwill, united under a
government, whose leader would
b*' motivat^ by Ood, to seek new
solutions and practice them, in re
-telalioni^ ^ ^
Bishop W, J. Walls, to thfl key
note speech, followed the same
trend Simdav Wight and told th'
mare than 2,COO deltliates, fr6n
throuphout ArtrCiIca and fron
foreign countrieA. that Jesus Chris
was that pd^J’er bey6nd (he vlsfbl>
that came to earth to establish
the very essence of freedom
He pictured Christ as being tliv,
exponent of that lasting peac>-
and the church as the doorway
by which He planned to establish
that unity. “Jesus is our peacf
and dfi"lared that it would noi
come out of a superior race, but
an elect race. God is looking to
Pivft the world to one race, the
elect-race. Jesus Christ came to
build out of many races, one
great race flo'ik and goodwill”
said Bishop Walls.
The speaker was conscious of
the part the Negro church had
played to make freedom work.
He said that the AME Zion Church
was the first race church tna'
decided that its communicants
would have a place to worship God
according to the dictates of theh
own conscience and without humil
iation. He admonished the chil
dren to loek around and see what
QaA had ^w)uiM,^thro tile AME
iion Church and told them that
it did not appear what It would
be if we looked beyond the power
of man, to the unseen reality, that
power we call God.

NEW YORK — An NAACP
Legal Defense Fund motion to
consolidate the three federal
court actions growing out of the
Albany, Oa. protest movement
was filed today in Albany by
C. B. King before the Federal
District Court for the Middle
District of Georgia.
Mrs. Constance Baker Motley,
chief counsel for the Negro de
fendants, said that today’s con
solidation motion was brought
because the same issues were
present in all the cases.
District Judge J. Robert El
liot of Alt>any Is now hearing
a motion brought by city of
ficials to enjoin the Negro
citizens from demonstrating
against segregation. No hearings
have been held on two pending
Legal Defehsirrund suits to de
segregate Albany public facili
ties and to stop Albany of
ficials from interfering with
peaceful picketing.
Judge Elliot on July 10 en
joined Rev. Martin Luther King
and other affiliated integration
groups participa^ng ^ the Al
bany- Movement from demon
strating against city official*.
His injunction was upsejt by
Appeals Court Judge Elbert P.
Tuttle on July 24 on the basis
that Judge Elliot lacked juris-
diotion.
The pending omnibus public
facility suit ask.s for desegregat
ion of Albany libraries, audi
toriums, parks, playgrounds and
other recreational facilities and
buses, bus terminals, taxicabs,
theaters and other places of
public amusement.
Since the Albany arrests of
more than 700 Negro citizens
began last December, the Fund
has spent approximately .$10,-
COO in lepal costs it was esti
mated by Director ■ Counsel
Jack Greenberg this week. Mr.
Greenberg said that the real
legal work is just beginning, as
most of the convictdons and the
de.segrogation suit will probably
have to be appealed to higher
courts.
