DURHAM, NORTH CAROLINA fficHßl&r?^^ $ CON $ 9 By DONALD LOVE A During the period of the prophets, they acted or served as the mediator or the man be tween God and man. When God had a message for the peo ple, the message was relayed through the prophets and it was the case when man wanted to reach God. Malachi, the last prophet ended this communication. ?.lan had no way of reaching God as before after Malachi's death. The priest was the only means of contact but his posi tion was not that God could be reached. From the death of Malachi up to John th( Baptist, this span of time is considered about four hun dred (400) years. This period was called the Dark Ages. Man only had the laws of Moses to guide them. These laws, many of them or most of them were misinterpreted causing man to miss the points of God's purposes. The church was set up to please those who took it upon themselves to run and operate the church by the way the laws were in terpreted. You can say, they formed denominations. Two we know of, there could have been more. The two so widely known are the Pharisees sect and the Sadducees sect. The Pharisees believed in after death and the Sadducees did not but both believed in God. Both had chief priests, scribes, and elders. These are they who were in full command. Any thing done or anybody did contrary to their set up paid the price, and in many in stances with death. After four hundred *40% years came John the Baptist, out of the wilderness, no doubt, looking just like a caveman, preaching repent ance. What did he look like? Nothing like an elder, a priest, and certainly not a chief priest. The length of time he preaches was a short duration. This group of church leaders were very much displeased with his doctrine because it was a different doctrine from theirs. This group formed a coalition against him and here they came on one occasion no doubt to have a show down. John the Baptist saw them coming from a distance and called to them: "0 genera tion of vipers, who hath warned you to flee from the wrath to come? Bring forth therefore fruits meet for re pentance; and think not to say within yourselves, we have Abraham to our father: for I say unto you, that God is able of these stones to '.aise up children unto Abraham." John the Baptist, had gained many converts and friends. He has a setup of his own which was far different bom theirs. Then comes Christ. Jesus preached the same doctrine John the Bap tist preached: "Repent: for the kingdom of heaven is at hamd." John the Baptist has been removed from the scene. As many friends as he had and the converts from his preaching, would have caused a division between him and Christ. His mission was accomplished. He was making the way straight for Christ. There are no ob stacles now between Christ and us. Christ called the multitude and his deciples and said to them: "Whosoever will come after me, let him deny him self, and take up his cross and follow me." He said much more. He also said: "Whoso ever therefore shall be ashamed of me and my words in this adulterous and sinful genora tion, of him also shall the Son of Man be ashamed, when He cometh in the glory of His Father with the holy angels." "Verily I say unto you, that there be some of them that stand, which shall not taste of death, till they have seen the Kingdom of God come with power." He carried Peter, James, and John with Him to a high mountain and was trans figured before their eyes. The scene was so amazing Peter said: "Master, it is good for us to be here; let us make thre* tabernacles, one for thee, one for Moses and one for Elias." God appeared in a cloud and overshadowed them. God spoke from this cloud: "This my beloved Son, hear him." When their eyes were open, they saw Jesus only. The Christian way is not a way of confusion, but a way of simplicity and understand ing. No one can be left-out and no one will be left in darkness. Instead of looking at so many different people, looking at so many ways, just focus your all and all on Jesus. There is a song: "Only a look at Jesus, one look will bring salvation and eternal life to win." Connolly Approved WASHINGTON - For mer Texas Gov. John B. Oonnal ly won swift Senate approval Monday as the new secretary of the Treasury, making him "the first Democrat in President Nix on's Cabinet. Without debate and with no objection, the Senate confirmed Connally's nomination by voice vote. Hunger Seen as National Emergency Calling for Immediate Steps It is hard for most middle class Americans to realize that some people go hungry in thk .country. But hunger does exist, despite the indisputable fact that there is "enough food available for every Ameri can to eat well." What the extent of hunger - and of malnutrition - is and what should be done about it are explored in a new Public Affairs Pamphlet, "Hunger In America," by Maxwell S. Ste wart. The pamphlet is available for 25 cents from the Public Affairs Committee, 318 Park Avenue South, New York, N. Y. 10016. "Hunger, and particularly malnutrition," Mr. Stewart writes, "is a complex pheno menon in America. The numb er ... who are malnourished has been estimated at from ten to twenty million. The reasons .. are varied. Many, undoubtedly most, of the hungry and malnourished are poor .. But .. many families, regardless of income, lack knowledge of the basic facts of diet and suffer from poor food habits. Finally, at least some of the responsibility must rest with food processors who have the power and the knowledge to provide more nourishing food and fuller information fl HI wov ■HBHMK >.

Shown above as she is escort- about it but have failed to do so." Stewart reports several telling instances of hunger found among the poor and the elderly and the very young, and adds: "Since hunger anc malnutrition are usually as sociated with poverty, the hungry children also suffer from a number of other handi caps such as bad housing, in ferior education, and frequent illness. It is difficult to disas sociate the,, effects of hunger from the effects of these other handicapping influences." Fur ther, as Dr. Charles Lowe, Chairman of the Committee on Nutrition of the American Academy of Pediatrics, has expressed it: "There is no evi dence that feeding people makes them smart, but it is in disputable that hunger makes them dull." Over the years, the federal government has developed two basic urograms for feeding the poor. Stewart describes the operation, and the limitations, of free surplus foods distribu tion and of the Food Stamp Program. In many counties, he reports, the former is being re placed of welfare and other low-income families to pur chase food coupons redeem able for a greater value at par cluded (loft to right) Miss Doris Alston.

But not only the poor suffer from malnutrition. A 1968 Department of Agricul ture survey - covering all sec tions of the country and all income groups - found that 20 per cent of the population had a nutritionally poor diet. Why should this be so? Among the reasons Stewart considers are sectional and cul tural food patterns; recent changes in eating habits affect ing a largg part of the popula tion -- especially coffee breaks and snacks of filling but not particularly nutritious foods; and the lack of enrichment of many foods. Why, Stewart asks, doesn't the food industry develop for domestic distribu tion - as has been done for developing countries - "Low cost nutritionally balanced foods - with taste appeal"? Among the urgent recom mendations, based to a great extent on the deliberations at the White House Conference on Food, Nutrition,and Health a year ago, Stewart sees the need for some form of guaran teed income and more ade quate Social Security benefits and related services that affect health and well-being, such as comprehensive health care and day care centers. The latter, he Sr.. Greensboro: and Dr M R. Blair, director of the con ference.

He discusses, too, how the Food Stamp Program can be strengthened and the need for a greatly expanded school lunch program, set up in a way that "would avoid the stigma of poverty and would assure all children of at least two nutritious meals a day." As a back-up to better pro grams of nutrition education, more uniform and informative tables of all foods is urged. One recommendation that came out of the Conference was that "food advertisers de vote 15 per cent of their bud gets to public service nutrition advertising." Reviewing all the elements needed to eliminate hunger and malnutrition, Stewart con cludes: "Hunger is not a pro blem that will ... be solved by increasing food production. That has already been achieved without a noticeable diminu tion of the problem. It is not simply a matter of educatioa... Hunger is intimately associated with poverty, and the causes of poverty are deeply imbedded in the structure of our society. But we cannot wait for a re stricting of society ... We have the food; we must take simply and direct steos.... .to see to it that the food is made available to the hungry. To do this, we must, indeed, treat hunger as an immediate 'national emergency.
