LOSING OUT?—N o rth
Carolina Baptists may still be
“as numerous as English spar
rows”, as the late J. M.
Broughton phrased it one time,
but there is some worry in
high places that racial strife
may be converting colored
Baptists over to Catholicism.
The Baptists are bickering
among themselves in scores
of their churches throughout
North Carolina about what
to do about Negroes who are
eager to become active mem
bers of their flocks.
The problem lies festering.
And, when settled in this or
that church, is—still unset
tled. But the Catholics open
ed their schools to Negro boys
and girls more than five
years ago.
If it were left entirely to
the pastors of the churches,
many of them would be
wholly integrated by snow
fall. ' However, the boards of
deacons do not have these
same deep-seated convictions
and neither do most of the
church members.
Meantime, the Catholics
make hay.
Marse Grant, editor of the
vigorous and influential Bap
tist paper, “Biblical Record
er”, reports in the Septem
ber issue of a conference he
recently attended in these
parts :
“While Southern Baptists
continue to fumble the ball,
others are running with it
full speed. In a strategic
state meeting which the RE
CORDER editor attended re
cently, there were 45 people
of all faiths in attendance.
Fully half of these present
were Roman Catholic lead
ers, although they represent
only one percent of the pop
ulation of North Carolina.
They are now pushing to the
front as the saviors of the
Eula Greenwood
racial situation. Don’t un- 1
derestimate the effectiveness 1
of their witnessing effort.”
And, point out Baptist 1
leaders in private conversa- i
tion, don’t overlook the fact 1
the Negro knows that John ■
F. Kennedy and Robert Ken- l
nedy, tried-and-true friends, i
are Catholic to the bone. If i
the drift continues, the color- '
ed people will leave in droves 1
the solid-white Baptist, Met- <
hodist, Presbyterian, and Kpis- :
copal churches and swing to 1
the integrated houses of wor
ship of the Roman Catholic (
Church,
NO DEAL—With tobacco
companies being attacked for ]
low prices and cigarettes sel- i
ling for 25 cents a pack— (
and ever going higher—fag ■
jokes are becoming more pop- ,
ular in leaf-rich North Caro- ;
lina.
We heard one last week
about this 90-year-old man
a leading tobacco company
found out in Tennessee. He
had started smoking as a boy
and was still a heavy smoker.
Well, this was the person they
needed to counteract bad
cigarette publicity.
They asked him if he could
come to New York for a spec
ial television interview. He
was carried away with the
idea, had never been any
where, and everything was
going well with the plans un
til he learned he was to go
on the air at nine o’clock
one morning. Right there he
put on the brakes; and they
wanted to know why.
“Well, to tell you the
truth” he said, “I don’t stop
coughing mornings till about
twelve.”

Well, we wouldn[t know.

no doubt has retained a good

CHOOSING SIDES—With
two Democratic candidates for
office already announced—we
refer now to Mansion-wishers
—and another expected about
frost, the big companies in
the State will soon start to
choose sides.
This usually works in this
way: This Northeastern North
Carolina firm, for example,
wants to be with the winner.
So, one of their leading of
ficials will line up with Prey
er; another with Dan Moore;
and a third with Dr. Lake.
One of these may not even
be a company officer, but
one of the most important
stockholders. The firm is in
the background,
Each will work hard and
earnestly for his man and,
in the campaign, will make
handsome contributions for
his particular candidate. In
this way, no matter who wins
out for Governor, the firm
will have a friend in the
office. This happens over
and over- again.
