OTHER EDITORS (Continued from page 4) for a third consecutive term, was stopped 2 to I by voters who said. “No thanks, Frank.” Riuo is one of those hard core racists who let his true colors show. His rantings ravings ab^Mist “blacks and liberals” and his call to voters to “vote white” appi ^priately backfired in his ali-too-familiar face. The people of Philadelphia have done them selves a favor as the large majority of them obviously realize. Throughout the country blacks fared well as far as maintaining the 16 House seats they controlled in the last Ckmgress. Even those black of fice holders who did not run for reelection had their seats filled by other black candidates. There were some disappoin tments. Merv Dymally failed in his bid for reelection as Lt. Governor of California and in the same state former Congressman Yvonne Braith- waite Burke \ as unsuccessful in her campaign for the office of Attorney General. But there is good reason to feel that these two bright politicians who have served their state so well in the past, will once again enter the political arena. —The MIAMI TIMES Methodist Body Says Heritage Meaningful i * THE CAROLIN1AN-THUR8., NOVEMBER 16,1078—PAGE 11 DAYTON, Ohio — The heritage of 200 years of Methodist Christianity in America can be a meaningful launching pad for mission in the future, says a United Methodist Bicentennial Plan ning Committee working on the observance of the 200th anni versary of Methodism in this country. The concept of the past as prologue to the future will be recommended to the Council of Bishops and the General Council on Ministries (GCOM), who, in turn, will make recommendations on the ob servance to the denomination's 1980 General Conference.

Philip Randolph, retired leader of the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters, recently hailed the defeat of a "right to work" law in Missouri as an import ant victory for blacks, and “a stunning defeat” for right-wing forces. If adopted, the "right to work” measure would have banned freely negotiated union sh(^ in Missouri, thus weak ening labor unions and the ecoiMmic power of their black members. Randolph, the 89-year-old dean of black labor leaders, commended black Missourians for playing ”a decisive role in soundly defeating a socially regressive measure. “For black people.” Ran dolph declared, "this victory has special importance It serves as an ominous warning to the New Right that black people will reject any and all measures designed to weaken their economic power.” Bayard Rustin, president of the A. Philip Randolph Insti tute, reported that the Insti tute's Missouri affiliates played a leading role in the broad coalition of groups opposed to the "right to work” measure. “The coalition." Rustin Said, "did the impossi ble by defeating the well-fi nanced legions of union-bust ers " Seek Minorities In Library Sehool ProgTRin To Share \Mth You BY VICE BISHOP MILDRED RUFFIN Lord Jesus as we come to the middle of another month, the month that is set aside for Thanksgiving.

Meeting here Nov. 5-7, the Bicentennial Planning Com mittee elected officers, ap proved a timetable to recom mend for the observance and adopted a statement encourag ing Jurisdictional and annual conference programming for the observance. They began work on a wide-range of possible ideas — from a national event in December 1984 to a traveling Methodist exhibit (“a traveling circuit rider on wheels”) to a major t^vision event. The committee agreed it was important that local churches be given opportunity for participation and heard strong counsel that all parts of the observance should be incluaive of all ethnic groupa, (rf women and of the various predecessor bodies now a part of United .Methodism.
