Lutheran Pastor Reveals
Weak Church Record in
Race Relations
VALPARAISO, Ind. (ANP) —
The record of the Christian
church in its reaction to sla¬
very and racjal injustice is
unspeakably abominable and a
nauseating stench in the nos¬
trils of Gpd,” Rev. Ralph Moel-
loring told a human relations
workshop in a n essay prepared ,
for delivery recently at Valpa -1
rais university.
Former pastor of First Im¬
manuel Lutheran church, Chi¬
cago and now a Danforth
scholar .at Harvard university,
Rev. Moelloring’s topic was
:‘The Record and Reputation
of the Church in Race Rela¬
tions.”
It was the third of six ma¬
jor essays at a workshop for
professional church people un-
derway last week at Valparais. j
“The whole history of human \
servitude and imperialistic ex¬
ploitation,” he said, has been
either tolerated, sanctioned, or
blessed by acclesiastical lead ;
ers.” I
Continuing the strong accu- j
sation, he commented, “Within :
the United States the overall!
pattern with a few notable ex-1
ception, has been to follow
policy of expediency and con -
form with the prevailing cli-
mate according of opinion, to the epoch varying only the j
or

Rev. Moellering pointed out a
gap between policy and prac-

in favor of integration, there

REV. \V. L. COTTRELL
Jackson extends a . welcome to
all the ministers of the city '' M “ J to "“
and fellowshi P with the
evangelist and First A B.
ing this revival
gat.ion in the Protestant
churches, and there is
evidence that these mueh-her-
aided pronouncements of offi¬
cial bodies have been taken se¬
riously on thp local level.”
He indicated that the Negro
cannot help but reflect on the
anomaly that Protestant
churches are disturbed by the
imprisonment of their people
and religious persecution in
Russia, but are completely un¬
perturbed by the plight of the
Negro in America.
The Negro finds little
in the contention that church-
es are eager to save the hea
then in darkest Africa when
basic rights and economic well-
being are denied to a whole
race of people right in Ameri
ca >> he said.
“Segregation in the church is
unthinkable. Christ did not
preach to white men in
place and black men in the
other. Lutheranism, if it is
to perform its duty, must not
procrastinate in actively soli-
citing Negro members,
Of course, the Lutheran
church cannot expect to gain
Negro follov/ers until it
has demonstrated a sincere in-
terest in helping the Negro ac-
quire his social and political
rights,”

JACKSON—In sad but loving
memory of my dearest beloved
husband and loving father
tfc;
FRANK JACKSON, JR.
who departed this life
eleven years ago this month
August 9, 1948
This month is filled with sad
memories that is all in mine.
All the medicine from the
doctors gave my love one no
ease and then my Frankie
was tired. He had finished
his labor. Then Jesus came
soon one morning 7:10 and
touched him and gave him
ease, that he might rest. It’s
heart breaking when our
loved ones are taken away,
clear out of sight. Who I love
so dear I have never looked
forward for that sad day to
come, thinking of you darling
to be here a little longer in
this world. Eleven sad, lonely
years for me. Nothing seems
the same. The sweet memo¬
ries that grow around my
heart for you, my dear, will
never die. Sometimes I get
so depressed, I can hardly
make at. But the Lord will
make a way somehow. We
loved our Frankie so dear in
life and we love you the
same in death and always
will. I pray to the good Lord
to comfort me, that I will be
able to meet my Frankie
someday. Always will be re¬
membered, never to toe for¬
gotten. Sleep on, my darling,
we loved you but God loves
you best.

Days of sadness still come over
us,
Secret tears do often flow.
Memories keep you ever near us
Though you left us one year
ago.
They say time heals all sorrow
And helps us to forget.
But time so far has only proved
How much we m'ss you yet.
