NEVER ON SUNDAY—
UNTIL NOW
Last Sunday, this writer went
to church. Expecting there to
pray, praise God, and be in
structed on his relationship to
God and the observation of his
religious beliefs, he was instead
subjected to a political speech.
The particular church shall
remain unidentified here, ex
cept to say it is a Christian one.
And anonymous shall be the
minister of the gospel whose
sermon—the word is used ad
visedly—is the topic of this
article.
The assembled congregation
was asked to recall the recent
anti-Viet Nam war demonstra
tions that were held on April
15, specifically to two mam
moth ones in New York and
San Francisco. The preacher,
commented that he knew what
question had gone through all
of our minds as we watched the
television coverage of the two
rallies. The question, he .said,
was obvious; “Why are these
people demonstrating ? ” The
answer, he confided, was “For
Peace. ”
From there, our speaker’s
train of thought moved in what
he apparently deemed to be a
logical direction: to Auschwitz,
then to the German war trials.
Reminding us, with graphic
descriptions, that millions of in
nocent persons were unmerci
fully tortured and murdered at
Auschwitz, our minister of
Christ’s gospel examined the
excuses given by individual de
fendants at the war trials: some
said they were acting on gov
ernment orders; others con
fessed to being convinced by
government propaganda that
their acts of torture and geno
cide were morally right.
Could this not be, we were
asked as we sat in church on a
Spring morning, the reason for
the peace marches—that boys
in the United States are being
forced by their government to
fight a war in a foreign nation
where America has no right to
Swing.... Into Spring!

Eight accepted
for Job Corps
Word has been received that
eight girls from this area have
been accepted into the Job
Corps, according to Donald F.
Jensen, Director of the Neigh
borhood Youth Corps office in
Newberry. All of the girls are
now enrolled in the Neighbor
hood Youth Corps program.
Five of the girls have been
been assigned to a Job Corps
center located at Jersey City,
New Jersey, and there will go
to the center at Drums, Penn.
All of them will leave for their
assignments during the week
of April 24th.
be? Were not the peace dem
onstrators standing up against
our bombing of the poor Viet
namese people? After all,what
right did we have to impose
our way of life upon the peo
ple of Viet Nam?
While we were pondering
these questions, the speaker
calmly added that the United
States has maintained its own
Auschwitz for many years in
Mississippi and Alabama. We
were given not the slightest
hint that the comparison was
figurative.
The Nazi concentration
camps, the American war ef
fort in Viet Nam, and the con
ditions south of the Mason-
Dixon line were all lumped to
gether as examples of man’s
evil tendency to dominate other
men. We were exhorted to pray
that man cease this desire for
domination. The peace march
ers, we were told, were demon
strating their concern for the
terrible moral problem.
Communism was never men
tioned. Not a word about Red
aggression, torture, murder,
concentration camps, genocide,
or terrorism. Our political ser
mon was not going to be sullied
by any illusion to another side
of the story.
This writer is well aware
that politics has invaded re
ligion on a large scale during
the last few years. But, like
Thomas who refused to believe
until he saw, the awareness
had never been a personal ex
perience. Until last Sunday.
Five members of the Neighborhood Youth Corps are
being inducted as Job Corps members by Mrs. Lillie K.
Pratt. They are Portia Austin, Dora Margaret Wise,
Ruby Mae Ruth, Dorothy Ann Hall and Valerie Sims.

The girls selected for the Job
Corps service at the New Jer
sey center are: Henrietta Dav
enport, of Silverstreet, Valerie
Sims, Dora M. Wise, Dorothy
Ann Hall and Ruby Mae Ruth,
all of Newberry. Those who will
be leaving for Penn, are: Eve
lyn B. Sims, Portia Austin, of
Newberry and Catherine Kin-
ard of Prosperity.
In making the statement Jen
sen said that he was “very
proud of all these girls. They
have made a wonderful contri
bution to the entire area thru
their work in the Neighborhood
Youth Corps. Our loss is cer
tainly the gain of the Job
Corps.”
A special farewell program
was held Monday for the young
ladies prior to their departure
for the Job Corps centers.
