L aidered the silver-tongued orator of
;?the?bench.?In connection with that. he
is rated as one of the best preach- _
ers in America. I have listened to
many addresses delivered by him anil
each was pronounced a masterpiece.
His wonderful sermon before the Bi- ;
_ HhopR* Council at - Birmingham. Ala- ;
bama, prior to the General Conferl
erice, was the talk of the connection.
fAside from?being a real gem?o&thought
and Spiritual inspiration,' it
^ : had in it the only solution to make
greater and grander the A, M.
Church in this country and Africa.
Many of the needy reforms that came
to our church as the result of the last
General Conference grew out of, that
sermon delivered by our good Bishop
?Ransom. I have been identified with every
General Conference since 1910
and I know all of the bishops and am
known to meat of them. And?bcliovc..
me, our state needs to congratulate
herself in receiving .this gifted orator
v and preacher as our bishop and great
leader., ,\ye, ar&j,blessed with such a
?man. ?~? ? ?
Must Doctor On Assessments
I have supported every bishop thaT
has ever presided over , me and have
?never- fought a single one. I mean

l-v ovanu ujr uiouup ivaiiouiu muu ivi
low where he leads. But there is one
thing" ram going to do, and that is.
I am going to tell him personally of
with a delegation, that these high assessments
on our churches have al
most paralyzed them in this state.
And unless something is done to re
ducc llieWl Wg just as well cloi.u u| :
shop, and especially in the rural dis
tricts. -Np one is getting converted
in our churches and scarcely anybody "
oi note connecting themselves with
them. The people in many places in
the country are leaving our churches
givng as their-, reasons "the assess
ywontg ary tnp high " Thy nffipprg aild
"'"Tiiieiubers in some charges flatly?re^ I
fuse to put forth any efforts to raise
' the assessments. The^ say that they
are unreasonable, unmerciful and ungodly.
Ninety per cent .of the cluirches
here have no insurance on them
whatever. Many of them are-rottening
down for want of repairs and the
?people claim that they cannot do anyv
?.f nil fnr tbotr| Wansn of the
heavy assessments. Some 6f~TTtrr-mi=..
nisters are- receiving, comparatively
nothing for support and salary. Sow
have gone to other denominations. We
just as well prepare to arrange ouiv
state's budget so as to cut these assesments
on the charges -or?f-he?pe-u
pie will cut themselves-away from us
' like they are doing. I have no doubt
- but that we will raise quite a handsome
sum for education here next
week under Bishop Ransom, but i1
will be due largely to the sacrifice of
pastors, coupled with their candy clubs
and other projects that will accoust
- --for. it. The rank and file.of the membership
('"haVe not concerned themselves
the least bit about the assessments.
And_these poorly paid pastors
with the few faithfu 1 ones" of their
congregations cannot continue to carry
these heavy burdens without the
full cooperation of the *btire menibership
of the church. Now if 1 am
not telling the \frhole truth as to the
sentiment of These fiSSTC^snrcnts - m
this state let the assessment payers
and not the assessment makers rise
"f ii ri rl hr-nnd mo nf t f>) H n tT a falsehood.
On the other hgnd if the assessment
makers think I am sounding
?a false ?alarm, let them travel the
. state and see how well they can col'!
lect their high assesments. To continue
to heap up obligations on people
who have no jobs and scarcely
~ food to eat is driving, the,m awa.\'
i from us.
Blame Our leaders
'~FronT~five to thtfay dollars from*'
?ftCH minister of oiir poorly paid mi?nintry-in
any_j?ne effort is a yoke that
_ indeed .gauls. This~is~nbtI i/r b e' aftri
buted to our late bishop.;but to our
freely speaking leaders. I remember
his first conference in Morris Brown
church, Charleston, he said that "I
am going to ask my presiding elders.
lina to contribute fifteen dollars on I
educational night and the,'"others pay I
in proportion. When I go to Florida I
I will ask the presiding elders and'
pastors to pay thirty dollars. The mi-1
ni?try there is in better eircmnatanrl
ces than yours here/' But as several
:?of the Florida^ ministers- were in at- tendance
at that conference, "our im-i
pulsive Peters"' thundered "We will j
pay thirty dollars too. We cpp pav |
' as much as Florida." This is how the!
$30.00 came in for this state, which |
has almost delivered some of the ministers
to the sheriff and others to j
__the rag man. It has bereft poor little
children of their Christmas Santa |
?Glausy and"has cHuscd some wives to
pearances.. Everybody is not rich,
nor have all persons good paying positions:
And to my mind this was more
?ef a penalty than a sacrifice It was;
brought upon us by our -own loud]
mouthed leaders, and not our good bi_
shop that has gone .to his reward. Now
L if we are not disposed to '^doctor" on ]
? this "assessment" then those whose
I checks have been returned should take '
care of them. And these tissue paper
" notes should be redeemed. In so do|*
ingr I would be reimbursed of what I
C have out and cannot collect. If we
L would simply: tell the bishops the true!
i^atatus of things in steady or bragging
and buidozlhg Wherr we are as poor as .
r Job's old-gflndorr they would have [
