Pittsburgh, July 3, 1931?Bishop E. D. W. Jones.,, of the. A. M E. Zion Church, Washington, D. C., las-V night in a public address declared that the Negro race in this country was ".as tar removed from the Scopes trial in Tennessee and the religious' and educational enactments <. of legislatures against evolution and discoveries of science as the enligntened Englishman ia-'. far removed from the cave man." The statement occured in "the course of Bishop Jones' addresfr 'before the 22nd Annual- Conference of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People in session here through Sunday, ? )y 5. Bishop Jones also assailed the whi-te mon'o . victio nif if nf in inotinn nvo l udice, hate, cold indifferent brotherhood, war, slaughter and armed mtsalonary invasion*7 as being not ftTF" Christianity of the Negro. . "Heaven and a desire to get there," he declared, "grew out of our hellish CGYidition from Inhumane tortures we hoped to be relieved from. But now our heaven is in service, duty, fighting for fellowship, manhood, honest courageous citizenship, right acting toward one another, reverence for personality." A diversified leadership, of specialists must be looked for by the Negro in America nuw, continued Bishop Jones, and the Negro must adopt for liia nwn thp standards of efficiency and competency prevailing the world over,. ."We have learned long years ago," he continued, "that any sort of training is inadequate that does not acquaint the student with the human world. Our education must seep thru to the lowest strata of our social life and to the humblest laborer and the occupations of our masses must have honest trained direction." lalmc W ... COLUMBIA, S.
