Frank Lever. We have this conviction because Russia holds the respect of Hen- Hitle and his cohorts; we believe tha' our people should support th< Finns because, as was expresso_ hy President S R. Ili-iginu of-^Ah" len, we are "moved by a profoun , sympathy for these..iunh_ttletL and Tieroic people, whose history is f symbolic of the highest in-Chris tian civilization".

Dr. Miles Of all the aspirants for episco val honors next May Dr. - T. J Miles appears to be leading am s election is conceded on the first hallot.. The?Bishops?themelves'say his type is needed anong them. The State is ofTcrng him for reasons we are pubsiring next week in the Church >apers. From Bishop Daniel A nayne to " David II. Sims, this 3tnte has been giving the Church classical men and college nresilents for bishops and they have cade good that high' calling Th-se living are among our bos' | reaoherS on the bench.. We arc | ->w putting forth a college ma) | ho has specialized in soul saving nd athering members in our I 'htirch. Everybody says Dt I 'Tiles' election means hundreds of embers added to ,tbe A. M. E Connection and that's what w e ant. We have enough denomina"fional schoo's, if not too many C1y today is a million members, and in Dr. Miles, South Ca-rna is furm'shing a man who will "ut in his share of that number. An Evil Sentiment When" we arrived in Atlanta we ere met with a faNe propagar. -ift-t4rat -the -Sta-te endoraemerrt -ieo standard bearer was a huge >ko and meant nothing. We realized at once that this was the irk of an enemy or enemies, nd hence we overtook the false umor, and put it to death. Such circulation had a damaging ef^ 'ect upon all of our endorsed can'ic'.ates, and was a serious reflecon upon our delegation to the Jcneral Conference. For if oui ndorsement of standard bearer neant nothing; then that of Dr. P Spears, for the Young Peon's department means nothing, ["he same would be true as to Dip ' 1. A Adams and L. H. Hemingway for re-election to their present posts. Then it means that ur endorsement of. Connectional andidate means nothing, and hat Mr. George H. Hampton, the nly aspirant who can make mater the Book Concern need not expect anything from us. It tears further that South Caroina's endorsements of future can ' dales will meat* nothing. Permit me to say that as delegates ve are intelligent enough to know who we want and what we want to do. Enough said for the present.
