1 VOL, XV NO. 16 An Open Letter to th< A. M. E. General Con MY FELLOW-STATESMEN: Each day brings us nearer tc the enaaiBg General Conference which meets in Detroit. Mirhitrar May 1, 1940. May I say to yoi that 1 have had before me a copj of an instrument which gives -th< names and addresses of all th? delegates elected throughout th? entire connection. I have studi-ec them carefully, as welT as tin personnel of. my own delegatior from the proud Old Seventh, anc I have found that our delegatioi ?is equal from whatever standpoint you would care to mentior to any- other delegation of anj EpiBcepai unmet in?ore?cnrr -- section; and more thnn that, nm candidates from South Carolina are as good as, and equal to anj in the Connection. Let us no1 leave South Carolina ear-marked J. E. by an inferiority complex. Wher it comes to legislation or electior -_you.-will find that about 350 votet for a choice. South Carolina only has 38 votes, so you see hov dependent we are. South Carolina has tied with Georgia in th? eleAion of bishops, and manj other districts of the Connectior in the election of General Officers and we are asking for others. Our endorsed candidate for th< Bishopric is no amateur; he it widely known throughout tht Connection as a great preacher financier, and staunch Chur?hmar and if we obey the expressed mar dates ot our annual conference* that elected us and endorsee these 'fellow-statesmen we hnv< a glorious opportunity to "brinj home the bacon!" Our first unite* .^onsidejn to*an is: the netm n^. ^QJ Bishop Flipper for another quad rennlum. When it cornea to hon eaty, falrplay, self-sacrificing con petency, he has given South Car olina one among the best admin istrations she has ever had. Lei us maintain a forward look. Ai your state chairman I shall trea all delegates with equal considera tion. There shall not be anj type of discrimination showr whatever. "All up and non< down" iB the battle cry of Soutl Carolina. We have no rebels ii our ranks; there shall be no bolt ing of the party. No one will de cide to "take a walk" on electioi day, and no orre will" try to orga niee another party. We are mor aflw frt /* rrxr nlit tho oy ?'/ J ? ? Kessed will of our annual con rences; if not we are individual ly responsible. We must^ defi nitely challenge the present pen fllon plan, and get one that wil adequately care for superannuat ed preachers, widows and orphan; You will receive every kindnesi and courtesy from your state offi cers.
