Robinson on Race

Last month, Pope Paul VI .was said to have "accepted

and agreed" to an appeal to all churches to provide leadership in a "new moral crusade to remove prejudice from the
hearts of tho people."
The appeal was made by Whitney M. Young Jr., executive
director of the National Association for the Advancement of
Colored People, who said the Pontiff encouraged all efforts
to secure the full benefits of modern society for all its members. without discrimination.
It seems to me that local ministers of all faiths can follow along the same path and crusade to change people's attitudes.
The problem churches face is not an easy one because
of the prejudices which often lie in sectors of the congregation. For instance, two Protestant clergymen in Pennsylvania
recently were forced to leave their churches for other assignments because they were too active in the civil rights
movement. One was subject to harassment which included
threatening phone calls and attempts to force his car off the
road. The other was told he should have preached more
iermons on "peace of mind."
In too many churches throughout the South, we find a
refusal to face moral crises of our national life. Many have
actively aided segregationists by allowing segregated schools
to be set up in church buildings for the purpose of frustrating public school integration.

Local Efforts Toward Change

In Battle Creek the Catholic church, through the Michigan Catholic Conference, and the Methodist church, through
the Methodist Michigan Conference, Board of Missions, have
completed studies of the problems and social inadequacies of
minority group citizens. At the conclusion of both studies,
recommendations were made r e g a r d i n g the churches'
responsibility for facilitating change within the community.
Our enlightened religious leaders have a great task to
perform because "changing the hearts of men" is not easy,
but it is a task for which our churches are eminently suited.

Most Support Ideals

Fortunately, the mainstream of American religious life is
fully committed to these ideals. Ministers of all faiths have
spoken out for social justice and have taken the lead in
fighting for equal rights.
The General Assembly of the United Presbyterian Church,
representing more than 3 million people, last spring, overwhelmingly approved a creedal statement affirming its obligation to work for social justice.
Last week the Rev. Dr. Eugene Carson Blake, general
secretary of The World Council of Churches, said that "on
the whole, American Protestant churches had been active at
an earlier stage in backing integration, but in recent years
the World Council had shifted its emphasis to the antipoverty campaign." He added that "we must pick up the integration campaign again."
, The National Conference of Bishops recently issued a pastoral statement on race relations and poverty which called
for "changing the hearts of men" by instilling a "true
sense of neighborliness, based upon a religiously inspired
connection that all men are equal before God and that all
should be welcomed in our midst."

LINES, LINES EVERYWHERE The lines on

Letterle Street in Louisville would confuse any motorist but they present no problem to 9-year-old Greg
Patton. He found them amusing and a good place to
skip along, trying not to weave from side to side. The
city uses this dead-end street to test its machine that
paints lines on the highways.
