(Mosher photo) Move Toward Interracial Church Said To Be Meeting Some Sincere Opposition By HERMAN ALLEN (For Georgo Cornell) WASHINGTON I While most of the larger Protestant dcnomina tions have accepted the principle of racial integration in public schools, a distinguished religious news editor finds that "the move toward an interracial church, par ticularly at the congregational level, ha sturdy, sincere opposi tion." "One aspect of the segregation debate is heartening, however." says Caspar Nannes of the Wash ington Evening Star. "There appears a conscious ef fort in church circles to probe the issue without impugning unworthy motives. . . . Speakers have been concentrating their fire on the sub ject rather than their opponents. Considering the tinder-box nature of the debate, this is no mean achievement." Dr. Nannes completed a survey of the church integration situation this summer. He noted that the Methodist Church, the American (Northern) Baptist Convention, the Presbyterian Church, U. S. (South ern), and the Episcopal Church, among others, have taken stands in favor of church desegregation. Several large denominations have refused to schedule national meet ings in cities which cannot guar antee that hotels, restaurants and the like will be open to all dele gates regardless of race. The Episcopalians, who had previously scheduled their triennial (every third year) general convention for Houston, Tex., this tall, moven u f to Honolulu when Houston could not make such a guarantee. I Statement of principle at the top ! level, however, is not the same as action at the congregational level, and few if any Protestant denominations have top level au thority to impose such a principle as desegregation on local churches. A study of 405 churches by the National Council of Churches shows that only 2.7 per cent of their total 2.17,000 members are non-white. However, only 26 per sons have left their churches be cause non-whites were admitted, the survey indicated. "Church leaders advocating in tegration have been tormented." Nannes writes, "by the fact other agencies have led the church in an area peculiarly its own." Nannes points out that when these leaders quote Scripture "For ye are all one in Jesus Christ," for example opponents may counter with "and He shall separate them one from another Tbwyotifcwuj The answers to everyday insurance problems . t By William S.

The Washington City Presbytery (Northern Presbyterian) took a pro-integration stand this summer in a report calling on "all our churches ... to complete desegre gation throughout the church and throughout the communities in which our churches work and serve." A few weeks later the Rev. E. Len Weston, of Avondale, Md.. Baptist Church expressed a differ ing view: "In the armed forces, in public work, in transportation and in similar things integration is neces sary and feasible." he said. "In close social relationship such asj schools, churches, social cTubs. the practical solution would be segre- ganun. ... x icui uicie is muiiiiiik unchristian or condescending unAmerican about it." Russian Farmers Begin Tour Of Canadian Farms MONTREAL irft-Nine Russian farm representatives began a tour ot eastern yuenec today auer a month-long, 32-000 mile-long look at the United States. The Soviet visitors received a mixed greeting on their arrival yesterday. Memhers of the Soviet Canadian Friendship Society ap plauded and threw kisses when their plane landed at nearby Dor val Airport. Ukranian organ izations distributed leaflets charging the Communists with en slaving 100 million Europeans and shouted against their visit. Three members of the. 12-man party making up the trip from the Soviet Union remained in the United States. The nine who came here will visit Quebec, Ontario and the wheat-growing plains of Manitoba and Saskatchewan. They will wind up their trip in Ottawa Sept. . More than 16,500,000 western ers attended state, county and dis trict fairs last year. Here are better nails in a better container Do a better job with U S S American Nails.

He recently returned from a confer ence at Spokane, Wash., jf direc tors and secretary - treasurers of me jo rcA s in Idaho, Montana, Oregon and Washington. A committee of three members of the federal boa-rd were present at the Spokane conference as well officers and directors of the Production Credit Corporation of Spokane and the Federal Inter mediate Credit Bank of Snokane. Patten said. Federal board mem bers present were Earl H. Brock man, Caldwell, Idaho: Frank W. Peck. St. Pauli Minn., and L. V. Hitter, Marked Tree, Ark. Also attending the Spokane ses sion were K. B. Tootell, goxernor, and Harold A. Miles. cteDulv gov ernor and director of short - term credit service. Farm Credit Ad ministration, Washington, D.C. Representatives of the produc tion credit associations in the four states also discussed with the board possible ways for farmers to eventually take over ownership irom ine government of the pro duction credit corporation and the intermediate credit bank. Current ly 24 of the 30 PCA's in the Soo- kane farm credit district are com pletely farmer - owned and the others are nearing that point. Pat ten .explained. About 12.000 of the 20.000 PCA farm and ranch members repres ented at the Spokane conference borrow a total of about S115.000.- 000 a year from their production credit associations to finance their farm operating expenses and such capital investments as tho purchase of farm machinery and livestock, according to Patten. The policies of the local associ ations are determined bv farmer. directors elected by their fellow members. Farmers now have over $7,000000'. invested in the caDital slock of these 30 association.;. Although these local credit co operatives are now largely farm er-owned, the Production Credit Corporation of Spokane, presently a government - owned organiza tion, supplied the original capital ana continues to supervise the sanations. The local production credit associations, as well as some other financing institution obtain their lending funds from Ihe Federal Intermediate Credit Bank or Spokane bv discounting farmers' notes with the bank. This hank in turn gets its money from investors in the nation's financial centers through the sale of short term bonds known as debentures. Patten said the Spokane con ference participants look to the time when the entire system will be completely owned by its farm ers, stockmen and cooperative users. $10,000 In Bills Found Concealed In Suitcase FLORENCE, Ore. Iff) Sid Nicholson hunted off and on for three years for cash believed to have belonged to a man whose estate he was handling, but finally gave up arid Friday started to burn odds and ends that were left. Just as he was about to toss a battered suitcase on the fire in his backyard, he noticed it had a false bottom. And there he found $10,500 in $100 bills. Two members of the family of Frank L. Kingston, whose money it was, will get the cash, Nichol son said. We sell U-S-S American Nails in popular types and sizes. For every job, get the right nails from our full stock. U.S. Offers Help NEW YORK W Secretary of State Dulles, with President Ei senhower's authority, Friday of fered Israel and the Arab states an American security treaty guar anteeing their frontiers if they will join in making a permanent peace. Dulles spoke ont on Middle East problems in a major policy ad dress prepared for the Council on Foreign Relations. Dulles said the United States would be "willing to help in the search for a solution" to the prob lem of drawing permanent boun daries between Israel and her Arab neighbors. Further, he said there "might be an international loan to enable Israel to pay the compensation Elimination Of Illiteracy In Russia Proves Surprise By JOHN KAMPS WASHINGTON UJ An Idahoan just back from Russia, his native land, said Friday his greatest sur prise was its "virtual elimination of illiteracy." J, M. Kleiner of Nampa, Idaho, who toured Russia with other American agriculturalists, said in an interview that the reduction of illiteracy since he left the country in 1914 impressed htm more than anything else. Kleiner is a distributor of dairy products and a naturalized U. S. citizen. He said illiteracy was com mon in Russia when he left it at the age of 22, "but now it has been virtually eliminated among the people 55 years of age and younger. "This group," he said, "will take a back seat for nobody, both in education and knowledge of world affairs. They may be somewhat biased due to th local press and radio, but at least they indicate a Small Electronic Aircraft Detector Is Developed BALTIMORE Ml The Air Re search and Development Command announced r naay it has developed an electronic aircraft detector we'll call it a buzz bonnet to help spotters put the bee on low living enemy planes. Don't be surprised if vour wife wants one for Easter. 1 he gadget is mounted on one of those tough, plastic hard hats like construction workers wear to protect their noggins. un lop is an antenna which looks like a pee-wee public address sys tem or high fidelity horn. On top of this is a horizontal cylinder, like a coil. A short rod with a knob on the end sticks out in back. The volume control clips to the vicinity of your left lapel. Technicians at the Rome. N. Y.. Air Development Center figured it out for the volunteer (round Ob- server Corps. The GOO has the job o spotting low flying enemy pianos which sneak through Ihe country's radar warning network. The theory is such planes would have their own radar gear going great guns. The little 20 ounce de tectors could pick up these im pulses quicker and more accur ately than you could spot a plane by sight, especially at night or when it's cloudy or foggy. Tho detector comes with ear piece, an over-the-shoulder bag fur tho four-ounce battery, a pulse amplifier, and (get this) a coaxial choke .assembly. The Air Force did not announce any price.

The secretary said he proposed these steps to end the Middle East tension "as a friend of both Is raelis and Arabs." The American offer, he said, comes as a result of "deep and anxious thought" over the situa tion there. In making known the American willingness to sign a formal treaty, Dulles said: "President Eisenhower has au thorized me to say that given a solution of the other related prob lems, he would recommend that the United States join in formal treaty engagements to prevent or thwart any effort by either side to strong interest in international events. Kleiner, born in 1892 at Stolnoye, Chernigow, Russia, is a graduate of the University of Kiev. He visit ed Russia in 1932 and again in 1935. Because he speaks Russian, Kleiner pinch hit occasionally for interpreters who accompanied the Americans. The group found the people "sur prisingly friendly, interested, very curious and glad to see us, Klein er said. "Everywhere, they asked us to bring back words against war." Kleiner got the impression that Russians are about as well off, economically, as they were before World War 1, although there is a shortage of consumer goods but they don't seem to be as happy be cause of bureaucratic controls. Asked if the trip made him happy that he's an American citi zen and whether Russian potatoes compare favorably with the fam ous Idaho Russets, Kleiner replied: "I'm tickled not just happy and the Russets arc far superior in quality, size and yield." Dairymen, too, arc more than enthusiastic abovt Tunberib barns. They like the husky. Ion g-U$ ting construction that eliminates costly maintenance and the complete absence of posts and supports.
