About Pres. Kennedy
In a sermon on the assassina

testified thus:

Letter To
Minister
Grant Ricky fletcher, 16, a
student at Walt Whitman JHS,
wrote this in memoriam on “My
Friend the President” and sent
it to his pastor Rev. Henri M.
Deas of Newman Memorial Meth
odist Church, Brooklyn.
“We, the youth of America,
are deeply sorry for what hap
pened to our President of the
United States. He was a man
that most people loved. He was
a person that people trusted. To
me the President seemed like a
true friend.
“The people of the United
States, Mr. Kennedy, was a like
able young man. He always car
ed for others. He was our thirty-
fifth President and departed this
life »t two o'clock November
twenty-second in the year nine
teen hundred and sixty-three.

“The epople of the Uhl ted
States of America have lost a
man that we will always remem
ber.
John F. Kennedy, has proven
a good man. He has en-
himself to millions in
deared
America and to millions the
world over as a lover of Justice
and fair play for ah men regard
less of race, color or creed.'*
Dwelling a little on the inscrut
able ways of God, the pastor ask
ed, “Where was God when thia
wickedness was being planned
and executed"
“Right on His eternal throne
looking on and permitting it for
a wise purpose”, the minister re
plied.” God was at the same
place when His only begotten son,
Jesus, was dying at the hands
of wicked men, for it was only
by His vicarious death that God
could redeem, could bring back
to Himself a lost world.”
Rev Marshall suggested that
God may have permitted the as
sassination" for the purpose of
seeking to bring back America
to himself.”
“I believe that God U saying
to America through thia tragedy,
Call a halt to your apostasy and
turn and seek my face.* . . .
America, the assassination of
our beloved president is a meo-
sage from God to. us, let us heed
it.”

explored Monday by Negro :
clergymen of the Intdrdeuumtna- 1

Greater New York and Vicinity '
at the Harlem YMCA, 180 W. 1
135th St., who arrived at differ- i
ent, interesting but by no means 1

definite conclusions.
Newspapers, white and Negro,
are responsible for the em
ergence of the Black Muslims
and the attention they and their i
now suspended East Coast
leader Malcom X are getting, I
declared the Rev, Dr. C. Asa-
pansa-Jbhnson, president of the
Interdenominational Ministers.
Blames Society
Bishop Jafnes I. Clark
thought differently. He said “the
(discriminatory) pattern of the
(American) society” is to blame
because it has forced the Negro
to try to “identify himself” and
he has gone from one ism to
another “trying to be everything
but a Negro.”
The Negro clergy Isn’t with
