Pastor of La­ fayette Church of God, Brooklyn testified thus: “The late Chief Execu* ive, Y oath's 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. Ix)st A Maw- “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.” Allied Dems Host Sherard And Jim Roe Allied ' Democrats held its monthly membership meeting ear­ ly last month.

They will be remembered, at least by the missionary Society of Abyssinian Baptist Church, 132 W. 138th St., which holds a recital Thursday evening of this week to raise money to supply Christmas baskets to the i needy at Yuletide.

One Year Gone The Rev. O. D. Dempsey marks his first anniversary at Upper i Park Avenue Baptist Church, Park Ave. and 125th St., on Dec. 15. Five days later, on Dec. 20, the church will have its annual fellowship supper at the church. At Rites Bishop Melvin L. Jones of Mt. Zion Holy Tabernaffo, a church of the Apostolic denomination, said he was the only Negro clergyman who took part in the Washington rites for the late President. Kennedy Memorial The works and deeds of the faithful living should serve as the most eloquent memorials to the faithful departed they honor, but since suggestions of tangible and inanimate memor- ! ials to the late John F. Kennedy ; are being made we, too, should i like to make a small one. Why not change the present i Lenox Terrace Place (stretching from 134th to 135th Streets, -be­ tween Lenox and Fifth Ave- nes) to John F. Kennedy Place, since it’s near the Lt. Joseph P. Kennedy Memorial Commun­ ity Center? Chanukah, the Jewish festival of lights, will be observed Sun­ day at morning worship rites at The Community Church, 40 G. 35th St. The church Is a non-sectarian, nondenominational parish which was founded in the belief that all the great religions preach the same thing—the oneness of God and the brotherhood of man.

AMSTERDAM NEWS, Sat., Dec. 14, 1963 • S3 Prayer Of The Week Clergy Discusses Muslims —AVho is to blame for the growth of the Black Muslims and Mini- 1 ‘ ster Malcolm X? The hypothetical question was 1 explored Monday by Negro : clergymen of the Intdrdeuumtna- 1 tional Ministers Meeting of 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 i 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 out blame for their inadvertent assistance in aiding the growth of the Black Muslim organiza­ tion, the Rev. Albert Hammond o I Metropolitan Community Methodist Church suggested. the King of kings and the Lord of lords. Amen.
