Back From

Under terms of the convey

Back to his pulpit after a heart
attack and three months illness,
Rev. Henri M. Deas, pastor of
Brooklyn's Newman Memorial
Methodist Church, praised Bed
ford Stuyvesant ministers for
their conduct and "indigenous,
indispensable leadership in the
racial fight including the Down-

He said "it was because of their
undivided unity and daring ctxir-
age that new light has been
thrown upon the depths of oppo

his economic and social struggle.”
Brooklyn, Rev. Deas declared,
has led the way in the "battle to
make both big business and big
labor'understand that the Negro's
ostracism from jobs due to dis
crimination lies at the very heart
of the problem of the survival of
the economic life of the nation.”
