Dr. Eugene Carson Blake, stated clerk of the United Pres­ byterian Church. *We have a national crisis," Dr. Blake said In a sermon at the Riverside Church, "which may lead to all sorts of violence and even revolution, if we do not now decide to throw our persons and our Influence into changing the segregated pat­ terns of American life. "The Christian church in America does not look much like a Christian church as far as race is concerned ” he con­ tinued. Concrete Action He offered the following "very concrete actions" as steps which would help overcome t h e church's inertia: 1. Write to Senators and Rep­ resentatives urging passage of stronger civil rights legislation and begin to demonstrate. 2. Join civil rights organiza­ tions such as the NAACP and CORE and others. 1 Prayer for the Negro com­ munity and its leaders. 4. Use personal influence at work "to see that jobs are open­ ed to Negroes who are qualified and that your business will train unqualified Negroes the same way you train and upgrade pres 6. Make It possible for any­ body who "has the money" to buy and rent In your own town. "A part of the crisis we face in the church is that Negro Christians have by now largely lost their faith in the sincerity of the professions of white Chris­ tians in the matter of race," he declared. "If we do not act the way we have talked, the Negro com­ munity will turn increasingly from the Christian church to which up until now Negroes have been amazingly loyal."
