Progressive National Baptist Registers GrowthCINCINNATI Followers of

the Progressive National Bap-

tist Convention, Inc., enjoyed

a week of cheer and challengeas they convened at the Nether-land Hilton Hotel, with alltheir activities under one roof.The conveniences and accomo-dations were so pleasant thatmessengers stayed longer andleft reluctantly. Many messeng-ers expressed the opinion thathospitality was at its best inCincinnati. A royal welcomewas extended by everyone fromthe Mayor to the man in thestreet. Some 3,000 messengersand visitors saw the birthplaceof the Convention, historic ZionBaptist Church and met herpastor Dr. L. V. Booth who con-

vened the first meeting in 1961.The principle of tenure was

honored with enthusiasmthroughout the Convention.Perhaps the most touchingscene was the beautiful Recog-

nition Service given for Mrs.Uvee Mdodana-Arbouin, wholed the Women's Auxiliary. Anentire afternoon was devotedto a colorful re-cap of her ad-ministration. She will be re-membered not only as 'the firstpresident of the Women but

one of the greatest. She wassucceeded by Mrs. MinnieBruce, outstanding churchwom-

ian in Chicago and the Mid-West. Mrs. Arbouin was electedPromotional Secretary of theWomen's Auxiliary. She be-comes a "first" in this post.

Dr. Gardner C. Taylor, Presi-dent of the Parent Body capti-vated the Convention in one ofthe most brilliant addressesever delilvered before the body.Two days later, messengerswere begging for a copy to take ]home with them. little didthey know that much this great

speaker had said was nevertransmitted to paper. From thePresident to the humblestmember, Progressive Baptistsbelieve themselves to be the"last bright hope of NegroBaptists." They take their mis-sion seriously at home andabroad.

There was a brilliant array

of visitors. The surprise visitof Dr Martin Luther King, Jr.,on Friday afternoon moved theconvention. His message on TheChristian Perspective of theWar in Vietnam was well re-

ceived.t I was followed by a

resolution of endorsement. Dr.

AJC PresidentUrges HousingBill Passage

NEW YORK Morris B.Abram, president of thecan Jewish Committee, hasurged passage of the Fair Hous-ing Bill in a statement submit-ted to the Subcommittee onHousing and Urban Affairs ofthe Senate Banking and Cur-rency Committee, which is con-sidering the legislation.

"Housing discrimination isnot merely a problem unto it-self," Mr. Abram said. "It is in-extricably woven into the entirefabric of minority-group oppres-sion in America, with a myriadof seriousconsequences. If, forexample, a qualified Negro isunable to accept a proferredjob because his color bars himfrom living within a reasonabletraveling distance of the pros-pective job location, then as a

practical matter his job oppor-tunity is cancelled. When Negro

families are precluded fromliving anywhere except in areaswhich are already overwhelm-ingly Negro, our proclaimedgoal of desegregating predomi-nantly Negro public schools be-comes a mockery."

Mr Abram stated that ahousing law could help pre-vent such disturbances in theghettos as have recently oc-curred.

"Since it has been readily ob-servable that Negroes residingin predominantly white neigh-borhoods do not riot," he said,"it may be supposed that thesecalamities could be averted ifa fair measure of residentialintegration could be achieved,or at least effectively promot-

ed, through open-housing legis-i lation."? Founded in 1906, the Ameri-

can Jewish Committee is thepioneer human relations agencyin this country. It combats bigo-try, protects the civil and reli-gious rights of Jews and ad-vances the cause of humanrights for all.
