Declares Religion
Faces Test
East St. Louis, 111., Aug. 19 (A
NP)—Declaring that the trend of
religion today will determine the
destinies of the world tomorrow
and that the fate of humanity will
not be determined by marching
armies but rather by what relig
ion does to the human heart, the
Rev. J. C- Austin of Chicago,
closed an address to the Illinois
State Baptists in executive session
here Tuesday, in which he form
ally announced his espousal of the
candidacy for the presidency of
the National Baptist Convention
which meets in Cleveland in Sep
tember.
“For some years”, declared Rey.
Austin, “I have concerned myself
very studiously with the trends of
the religions of the world. I have
given attention to the great lead
ers and even to the leaders of
cults so as to know thir attitudes
and objectives and programs, and
so seek that something which at
tracts and holds the soul interest
of so many earnest, conscientious
seekers after God.
‘‘I have sat for an hour in the
throne room of Pope Pius with a
Coptic priest as my guide, and
through them have (tried to see the
great objective of the Catholic
church. I have conversed with
Kagawa ,the great mystic of the
East, and with outstanding men1
such as F. W. Brown, ex-president
of the southern Baptists and
George W. Truitt, ex president of
the world’s alliance.
“I have even gone,” Rev. Aus
tin continued, “into the kingdom of
the Rev. M. J. Divine, styled as
‘Father’ and have corresponded

DR- WALKER, BUSINESS
LEAGUE HEAD, HAS EN
VIABLE AND BUSY CAREER
Mempnis, Aug.
23 (by Marion
Simpkins for A
NP)—Within the
span of 40 years
only four men
have served as
president of the
National Negro
Business League.
The first two,
Booker T. Wash
Dr. Walker
ington, sage of Tuskegee and his
distinguished successor, Robert R.
Moton, imparted to the league the
lustre and prestige of their pre
eminent career in the field of ed
ucation. The later two, Clinton C
Spaulding and Dr. Joseph E. Walk
er, have given realism to the ob
jectives of the league through
their outstanding successes in the
field of business.
Few1 Negro organizations have
been more discriminating in its
selection of leaders as the Nation-,
al Negro Business league. From
Washington, founder of the or
ganization, to the present admin
istration under Dr. Walker, the
league’s leadership has represent
ed a fine combination of educat
ional and business saga-city, which
undoubtedly will this month be re
flected in the general theme of the
1941 convention, “Education and
Negro Business.”
The 1941 session will be held in
Memphis, August 27-30.
During the past two years Pres
ident Walker has been a positive
influence in building up and ex
panding the program of the lea
gue. While holding with vener
ation to fundomental principles of
his predecessors, he has not hesi
tated to explore new fields of bus
iness techniques in keeping with
the trends of the day.
Since hig election to the presid
ency of the league at Oklahoma
City, 1939, the National Negro
Business league has made unpre
cedented strides. Dr. Walker was
reelected for a second term in
1940. Further honor came to the
insurance magnate, who is also
founder-president of Universal
Life, 17th largest insurance com
pany in America, when the league
accepted his invitation to hold its
1941 session in the Bluff City, his
home.
The President has organized and
visited Chambers of Commerce in
ever section of America. Last
year he made two visits to Detroit
prior to the session in the motor
city; helped business leaders form
leagues in New Orleans and Kan
sas City; addressed groups in St.
Louis, Richmond, New York City,
and Little Rock and attended the
important meeting held for Negro
leaders by officials of the United
States Chamber of Commerce.
Results of this meeting brought
about closer relationship between
white and colored chambers thru
out the country. One of the guest
speakers in Memphis will be L
P. Dickie, maanger of the South
ern Division of the U. S. Chamber
of Commerce, during the league
convention in this city.
Like his predecessors, Dr. Walk
er, has given unsparingly of time
and money in advancing the lea
gue’s program. Proud of the hon
or accorded him by this disting
uished body, he has endeavored to
meet every responsibility that go
es with it. His administration, a
policy.
“W’th'n the next week ,the Har
lem Division of Fight for Freedom,
Inc., expects tto have more than
100,000 signatures of Negroes giv
ing their full support to the Roose
velt policy against the Axis pow
ers,” White said
mong other achievements, has add
ed 75 new affiliated organizations
to the league, and general activ
ities are at higher pitch than at
any time in its history. Last year
the Natonal Housewives league
was formed. Serving as a stimul
us to the Negro market, the house
wives league places emphasis up
on purchasing power through Ne
gro women as consumers.
President Walker has continued
the policy of his predecessors as
it relates to colleges and educat
ional institutions. He has spoken
at a number of schools, including
commencement address at his alma
mater, Alcorn, Alcorn, Miss.; and
Lane. Education in relation to
business has been stressed re
peatedly as he appears before col
lege and high school groups.
A native of Mississippi, Presi
dent Walker has achieved an en
viable career in the heart of his
native delta. He has been almost
most without error in business in
vestments. His leadership of Un
iversal Life during the worst perj
iod of the depression has attested
to the soundness of his business
judgement under trying condit
ions. A fortnight ago, President,
Walker purchased on behalf of his
insurance company $0,000 worth
of National Defense bonds....the
maximum that can be bought in a
single year ‘ because of the comp
any’s patriotism and soundness of
investment.V Moreover, he sent
out numerous letters urging other'
Negro organizations to ‘‘invest in
democracy.
“We are ready to give the lea
gue delegates and visitors the best
convention they’ve ever had,”
President Walker told this corres
pondent after a checkup on comm
ittee activities.” “A^d you cjui
add that the mayor and all other
officials will do all possible to
extend courtesy to our delegat
ion.”
