LETTER TO EDITOR JONES!

Rev. J. W. Jones, Editor
The Community Citizen
New Albany,, Miss.
Dear Sir:
Please accept my heartiest
congratulations of your excel
lent editorial in your Christmas
issue. It was truly great. I
wish our Modernist Methodist
and Baptists might all read and
accept it.
Will enclose some stamps for
some copies and would also like
two or three of the Dec. 4 issue
in which my previous article ap
peared. The powers of darkness
are closing in and have unlimit
ed financial support and unless
our people waken quickly we will
be under the same dictatorship
that now misrules Russia, Hun
gary and China.
batan hatth come down to us
having great wrath because he
knoweth that his day is short.”
Many deceivers have entered
into the world and are now doing
their greatest evils thru the
apostate churches, as always.
Our own government is honey
combed witlh enemies and the
l'act is well kmown to those in the
seats of power at Washington,
and nothing is done about it.
Our only defense left us is in
Christ Jesus,, the Lord but few
have time among us to even lis
ten to what He has to offer, so
they go on bllindly rushing about
for swiftly depreciating dollars
and gadgets that all too soon
will be swept; away.
The Mental Health racket
planned in London in 1948 is fi
nanced without limit and has
caused laws to be enacted in the
majority of states that any
health or peace officer can ar
rest anyone they see fit and rush
them to an insane asylum with
out a warrant or appearance be
fore any judge.
These vicious laws carry a
non-liability clause protecting
all who take part in such crimes
against their fellow men against
either civil or criminal action.
Millions are being spent to get
these enacted and to poison our
food with chemicals and miner
als.
It has beeo reported that 921
million pounds of these inorgan
ics went into the food and drink
of our people in 1953 while the
Delaney committee in Congress
found that the amount was be
ing increased rapidly.
This is the ancient hermetic
system used on conquered peo
ples by the alchemists in Baby
lon and Egypt in earliest times
lu leimei in<e people suDmissive
to their new masters. All these
chemicals and minerals are in
organic, hence indigestible and
unassimilable.
Surely our* times call for sol
emn assemblies with fasting and
prayer, for bitter repentence and
confession of our sins and fol
lies and failures to fulfill our al
lotted duties as Christians.
Prayer, in deep humility is out
only means of approaching His
throne, yet prayer in its true
sense is not allowed in these
Modernist churches, much less
humidity.
May God look upon this drug
ged, blinded and betrayed peo
ple in mercy and open their eyes
to what is coming upon the
earth.

Soil Still Good After Heavy
Corn Years
Close spacing and high fertili
ty, practices which have boost
ed per-acre corn yields in Mis
sissippi about 50 per cent in
recent years, apparently do not
exploit or deplete soil resources.
Research agronomists have con
tinued to get high yields year
after year in a study of the
longtime effects of these prac
tices. Intensive cropping may
aggravate deficiencies of micro
nutrients on some soils and con
tinued use of acid-forming ni
trogen fertilizers make it neces
sary to add lime periodically.
Boom Year Seen For Mississippi
Jackson—Secretary of State
Heber Ladner predicted that
1959 “is going to be a boom
year in the industrial and busi
ness development of Mississip
pi.”
The state official based his
assertion on fees collected by
his office for issuance of domes
tic corporate charters and in
qualifying foreign corporations
to do business in the state.
Mr. Ladner said during the
past six months that fees total
ing $115,184 have been collect
ed, the largest for a like period
in the history of the state.
“Mississippians, as never be
fore, are beginning to buy into
the future development of our
state by investing their idle dol
lars,” the Secretary of State
said. “In 1946, citizens of this
state received only 10 million
dollars from stock dividends,
whereas for the year 1958 they
will receive from stock divi
dends approximately 30 million
dollars, which is the highest in
crease of any state in the South.
“Good fortune awaits all Mis
sissippians n we win pursue,
with faith, the task before us—
that of converting our great
potential in natural resources
into maximum production. It is
incumbent upon all Mississippi
ans to do whatever is necessary
toward reaching this goal.
“Because of the recent fabu
lous discoveries, there is no
longer any doubt that Missis
sippi is going to become a major
oil and gas producing state, and
our fortune in the development
of the timber industry is unex
celled in the nation,” secretary
of State Ladner said.

Miracle Fiber — Cotton
The number one crop of Mis
sissippi’s farms for more than a
century is still writing history
as a new miracle fiber. We eat
it, wear it, even sleep on It —
yet few people are aware of all
the oddities and contrasts sur
rounding the fabulous fiber:
cotton. New uses are being
found for cotton all the time,
and for the future, chemists
talk about a treatment for cot
ton that will make it wrinkle
nroof — another to prevent it
from soiling — a third to pre
vent it from wearing out. But
in the face of all the new
promises and products, cotton’s
Mggest use today — cloth for
garments and household use —
is the same as it has been put
to for over 5,000 years.
-u
The harder it is to see, the
slower you should drive, advises
the Allstate Safety Crusade.
Reduced speed gives a driver
more reaction time to avoid
hazardous situations that may
arise.
-o
Common sense should show
how important it is to keep
windshield, windows and lights
clean particularly when visibili
ty is poor, the Allstate Safety
Crusade says. A film of dirt
can reduce visibility as much as
40 per cent, wKile at tlie same
time intensify blinding glare
from oncoming lights.
-o
It's to a driver’s advantage
to read between the lines when
he approaches a car stopped at a
crosswalk, says the Allstate
Safety Crusade. Passing is too
risky, because the ^topped car
is a good indication that a
pedestrian is crossing the street
and is hidden from view.

LETTER TO EDITOR JONES

Seattle, Washington
December 25, 1958
Owner-Publisher J. W. Jones
The Community Citizen
Dear Mr. Jones:
Wish you and your family a
pleasant and helpful Christmas
Season and return for every cit
izen our constitutional form of
republic government in the year
1959 A. D.
Thank you for the able edito
rial in December 18, 1958, issue
of The Community Citizen for
survival of your and my race,
heritage of independence and
freedoms bequeathed to us by
Christian men and women who
loved their country more than
social popularity, political office
with power over the lives of oth
ers or even life which they gave
freely that we might have these
blessings which so many citizens
vote for men to destroy as you
point out in your editorial.
October 16th Reverend Glenn
E. Smiley, National Field Secre
tary, Fellowship of Reconcilia
tion, whatever that may be, was
given 40 minutes to relate amus
ing incidents he directed 9 Ne
gro students how to create in
Little Kock Central High School
during the school year of 1957
1958. At close of his brain
washing I asked for permission
to give a talk to same students
in one of our high schools locat
ed in fine residential districts
and the teacher gave me Octo
er 21st. October 17th he called
me and said: “Mr. Baxter, I
hate to do this but I have to. I
have to cancel your permission."
A check disclosed Curriculum
Director of Seattle Public
Schools was the one who had an
intimate interview with Rever
end Smiley at close of his mis
leading talk. Then asked him
why he refused to let me speak
to those students. Without
denying he was the one who re
fused he said he was referring
my request to "Appropriate
Committee”. Then asked him
if he referred Reverend Smiley’s
invitation to speak to the "Ap
propriate Committee”. Without
answering either question and
many more in my letters he
said he was going to refer my
request to the "Heads of Social
Studies” for their decision.
Then asked him if he referred
the Reverend Smiley’s request
to the "Heads of Social Studies
Department”.
Late m November he sent me
refusal to speak without an an
swer to any of my questions.
Then I submitted all the facts
m Reverend Smiley’s brain
washing to a prominent attor
ney and former Dean of Univer
sity of Washington Law School
with a list of 13 history books
used to brainwash students in
the United States, of which
“The Making of Modern Ameri
ca” in that list is being used in
Seattle Public Schools. He has
taken over job of leader of
movement to expose the Rever
end Smiley brainwash and use
of that history text book to
brainwash students against
their country. You can get that
list of history books by writing
to President Merwin K. Hart,
National Economic Council,
Inc., 7501 Empire State Build
ing, New York City 1, New
York, and ask for Council Let
ter No. 442. I have distributed
200 copies but don’t have one
left now. Will let you know
how we come out.
Sincerely your friend,
Charles M. Baxter

Headlights, not parking
lights, should be used during
the hours of dusk and dawn,
says the National Safety Coun
cil. Parking lights mislead
both drivers and pedestrians in
judging distance and speed.
-o
When sewing wash-and-wear
cotton fabrics, adjust correct
stitch and tension on sewing
machine to prevent puckering.
For most fabrics, 12 to 14
stitches to the inch with a fine
needle will work well. Use mer
cerized cotton thread.
