THURMAN SPEAKS (Continued from page 1) held at First Presbyterian Church, S. W. 12th Ave. and Alder St. Dr. Thurman spoke at the even– ing session. His subject was "Let us care enough to act," following which there was a question period in which pertinent questions on the best action to take was discussed. The conferences are to be follow– ed by pre-Lenten services in Pres– byterian churches all over the na– tion. Dr. Thurman, co-pastor of the Fellowsh~p Church of San Francis– co, one of many projects seeking to give an experience in interracial understanding not found in other segregated churches, was one of a team of three Presbyterian leaders to visit Portland on Wednesday, December 6. He is on leave from Howard University where he has distinguished himself as one of the leading sociologists of the United States. The occasion for the meet– ing which is one of sixty held in cities through the United St~tes was W:orld Order Day for Presby– terians in Portland. In describing the church of which he is co-pastor, Dr. Thurman stated that "any so– cial expression of this kind is sub– ject to all of the possibilities of liquidation." The • church is not making a point of interracialism, but as he stated it "for-instances". There are three problems it must face: Sunday School 10 A. M. Morning Worship 11 A. M. Evening Worship, 8 P.
