When tried, this could be a

This group calls their stamps
“Blue Chip.” For a period of
three years they kept them out
of the huge Los Angeles mar-
ket, apparently hoping this
wculd be influential in keeping
the area stamp free.

However, this strategy did
not work and they put Blue Chip j
stamps into the Los Angeles I
market. They soon became the
dominant trading stamp be- ’
cause they offer the stamp sav- :

I This is significant for today be-
cause the Christian Church work-
ed for over 300 years before it
became legally permissable to go
to a Christian worship service.
Every so often we read today
about someone being arrested for
attempting to attend a Christian
service.
In Jackson, Mississippi, Miss
Julie Zaugg and a companion
were fined $1,000 and sentenced
to a year in jail for attempting
to attend a Methodist service. The
terrible thing about it all is that
the money to pay their fines came
from national Methodist agencies,
instead of local members of the
church. The Bishop of the Church
in Mississippi was remarkably
silent.
Now, it is the privilege of Mis-
sissippi Methodists or Baptists or
Episcopalians or any other
churchmen to be as exclusive as
they want to. However, if the
Buddhist missionaries succeed in
converting America to a more in-
clusive Faith, and if they succeed
in passing laws outlawing the icaT patient in
Christian faith, there must not Hospital,

religious bigots.
