Bis~op Gets NCCJ Award For Service (Continuedfrompage 1) Directors, who noted the " impact" His Excellency bas made on the community since ',is assigllment to San DiegC' -,nly six years ago. Refers To Bible In accepting the award Bishop Furey referred to passages in both the Old and New Testaments to show that the admonition to all people to love one another as brothers comes from the God of a ll regardless of creed, race or nationality. He also pointed out that his efforts toward better religious and racial understanding would be fruitless without the cooperation of his fellow clergy. He particularly singled out F_ather I. Brent Eagen, diocesan chancellor, who is 1969 chairman of the monthly clergy dialogues being held with NCCJ participation at the University of San Diego, and Father John R. Portman, chairman of the · Diocesan Ecumenical Com- mission. Father Eagen delivered the benediction at the end of the dinner. The invocation was given by Rev. George W. Smith, pastor of Golden Hills Presbyterian Church a predominantly N~gro congregation. Rabbi Joel S. Goor of Temple Beth Israel, who lectures at the USD and is prominent in in terreligious affairs, gave the meditation. Vital To Nation In his address Dr. Hyatt told the guests that "we're goi ng through a racial revolution today and the Stokeley Car- michaels and Rap Browns a nd George Wallaces have made headlines and the NCCJ has not. But we're doing a quiet ef- fective job that's a bsol~tely vital to the future of this country. "We don't march, we don't demonstrate, we don't lobby - we concentrate on education for better human relations. And I don't think there's any other organization in this country that has done mor e in the past 40 years - or is doing more righ t now - through its work with you_th , . with police, with business a nd la_bor leaders, with clergy a nd with pa rents and tea~hers - . to strengthen our ~at10na) ~ruty, to bring a bout mterrehg10us a nd interracial understanding and, finally to make real that pledge of allegiance that we a ll subscribe to of_ :one na!ion under God, ~nd1y1s1ble, with liberty and Justice for all.' "'_I'haf's what the NCCJ is in business for-to make r eal that pledge - a nd it's the most important business in America today ." Mr. Andrews' citation read in ~a~'t, '.'for . his generous par- ticipation m many charitable ~nd cultur al activities, most 1mportan~ of which has been his leadership of the National Alliance of Busi nessmen which has put San Diego in the forefro~t ?f American cities pr omoting Job opportunities for the hard core unemployed."
