12 THE CABOUNIAN WEEK ENDING SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 14, 1959 PNEWS A jB. HAR.REN V l°E W S NAACP’S GOLDEN ERA ROCKY MOUNT—It was on the anniversary of the birth of Abe Lincoln—February .12, 1909—that William E. Walling, Mary White Ovington, Oswald Garrison Villard, W. E. B. Dußois and others gather ed in Miss Ovington's New York apartment and organized the Nat ional Association for the Advance ment of Colored People. Men like James Weldon Johnson, Walter White and others —including Joel E. Spingarn, its first president have passed on to their well-earn ed reward after lives of service to freedom and equality of human be ings of all races. Today, NAACP stand- on the threshold of a golden era of suc cessful negotiating ad litigation which have moved the Negro much farther up the ladder of freedom from, educational, economic, cultur al and political oppression than at the beginning. Within the past few months, yea weeks, we’ve seen the white flag of surrender to law and order go up in the Old Dominion on three battlefields of school desegregation. Even Gov. Lindsay Almond, Jr. has capitulated without having the statesmanship of the South’s great hero—Gen. Robt. E. Lee—who was man enough to admit his defeat. RESPONSIBILITY OF NEGROES Tr. Oxford Sunday, an educator told the writer that the whites were begging the Negroes to go up and vote and they will not do so to any noticeable extent, There is an instant where there appears (o be few obstacles in the way of race voting and they won’t exert them selves to make their strength felt despite their being 52 per cent of the total county population, That is alarming and disgusting! There are many other counties and towns in eastern Tarheel ia where the same condition prevails. Halifax, Edgecombe and Nash Counties are among the group with others of the eastern 'Black Belt*. This column continually pleads with ministers, teachers and social climbers to start night classes in registration, voting and political action to remedy this. South Caro linians are doing just that. So are Virginians. Why not Tarheelians? Baisy Bates said at the Elks meet in Philadelphia: “Perhaos well have to give up a few bridge par ties and some of our ‘social drinks’ (not all) and give the righ 4 l of our people more attention and money in order to get our complete free dom.” The Rev. J. H Costen told his Mt Piscah Presbyterians last Sun day: “Men all over the world are rising up and demanding their God-given right to freedom: and the movement cannot be stopped because it is part of God’s plan.” The young Nebraska minister, Holly Springs BY C. A. BECKWITH f*. T. A. HOLLY SPRINGS The Holly Springs Elementary School Parent- Teacher Assn, will hold its regular meeting at. the school on Tuesday night, February 17, at 7:30 p. m. Following the business session which will be presided over b.y Mr. William Betts, president, a discussion, '-How Y o ungsters Should Spend Their Leisure Time Happily,” will be led by Mrs. An nie Walker, PROGRAM During assembly period on Fri day, February 7, the second grade class presented an original skit en titled “February Days.” The skit portrayed some of the historical happenings during the month of February, A gesture of “Ground Hog’s Day” was given by Rena Lockley. Marilyn Jones presented an original poster for “National Children Dental Health Week,” fol lowed by s representation of the “Boy Scouts” anniversary by Frank Judd and James Adams. Other e ven ts represented were “National Negro History Week, Abraham Lincoln's Birthday, St Valentine's Day and George Washington’s Birthday through songs and stories.

C. who has been in Rocky Mount for three years, noted with regret that “There is far more complacency here regarding the improvement of racial conditions than in any place I know.” He was preaching on "God’s Message For This Confused Age Os Social Revolution.” His was a Race Relations sermon. The Rev. George W, Dudley spoke In a similar vein to his Mt. Xi o n Baptist congregation • and urged their support of the NAACP and other freedom movements, “WHAT’S WRONG WITH ROCKY MOUNT?” It has been more than thirty years since editor Louis Austin wrote his searching editorial in the Carolina Times asking: “What’s Wrong With Rocky Mount”” The answer has been found but the so lution has not been produced. Our voting record is very low. Our support of the NAACP has dwindled over the past ten years until it is very low, despite the ef forts of two or three ardent work ers. Sunday a Founders Day meeting was announced in TEN CHURCH ES with at least three of the par tors emphasizing the no d of its support. Result: there were only about twenty people in attendance. But we MUST keep up the fight for the rights of all of us. If the tom ministers (and the others not di rectly contacted) would, join wholeheartedly into this fight to arouse the people to their civic re sponsibility, our folk would stand in line to register and vote and join the NAACP—just as they do to get into a movie or a dunce. C»rtalnly. Roy Wilkins is RIGHT when he told Chet Huntley and editor Waring in Charleston: "Wo CANNOT and WILL NOT give up this fight for education;.i equality and economic opportunity for all Americans!” God give u.? more such men and women like Wilkins Mar shal! and Daisy Fries”" AtM may we be little ones to follow on in the woke as they plow the wave?
