Says The Fight^ For Commissioner New Jersey Editor Shall Keep Up THg CAKOLlliA TIMES SATUHPAY MAY M. 1»S7 NEWARK, N. -^(CslTin Si«rvice)—Colored citi*eB* here »r« not ^ downhearted at the FPfond def|(«t of Roger Yan- eey* for City CommlMtonf/. fSrd B. Clark, editor of the New Jev^ «ey Guardian, 129 W, Market St., In a leading editorial last week 7iea«kd "We Shall Keep Up The FiS'ht," said: A. ■ "Roger M. Yancey goe* 3«wn to Utfeat again for City Comnds- f-ioner, a repetition of four yca« iij:o and his defeat is largely our ^t>»n fault because we, a« a race, -are^l«€kin« in int^reat in aur own, yet we wer* interested in, and voted for the five succesaful can didates wlio will enjoy the fat of the land for the next four /earJ ■while we ait idly iy lamenting the lost opportunity to do aomehting t:at would reflect credit upoji a ra4e. ‘‘^Yancey made a good ahowing Biid could have been one of *he victors in last Tuesday’s election had' Mi« own race rallied to his fupport instead of some membeiii unrf even ministers too, our sup posed leaders, knocking him. This writer sounds the alarm right now by saying, we will never elect Yancey or any other race man to the office of City Commissioner the office of City Commissioner unless we stop and think and then do the thing that was- taught vs by tli> late Uoolici- T. Washing ton, ‘Pull together’. But this kind of teaching was in the day wHen we did not hove so mach of wat we boast of today—inttUi- gtnce, 5'et we were more radii minded- in those days than we are now. And, this remind* the writer of tHi‘ fact that we have grown most too intelligent . f^r the good of the intelligence has had a tendency to sway us from £he old land mark. ^ ' "It is the ambition of this writ, raee man in City Hall as a Commissioner and we really expect to move along this, line with our influence and money, such as we hav^, in our humble effort to get our people to ski tkfe real necessity of sending'one of our own to City Hall four yrs. from now. “During, the next four years, we vow to keep up the fight for a City Commissioner. But it takes time, effort and money, all of w5ilch every member of the race shbuld be willing to give to such a cause. As we bolieve tfie pur pose con be accomplished if our plans for am are well founded, therefore, let us all grasp this idea and let it grow (bigger in our minds until the tfme comes to act and then act wisely.” ■ WINS SCHOLARSHIP MISS CAROLEASE FAULK NER, Livingstone College Senior^ who was awarded the State Scho larship at the Annual North Caro lina Dramatic Festival held in Winston-Salem recently.
