stkte’s official party greeting the
Toure entourage at the Raleigh
Durham- Airport. The Elders were
also among Governor Hodges’ din
ner guests.
At North Carolina College Mr.
-Toure said the African continent
has “suffered greatly and long.”
•‘These sufferings" he said “ac-
cuinulated over the years and have
now converted themselves into
moral and spiritual values which
will help to transcend and to make
a better world.” Mr. Toure said
man’s technical achievements have
exceeded his progress in moral
and spiritual values.
Hie Guinea chief of state re
iterated frequently during his N.
C. stay his countryman’s apprecia
tion of the expressions of friend
ship tendered them by their North
Carolina hosts.
“The longer our friendship con
tinues” Mr. Toure said, ‘‘the more
confident we are of the need for
-iirect contact among the various
deople of the world.” He observed
hat modern communication and
transportation have brought the
latioQs of the world closer in a
vvorld community. OAe of the real
factors uniting man is “human
charity” according to Mr. Toure.
■'And it is with a very high con
ception of his rule that man should
ever look with a deep humility in
general.
“No where will he feel a stran
ger because everywhere he goes
he will feel only one responsi
bility, that of doing what he can
to promote peace and friendship.
The difference which divides us
now is the lack of mutual under
standing. Men will want, then,
whatever it may be that life de
mands and power shall die but
the people shall live on. It is only
through the progress of these peo
ple by helping them along their
way that the individual human be
ing has a future across the sea.

desire is to consolidate the foun

two countries.”

\AACP leaders were recently
threatened with jail sentences for
fitting in the waiting room.
Marshall, who is director-coun-
-sel of the-NAACP Logoi Defense
and Educational Fund, Inc., said
the case against the airport au
thorities originated on November
7, 1958, when a Negro air force
public relations man, Richard Hen
ry, was not permitted to sit in the
white waiting room at the Greea-
ville airport while waiting for a
flight to Detroit.
Henry was returning to head
quarters after having covered an
extensive air force maneuver near
Greenville.
In mid-September of this year
District Judge George Bell Tim
merman ruled against Henry. The-
ease then appeared to the Fourth
Circuit Court of Appeals on Sep
tember 24 by NAACJ* Legal De
fense Fund attorneys. It is now
awaiting hearing.
Marshall, in reply to questions
regarding possible legal action
that might be taken by Jackie
Robinson, revealed that the issues
in the Henry case are essentially
Che same as in Robinson’s situa
tion.

Program Climaxes "United States"
Rally at Rocky Mount Church
ROCKY MOUNT — Durham ed-
Itor-publisher Louis E. Austin,
prominent Methodist layman and
natinoally-known -civil rights ad
vocate, was guest speaker for the
Baptist laymen of the St. James
Baptist Church, Itev. Wm. L. Ma
son, minister, Sunday night.
The program climaxed a day
long Men’s Day program by the
men of the church which saw a
total of $963 raised from what
was called a “itnited States rally”.
Topping the list of state, “gover
nors” was Deacon Jarvi.s Nelson
who Was ‘elected’ president by
virtue of having raised the highest
amount - 98.52. Henry Brown won
the vice president’s post with $C3.
William Weaver won the secretary
of state's position with $31; and
J. T. Bailey won the attorney-
generalship with $50.
Editor Austin discussed briefly
three topics which his audience
agreed would go a long ways in
reshaping the destiny of all
Americans, particularly those of
the colored race.
Austin urged Negroes to “Re
discover Old Frontiers” wherein
Job opportunities of a half-cen
tury ago have been lost to the
race group through default and
lack cooperation at a time when
colored people had a virtual mon
opoly on them.
This, he said, can be remedied
thru increased training for th
crafts so as to reclaim some of
these frontiers. (Austin has been
a frequent advocate of deemphas
izing the channelling of students
into the teaching profession which
IS greatly overcrowed).
As did God of Moses when sty
mied in the wilderness, Austin
asl«ed his audience: “What is that
in thine hand?” He referred to
the ballot; and warned Christians
that they were derelict in their
Christian duty if they failed to
exercise the use of the ballot when .
they knew corrupt persons were
seeking public offlye.
He warned that “You can pi'ay
until your knees , get sore, but un
less you get up and go to work to
iielp elect the proper public offi
cials to office you will never get
your human rights apd better liv
ing conditions.” ’
