Revenue Sharing Guidelines
Each day it appear that suggest
ed guidelines for the use of revenue
sharing funds must somehow be set
Reports show that many formerly
protested the "so-called big brother
role" of tiie federal government in
setting up guidelines for other areas
are now in a quandry as the Revenue
sharing funds begin to come in.
The matching funds theory of
many communities which often used
physical facilities as its share for
matching appear to no longer be vi
able as revenue sharing takes place.
Some say cities and states now hate
to have to make such awesome din
skms about the wise use of the rev
enue sharing funds.
There appears to be so many needs
in all states, cities and communities
that one begins to wonder what needs
should take priorities. Possibly it
wQl be and hopefully the most press
ing needs for the geratest good of
the most people will somehow arise
from these efforts.
Looking at housing needs, educa
tional crises, unemployment and the
limitation of employment opportuni
ties, recreational, social and health
services pose distinct avenues where
the money could be spent. Along with
these all communities must somehow
come to grips with vital water and
sewer services, streets and paving as
well as attempting to meet the need
ed energy services that wiU be need
ed by the rapidly growing population
of these times.
It is expected that- perhays within
the total arena of "gobbledy gook"
(government bureaucy) will set forth
adequate sanctions, terminations and
needed guidelines in those areas who
may attempt to use revenue sharing
as a means to carry out petty and
shady disbursement of the funds
within the communities.
Here again, eternal vigilance must
must become the watchword of all
who would seek the fulfilment of the
American dream in these times of
arises.
OEO Program Dismantling
The date of April 28 has now been
set as the official closing down of
the OEO programs with a scheduled
phasing out crew to be left to carry
out the total dismantling by end of
June.
Many persons have referred to the
dismantling director as one embark
ing upon the task with apparent
eagerness, speed and great relish. Ac
cording to all reports that certainly
appears to be true.
It does seem that the whole idea
of tearing down these programs and
many others would be that the Ad
ministration is showing its utter con
tempt and disregard really for the
nation's low income, welfare and mi
nortiy groups that have been aided
in great measure by the OEO activi
ties. One must not forget also the
elderly that have contributed so much
to our county are alsd being left out
in and among some of the programs
as welL .
Further, skilled workers are being
emphasized in job placements efforts
of the U. S. Employment Service. It
is pushing the network of federally
financed, state operated employment
services to switch its focus from
training and placing poor and unskill
ed persons to lining up skilled work
ers for employers. With the rapidly
automation of so many, many jobs,
the overall effect is yet to be seen.
It would seem then that again the
nation's poor, minorities and the el
derly have been placed on the chop
ping block while the more affluent,
highly trained and skilled workers
will continue to receive subsidies to
keep them ever in the role f the
"rich getting richer" and the "poor
getting poorer."
Negro Press Week
The Negro press is celebrating its
1415th anniversary this week. In its
announcement of the celebration, the
pfttional Newspaper Publishers
Association said it represents 146 years
of protest against the oppression and
discrimination Negro Americans have
suffered in the Western Hemisphere.
The early civil rights cause was led by
Freedom's Journal which began
publication March 16, 1827 under the
editorship of JOHN B. RU88WURM.
Nothing has happened in America
or elsewhere since the black press
began which makes the publication
and support of Negro newspapers
.qHpecessary. The Negro press has
been in the thick of the battle for civil
rights, and every gain blacks have
made has been due largely to the
support of the Negro press. To win
court decisions or legislation in favor
ef the civil and constitutional rights of
Negroes is just a part of the battle for
justice and equality of opportunity for
black Americans.
The Negro press is a voice crying in
the wilderness. Its message was clear
and demr xp "-hen EDITOR
RUSSWUKM si.n-d Freedom
Journal. The need was so weU un
derstood that FREDERICK
DOUGLESS edited for a time a
newspaper called The North Star. The
.day for Negro freedom was so dark
that an abolitionist newspaper, The
Liberator under WILLIAM LLOYD
GARRISON, warned this nation of the
immoral system of chattel slavery.
. At tins point, perhaps it should be
pointed out that the black press does a
good deal more for the community
than its well-known crusading for
hvmaan rights. It dramatizes the
progress of black people, generally and
individually, with an understanding
and support found nowhere else. It
spreads the good news, as well as the
ted, and it always accents the positive
onhe side of the soul brother.
' She black press has always treated
jthe'social news of black people with
idigaity and respect. Its columns are
Jcrammed with news of births, deaths,
fclub meetings, birthday parties,
personals, church activities, school
hews, community events, civics,
jpolitics, sports and theatre - news
affecting every phase of Negro life,
from the cradle to the grave.
Cllbe black press entertains as it
informs. It is a crusader and an ad-
J a m . I f I t -tl
Of uie gooo wings in me iui au
lUb ttayiekhr
and discrimination, the
press has managed to survive
the wrath of the racists who woulc
destroy it.
The 1954 school desegregatior
decision by the U.S. Supreme Court
followed by the civil rights actsmade
more work for the Negro press anc
civil rights organizations. There if
always the problem of getting civi)
rights laws and acts enforced. The
black press is needed to expose the
unfits with enforcement positions who
are not in sympathy with the law or the
people the law is intended to help.
The black citizen today is facing a
herculean task in the struggle for
rights and equal treatment in our
population. The battle is the same now
as it was when Freedom Journal came
on the scene. This is a stiff battle
against Jim Crow ism, America's
double standard of justice, crooked
politicians and government officials
and the game in many quarters for
money rather than high ethical
standards.
What the Negro press needs is more
support and less free riders. This does
not mean that readers and the general
public should align themselves with the
Negro press blindly and without
constructive criticism. The Negro
press has never had sufficient support,
and it has been used too often to boost
businesses and individuals at a great
sacrifice.
To expect the Negro press to push
the interests of groups and individuals
at the expense of someone else just
won't work. It never did, and it never
wiH.
The black press has earned the
right to have the respect and support -not
only of its readers - but also of
business people, both black and white,
who thrive from the patronage of black
people. Firms that advertise in your
Journal and Guide, for instance,
deserve your patronage and support.
Without the financial support of
business firms through advertising,
this newspaper - nor any other one -simply
could not survive the mounting
ion today. Think about
it.
This is National Negro Newspaper
Week. We do not expect a birthday
party; nor do we look for a lot of
greeting cards. We do, however, ap
preciate ttiis opportunity to thank our
loyal readers for their understanding
and support. And we do ask the public
to general to make it a special point to
patronize the progressive business
ose advertisements a)
the Journal and Guide. They ap
preciate your business and deserve
your support.

To The Editor.
The AP on February 24
gave the facts about a racial
outrage that has been for too
little emphasized. Here are the
facts. A group of some 400
Negro men, poor and unedu
cated, in Macon County, ala.,
who had syphilis were delibera
tely left untreated so that the
Public He alth Service doctor
could study what damage un
treated syphilis does to human
beings. They were deliberately
used as experimental guinea
pigs. And they were even left
untreated after a fairly effec
tive cure for syphilis had been
found. At least 28, and per
haps 107, died as a direct re
sult of untreated syphilis.
The AP story said t hat
physicians testified before a
citizens panel, appointed to in
vestiga te the experiment after
the facts had been disclosed
about a year ago, that the
men treated as human guniea
dMnot know they wer?
nor did they understand the
nature and danger of their dis
ease. The facts are bad enough.
Even worse is the fact that the
American Medical Assn., to the
best of my knowledge, failed
to protest about it. No white
Southerners and very few white
Northerners have protested.
The white attitude seems to be ,
that Negroes are less than hu
man and not entitled to the
medical care human beings
should get.
If there is any doubt in any
thinking person's mind about
the existence of racial discri
mination, this horrible experi
ment on human beings treated
as experimental guinea pigs be
cause they were black should
dispel that doubt. The facts
are an outrage and the nearly
complete la ck of loud protes
ts an even greater outrage,

Is there any connection be
tween the recent outbreak of
"staph" infections and the dis
continuance of hexaclorophene
in hospitals?
Yes. Indications are that the
rash of "staph" diseases which
' have occurred recently are a
result of the cessation of hex
achlorophene use. Staphylococ
cus aureus, a germ present all
around us, thrives particularly
in hospitals,
where it has
developed a n
immunity to
most antibio
tics, such as I
penicillin, etc.
In the 1950's, !
when staph
was on the
rampage, hexa
ch lorophene
was found to
be an effective germ killer. It
has since been used by doc
tors as a germicidal cleanser,
and in nurseries to!- protect
newborns who had little, if
any, resistance to most germs
and viruses. Last (all. when
the French reported deaths
and brain damage to .infants
exposed to high doses of hex ;i
It
ljunos
chlorophene, our Food & Drug
Administration banned its use
for washing infants. Then,
when staph outbreaks began
occurring in hospital nurser
ies, this ban was modified.
However, products such as an
tiperspirants and deodorant
soaps containing hexachloro
phene have been removed from
the market.
Staph infections can be ex
ternal, as in minor cuts and
scratches, or internal causing
pneumonia, gastroenteritis,
septicemia, etc. Unfortunately,
staph infections may be very
hard to cure since the "staph"
germ has developed resistance
to most known antibiotics. Sci
entists are always working on
new methods to prevent and
cure the disease.
After hours of scuba diving,
my skin feels awfully dry. Why
is that?
The dryness you experience
out of the water may be a
sensation, and not actuality,
since your skin is used to be
ing very wet while diving. Too,
it might be that you fail to dry
off properly. Quick evapora
tion of moisture can cause skin

Every day I take a long
stroll around the park near
my house as part of my "keep
healthy" program. However,
my friend told me that in
'order to be beneficial, a walk
has to be brisk. Is she right?
Your friend is absolutely
right. Recent tests have shown
that the real benefits of walk
ing are derived when the walk
is a brisk one. When one
walks or strides in a brisk
manner, the oxygen intake is
greater, heart activity is in
creased, and the blood circu
lates better. The body has
about 60,000 miles of blood
vessels, mostly capillaries,
which are responsible for
bringing food and oxygen to
the muscles and other tissues.
During exercise, these vessels
dilate to bring more blood to
the active muscles. Another
benefit of walking is that mus
cles which are being used,
work as an extra pump to
squeeze blood out of capillar
ies and back toward the heart.
So, continue that walk around
the park, but instead of strol
ling, move at a faster pace.

TO BE EQUAL
x By VERNON JORDAN
Executive Director, National Urban League
Young's Wisdom Lives On ,
On March 11, 1971, just two short years ago, Whitney Young died
His passing has left a gaping leadership void that grows more
apparent with each passing day in these troubled times. But
Whitney left a magnificent legacy, not only in the organ
ization he guided so well, the National Urban League, but also
in public statements oa our society.
In his last book, Beyond Racism, he outlines his vision of an open
society mat moves us beyond out-dated concepts of racism, in
tegration or separation. He wrote: "THE BLACK MANY BEST
HOPE lies not in a narrow separatism or in the cultural suicide of
assimilationism, but in a Open Society; a society founded on
mutual respect and cooperation, and pluralistic group self
consciousness and pride. The Open Society toward which we must
strive is a society in which black people have their fair share of the
power, the wealth, and the comforts of the total society. It it
society in which blacks have the options to live in a black neigh
borhood or to live in an integrated one; in which blacks have
control ov es to the same degree that
other groups have. It is society based on mutual respect and
complete equality."
In one of his last public statements, he wrote an eloquent
testimony to the need to end poverty, a moral statement that rings
especially true in these days of retrogression.
"NO ONE IS MEANT ' my Young
wrote, "and no one is meant to tolerate the wrongs of oppression.
Where poverty exists, all are poorer; where hate flourishes, all are
corrupted; where Injustice reigns, all are unequal. Our society is as
strong as its weakest link thus the links that bind Mack and
white, poor and rich must be strengthened or we all will perish.
Every man is our brother, and every man's burden our own. Now Is
the time for the poor, the black, the oppressed, to unite and to turn
our society around for our own sokes and for society's sake"
He took upon himself the role of ambassador to confused white
Americans who did not understand the black drive toward
freedom. He said:
"BLACK PEOPLE WORK TOO. They worked for 250 years for
nothing in this country as slaves. They have done the dirtiest work
in mis society as have Mexican-Americans and Indians and
migrant workers. And they don't believe that they have to love
America or leave it What they believe is they have to make
America lovable so that nobody wants to leave it ...
"Black Power is not a shout of violence or a shout of separation.
Black Power simply means: 'Look at me. I'm here. I have dignity.
I have pride. I have roots. I insist, I demand that I participate in
those decisions that affect my life and the lives of my children. It
means that I'm somebody.' That's what Black Power means and
white America should be thankful forjt It should build on it."
Congressman
Hawkins'
Column
By REP. AUGUSTUS F. HAWKINS
, -
OEO Too Successful'
' (Editor's note: Following are Opening remarks of Chairman
Augustus P. Hawkins at the House Subcommittee on Equal Op
portunities hearings on February 7 and 8, held in the Raybura
House Office Building.) rfne7
In 1971, Congress approved and the President signed, legislation
continuing the Office of Economic Opportunity until July 1, 1974.
Subsequent; to the November 1972 elections, President Nixon,
without consultation with the Congress, announced the discon
tinuance of OEO and the fragmentation of its programs.
Administration spokesmen have engaged in "hit and run" at
tacks on the poor, made baseless charges, implied a connection
between OEO and civil disturbances, and accused OEO, programs
of being anti-family, anti-American, wasteful, and harmful.
THE FATE OF THE POOR, the disadvantaged, and minorities
among us has been turned over to the budget cutters in the Office of
Management and Budget whose knife has been skillfully used to
dismember the needy and spare die greedy.
Of all the cutbacks in federal spending proposed by President
Nixon, none is less defensible nor more unconscionable than the
abolition of the Office of Economic Opportunity (OEO).
These cuts - along with other reductions in human welfare ser
vices - total over $8 billion.
AT THE SAME TIME. SPECIAL subsidies to private corporate
groups (through direct payments, tax subsidies, overpayments,
cost overruns, and investment tax credits) continue in an amount
exceeding $19 billion. The rationale is that cuts are needed to
prevent a tax increase. But it is the corporate subsidies not human
welfare programs that would foster a tax increase. But even this
could be avoided if we had real tax revision to remove special
privileges.
Between 1964 and 1969 over 11 million Americans were lifted out
of poverty through OEO programs and by President Johnson's
economic policies. Since 1969, under this Administration, the
number of people living in poverty has skyrocketed as a result of
Nixon's economic policies. According to a report done by the Urban
Institute under contract to OEO (but not released by White House)
the real number of poor people in 1970 was about 26.1 million and
some specialists placed it at 35 million.
ON SEPTEMBER 6, 1969, PRESIDENT Nixon, in a letter to
Senator Nelson, said: "The Office of Economic Opportunity must
be an advocate for the poor within the federal agency structure ...It
is my determination to strengthen the Office of Economic Op
portunity and its community action arm in contributing to the goals
of providing full economic opportunity for every American."
Thus, if this agency and its programs have become ineffective
and wasteful, they have become so since 1969. Evidence to this is
yet lacking.
BUT TO THE CONTRARY as these hearings will disclose
despite Administration efforts to produce failures, to discredit
community action, and to end citizen participation, remarkable
success and minimum failure has resulted. Actually, as in legal
services - the programs are opposed because they have proved
"too successful."
In 1964, Congress established OEO because existing agencies
were not meeting the problems of the poor. Achievements have
included development of Heads tart programs, multipurpose
community health centers, involvement of psraprofessionala as
well as several hundred thousand volunteers, and the concept of
legal services for the poor resulting in the incorporation of public
service law in the curriculurns of numerous law schools.
COMMUNITY ACTION AGENCIES have generated millions of
dollars of non-Federal and private resources in the fight against
poverty, and have proved to be effective arms of local governments
in dealing with people alienated from the system.
No sensible person can possibly view calmly the results of the
demobilization of these efforts. The destruction of indigenous
leadership, the subjection of the powerless poor to rivalry over the
pitifully small coffers of revenue sharing. The inevitable results
would create the most distressing and turbulent period in our
history since the 1930's.

for housing management, a
position which pays $38,000-a-year.
"I believe in being ex

In public housing, they've
been just the opposite."
Crawford was once quoted
saying. According to his
office, Crawford was "in
meetings all day" and could
not be reached for comment.
Jesse Gray, executive di
rector of the NTO, called
the appointment "arrogant"
and "contemptuous" of te
nants. And, Tony Henry,
director of the NTO's Na

"Howard Phillips of the hous

to the acting OEO director
who is currently wholeheart

of Economic Opportunity, the
Government's antipoverty

Henry said Crawford may
"set about destroying the

the Nixon nominee has "al

toward low income tenants

"In the past, presidents have
discussed with Congress the
need for institutional aid, the
construction and remodeling

of specific categorical prog

are here for our students."
The presidents urged con

low cost student loans at a
realistic level in addition to
the funding of the Basic Edu

proposed by President Nixon.
The presidents stressed the
need for quick action on the

the student aid provisions.
Without quick action, institu
tions will be unable to tell
their students what kind of
financial aid may be availa ble
