fL, Jasaf tt, IT 1 ilTORIALS & COMI H Victory W w. To AH Our fakers THE CAROLINA TIMES TAKES THIS OPPORTUNITY TO SHARE THIS LETTER FROM A SON TO HIS FATHER AS A TRIBUTE TO ALL FATHERS AT THIS TIME OF YEAR Earl G. Gram is publisher of Hack Enterprise, published monthly and whose contributors are outstanding personalities throughout the nation. Dear Dad: If you were here today, I think you would be proud of the growing accomplishments of an increasing number of black businessmen, your son included, who have reached what certainly must be a milestone in achievement in America. We as black men have arrived at a point in history where we can identify thousands of black-owned and black-controlled business many of them embryonic and still struggling for survival that have been and are being established across this country. Black Enterprise has been able to recognize 100 leading black service and manufacturing firms as well as 42 insurance companies, 37 banks and 44 savings and loan associations. As you know, these accomplishments have come in the face of massive obstacles that prevented you and other proud men of your day from reaching your potential. Some of those obstacles have been overcome, but others remain, maddeningly, as barriers to real opportunity, frustrating the best efforts of those who believe that commerce should be open to all. Sadly, racism in our day, as it was in yours, is a formidable foe. From time to time, I think of your frequent admonition to get an education so that we could walk through the door when the opportunity came. That was part of the formula, the fest being that formal education, though necessary, simply foresight equips you for die real education that is a part of doing business in die free enterprise system, m If you were sitting across the table from me, I could hear you say, "Imagine what we could accomplish, not only for race but for our country, if the toon were really Yetj some thingshave happened. Some of us have become members of the boards of major corporations. A black man now serves on the board of the insurance company with which you once traded. That automobile you could never afford to buy - well, a black man is now a member of its manufacturer's board. Still, these are humble beginnings. But they are significant. There has been no time in our history when there have been so many qualified and qualifiable young black men and women who will make our list one day. Our journey of accomplishment will not be over until the gap is closed between the inequities and the promise of this country, all men and women have equal access to opportunity in the marketplace, and the median income of blacks and other minorities is levei wim mo national median. It will end when the majority in America understand that impoverishment can be a state of mind, and not just a physical condition solely assigned to the "disadvantaged" In saluting the nation's leading black businessmen in this issue, I'm not unmindful that this month we celebrate Father's Day. So we salute you and the other fathers who started us on our way, for the owners of the companies which appear in this issue honor not only themselves, but their forebears as well by being here. Your loving son, Earl Is Important mi Mr ttwrinv Mm I THOHAS BkAPLEY QVhH MAYOR SAM YORTY IN in ANGELES CAN BE uipuen AttanruruF 9 timfthrV rmtrmmr r rr WW f ncunL-1 tun ur i DEMAGOGUE Am A DEFEAT FOR RACISM. MM j&Zkim WW i . With the fiscal year ending for many persons who are retiring at this time of the year, perhaps some thought to die arena of comfortable retirement should be noted by all persons. A comfortable retirement is the dream of every working person- but that dream could possibly turn into a nightmare if plans are not set into motion at any early stage. The retiree too often could have over-estimated the financial needs of health care and housing during this ever rising inflation economy. Successful retirement calls for careful planning -and the time to start is now. You are never too young. Taking a tip from their elders, many young couples in their 30's already know where they will be living 25 years from now...and possibly on how much money if things go well with diem. Certainly this has been a built in gain for many young couples as they have, in many instance been forced to purchase a home for themselves andor their small children. Money, health care, housing, and leisure are the big needs dunng retirement as well as needs for young couples today. Such planning for these needs should be the aim of all who look to a more comfortable iiitirement. . , Wiley Harris of NBNS offers some "secrets" for happiness when you reach the stage of life. Know exactly what your finances are. A debt-free home is a prime goal. Get good health checkups. Be prepared for the way your body is going to behave the rest of your life. Determine whether or not you really need your car. It is usually a very expensive item in one's budget. Get iid of outmoded appliances before you retire. Don't burden yourself moving old worn-out machinery to a new home or taking a chance on repairs and replacements after you are settled down. Combine house and leisure, retire in surroundings that offer you the most pleasure if possible. Don't move just because it is where the children are. Maintain your self-identity and don't rely on your children and grandchildren to provide company and assurance. Have a trusted attorney who will draw up a safe will. Give a "test run" to retirement before you actually do. It is one way to figure out how far your dollar wm sireicn. Seek freedom in your retirement try different life styles, find new hobbies and interests. Remember the important time is now-start your retirement planning right now. It will help you to know what to juggle to come out on top. D ORN IN 1845 IN NEWBERN, N V, HE WAS EDUCATED IN CLEVELAND, OHIO -GETTING HIS LL.

Why the interest in the Observance of Children's Day has waned through the years is no deep dark secret-other things have crowded out interest--the basic need for honoring our children. Children's Day was started by the Methodist Epicopal Church in the year 1868. The orgin, one can say without reservations, has nothing to do with the lack of interest in the celebration. The date is still a Red Letter Day on Sunday School Calendars: the 2nd Sunday in June. In the past Children's Day was a community project; members -and friends -pooled their creative skills in decorations and picnic lunches; and, children were given parts in the church's worship services and, too, special programs were arranged especially for them. The Tiny Tot's Choir of Union Baptist celebrated their 9th Anniversary recently. Ironically as the name sounds when this group of youngsters stand up to be counted, they are children doing a fine job. The Pastor of Cox Memorial F. Elementary School where the Physical Fitness Test was recently held for the 5th and 6th graders. Mrs. Jones is the Physical Education Instructor and Principal Baxter Redenour were both elated over the total results of the Physical Fitness Test. A total of 72 pupils participated in the various tests. Events included: Flexed Arm Hang, Sit-ups, Standing lana'n Jumps and the 50-Yard Dash. This was La Bonnie's first year at tne u. . scnooi, however, this is Robin's third year.

On track La Bonnie ran 2 lapes in 2.21 seconds while Robin outstrided her by 3 seconds-actual time: 2.18 seconds. In the 50 Yard Dash, La Bonnie took first place by a minute and two seconds: Score; La Bonnie 7.3; Robin 6.9, Rating-excellent La Bonnie thinks it would be a wonderful idea to invite parents and other interested persons to the May Day Fitness Test; "and the winners should dress up and walk across the stage to receive their awards". Upon winning the award, "I wanted to cry with joy . I was like a jumping-jack, I jumped over everyone". Both girls would like to win two more certificates; two additional certificates will qualify the recipient for a trophy.

Information on birth expectations will be collected here the week of June 18-22 from a sample of households.

The questions are in addition to the usual ones asked in the monthly survey on employment and unemployment conducted nationwide by the Census Bureau for the U. S. Department of Labor. Results of this monthly survey provide a continuing measure of the economic health of the Nation. The April survey showed that employment, at 83.9 million seasonally adjusted, was little change from March. Unemployment remained essentially unchanged at 5.0 percent, but was substantially below the 5.8 percent of April a year ago. W. B. Church and Senior Choir highlighted this Anniversary celebration. In the words of Dr. David L Bell: "it is amazing to see children perform so beautifully for the church and God the Heavenly Father". He further stressed, that, "with a little time and effort spent training our children, the rewards are marvelous.

Saying there may be a connection between the two events, the Fund has asked the Federal Bureau of Investigation to look into the break-in and see if it has any relation to the Watergate incident. "I really don't know if there is a connection, but we were pnoaoed in thines they (the Nixon Administration) might consider politically sensitive", said the Fund's director, Jack Greenberg. When workers returned to work at the headquarters on Columbus Circle, it was discovered that two filing cabinets had been opened. The cabinets contained minutes of board of directors meetings and other material. Greenberg said all the individuals could have done is merely call him and ask for the information, which was public anyway. On the evening of Sept. 3, 1971, the office of Dr. Ellsberg's psychiatrist in Beverly Hills, Calif, was broken Into. It was headed by G. Gordon Liddy and E. Howard Hunt .lr both convicted in the Watergate break-in. Informed sources have contended that il... hronk.in was at the direction of the White House, plumbing facilities. That figure dropped to 12 per cent in 1970. For Black Americans, however, the picture was not quite as rosy. According to tne Census report, blacks enjoyed many of these advances and even managed to close the gap IB some areas. But the perpetual gap of homeownership continued to be as wide between blacks and whites as it has for several decades. In 1970, for instance, 65 per cent of all white families owned the homes they lived in, as compared to only 42 per cent for blacks. And, although the proportion of both races owning their homes rose somewhat during the 1960s, the gap between blacks and whites remains at roughly the same as it was as long as 30 years ago. In reference to plumbing, 83 per cent of all black families had full plumbing in 1970, a dramatic increase from 1950, when only 30 per cent of these families lived in homes with all normal plumbing facilities. The new analytical report also shows that black familes are more likely to be residing in older housing than is the population as a whole. About 49 per cent ot biacK i amines nccunied homes constructed before 1939, as compared to approximately 40 per cent tor the entire population. WASHINGTON- (NBNS) -John Connally, former Texas governor and Treasury Secretary during President Nixon's first term, would be the strongest Republican presidential nominee to contend with the Democrats in 1976, according to Georgia State Rep. Julian Bond. Addressing a breakfast news conference last week, Bond, a political activist, said, "Connally would be the toughest Republican candidate because he is such an aggressive and outgoing person" who attracts '.many voters. ie1r;.T uV. In addition, Bond said "Connally is just so slick" that he reminds people of the late President Lyndon B. Johnson with "sort of Richard Nixon too, and a little of Spiro Agnew". Bond said he thinks the best Democrat candidate to oppose Connally would be Massachusetts Sen. Edward Kennedy. However, the Georgia legislator said in recent conversations with Kennedy, the Senator did not indicate an interest in running for president. Nevertheless, Bond said he believes that Kennedy is interested and that the Massachusetts Democrat capable of uniting the old Democratic coalition formed 'under Franklin D. Roosevelt as well as attracting southern whites. Citing Kennedy's recent visit to Alabama Gov. George Wallace, Bond said Kennedy has already made a positive move in that direction and did so without compromising his liberal and contrary views on ma ior ... u Bond said he inougnu Kennedy's ChappaquiddicK incident would not allow the Senator to raise the morality in government issue in the campaign, aitnougn uc (Kennedy) does stand for it". The Georgia legislator also noted that the Southern Election Fund, which he heads, has raised $115,000 this year In Its efforts to support candidates for office in the South. In Mississippi, Bond said, 24 nf 36 candidates supported by thV :'!Kincr won last0 month's Democrat primary, and 80 per cent of those are expected to be elected. Bond also said the Fund plans to support candidates in Florida, Georgia, North Carolina and Virginia. In conclusion, Bond, an active sunnorter of Democratic presidential nominee George McGovern last year, said he would still back the South Dakota Senator in a rerun of the election because "He (McGovern) stood closer to the things I believe in".
