Minority Hiring Shows Increase
Have "ou ever thought
IMift how easy it to to get the
MpM impression of other
people and to carry them
lMkMt We unless some
experience comes a long to
throw new light on things and
cause us to realize our mistake?
Sometimes the realization
comes too late for us to make
atonement, as some of those
concerned have left this life.
All we can do is to only hope
that the lesson taught us has
borne fruit in our relations
with.
Yes, wrong impressions
can be formed about our loved
ones as well as friends and
strangers. At times, the
impressions we hold of them
may not represent what they
are at all. It probably would be
wise to school ourselves to be
open minded and tolerant and
to give to others the benefit of
the doubt when things happen
mat might be disturbing and
which we do not, at the
moment understand.
It's bad enough not to be
able to adapt ourselves to
others just because their
physical appearance
antagonizes or repels us for no
reason. But when we permit
ourselves to get mentally and
emotionally disturbed because
of the imagined wrong attitude
of love ones or friends toward
us, this can probably prove
even more damaging and
regrettable.
Some of us probably have
heard a person say: "He or she'
acts allright, but I
just don't like the way he or
she looks!" That's one example
of getting the wrong
impression of a person, and not
realizing that the same person
can turn out to be one of the
best friends he has ever had.
WASHINGTON (NBNS) -Of
nearly 22,000 new federal
white collar jobs which became
available last year, blacks and
other minorities were hired for
more than two-thirds of them,
according to a report released
last week by the Civil Service
Commission.
In addition, minority hiring
at the top of the federal service
ladder was even greater, with
an increase of 1,845 minority
In my opinion, never judge
other people only by their
looks and hold a wrong
impression of them, wherein it
may cause us to react too
quickly, make snap judgement
concerning them, and say
things which can hurt instead
of aiding the situation, because
one of the real and lasting
values of this life is the love
and understanding of our
fellowman.
Finally, looking back on my
adventurotp life, I am so
thankful that I was spared
early in my youth. From
developing and carrying a
wrong mental image of people
just because they looked
different and acted differently
from what my environment
and experience had caused me
to picture.

Even with these gains,
minorities still account for
only 16 per cent of the 1.3
million persons employed in
federal white collar jobs (GS-1
to 18) These figures are
based on a government-wide
survey taken last Nov. 30 and
were compared to those figures
gathered during a similar
survey taken in November,
1971.
During the year, the total
number of federal white collar
positions increased by 21,974.
About 14,982 of these jobs, or
68 per cent, were fitted by
minorities.
The largest minority group
in the surveys are blacks, but
tbe figures also include Indians,
Orientals, and
Spanish-surnamed Americans.

minorities in all federal jobs

I By JOHN HUDGINS MM aiBt
I HUDGINS
Today in this land indeed in
this world, we exist in one of
the most depressing times in
history. In a time when there
seems to be very little concern
for the good of humanity. In a
time when it is difficult to
separate those who believe in a
God from those who merely
profess to. Hopefully we shall
never again witness a time
when everybody seems to be
caught up in the acquiring of
personal wealth, personal
power, status.
We find that those institutions
that we learned to be amazed
at are no longer the sacred
ideas we thought they were. I
can remember growing up in
the Kennedy years and being
told here was a man of men, of
courage, upright, and just,
young and idealistic. Of course
I have since learned that all of
that wasn't true but at least in
my own limited mind there
was a feeling that seme
right was going on. and this
something was always bef
;...,. that I owld
Today one looks It t
leadership of the land and
a bunch of well educai
hoodlums. We find indeed
the nresident has little resoect
for laws that apply to him. We
find indeed a man caught up in
a lust for absolute power,,
absolute immunity from
restraints, absolutely no
accountability. Not only this
image at the top but we also
see and feel this image leaking .
through the bottom. We set
people around us only
concerned with what can be
gained on a personal basis,
power, money, material, status.
It is little wonder that there is
hardly anybody distrubed
about Watergate. We are too
busy with business as usual.
It is perhaps most easy for
Black people to say this
doesn't concern me, this Is
white folks business. It" is also
simple for? us to begin singing
the old song "I been down so
long 'til being down don't
bother me." We seem to think
that for some reason we are
not a part of the goings on in
high places. We must certainly
not forget who will bear the
brunt of the results.
So it is indeed easy for us, and
tempting to say all is lost. It is
easy to say its out of my hands
or out of my reach. I can do
nothing, what's the use
anyway?
But I have been told by many a
Black person, Son, push on, for
after tbe storm there is the
morning, after the dark there is
the light, and after the beating
the victory seems mueh
sweeter. And so today we can
begin to move toward our
responsibilities to humanity. It
was easy in the days that I
grew up because even the
president appeared to stand for
the right Today that is no
longer the case. We know
where the president stands, but
we also know where the city
council stands, and we know
where the majority of America
wants to stand, silent So it is
much more harder to stand for
the right, it is much harder to
stand for what you have been
taught to believe by your
parents, and Black people who
believe in you. Today we as a
people must assert our belief in
the beauty of humanity, we
must stand by the rights that
we have said all men have, and
if we believe that all men are
created equal then we as a
people are certainly equal to
the task of undoing the wrong
sustained by a ruling bunch of
hoodlums. I have found it
difficult to always follow the
thinking of the late Dr. Martin
King, but I believe one of the
last things he said in a speech
was; "There's going to be some
difficult days ahead." They are
here, and like Dr. King we
must answer the call to stand
against the wind, the tide,
nixongate and stand for right

Mrs. 6Kirii RisjsbN
Dear Mrs. Rigsbee:
Would you please put
something in your column
about people who wont
mind their own business as
far as other people's sex lives
are concerned? My husband
and I have been married for
several yean and do not have
any children, and you would
be surprised at the intimate
questions we are asked by
relatives and friends! Mostly,
they want to know whose
fault It is." A cousin once
tried to get me to admit that
ours was a "marriage of
convenience," not involving
sex at all.
I don't know how many
people have told one or both
of us that if we weren't able
to have children, we really
ought to adopt, one or two
soon because we're not
getting any younger. My
mother-in-law mentions every
time she sees me that if I
expect to have any children, I
had better not wait much
longer.
We are both still under 30
and are just not ready to start
our family, even though we
have been married almost
eight years. And we figure It
is nobody's business but our
own! Don't you agree?
Mrs. T.Y.
Dear Mrs. T.Y.:
1 certainly do agree. I have
heard this same complaint
from many other couples
who are childless, whether
through choice of not. It
certainly is strange how
people who would not dream
of discussing their own sex
lives with others feel
perfectly free to ask about
someone else's, just because a
marriage has not resulted in
children.
Many people who are in

state-funded kingergarten
classes will be limited to
approximately the same size.
Club Boulevard School
pupils may register at East End

Pupils who are accepted will
be required to have proper
immunizations, a physical
examination and verification of
age by the birth certificate.
Pupils who do not secure
physical examination and
immunizations from a private
physician may secure they
physical examination from the
Edgemont Community Center

Health Center and the
immunization from the
Durham County Health
Department.
It is Important that all
parents wishing to register their
children do so immediately at
the designated school during
regular school hours.
CASTEL GANDOLFO,
ITALY - (NBNS)- In what
Vatican aides described as
being directly related to
reports of Portuguese atrocities
in Mozambique, Pope Paul VI
denounced "the atrocious
attacks perpetrated by
Inhuman and organized
delinquency."
favor of family planning
when it means spacing
children, or limiting tbe
number or children, seem to
be against a young couple's
practicing birth control in
order to delay the start of a
family. Oh, a year or two is
understandable, these people
seem to feel, but after that,
there's no excuse for not
having a baby. And the
curious comments and the
personal questions begin.
Some women write that
they have been told (usually
by some relatives or friend)
that if they practice birth
control for a long time, they
will not be able to have a
baby when they do want one.
This, of course, is not true.
I believe that in some
cases--especially when
adoption of a child is
suggested or hinted at- Un
friend or relative really
believes that he (or she) is
being helpful. Older people,
who are childless themselves
and perhaps lonely, may feel
that young couples should be
warned of this possibility.
In my opinion, this is
indeed a personal matter and
not something that any
person should presume to
advise another about, unless
requested to do so. Most
people can understand that
when a couple has a baby it is
a matter of choice-it should
also be understood that
whether a couple ever has a
baby is also a matter of
choice in many cases. Today,
many young couples lead

Dear Mrs. Rigsbee:
What do you think of
using one quart of water
containing four spoons of
lemon juice for a douche to
prevent pregnancy? I heard
that acidity of the lemon kills
sperm. But would it be
harmful to use this method
for a long period of time?
Mrs, C.A.
Dear Mrs. C.A.:
I am afraid that this
method of birth control
would not prevent you from
getting pregnant. The add of
the lemon juice would not
kill sperm. The danger of
using any kind of douche
after sexual relations is that
sometimes the douche will
wash the sperm up into the
opening to the womb and
thus actually help pregnancy
take place.
If you have a question
about family planning, sex
education or similar kinds of
information that you would
like answered, write: Mrs.
Gloria Riggsbee, 214
Cameron Ave., Chapel Hill,
N. C. 27514. I will answer
your letters, either in this
column or by personal mail.
Ail. letters are confidential
and real names are never used
in the paper. Write me also if
you would like to have a free
booklet on birth control
methods.
