Unfortunately, public housing, which Is another subsidy program that Congress appropriated $178 million for last year, remains frozen. In his ruling, Judge Hichey dicounted the HUD Secretary's objections to the program saying: "The fact that the Secretary It dlssatified with these programs is immaterial if the Congressional mandate requires that they be operated oh a continuing basis." He said he believed that they did and said: "It is not within the discretion of the Executive to refuse to execute laws passed by Congress but with which the Executive presently disagrees." The lawsuit was brought by the Common wealth of Pennsylvania, the Maine State Housing Authority, five non-profit corporations and a variety of other civil groups. The Census Bureau says that 24.5 million Americans live below the poverty level. About 3,8 million live in the 1.1 million public housing units which have been built since 1937.

In other social and economic categories, too, the situation was the same. Bayard Rustin, current head of the A. Philip Randolph Institute, was primarily responsible for the mammoth job of putting the March together. 'He' notes in his assessment of the decade that civil rights, progress has been made, but there are shortcomings as well. The question of why there was only limited success is "an extremely complex" one, he notes. His "first response to this question "is the lack of sufficient unity in black demands." The second reply, he says, "Involves a failure of will among certain elements of liberalism." SOUTHERN (Continued from front page) EDUCATION (Continued from front PfJ temporary restraining order.

In its more prosperous days, SCLC averaged about $1.2 million a year in funds. That figure soared to $4 million after the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., the better nown half of the King-Abernathy team, was assassinated. Recently, Abernathy said the organization is about $500,000 in the red and sinking fast. In stark contrast, the League operates on an annual budget of some $22.7 million, half of which comes from the federal government The remainder comes from private foundations and giant business corporations. Last year, the League's executive director, Vernon Jordan, traversed the countryside cultivating old and new donors and reaped some $21 million in funds for his efforts, thus setting a record goaL And, while the SCLC has been cutting its staff and trying to decide how best to go about Its unfinished business, at last week's conference the League seeking out new recruits, issuing reports, developing programmatic strategies, and taking care of business as usual Their leaders are just as divergent as their financial status. Abernathy seems to embody all the qualities of the real down-home, Southern country preacher, while Jordan, though he does not come on like Jesse Jackson, has another kind of charisma and power of the tongue which enables him to amass small fortunes for the League's work and doesn't seem to be one you would envision wearing blue denims. But, a ac tor director-producer Davis very eloquently summed up the situation in his keynote address at the Congressional Black Caucus' first annual fund-raising dinner, "it's not the ran. but the map. It's not the man, but the plan. Obviously, the message has either worn off or some of us did not get It In the first place. The Urban League and SCLC may have different personalities at the helm and even different strategies or game plans. But, they're both traveling the same gruesome road and they will eventually come out with the same end result better living conditions for black and poor people In this country. However, it seems at present that SCLC is being penalized because it has an Abernathy instead of a Jordan or even a King because it caters to poor people more so than the affluent, and because it conducts mule-driven teams down the streets of our cities rather than hold luncheons with the local Chamber of Commerce. Consequently, because of these factors, SCLC may very well be put to rest in the near future. ' As Rev. Hosea Williams, president of SCLC's Atlanta chapter, stated the case recently, "our fear is that any possible replacement (for Rev. Abernathy) would do nothing more than turn SCLC into another Urban League-type organization and there is not room enough for two Urban Leagues in America. Therefore, SCLC would be dead." And, just as there are benefits to having a two-party system, there are untold benefits to having both an Urban League and an SCLC. MRS. KOONTZ (Continued from front) make much more sense than other programs. It not only will improve nutrition in families within the state but will earn money for the state as well. Many counties have chosen to use food stamps because, in addition to the. improve nutrition and increased economic earnings, it also provides increased income among the businesses within the counties. Of the 100 counties in the state only 38 provide surplus commodity foods to hungry poor persons. Many times such food stuffs are not allocated to the poor for various and sundry reasons. The other 62 counties have found that the food stamp program have increased in both better nutrition among the families as well as added earnings to the business economy. It is estimated that about $1.7 million Mn state funds would be needed to convert surplus food commodity counties to the food stamp program. This money would, however, be offset by an estimated $3.4 million in state sales taxes from the sale of food stamps in the 38 commodity counties. Mrs. Koontz, of Salisbury, is a native of North Carolina. She will be remembered as the first black to serve as national president of the National Education Association (NEA). She also served as president of the N. C. Association of Classroom Teachers. From these positions she took the helm of the Women's Bureau in the U. S. Department of Labor.
