am. IBTHE CAROLINA TIMES Sat.. Sept 1. 1973 mnoouai" HEWSIH THE MOTHER TONGUE For Black people, the mother tongue is the same all over the country. It's the unique way we have of expressing ourselves. That's one of the reasons the National Black Network saw the need for a national Black news service. What do we call Black news? It's simply news reported by Black people, edited by Black people, and affecting the lives of Black people. That's the National Black Network-a vital communications link between Black communities everywhere. It's a bet that when you listen to an NBN station, you'll know where it's coming from. After all, it's carrying your news & National Black Network Division of Unity Broadcasting Network. Inc. I OKA- PREGNANCY PLANNING; AND HEALTH Hr Mrs. Blorii RiQftbM Dear Mrs. Riggsbee: I have one child. During my second pregnancy I had a miscarriage, and I was put in the hospital for a D & C. What could have been done to stop the miscarriage and what are the chances of this happening again? The doetor said the fetus probably had passed out during the miscarriage. If it did not, would a D & C then be a fancy name for a legalized abortion? If the fetus did not pass out, would they have studied it without my permission? Mrs. J.S. Dear Mrs. S: Doctors don't know exactly what causes miscarriages. When the fetus doesn't develop properly, or sometimes not at all, the body simply rejects it -particularly in the early stages of developments Some women, for a variety of reasons, have had many miscarriages. There is nothing the doctor or patient can do to stop a miscarriage once it has started.

The D & C is a procedure for scraping the inside of the womb to remove any residue that might have been left by the miscarriage so that ' your body could easily carry another pregnancy. You don't need to worry whether or not the fetus passed with the bleeding or was removed by the 0 & C, and you have no reason to suspect that the D & C could in any way be called a legalized abortion. Doctors would not do a D & C if there were any chance at all of disturbing a normal pregnancy. Abortions are deliberate interruptions of normal pregnancies. Yours was not a normal pregnancy and it was not deliberately interrupted. Your body interrupted it. Doctors will study the fetus (if there is one) in miscarriages until 20 weeks along. All tissue passed in miscarriages is studied by law in hospitals for diagnostic purposes. Dear Mrs. Riggsbee: I have just found out that my husband has smoked marijuana. We want to have children, but I have heard that a woman who gets pregnant by someone who smoked marijuana has a good chance of having a deformed or mentally retarded child. If so, what should be done? Also, if he quit smoking marijuana, how long should the couple wait before they have children Research Dir J. S. Alexander Is For Voter Educ. ATLANTA. GA. - The nonpartisan Volar Education Project, Inc. (VEP) has named John Stanley Alexander as the Director of Research for its programs of assisting minority political participation in the 1 1 southern states. VEP Executive Director John Lewis, in announcing the appointment, indicated that Mr. Alexander's responsibilities in the new post would include research of minority politics, evaluation of VEP programs, and the planning:' and implementation of all VEP research. "Stan Alexander brings to this post a combination of relevant educational background and experience in the practical aspects of research programs," stated Lewis, "VEP research is most important, because it helps pinpoint the areas of the South which have the greatest need for our programs of voter registration, citizenship education, and leadership training. With limited financial resources to operate in such a large geographic area, it is imperative that we have a well-researched plan of action." C - Mr. Alexander holds a It. A. degree in sociology from Johnson C. Smith University, attended graduate school in sociology at Atlanta University, and has completed special courses in research at Boston University and the Research and Evaluation Institute in Columbia, Maryland.

"I am looking for ward to an exciting careef in political research, seeking more effective ways to involvnmorc rrfnority citizens in the political process." The U. S. Labor force expected to expand by 15.9 million during the 1970s. reaching 101.8 million by 1980, the U. S. Labor Department's Bureau of Labor Dear R.J.: .;, M.M There are no medical reports that show that there is any genetic damage done to children by the fact that the man smokes marijuana. The children, so far as medical science knows today, would not have a mental deficiency or be deformed. However, this is pot to say that I recommend smoking marijuana. It is illegal, all its effects are not known, and some doctors do believe that it causes or increases psychological problems in people who smoke it. Dear Mrs. Riggsbee: My husband and I want to adopt a child, but we have contacted the local social services department and they are not taking applications at this time. Where else could we go to apply for adoption? Mrs. A.V. Dear Mrs. V.: As you have found out, there are not many infants available for adoption these days. However, you want to he sure that the adoption agency that helps you is a good one. The Children's Home of North Carolina may be able to help you.

A team of six interviewers will poll 100 of the households of RougemontBahama and 50 of the Bragtown households for a total of some 1600 families. Answers to t he questionnaire will be used to -compile statistical data on health problems in the communities.

The data collected in the study will provide information for planning purposes in the future and will help identify health related problems such as barriers to getting health care, environmental factors, and special conditions in the communities. RougemontBahama and Bragtown were selected for the study for a number of reasons. Both areas have community outreach clinics and therefore offer the residents alternative models of health care. They also have active health advisory boards composed or representatives of the communities.

Bugs are a Big Deal No matter how efficiently man farms his land, no matter what kind of natural controls he may choose to use, man will always lose out to bugs unless he uses pesticides. "Sink's reproduce far too rap idly for farmers to be able to raise food in sufficient amounts to feed both pests and humans The pests will win it all every time, says Ur. Kobert White' Stevens, Chairman of the Bu reau of Conservation and En vironmental Science at Rutgers University. Estimated annual losses of crop plants and livestock in the United States is currently about SiO billion, even with our in tensive pest cqntrol measures and efficient pesticides. This is a "tax" of 25 cents on every dollar spent for food. Z IJO PROGRAM D UTll FOJfaT m VI IF YOU CAN APPRECIATE... t IF YOU CAN APPRECIATE what Durham's Program For Progress has to offer: Enough additional parks and recreational facilities to bring us up to standard. A long overdue fire training facility. New residential streets that will cover approximately 70 per cent of our dirt streets. More water and sewer lines for more adequate service. More ihproughfares tqpMfc the traffic jarrn. W? j .4 IF YOU CAN APPRECIATE that every year, every month, even every day we wait, costs for these vital improvements continue to rise -a conservative estimate is approximately 11 per cent per year. More than 50 per cent in just five years. IF YOU CAN APPRECIATE that eventually some how, some way your City government will have to face these problems even on a piece meal basis and failure to approve bonds leaves them little choice. IF YOU CAN APPRECIATE that Durham is slated to receive $12 million in Revenue Sharing from the Federal Government for local use -some $2 million already in hand -which can be applied against these vital improvements. IF YOU CAN APPRECIATE that instead of having $2-212 million trickling in each year over a five-year period, by using $2.9 million in Revenue Sharing, Durham can realize asmuch as $17 million in almost immediate funds. This would swell our total available money over five years to $26-$27 million. IF YOU CAN APPRECIATE that these bonds can be paid off with NO INCREASE IN OUR PRESENT 10$ TAX SET ASIDE FOR MUNICIPAL DEBTS. IF YOU CAN APPRECIATE ALL THESE FACTS which have been gone over time and again and endorsed by a large cross section of Durham C organizations and individuals who know financing. THEN YOU CAN APPRECIATE that Durham voters stand on the threshold of one of the most unusual opportunities that has ever come our way! , The key to the success of Durham's Program For Progress lies in the forthcoming Municipal Bond Referendum.
