Adopts Most

Of Resolutions
Delegates to the 30th
annual meeting of the N.C.
State Conference of Branches,
held here October 24-27,
adopted the most aggressive set
of resolutions ever formulated
by the militant body.
Even though there were
resounding notes Of
impeaching the President, the
committee resolved to have no
part of such a procedure. The
criticism of the nation's chief
executive was encouched in the
following resolution.
"We deplore the ideology of
President Nixon's federalism.
We would have it known that it
is not new, but a replay of
what we have long since
experienced in North Carolina.
Even though we have had no
choice, we unservedly say to
Mr. Nixon that his federalism
eats at the very core of
dempcracy and we call upon
him to cease being racially
biased and fulfil his promise to
bring Ameri.-a together. This'
means he must reverse his field
and carry the ball, instead of
being the quarterback, calling
plays that keep our backs to
the wall, on the one-yard line.
We reaffirm our zeal and stated
position to protect our goal
against all the decoys he might

N. Carolina State Clean Water
Bond Act Faces Voters Nov. 6th
One of the questions facing
North Carolina voters in the
November 6 election is
approval or disapproval of a
technical amendment to the
State's Clean Water Bond Act
of 1971.
Adoption of the
amendment would release
about $30 million for helping
local governments build or
improve wastewater treatment
facilities.
The $30 million is part of a
$50 million allocation set up
by the bond act to meet
Federal requirements for State
matching funds for local
projects which were approved
for Federal assistance. About
$20 million of this allocation
has been committed for this
purpose.
Late last year, however,
Congress eliminated the
matching requirement. This
action had the effect of
freezing the $30 million
balance in the account, since
the money can be spent only
for matching grants.
The 1973 General Assembly
authorized a referendum on a
proposed amendment to the
bond act which would allow
the State to use the $30
million for grants for local
projects rather than restricting
their use for matching Federal

Forty Black-owned and

Claims AASCU
Members Face
Major Issues
Dr. Albert N. Whiting, the
chancellor of North Carolina
Central University (NCCU),
says most small,
state-supported colleges and
universities favor the retention
of low tuition rates.
Whiting said he thinks
almost all of the 325
state-supported institutions
that belong to the American
Association of State Colleges
and Universities (AASCU) are
opposed to a recommendation
by the Carnegie Commission
that state-supported colleges
and universities raise their
tuition rates to the level of
private schools.
Whiting will assume the
presidency of the AASCU at
the closing session of the
association's annual conference
next week in San Diego, Calif.
The NCCU chancellor said
most of the members of the
AASCU are schools with
enrollments ranging from
1.000 ..to 12,000 ssjdent&
Many of the institutions are
converted state teacher's
colleges, although a number of
the members, including NCCU,
were never teacher's colleges.
Whiting said all of the
AASCU members are
interested in the financial issue
"because we all cater to a
student body which is not
affluent."
Whiting was asked in an
interview about the Carnegie
Commission's recommendation
that extensive financial aid
programs be combined with
the increase in tuition.
Despite the availability of
extensive financial aid, Whiting
replied, the increase in tuition
would make the small,
state-supported institutions
indistinguishable from the
private schools.
The result, he said, would
