The committee is establishing itself as a clearinghouse for women's problems, and would like to pool all of the women's groups in Durham. The committee is seeking the power to in vestigate discrimination of Title VII and Title IX of the Civil Rights Act of 1964. The group will ad dress six major areas: sex ual harassment and discrimination in employ ment, battered women cases, teenage pregnancy and sex education, career development and the displaced homemaker, alcohol and drug abuse, rehabilitation of women in prison. Career develop ment and the displaced homemaker will be the major issue, because this critically necessary pro gram that has been con ducted by the YWCA is being cut by President Reagan.

The marchers returned the next day, a little drier and a little more angry as news came announcing that Reagan's budget had passed. Again meeting at 'the Washington Monu ment, 1500 protestors marched to the Capitol grounds and held a rally with several congressional leaders among the speakers. Jackson again spoke asking the people what the response should be when people die in hospital waiting rooms because they have no green card . and when 600,000 students don't return to college in the fall. His response was that there is no more time for negotia tion, only demonstration. He denounced taxation without representation still existing in America because there are no black representatives from heavily black populated states like Georgia, North Carolina and Mississippi. Congresswoman Shirley ' Chisolm and D.C. Delegate Fauntroy, both CBC members, said the budget offered by CBC was a balanced, colorless budget that addressed the needs of all people. In a dynamic speech,; Chisolm said "unfortunately, the budget was presented by eighteen blacks" who were not given the support of their white colleagues due to racism and a disregard for the needs of minorities and the poor. cw York Con t jsman Ted Weiss and oltrado Con-: gressvoman Pat Shroeder urged lemonstrators not to give p.

There is a resurgence of activity by the Ku Klux Klan and the Nazi party. Who, or what group, speaks as the leader for Black Americans? Unemployment is still high in the Black community. These are only a few Of the headlines that Black people have read during the past few months. Yes, my friends, there are some difficult times ahead for Black people. But the problems are not insurmountable. We, Black Americans, can and will over come. We can gain moral support from yesteryear's quote: "Trouble don't last always;' but we will have to take more positive action if we are to overcome these obstacles to improve socio-economic conditions. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. once said: "We must learn to live together as brothers, or perish as fools!' and I echo his sentiments when I urge that we use non-violent methods to improve conditions. Our economy can be improved through jobs andpr entrepreneurship. The development of new business is never an easy task and the probable re duction of funds for minority business development won't make the task any easier. So let's take the path that requires nothing but desire, discipline, dedica tion, and initiative. I am talking about educational and job preparation. Our young people have to stay in school and not only do their best, but they must select courses of study that relate to the jobs that they want. And Black adults, with dead-end jobs, must give up some party-time and enroll in some evening classes that will make them more com- . petitive in today's labor market. Joe'Bhck vice President . The Greyhound Corporation
