"First, he is a Democrat," Womble said, "and,"second, the last 24 Jiqurs have given credence and credibility to his negotiating skills. It shows that he is deeply committed and involved in trying to help the downtrodden. "His way of conducting his-campaign and involving all people is what the Democratic Party is all about." Newell expressed simliar feelings about the former football player and student body president at North Carolina A&T State'University. ' * ^ ** "I have watched Jesse all'along and I have looked at him at the sit-ins in Greensboro, at the first black caucus in Gary, Ind.," Newell said. "I have watched bim move iron*a real civil rtghts person to a person who has a great deal of interest in moving this country into the mainstream. And, as a final act, he has-pioved into the economy and that's what it's all about. Blacks are out of the economy and he wants to put them back in." Newell said that, if asked, she is willing to serve on a statewide committee in support of Jackson and promises to do whatever she can locally. "He has proved responsibility and there is really/to other way for us to look at it," Newell said. "He is the man of the hour. He is the man for the people." ' Vivian Burke, the only black alderman who has not pledged support to Jackson, has been chosen to work on a statewide committee for Walter Mondale. "If Jackson had announced his candidacy before I-was committed to Mondale, I would have gladly supported ' Jackson," Burke said. But, because she has given her \/-\ word to Mondale, she said, she will have to live with it. \ "Jackson is calling his campaign a Rainbow Coalition, \smd other candidates also have a right to have a rainbow of supporters," Burke said. "(But) I do want people to know that a vote for Rev. Jesse Jackson is a gain for us in some kind of way." Bailey said the Jackson's decision to go to Syria was enough to convince him to support his candidacy. "I've always sort of been with him sentimentally, bo*now he has really impressed me," Bailey said. "It shows that he has the ability to negotiate. At first, I didn't want him to go; I thought he would go over there and blunder." But his ability to win Goodman's release, Bailey said, means that Jackson can no longer be ignored. "Rev. Jackson as a man, even though he is black, will impress a lot of people, black or white," Bailey .said. "People will have to reckon with him." iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiifiiiiiHiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii Action From Page A1 closed due to a blind carve that they say is dangerous. ,The intersection is made even more hazardous, say the * residents, because traffic from Reynolda Road uses Kent Road as a short cut to Coliseum Drive. Wood, who represents the Northwest Ward, said she advised the residents to withdraw the petition because she felt the public hearing had the potential of being distasteful'. "...I had been getting all kinds of negative calls -some of which, and enough of which -- were vicious," said Wood. "I didn't want-those citizens to go through a distasteful hearing." Wood said the negative callers indicated that the board would grant the requests of the petitioners because of the their affluent status. The Public Works Committee, chaired by Burke, voted unanimously to close the Toad temporarily to see what effects it would have on the traffic in the area. Burke said she was concerned with the negative publicity the matter had received and that the statements made about the citizens of Kent Road were unfair., "No matter where a citizen lives and how he makes his income has no bearing on a citizen's safety," said Burke.
