FALLS LOOMS AS GASTONIA'S NEXT RACE COUNCILMAN GASTONIA - Barring possible providential hinderance, this tex til capital of the South—popula tion 35.000 —will have a new col ored city councilman without los ing the Ward Number Four post gained by incumbent Nathaniel Barber in 1853. A last-minute guessing game of , political action on the part of the race leaders here resulted in James Q. Falls, insurance man ager and IBPOEW (Elks) official, j filing for the Ward Four council- j manic post just ten minutes be- j fore the 5 P.M. deadline April 6. ! This apparently caught the w’hlte politics ofi guard since it was reportedly generally expected that incumbent Barber was going to stand for a fourth 2-year term. Barber had been elected in 1953, 1965 and 1957. In 1953 he was chosen as city treasurer by his white fellow-oounciimen and held the city’s purse-strings for two yews, In private life Barber is secre tary-treasurer of the Excelsior Credit Union which is reputedly worth nearly a haif-miilion dol - lars. Fails is president of the fin ancial institution which has been a, bulwark in the economic life of (his community for some 15 years. Barber issued a statement thanking the citizens-for a.U past supgx»rt sukl stated as his reason for withdrawing from the race (he would have been automatically reelected since no person had fil ed against him* the condition of hie health and the prompting of his physician, along with the urg ing of hi# family to reduce his work load. It to said here that during the 185 S contest one of Barber's white opponents died suddenly and an other became afflicted and Bar ger was elected. In 1855 and 1957 Barber had no serious opposition. Falls is said to have been the per sonal choice of Barber. CHARLOTTE - Colored citl sens ctf the Biddlevilie community mar J. C.

C. | ; nor a carton of cigarettes, it only takes a little time and effort a bout twice a year. Now that local elections are being held all over Tarheelia now. Why not get out committee working to register our people so our voice can be heard? No where else can we be felt as huch as we can be in the ballot dox. Let our so-called leaders come forth and teach our people to register and vote, and W'hafc to vote for. We congratulate the Rev. Isaac i Horton of Whiteville for his good fight on the local scene as he ran for office. Many Negroes will say that a Negro should not run until he is sure of having enough votes to elect him. This you can never be sui-e of. Therefore, one must try and try, ‘again and again’ (as FDR used to say), And Negroes must learn to support their race candidates. Political apathy Is our curse and greatest hinderance to our progress. Preachers and tea chers can do much to alleviate this condition. We have observed that, per centage-wise, Raleigh is no bet ter off in fighting for civil rights and political action than Rocky Mount, where its almost nil. And Durham, considering its great Ne gro-millions and college potential, is not far ahead of all others, ev en tho we are proud of her. Too many Caddies and the like and not. enough business expansion by those who are fairly well-heeled to assist our underdogs. Think it over.
