And, the NT A 41st an nual convention, 27-30 August in this city, will be the first count toward blast-off,” an nounced Raymond M, Jones, ex ectuve secretary of the Nation al Technical Associates, at the national headquarters, 3310 Georgia Avenue, .\. vs., Wash ington, D. C. Jones is also a professor of civil engineering. The NT A is a large, pro fessional organization of black architects, engineers, scien tists, Planners, builder, and technicians with active chap ters throughout the U, S, Its convention will be devoted to exploring how technically train ed, black Americans can furth er the development of black nations. Response from invited black countries has been en thusiastic. Guyana, Trinidad and Tobago, Cameroons, Ghana, Ivor' Coast, Niger, Nigeria, Senegal, Lesotho, Swaziland, Tanzania, and Uganda will par ticipate. Other black nations anticipate go-ahead instruc tions from their governments. "Resource-wise, black na tions possess the richest areas of the world,” Jones amplified. “Science and technology are the only ingredients presently in short supply, Black Americans, while having no meaningful sov ereignty, possess the_tec.hnq-_ r- ■mi- -rrmr'-rr n innini iii K*p y©ur Caf • BAITESIES A* _ ® AUTO ACCESSORIES /LaTJ ® LUBRICATION OFFICIAL y y# Licensed k Inspection Station DUNN’S ISSO SERVTiCENTER See Us For Complete Car Care!

We won’t waste valuabe development time or. crude liquid oxygen systems of the type the U. S. presently employs,” Dr. Donald Cotton, a reseach chemist with theo ries involving surface pheno mena published in the Journal of Physical Chemistry, ex plained at the press confer ence. “Raw nuclear fuel is in Guyana and the Congo (Leopo ville). Cement producing capac ity for building vapor diffusion installations for enrichment and atomic piles for breeding is in Senegal and the Ivory Coast. Ferrous, lead, the other metals will come from Liberia (iron), Ghana (aluminum), etc. Backup chen.icial industry can readily be developed around the petro leum fields and refineries in Nigeria and in Trinidad and Tobago “Actually, putting black men onto the moon by 1990 will be an opportunity to demonstrate to the world how blacks can use their technology for other than war,” Thomas X. Cornish Washington Chapter Secretary and Research Chemist, added, "l or instance, building roads to connect the raw materials with the power centers will be an important initial step. De foliating chemicals can be used to cut paths through thick bush for railroad beds. Or, perhaps we will purchase napalm bombs from the U. S, and hire black American pilots who are now engaged in killing brown peo ple in Vietnam to burn road ways through the bush during the rainy seasons. “Is this possible?" a reporter ques tioned. “We black Americans have already well demonstrat ed our creative ability with fire on a number of occasions in this country in the past," Corn ish answered with a wry smile. LT. HAYES RECEIVES WING < - . Clatr mce Jacob Hayes, son of Mrs. Lewyn Hayes, 1410 E. Jones Street, received hi; Wi , 0 . ; . at Randolph Air Force Base, Texas, on July 17. Lt.

How will I prove my age when I apply for social security?" This question is frequently ask ed by people nearing retire ment age, states R, A. Flynn, District Manager of the Ra leigh Social Security Office, The Social Security Admini stration can use other docu ments commonly used are: Bap tismal records, family Bibles, insurance policies, school re cords, federal census records, and many other old documents such as your marriage certi ficate or your child's birth certificate that shows your age. The federal census record is frequently used. It is avail able from the Bureau of the Cen sus for a fee. Mr, Flynn states the social security office has forms for ordering census re cords and will -be very glad to assist anyone who needs help requesting a census record. Persons nearing retirement ' age are urged to contact the social security office several months before retirement to see what proofs they will need By obtain big proof of age early, the office will be able to to speed up their claim for social security That Has To Go,’ Says Roberta Alexander OAKLAND, Calif. (NPI)-Black men have been accused of oppressing their women. The ac cusation was made by Roberta Alexander, a female member of the Black Panther party, at a conference sponsored by the party to form a coalition against “fascism” in the United States. The speaker told the parley that Black women “are op pressed as a class; we are op pressed because we are Black, and we are oppressed by Black men. That has to go ” To delighted applause she added: “We have sisters who can shoot. And they can shoot as well as the brothers, and they are not sitting home with babies, either.” White men were also attack ed at the parley. Dr. Marlene Dixon, profes sor of sociology at the Univer sity of California at Los Angeles, said that if white wo men appeared skeptical of male promises of equality, it was be cause of “'the bad faith” de monstrated by white men. "pregnancy" PLANNING AND HEALTH BY MRS. GLORIA RIGGS BEE Dear Mrs. Ribbsbee: I am a teenager an in a good physical condition. My age is 16. All of my teenage life I have kept a rapid pace sexually. I still have sex intercourse two ior three times daily with no ill effects. Is this normal? Mrs. P. L. Dear Mrs. P. L.: “Normal” behavior is ac tivity agreed upon by two grown ups which does not harm either one physically or mentally.- Your sex activity could be normal for you, but may not be normal for a peat many other people. If you've been so active for so long, and you’re only 16, I think a visit to a doc tor would be a good ieda to as sure > r ou that there isn’t some deep mental process involved in your sex activity. * * * Dear Mrs. Riggsbee: I have been married two and-a-half years and the moth er of two children, ages sixteen months .and three weeks. I am much interested in birth con trol, but I am afraid to talk about this with rny husband. Do you have any suggestions? Mrs D. E, Dear Mrs. D. E.: You are quite right to be in terested in birth control. You have your hands full with a toddler and a small baby. You deserve a rest and time to en joy the children you now have before getting pregnant again. I am sure vour husband wants you to be a healthy and happy wife and mother, and it may very well be tiiat he doesn't want any more babies right away either. Therefore, why don't you be gin by telling him how much you love him and how pleas ed you are with your two babies. Then suggest to him that you and he decide how may children you both want and can care for. The next step, of course, is to find out all the methods of fami ly planning (birth control)avail able and choose the one best suited for you and your husband. Your aoctor or the Wake Coun ty Health Department, 3010 New Bern Avenue, can neip you In making your decision. Your letter reminds me of one very important thing about marriage that is often over lqoked--ta!king frankly with one another. There are few things more important for a good mar riage than that the husband and wife be able to ralk freely about the things that are important to each of them. Talking to your husband about this and other matters will help make your marriage even better. You may want to show him this letter as away to get your discussion with him started. * * * Dear Gloria Riggsbee: I read The CAROLINIAN weekly so I decided to see if you can help me with my prob lem. I have three children, ages 3,4, and 5. My best friend has two children three years apart, and another friend has one child 4 years old. Both of these girls tell me I make too big a deal of birth control. One says she douches to keep from getting benefits when they retire. The Raleigh Social Security Office is located at 1122 Hills borough Street The office hours are from 8:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Thursday and from 8;80 a„m, to 7 p.m. on Friday. Carol Henry, another female member of the Black Panther party, charged that women have been victims of mental and physical exploitation “by the color of thir skins and the shape of their breasts”. However, men were not the only ones under fire at the conference. Politicians, busi nessmen, ana policemen were attacked, as expected. So were some left-wingers who seem ingly should have been spared bad treatment. Herbert Aptheker, old-line Marxist theoretician, was hoot ed during his speech, and about 40 members of the Red China oriented Progressive Labor party were ejected from the meeting. pregrant , and the other says her hus band uses “withdrawal.” Why does this work for them, but didn’t work for me.' Mrs. D. C. S. Dear Mrs. C. D. S.: The fact is that some women get pregnant much more easily than others. There are a few women who would only have one or two children even if they nev er used birth control There are others who would have 15 or 20 babies if they didn't use something. Your two friends may well be in the low fertility range. Their methods of birth, control are not very good, and either one may find himself pregnant when she least expects it. On the other hand, you are ap- • pare.ntly in a high fertility range and would probably still be hav ing babies each year if you weren’t using a good method of birth control.

You have proved, * he said, “that black business can succeed, for you are success ful.” “Now,” he continued, “the problem is to survive and to be able to meet competition from the giants of American industry - -the great. companies are seeking qualified blacks and it will be difficult for smaller companies to compete, to ac quire the up to date equipment and systems necessary in or der to hold their own.” Farmer then aserted, “You need federal help.

N. Y.-Motown Record Corporation and its publishing affiliate Jobete Mus ic Company have been award ed an unqualified order in a United States District Court action with the Isley Brothers, according to an opinion handed down by Judge Morris E. Lask er. Justice Lasker denied a pre liminary injunction sought by the Isley Brothers (Ronald, Rudolph and O’Kelly) to keep Motown and Jobete from claim ing ownership of the copyright and master recordings of, “Its Your Tiling,” and “Don’t Give It Away.” The judge declared that the court fully believes the evid ence presented by Motown and that he did not give credence to testimony of witnesses for the Isley Brothers. “The court therefore be lieves the contents of the af fidavits (Motown’s and Jobete’s) I I | See us!

Judge Lasker further stated that ti e plaintiffs (Isley Broth ers) probably would fail to win any verdict if the case were car ried further. “The plaintiffs plainly have not made a clear showing that they will probably succeed in final hearing,” he said. “On the contrary, this court seriously doutbs that plaintiffs could pre vial in the iigbit of the evid ence and contradictions pre viously discussed.” 13
