Indians Seek Impeachment pt US Interior Secretary PHOENIX, Ariz.-(NPI)-Im peachment of Interior Secretary Walter Hickel is being demand ed by a group of American In dians, who bare reacted angri ly to his treatment that the U. S. is overprotective of Indians. The United Native Ameri cans’ president, Lehman | Brightman, said “Impeach Wal ter Hickel’’ signs were being printed and potions would soon lie circulated by the group’s 8,000 members. “I don’t see how anyone that dum could be appointed,” Brightman said. Hickel, whose department overseas Indian affairs, drew fire for declaring that Indians who can’t hold jobs in cities, ‘•always have that crutch of be ing able to go back” to the re servation, Indians “have to cut the cord,” he said.

Patterson told 37 Winston- Salem State University seniors and members of the school’s faculty and staff last Monday. Patterson, professor'of edu cation at WSSU, spoke at a campus luncheon honoring stu dents expected to complete re quirements for bachelors de crees at the end of the current summer session. The university does not hold a formal summer graduation ceremony. The WSSU summer August Issue Os Sepia Hag Reveals Story Bill Cosby owns Jim Crow apartment houses in Brooklyn: That’s the shocking expose re vealed in the August issue of SEPIA magazine Tipped off by a worker is an Urban League “Open City*' office, SEPIA sent a white investigator to Cosby’s four Brooklyn buildings in search of vacant apartments. He found some. When the black SEPIA investigator showed up shortly afterwards. Housing discrimination is an old story. How many apartments have you gone after that were just render? But finding a top black TV personality, an out spoken racial-philosopher who borders on being a militant, who owns Jim Crowbuildings-that’s a bit much, as the SEPIA arti cle points out, “it isn’t fair to Keep exposing white racism and then ignore a bunch of white -racist buildings just because they’re owned by a black man.” SEPIA’s expose of Bill Cos by’s property policies didn’t de velop quickly. Already in 1968 the tip-off came, but a letter was first sent to Cosby advis ing him of what was going on in his buildings. When no an swer came, however, the maga zine went ahead with its in vestigation so thoroughly that they reproduce a copy of a deed from one of the build ings . The value of Cosby’s four Brooklyn buildings tops $3 1/2- million! As a wrap-up, SEPIA directs a comment directly to Bill Cosby: “You really look ing for some biting social sa tire for your act? Why not show up some day out in south Brook lyn and try to get an apart ment in one of your own build ings!” In the same issue, “The Kind of Men BlacK Women uo For,” part 2 of a nationwide survey which reveals what kind of men our black women are looking for today: favored hair styles. Pictures,‘chart and scienti-’ fically studies story .... will it really help you find the one you’ve been looking for. Like the last line of SEPIA’s story says, ‘‘A gal really can’t af ford to be all that choosy, and neither can a guy. But it's fun trying, huh?” In the same issue, “Oh Hap session ends Friday (Augusts). Speaking on the topic “Good, Best, Better,” Patterson said that if it were up to him he would change the order of the degrees of the word “good” to indicate that “what we think of as our best can usually be made bet,or.” There are too many people with heads full oi facts and wfio look for chances to recite them to show how much they know, he said. “The better man is he who examines all the data before him and decides to accept some and reject other,” Patterson said. He described that man as the one who can see beyond an ac cumulation of facts, the one with foresight, and the one like ly to succeed. He pointed to W. E. Dußois, noted Negro historian and edu cator, as an example worthy of imitation. “Dußois was a man for all seasons,” Patterson said. “He could plan ahead, learn ahead and see ahead. And as a re sult today his stature is grow ing and prriwin?.” MAYORS TALK IT OVER-New York: Cleve land’s Mayor Carl Stokes (L) and New York’s Mayor John Lindsay hold a press conference at Grade Mansion here after they met to dis cuss Cleveland’s efforts to set up a criminal justice coordinating council similar to one in New York, During the conference, Stokes said the’ nation should'put domestic needs ahead of space exploration in setting its priorities, (UPI). pv Day!” and the story of the Edwin Hawkins Singers. Al though. the promoter and dis tributor of the record hit are splitting something like half million dollars, the gospel sing ers are getting small-change. As a result many of them are splitting to go off on their own singing careers. That deep and powerful vocife of Dorothy Mor risson who sang lead for “Oh Happj Day!” lias already flown the coop, SEPIA reveals in Its August issue. She’s signed with another record label to warble on her own, Playboy lias its centerfold of curves to oggle at. SEPIA now has a centerfold too. July SE PIA featured a removale, 2- page color poster showing a scene from the Civil War--the one back in 1863. August: SE IA has a centerfold showing Jim Brown m “100 Rifles”.

Black Groups Halt Construction In Bid For Better Job For Selves CHICAGO - (NPI) - If the buPis ig trades won’t come a round, shut them down. That seems to be the phi losophy of a consortium of Black groups, which has halted most construction work in Black ar eas in an effori to get the building-trades unions to give Black workers a better deal. Specifically sought are the creation of 10,000 apprentice ships for Negroes by the unions, a waiver of pre-apprenticeship tests, promotion of experienced Blacks to foremen, and abolish ment of the union-hall job referral system. That system and other union policies are responsible for keeping the building trades al most exclusively white. of the semester. ' Tayor E. Jones, director of admissions, reports tnat a bout ST>O new students are ex pected with the total enrollment about 1250, slightly Idgher than last year. Space for day or commuting students is still available, Jones said.

Years of petition and pro test have got:,in only token con cess ions and high-sounding statements from the building trades. So the Coalition for United Community Action has come up with what it considers to be a better plan; Stop con struction work in Black area until demands are met. But there are drawbacks to the coalition’s efforts. One project where work has been stopped is Woodlawn gar dens, co-sponsored by The Woodlawn organization, a mili tant Black group. At some construction sites in Black areas, Black workers out-number their white count erparts, making Blacksth.epri mary victims of the coalition’s efforts. And besides, vigilante-like enforcement of racial demands is likely only “> he stage for counter-repression, a “white hacKlasn,” and an und erstandable rejection of “storm -trooper” tactics used by those who would right society’s wrongs. One-W ay Hit CHARLOTTE, -(NPI) - The local Black Solidarity commit tee has worked up a stiff op position to northern-type school desegregation methods that are to be implemented this fall. Charlotte adopted a plan used in Buffalo and Syracuse (New York) areas in which Black schools would be shuttered and thier students “bussed” to white schools. The CBSC is a gainst the plan because bus ing is a one-way proposition-- no whites would be bussed to Black schools. RALEIGH, N. C., SATURDAY, AUGUST 16, 1868 PREGNANCY PLANNING AND HEALTH BY MRS. GLORIA RIGGSBEE Dear Mrs Riggsbee: My wife and I have four chil dren and we definitely don’t want any more. We are both in our middle thirties and we don’t like any of the birth control methods that we have tried. We love each other, but our argu ments about sex are about to split us up.

They say that they have to have an ex amination by a doctor every year. I just don’t understand why they need one unless they are going to have a baby or unless something is wrong I haven’t had an examination since my last baby was born four years ago and I feel fine. Why are doctors so strict a bout yearly exams? Mrs. F. P. Dear Mrs. F. P.: Once a woman gets married and star's having children, she should have a pelvic examina tion once a year without fail. Sometimes changes take place in our todies without our even knowing it, but these are the things which the doctor needs to know/ about in order to pre vent further trouble.
