THE CJUtOLDTCAN RALEIGH, N C.. SATURDAY. JANUARY 2. 1871 2 DETECTIVES (COSTIWI’B) FROM 3*AQI. j) Is Willie "Pig” Smith, 30, 405 Dakar Street. Others facing these charges include Miss Sylvia Ann Young, 21 306 Pugh Street; Miss Bar bara Jean Knight, 28, Brooklyn, N. Y.; Alphonso Sherrn&U Bol ling, 23, Richmond, Va„; Junius Richard Brown, 19, Richmond; Miss Brenda Brown, 23, 206 Pugh Street; and Miss Barbara Ann Edwards, 26, New York Ci ty. The arrests were made by Raleigh Detectives B. E. Tuck er, J. L. Barbour, C. J. Wil liams and Patrolman D. W. Dalmas. Bond for each of the seven was set at S2OO by Magistrate Charles Poole, pending a hear ing soon on the charges in Wake District Court. BUY HOME (CONTINUED FROM PAGE I) yor of Fayette. The 17-year-old Green was killed by a bullet fired by State Police while leaving a local bus on his way home from work during the disorders at Jackson State. He was more than 100 yards from the scene of the disorders at the time he was shot. Green was one of the main sources of support of his mother and eight brothers and sisters. Two weeks prior to James Green’s death, the home in which ids family resided burned to the ground accidental ly. The home was insured for only $l5O. The twin tragedies which fell upon the Green family prompted the Board of Directors of the Medgar Evers Fund to ap propriate funds to purchase the new home for the Green family. In announcing purchase of the home and transfer of the deed to the mother of James, Mayor Evers said: "We wanted both to demonstrate to the in nocent victims of the Jackson State College disaster that A tnericans of both races deplore the indiscriminate use of force against unarmed black college students and to do this tn a manner consistent with Med gar’s non-violent approach to life. Clearly, the Green family needed a decent home more than anything else so we chose this way to demonstrate out con cern,” he added. MORE BANKS (CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1) , but in response to the bank ing needs of communities where these banks are located. "With rare exception, Black banks are typically located in the nation’s ghettos,'’ Dr.lrons observed, "If one accepts the premise that the general popu lation needs a commercial bank that is convenient and em pathetic to its financial and economic needs, should the Black population aspire to any less?" Dr. Irons said he a greed that the maior banks could better meet the needs of the ghetto comm unity, but he asked, "Have they done it?” "Perhaps to seme degree, they have," he answered, "but the preponderance of evidence suggests that the major banks, by nature or by policy, devote a relatively small amount to their loan portfolios to small business, Irrespective of race.” Dr. Irons emphasized a series of fundamental actions which, he said, must, be taken to improve the strength and viability of Black banks. "In the first place, public policy must never revert to the pre-1963 period when Blacks were systematically discourag ed from seeking banking char ters. Secondly, the fundament al economic unit of the Black community, i. e., the family, must ultimately be given the opportunity to earn on a parity with its white counterpart, thereby eliminating the 40 per cent gap between these two groups. "Thirdly, the federal, state and local governments must be gin to utilize Black banks as depositories in the same man ner as other banks are used. Fourthly, the major corpora tions, who, through the sale of their products in the minority community drain resources from these communities, should consider using minority banks as depositories. This would serve as a eounterforce to the continual wealth out-flow from these areas, a phenomenon which I term a chronic balance of payment drain,” EXPO PLANS (CONTINUED FROM PAGE I) and throughout the country with black ownership or those con cerns throughout the country Interested in making a posi tive contribution to the black market.

ECONOMICS (CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1) en the community ” Doss ex plains in pointing out the dif ference between ICRIF’s phil osophy and that of Black capi talism. "Those guys who want to make it as individual entrepreneurs some times run smack up a gainst this philosophy of ours arid we run smack up against them and we have a real tug of war,” he says. "But If we’re going to stay in there with them, if we're going to be part of what they're doing, they're going to be working to really develop the Black community and not just do their own thing.” ICBIF attributes Us founding to "a SIOO,OOO misunderstand ing.” Following the civil dis ordes of 1967, a coalition group called the New Detroit Com mittee was formed to help the Black community. Another group, composed of some of Detroit’s Black leaders was offered SIOO,OOO by the Com mittee to build Black busi nesses. ’i ne group turned down the offer, charging that there were strings attached. Some of those who had refused the money organized ICBIF, which will re ceives its funds from the city’s power structure but makes all decisions on how the money is to be spent. Financing of Penmuth. Inc., a large-scale metal stamping plant and of Global Gourmet, Inc., a meat processing com pany, was arranged by ICBIF; they are the type of large-scale businesses which ICBIF feels will have a real impact on the economy. Global Gourmet plans to set up free franchises for Blacks who want to go into business for themselves. Manisee Bos well, the company’s president, says the franchises will allow a Black man "to go back into his own community, become his own manager, to become his own boss, and setting himself up in business with the help of Global Gourmet, and becoming a pro fit-making entity.” OFFICIALS (CONTINUED FROM PAGE I) myself. We discussed the matter at length with some very conflicting information from Mr. Huggins.” To the best of my knowledge, the only thing that I was able to determine was that Officer Rountree had stated that what ever force and action that he had to use and did employ at the time to carry out the arrest in volving Mr. Huggins on the day in question was absolutely necessary. I was unable to gath er anything of any strength to contradict what Officer Roun tree lias stated. Due to the strongly conflict ion stories that Mr. Huggins lias told, I feel that this matter definitely should be heard in court and as soon as possible.” "I was unable to .make any definite determinations where Officer Rountree was guilty of any misconduct in carrying out this arrest. "This officer was at this lo cation in answer to a call when this encounter accurred, and we have talked toother disinterest ed parties about the incident and were unable to substantiate any of Mr. Huggins’ accusa tions. HUGGINS (CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1) driver’s hand, and the car hit the curve, then went down the yard between the house and a tree there.” Mr. Huggins said he then went to the house and knocked on the lady’s door to use her phone and to fell her what had happened. He called Acme Cab for a wrecker. Officer Floyd Lee Rountree arrived around the same time at the scene. Huggins had 3 German Shep herds and a Siberian Huskie dog in his car. After Huggins told Rountree what had ahppened, the cop told him that he was placinghim un der arrest, but not what the ar rest was for. Huggins said ‘okay.’ He then let the cop search him, then handcuff him from behind. Then Wesley "Boobie” Clarkson came up with the Acme wrecker. Hug gins said he then told Rountree that he had to take the dogs home because they might harm some one. The cop told him that he could not do this. Huggins said, "I got the dogs out of the car. 3 on a leash and one free. Then I turned and started towalke away-handcuff ed. He said ‘You can't take the dogs home,’ We never scuffled. When I walked away, Rountree said, ‘1 will kill you and the dogs! - as I was walking on down Fowle Street, he fired twice. At first, I didn’t know I was shot and I kept walking. Wesley Clarkson tried to hold me to keep mo from going any furth er. "I got free of him and took the dogs on home. I gave them to a young boy who knows the dogs and ’he carried them in to the house. At this time, a white police sergeant came up. He took me back to Manly Street, where Rountree’s car was and transferred me from his car to the cop’s car, at which time Rountree hit me with a nignt stick (on the back of Huggins' head)” and spray ed Mace into my face, trans ferred me into Rountree’s car. "From there, I was taken to Wake Memorial and refused treatment. From the hospital, I refused to go back to police headquarters (magistrate’s of fice) with Rountree. Captain James M. Stell was at hospital when I arrived. When 1 finally came back to the magistrate’s office, I was handed three war rants-resistlng arrest, assault on an officer and driving under the influence. I was then taken upstairs without being given a chance to make a telephone call. I was kept in jail fron 9:30 p.m. Christmas night until 2 a.m. the next day where I was served a P. I. warrant by my bondsman.” A Newsman saw blood on Huggins’ blue trousers and two holes in his black leather coat where bullet entered and emerged. Seat of Isis trousers were ruined. "I had been drinking,” Hug gins told a CAROLINIAN news man, "but I was not even high,, I was struck on the back of my head and shoulders and upper Part of my body with that black jack, I was also dragged and skinned by knees, back and a toenail wa= tbrri off. Man, I couldn't even sleen last night” (Tuesday). Mr. Huggins had been shot iri the right side of his back and the upper right thigh. Officer Rountree was using the gun of another officer as his had been stolen a few hours earlier. E. PALMER (CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1) teaching profession. For this endeavor S4.S million has been appropriated under the Educa tion Professions Development Act. For those persons who de sire to enter other fields, a nev. $200,000 training program is being developed under the Manpower Development Act. "In my personal opinion, it is mighty "generous” of the Ni xon Administration to afford so much money to perpetuate dis crimination. The very fact that this offer is being made to black educators with no reference to preventive action against this practice of unfair, unethical, and discriminatory dismissal of black educators, in Itself sup ports and perpetuates the dis missal of blacks. No evidence has been produced which lays the basis for the conclusion, "that black educators dis missed are incompetent; there fore, need retraining.” To the contrary, the courts have ruled in many cases in North Caro lina that the dismissal of blacks was racially discriminatory and" either ordered re-instatement or back pay and damages. "The real cause of the elim ination of black educators in the South is due to attitudes, attitudes based on myths of black inferiority and white su premacy. Many whites fear the idea of black teachers having access to white minds and black administrators having super vision over white teachers and white children. The act of dis missing black educators then be comes one of pure discrimina tion under the excuse or guise of incompetence. "The Federal Government Is often accused of wasting much of the taxpayers dollars, but never, In rr.y estimation, has a bigger waste of public funds been publicly acclaimed. If the current administration wants to help this society, then it had best get on with the problem of implementing the established law of the land and desegregate the schools. These millions of dollars can'best be spent aiding in attit u dinal changes of boards of educa tion, administrators, and com munities where desegregation has to occur. "The black teachers in North Carolina and throughout the South view this program as neg ative and resent its implica tions. The institutions of our State, the State Department of Public Inst ruction and the S'ate Board of Education should he* equally embarrassed and humiliated. The program ad vanced by the Nixon Adminis tration sayte, in essence, that our teacher training institu tions graduate illiterate teach ers and the certification stand ards set up permit uhqulaified teachers to enter the pro fession. I have always felt that our teacher training programs and certification standards were ahead of most States in many repsects. This does not include the present use of the NTE, however. “After the black educator is retrained, then what? He or she will still have to face the same two problems: 1. the attitude of racial discrimination, and 2. the quota system (the maxi mum number of blacks to be hired in a given situation). It behooves the black educators to continue to fight for their rightful place in the current ed ucational arena. They are al ready qualified to teach chil dren black and white. After all, it was the black teachers' par ents or grandparents who took care of the white children from, infancy and therefore are bet ter qualified to teach both races. "The present administration is not fooling anyone. It is not fulfilling its commitment to the South to slow down or stop school desegregation, because the courts will not allow it, and neither is it Implementing the Civil Rights Act of 1964- ’65. AWARENESS (CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1) the world can repair the damage to Black children which results if their parents neglect the task of teaching them how to handle the prejudice of others, de clared Drs. Alvin F. Pous saint of Harvard and James P. Comer of Yale in the January issue of Redbook magazine, re leased recently. "Black parents are In the delicate position of having to de fine for themselves appropriate responses to the racism in so- Cl ®ty. . .(and) many of us who wish tc protect our children from the trauma of being Black so America have developed cer tain ‘compensatory responses’ (to prejudice),’ the psychiatr ists contended. "For example, recent cam paigns initiated in a number of Black Communities have involved the enrollment of pre schoolers In programs design ed to promote feelings of racial Pride. Most of these programs are good because they present OUr heritage effectively in a well-rounded curriculum. Ho wever, those who teach by rots the slogans of Black dignity ‘l am Afro-American,’ ‘Black is beautiful’--may be too ex- treme tn their approach. It is possible that drilling Black pride into a child’s head is a stereotyped and isolated man ner may actually have the re verse effect." The psychiatrists urged mid dle-class parents in particular to beware of giving their chil dren "exaggerated” rewards. "Sometimes we try ro relieve our own sense of guilt for the burdens imposed on our chil dren by being overgenerousand permissive . . . Bu - mate: ial gifts alone cannot give a child a sense of worth; in fact. the;, may give him a false sense of nower.” Drs. Poussain: and Comer contended that the Black child is more likely to develop a sound sense of his own worth, in a fa mil;, where the dignity of all people is respected. DR.
