C„ SATURDAY, JULY 10, 1071 AREA DRUGS ' (CONTINUED PROM PAGE S) ly used as an office for the Clan cy-Theys Construction Com pany and was donated to the or ganization by Mr. Clancy for $1 per month. He ife lias a full-time paid house director, 10 volunteers and a number of parents from the community who offer their assistance. The staff members at lie Ife are trained and experienced in making recommendations for those seeking aid in kicking the habit. Medical training ses sions are conducted in order that staff members may ade quately handle any emergencies. ; Additional personnel in the •form of physicians, psyc h i a jtrists and psychologists is a- A-ailable along with the support ;oi Raleigh hospitals. Many of the staff members are former .users thdmselves and can usu ally do more to help a person than those who have never ex perienced drugs, Miss Horton fcaid. ; We try to get and keep tfie former users involved in the program. !■ During the.course of our ex istence we have directly as sisted 4r» individuals who have been on heroine for a year or more, Miss Horton said. Since March 19, 1971, the House of Life has received more than seven hundred phone calls. One hundred and thirty-nine cal lers requested and received in formation regarding drug users and abuse. Hghty-four calls concerned legal advice and assistance. Four hundred and seventy-three came from parents concerning their children involved in the program. The concept of creating drug houses in Raleigh originated with a group of concerned white parents who wanted to do some thing about the more recent phe nomenon of drugs in the afflu en white community. They therefore established a crisis intervention house at 710 Mc- Cullock St. here. Miss Horton was hired on an initial part time basis as a con sul, ant to black users. She later asked for money to start aposi 7 five program in the black com munity. Black awareness had to be pointed out to replace the glam orous drug culture, and invol vement is the only answer, she declared. Miss Horton therefore became a fulltime worker when the black house was opened in March. When we moved in we were given $250 for repair work. The windows were broken, there was no toilet, dirt was all over the place and a lot of work had to be done, she said. Anyone who enters the facility will realize the work which has been accomplished as day by day the place takes shape. The win dows are fixed, there is a coke machine in the rear, couches and beds are available to those who jorae in to crash, a fan is of ten running, and recently a da shiki factory was begun which turns out about five rolies per da\ for sale in the Raleigh area. The house has many programs which are designed for the us er and those he comes in con tact with most often. There are no terminal programs, said Miss Horton, since those who come to He Ife are sub jected to rap and sensitivity ses sions on every Tuesday night, aided by a black psychiatrist. Another part of lie Ife is the educational sessions in the com munity. Former users are in vited to churches and other or ganizations to familiarize peo ple with «what it's like to l>o hooked, and what drags -UG all about. There is also an anonymous Everything For...

Parents are educated on the pro blems of drugs and a dialogue between parents and users (who are often their children helps break down the gap between the alcohol generation and the drug generation. This meet ing is open to any Interested parents. 1 He Ife also offers a job ser vice conducted from 2 p.m. until four o'clock every Wed nesday. The service tries to place those who come through the house in jobs at a later time. But the problems are still a part of the house’s operatto.m At the present time we're tryl-* ing to get a medical dispensory whereby we will have the means of knowing whether users are taking medicines with habit forming dmgs in theffo, Miss Horton continued, and by July 15, the Board of Directors of the house might not have fur ther operational funds. The whole lie Ife opera tion might have to be cut in half thereby bringing the 24- hour per day schedule down to half a day. This was the major reason why the Drug Action Committee went before the city council hoping to involve the city In financially backing the two centers. The response to their pro posals was rather cool even though the facts showed that a beginning heroine user supports a daily habit of about S2B. This totals several thousand dollars over a years time. This money often comes from stealing, prostitution, burgulary and other criminal activity which in turn economically strangles businesses and eventually cau ses a rise in prices for the con sumer. The House of Life is active and those Involved hope the coni n'unity will lend its support to this dreaded problem which snuffs out lives in every gheto and in every age bracket. The problem might be nearer each and e.very Raleigh citizen than he or she realizes. The Psychedelic Shack might be right Inside your own front door. LAWYERS END (CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1) Judicial Council. According to Attorney Donald Stocks, Executive Director of the National Bar Foundation, approximately 150 Black judges, 100 Black law professors and OEO Legal Service attorneys, and more than 750 NBA prac titioners are expected to at tend the historic “coming to gether of the Black legal com munity.'’ Stocks said, “The idea of bringing into the organization of NBA all elements of the Black legal community provides anew kind of unity and strength to NBA. The potential for program activity, relative to the Black judge and lawyer and to the Black community, is multiplied. “Black lawyers and judges have come to realize that they have a constant fight to main tain whatever rights we have un der the law and it is only by bringing Black judges, practi tioners, law professors, poverty lawyers, and even Black govern ment lawyers together can we effectively develop strategies to force the legal system to re spond promptly and equitably to all underprivileged people,” Stocks said. At the NBA Convention on Wednesday, August 5, all groups, the judges, practition ers, law professors and poverty lawyers will meet in a unique plenary session to discuss all aspects of “Racism and the Law.” •‘From these discussions,” Stocks said, “we expect a sym posium to bo published in the Howard University Law Journal and other leading law journals across the country. These pub lications would lie documented by actual case experiences and would form the basis for con certed effort to eliminate some of these instances of racism.” Among the participants in the “Racism and the Law” plenary session are Derrick A. Bell, Professor of Law, Harvard U niversity Law School; Atty. Janies D. Montgomery, of Chi cago; Honorable Robert M. Dun can, Justice, Ohio Supreme Ct.; Harry T.

Good news - or lack of it - on the international scene was the subject of Miss Pauline Frederick’s address. I prefer to report good news, she said, as I am sure most of rriy colleagues would. I would like to report, nut on a continuing arms race, but the good news of a race be tween the United States and the Soviet Union and between the United States and the Peoples Republic of China to mean ingful negotiations on all is sues that might lead to con flict, Miss Frederick said. She said she would also like to report the good news that foreign policy was framed not on the basis of whether a na tion might go Communist, but on whether that nation is attempting to overcome hunger, poverty, illness, ignorance, ra cial, economic and social in equality among its people. Other good news Miss Freder ick said she would like to re port: That an ally is rewarded with economic help if it tries to ac commodate differences rather than arm itself to fight. --The revitalized faith in fun damental human rights, the dig nity and worth of all people, social progress and increased standards of living around the world. --That all members of the U nited Nations had decided to live up to the U.N. charter and not use force or the threat of it against any natjon.and settle all disputes by peaceful means.
