once known as “one of the worst

One psychiatrist at the hos

“George Fide: was ahead of
his time. Today he’d be on
TV carr;. ing an anti-war pla

However, author Grady notes,
in the same month that Elder
was ordered to the as.!um,
Hollywood actor Lew Ayres was
sent to a C.O. work camp on
the West Coast. “George El

“But it’s too late now. I'm

...And 1 didn’t want to fight for
a country that treated Indians
and black men like America.'
1 lder, who is part-Negro,
part-Cherokee Indian, told the
Federal judge that the U E owed
him $346 tor his Indian rights.
When he had finished talking,
he was sent to Ibbervy and,

raise them.”
The SCI C president said the

the process of selecting dele
gates to national political con
ventions, and in local, state and
national elections.
Abernathy stated that “ilte
arithmetic oi power” could add
up to victories for progressive
forces in Li 72. This arithme
tic, he explained, could include
a political majority of black
people, other minorities, yoyng
people, ‘‘and all other people
concerned about justice and
peace.”
He warned that “no politician,
no candidate, unpolitical Party”
should be allowed to avoid the
issues or “take us sot grain
ed.”
Dr. Abernathy also proposed
a “political agenda” which
would be taken to candidates •
in 1972 with a demand that they,
respond to it. Tin agenda in

of the Prince Hall thirty-third
degree masons and some 185
candidates who were later ele

degree.
“The conflict in Viet Nam
created unprecedented divi
sions in this country. Not even
the divided opinions expressed
over the Civil War anywhere
near reached the proportions of
the present crisis,” he said
while pointing out that “in the
war between the states, the divi
sion was for the most part sec
tional. The self interest pro
tection phase predominated
mostly In the slave states or
those with vested interests in
the states of human bondage
The present discontent is not
sectionalized, but evident in all
sections and encompasses old
and voting alike.”
Dr. Lewis pointed out that the
economy and employment crisis
should claim our immediateat
tenMon, He emphasized that un
employment is at its highest
peak and it continues to rise.
“Whether you know it or not
we are fast reaching the place
where fifty, percent of the popu
lation of our country will re
quirt- some kind of assistance
in order to live,” he said,
while indicating that a recent
public press release classified
three broad groups of im
poverished people-“the unem
ployed ho were displaced by
the recession and technology;
those who have always been
poor, and people who are work
