THE CARbLINlAN-SAT.. SEPTEMBER 15, IH/3-PAGE 2 FACES DEATH (Continued Irom page 1) Percy Daniels has “strong racial overtones," accord ing to Rev. Leon White, director of the United Church of Christ North Carolina-Virginia Commis sion for Racial Justice. Rev. White is an observer in the trial and is at the present time making plans to mobilize a statewide effort against the death penalty. The entire jury contained only one Black woman who was a cousin to the defendant. The State excused her without cause. Dare County, a resort county on the outer banks of North Carolina, has a Black population of less than lU percent of the total population. A brief demonstration was staged by the Black youth in Manteo. N. C. as the trial got underway. The Chief of Police declared a state of emergency and as quick as the picket signs appears they vanished. Ral lies on behalf of William Percy Daniels have been staged nightly at the Free Grace Disciple Church. Rev. Leon White is the chief organizer of the rallies and demonstrations on behalf of W'illiams Daniels. Black citizens charge that the indictment of rape and kidnap against Daniels is an attempt on the part of the white leaders in Manteo. N. C. to discourage mixed dating. In terracial dating is a growing concern of many white people in this small resort town of Manteo. Seven jurors were excused for cause by presiding Judge Perry Marlin of North Hampton County, because the jurors staled that they could not vote for the death penalty under any circumstances, Daniels is being defended by John Wilkerson. a prominent white attorney from Washing ton. N. C. Wilkerson seconded the nomination of Sen. Barry Goldwater for presidency in 1964 in the National Republican Convention. •'There are five men on death row at Central Prison in Raleigh, all are Black." said White, The Commission for Racial Justice plans to call a statewide conference against the death penalty during the month of October. “The lieath penalty law in North Carolina is more stringent.' White went on to say, “since the U. S. Supreme Court declared the N. C. Capital Punishment I..aw unconstitutional." Later (he State Supreme Court validated the taw by nulifying a section to recommend meres which automatically resulted in life imprisonment. First degree murder, fir.st degree burglary. rajH'. and arson now all carry the death penally upon conviction. White claims that the law gives the State solicitor too much power over a ilefendant. A defendant commonly facing the possibility of a death penalty commonly eii'ers into plea bargaining, that is pleading guilty to a charg.* which he did not commit m order to avoid the possibility ot facing death. •'That unjust practice must be stopped."

The Baptist Convention, USA is the parent convention of Negro Baptists. In his acceptance speech. Dr. Jackson told the delegates: “The depletion of our natural resources and the tragic Watergate struggle are God's way of telling us to put moral content into our lives. “God wills to save us. but if he can’t save us with plenty, he will visit us with famines, floods and other privations that will bring us to our knees.

Moseley, in the main address, chided the different orders about their regalia, but also admonished them that Prince Hall was imbued with a burning desire that those who came after him, no matter with what they were identified with, would remem ber that the mind was the measure of the roan and that he should always use it to make brotherhood a reality not in words and signs, but in deeds.

Red Springs Rites Set For City’s Edward Wade ^ Places Baptists Give $50,000 LOS ANGELES - The National Baptist Convention, That tireless little worker -- and frequent pest -- the ant has been busy since spring began and by now may have become a nuisance. If he has, there’s some thing you can do about it. Recommended ti t- ments of infested areas CEUi remove ant problems in or around the home, according to North Carolina State University eTctens ion entomologi st s. Most kinds of ants are easily controlled. You may find a nest of them in the lawn or garden, under the front steps or walkway, in foundation walls or in any number of places. lA^ile the ants generally aren't hEirmful, they can be hard to live with — particularly if they get into the kitchen and try to share your food. Control should start with good sanitation, suggests Dr. H. £. Scott, KCSU extension entomol ogist.
