Mass Meeting Is Set

The Citizens Coordinating Com

meeting here Thursday nlfti. June

citizens have been urged to attend.
At this meeting, many important
matters ere scheduled to be dis
cussed. Newsletters have been dis
tributed to the majority of Negroes
in this vicinity.

tTtm Citlgeni AesodaUcm to pftodtafc the t* dallar ie on re
cord, according to information in jßi*'daily newspaper, as being
opposed to the continued operation of the Rlehafti B. Harriaon
Public Libfhky. Their reason ia that the main library ia centfsl
tyMigh to serve die entire city except the northwest section.
In a recent survey by a team of library professionals called
in to tell Raleigh its library needs, cast Raleigh was recommended
•• well as northwest Raleigh for branches. A subsequent bond
issue was launched and favorably voted upon for theee recom
mended needs. In fact the site of the Harriaon Library was chosen
at the comar as Bast Lenoir and Rock Quarry Road; and is Still
in the process of procurement.
The CAROLINIAN ia naturally on record to “deraciaHre"
everything used by the public—Harriaon included. This how
ever, does not mean that there should not be a library located m
a predominantly Negro neighborhood sponsored by the city and
operated for the entire public.
We bdieve Raleigh would gain more through following the
bought advice of professional library surveyors titan it would in
curtailing tome of their main recommendation simply because
Harriaon is to be moved to a more convenient location to serve
(•it Rilcigh.
Instead of Harrison, as such there undoubtedly should be a
branch of the main library in some area of east Raleigh; and in
thia branch there should be a department to continue for some
time the much needed personal interest for Negro children by the
library facility
We trust the dty will follow through with ita plans to satisfy
the bond issue for library needs and keep faith with the wishes
of the majority vote on this matter although we appreciate the
keen interest in the economy of the city’s affairs by this group of
prominent citizens who recommend Harriaon'* scrapping.
