I was asked whether or not I made deliveries to Negroes and I replied that I did, except on hoUdays-wben I made deliveries to no one, ei ther white or Negro. I empha- *ucd to the person on the other end of the telephone line that I bad amse very goad friends Pvt. Samuel Becton, ton of Mr. and Mrs. Joseph W. Becton, Sr., 1914 Cecil Street, Durham, has completed eight weeks of basic training at the Replace ment Training Center, Camp Gordon, Go. During his training, he re ceived instruction in infantry tactics and weapons, and other subjects designed to prepare the individual for his militon; du ties. He is now ready to continue on Army specialist’s school. among the Negroes, and that I enjoyed my Negro business and appreciated it. The conversation ended pleasantly, with each of us to the best of my knowledge saying “Goodbye”. 1 didn’t "ex plode”, as was stated in the ar ticle in the Carolina Times er roneously. The Carolina Times article contains several positively un true statements. In the first place 1 pointed out expressly that my additional help for the holidays was not for delivery purposes, I never said “I don’t deliver to niggers”, or any words to that effect, as stated In the Carolina Times. Further, I never said anjrthing to the ef fect that my Negro customers “order Qowera but when they arrive ref Use to pay for them”. 1 would have no occasion to say something like that for it is not true. My Negro customers have a good credit record and I sell to them just as quickly as 1 would to white customers. On the contrary I did say that I had some good Negro customers. Naturally I did not say “I have some good nigger customers, but I make them come down and get their flowers and pay for them in advance.” Actually I sell to .many of my - customers, both white and Negro, on credit. If it bwomes at all material I can submit a list of various Negro customers to whom I have pre viously sold on credit. Obvious- ly whether as to white or Negro customers, I would consider their credit rating if I were sell ing on credit, but I can’t recall any customer whofn 1 have turned down when a credit de livery was requested, and only one Negro customer has “beat” me out of a debt during the time that I have been in business, which is a better record than my white customers. The whole point is that I would have no reason to offer a free and-false insult to one of my best group of customers. One of my Negro customers immediately recognlzzed that the Carolina Times article con cerning me was false when it appeared in that paper and phoned me abolit it. I might otherwise not have seen the ar ticle inunediately because, like many white and Negro inhabi tants of Durham, I do not sub scribe to the Carolina Times. Naturally I wish to correct any false impression, and I feel that I am entitled to an immediate apology from the Carolina Times, and I demand a retrac tion by that paper., I might add that' I know of no reason why the “Advertising Manager” of the Carolina Times might have any grudge towards me, but the telephone connec tion was not so poor that it could make what 1 actually said sound like what she said I stated to her, and there seems little pos- Rev.

My many Negro friends wHI know that the C^aroUnav Times has printed • gross lie. I de mand that to the maximum ex tent possible the Carolina Timea take steps to correct the mis conception that may have been created among people who do not know me, and I request that this affidavit be published in ftiU and in a place equally con spicuous as that where the false charge was made.

Martin was lowered into the well and fastened a rope im- der the shoulders of Mrs. Tatum, who had rem^ed shoulder- deep in water for over an hour. Lack of oxyg&x at one time nearly caused Bifartin to faint during the venture. When the pair reached the top, Mrs. Ta- timi was rushed to a hospital for treatment. Bums on Martin’s ‘T’ shirt showed signs of fric tion made by his shoulders against the narrow curbing. No information has been learned of how Mrs. Tahim fell into th6 well. Her predlcar was discovered by Mrs. Adan whom she was visiting, af^ Mrs.' Adams heard her go on the back porch during the nigh Martin remained calm duri! the entire rescue, but admitted afterwards that the going was a little rough at times.

I do not know the name of the woman who called me, but I do know that the easiest way to injure any good will among Ne gro customers is to make a false charge that 1 am anti-Negro in viewpoint. No matter what is done by way of retraction or aiwlogy, a mrniber of people wiU always retain the impres sion that the charge was true. Anybody who makes a false .charge or helps make such a false charge is participating in one of the most unhappy proces ses in American life to^y, and I regret that the Carolina Times has engaged in the same process with reference to me. Further, the untrue statements that have just been published about me in the Carobna Times are not of the sort that will encourage good relations between white persons and Negroes. After all, if a person like me who has al ways enjoyed good relations with Negro citizens is to be ‘smeared” this way, it is going to beyiard to draw tighter the BIG VALUE SURPRISES S $ WHITE • BUCK PATINT • FUOHT BLUE 0 BASQUE RED « GINGER ShMs 4 fe 10, AAtB ^Qtilun SHOES# 119 West Main Street msss.
