WASHINGTON—'Hiom pro fessional management services that have been saving large cor porations thousands of dollars each year have at last found their way down to the man who runs the little shop on HOLLOWAY Main Street USA. General Business Services, Inc., a national counseling firm which specializes in helping small business and professional people, has appointed John T. Holloway as Associate Director for Durham and Durham County. Baaed on the established fact that success in any busi ness is dependent upon how the owners keep their records, one of the services provided by GBS is a unique record system that eliminates most of the drudgery traditionally required. N.Y. Black Republicans Criticize Nixon's Y. Isles Appoiontment NEW YORK - Horace Carter, State Chairman New York Caucus of the National Council of Concerned Afro- American Republicans said his organization was critical of Pre sident Richard M. Nixon for not appointing a Native Gover nor of the Virgin Islands. A telegram has been sent to Nixon. In a Resolution adopted by the Caucus last Sunday, Carta 1 said Nixon could have taken two courses of action. Appointed a Native Black Virgin Island or Appointed a Says Blacks are Held to Lower Paying Jobs WASHINGTON- When the U. S. Equal Employmeht Opportunity Commission wound up its recent three-day public hearings in Los Angeles the record was clear: Blacks Spanish Surnamed Americans and women are barred from employment or held to the lower paying jobs in the area's major industries. Also made clear was EEOC's determina tion to change this picture as the comminiasioners exposed blatant violations of Title VII of the 1964 Civil Rights Act, the Federal Govern ment's anti-discrimination em ployment law. In the movie production where the Commission found "clear evidence" of a pattern or practice of discrimination, EEOC agreed on the spot to recommend the first industry wide suit by the U. S. Depart ment of Justice against virtually the entire motion picture and Its craft unions. EEOC Chairman L. Alexan der, Jr., pointed out that motion picture Industry plays • critical role in influencing public opinion. "Any company that take* equal employment seriously la able to hire quali fied blacks and Spanish Sur named Americans from this ana's rich reeourcea," he stated. Unless movie producer* hive a workforce repreeentattve of the nation, they are "not In a position to project what our country la" Alexander told Arthur Schaefsr, of Warner Brothsra/7 Arts. When this witness toM of meetings held with minority Alsxandsr said EEOC "give* m Juteta lor dinners, awards, tMetfegs attended, etc." Additionally, the small busi ness owner who subscribes to GBS will have access to a top flight tax staff for consultation, gudiance, and preparation of business and personal income tax returns. Holloway claims that since GBS keeps tab on the thousands of new tax rul ings passed each year, it is often possible to effect tax savings which the average busi nessman would have no way of knowing about. It has been reliably estimat ed, Holloway said, that seven out of ten tax returns filed are overpaid because the tax payer doesn't know the maxi mum benefits and deductions he is entitled to take under current tax laws. GBS says it is striving to cut down on these business fatalities by providing proper management records. Holloway, a native of Dur ham, is 36 years old. He attend ed Mill Grove High School (now Merrick - Moore High School); he went into military service Nobember 1951 and was honorably discharged in June 1955. He is an Accoun tant, having graduated from Durham Business College. He is married to the former Linn Elmore, also a native of Dur ham. They have three children. The Holloways reside ta 205 East Geer Street, which is also the business address. Before entering his own business, Holloway was a machinist at Wright Machinery Company, Durham. Black American. Carter also said that most Black Republicans in New York State supported this posi tion. He said the leadership of his group had received hun dreds of calls and offered of support of the resolution which is as follows: "Be it resolved that the New York State Caucus of the National Council of Concerned Afro-American Republicans criticize President Richard M. Nixon for not appointing a Black Republican Governor of the Virgin Islands or a leading Black Republican with a re cord of service to the Party and to the Black race from the United States. Be it further resolved that there is sufficient talent among Black Republicans who could have filled the position of Governor of the Virgin Islands in an efficient and progressive manner. That since the popula tion of the Virgin Islands is predominantly Black such a person urged by this organiza tion would have created under standing of the problems of the Virgin Islands and work to ward effective solutions. Be it conclusively resolved that in the spirit of this organi zation Nixon help bring Black people into the Republican Party by recognizing their worth and appointing them to , positions of trust, influence and responsibility." James R. Lawson was ap pointed Chairman of Resolu tion Drafting Committee. Fred Knight, Co-Chairman, and Nat Singleton, Coordinator. House Kills Broadcast Notice The North Carolina House Thursday killed a bill that would have permitted radio and tele vision stations to shsre with newspapers the money to be earned from carrying legal noti ces.

Governor Scott received eight of the scouts in his office Thursday and gave his blessing to the campaign to clear litter from the highways. The eight scouts presented the Governor with some 15,000 signatures from citizens who pledged to help keep the high ways clean. There was a tragic note to the presentation of the signatures. The Governor saw that one of them was by 13-year-oiri Jackie Stone of Wallace, who was kidnaped while on the way home from school last Tuesday. She was murdered and her body was found Wednesday She had signed the cleanup pledge a short time before she left school Tuesday. "That may have been the last time she ever signed her name," Governor Scott said. 5,000 Scouts Dick Auger of Goldsbcro, scout executive of the Tuscorora Council, said that 200 troops with a total of about 5,000 scouts would participate in the cleanup campaign in Wayne, Johnston, Sampson and Duplin counties. "Each troop will clean up a mile or more of highway," said Auger. After being collected, the trash will be piled up at various points where signs will indicate the project. The trash piles wilf then be collected and disposed of by the State Highway Department, Auger said. The cleanup campaign is scheduled to begin at 10 a.m. and some of the principal highways where the scouts will work will be U. S. 70 in the Goldsboro vicinity, U. S. 117 also in the Goldsboro area, and old U. S. 301 south of Smithfield. The boys will work through; much of the afternoon, Auger i said.

"In the past," Wall said, "40% of taxpayers have waited until the last two weeks to file their returns.

Wall also said that error • rate skyrockets In the returns filed during the last few days. "Those who rush to file their returns at the last minute make many more errors than those who file early and ghre them selves plenty of time to check and double-check their returna for accuracy." he aakL Wall said that he waa hope ful that all North Oarollniana would complete thafr tax fifing chorea before April 1 this year. bin to kaap a public oflfcur from gpmdfng "any amoaat * mouejr to wanted to" la brattfl carting a ptrbHc notice. j DURHAM, NORTH CAROLINA rr.

Sirhan, now in its 12th week, after calling 29 witnesses in an attempt to save the 25-year-old Arab from the gi chamber for the slaying of Sen. Robert F. Kennedy. The trial, which started Jan. 7, is expected to go to the jury next week after closing ar guments. The 'inal defense witness, called at the afternoon session, was Dr. George deVoes, a psychologhist from the Universi ty of California at Berkeley. During the morning session, Dr. Bernard Diamond, a psychiatrist from UCB, wound uv his testimony by describing the story that Sirhan wandered into the Ambassador Hotel in a seif-induced trance as "absurd and preposterous" but neverth eless true. "To me, this is a script which would never be acceptable in a Class B movie but yet these are the classical psychiatric find ings," he said. At another point, Diamond, a in-school program operating in Johnston County, N. C. Rose has worked as a part time school maintenance aide since September, 1967. Since the death of his father, a far mer, two years ago, Rose has used his $1.30 per hour wages to help support his mother and meet school expenses. Standi is the son of a retired Navy chief. He enrolled in the Youth Corp's 10-week summer program in 1968 and assisted in general maintenance and preparation of the school plant for the fall term.

Seward, University of Southern California psycholo gist, backed the findings of two earlier witnesses, stating that Sirhan showed "a clear case of schizophrenic reaction of the paranoid type." Dr. Seward reviewed mental and personality tests made on Sirhan by two other psycholo gists, Drs. Martin Schorr and j Roderick Richardson. Associate prosecutor John Howard drew from the witness an admission that Sirhan's reactions to some tests were normal. She said, however, that the finding of mental Illness was baaed on not just one bat on at least five tests. In discussing Sirhan's reac tion to a picture test—called the ' Thematic Apperception teet— she said his response may have indicated "latent homoeexuali ty" since he was confused aboat the sex at one of the figures Ishown.
