This position's pri mary responsibility is to im prove the benefits of paibUc bousing," Wheeler said.

Public Housing is intended to provide its tensnts with the same dig nity as anyose else. The fir ing of Tillman represents an affront to the black commu nity. It is asking the Durham community to ignore the trend of thinking of the housing au thority and Its obvious atti tude. not in keeping with the Commission of U.S. Department of Urban Development." According to Wheeler, Till man was the bright spot in the community. The people offer ing the protest called for a revisal of the policies of the housing authority and new guidelines by HUD. The com missions represented at Wed nesday' conference said they were in the initial stages of protest and further actions were not planned at that time. -Cheek (Continued from front page) day Alumni Weekend program.

I hare no regrets over having offered the citizens of Durham my services in the role of leadership as mayor. I did it out of a deep sense of obligation to my city. The voters had a choice.

McKissick Enterprises has acquired presently 2,000 of the projected 5,000 acres of land for Soul City. Harvey B. Gantt, Director of Planning for Soul City dis cussed future plans. According to Gantt, the government, in 1968, passed a law of guaran tee. Under this law, the federal government will guarantee loans to private enterprises of up to 90% of the cost of land development and up to 80% for the acquisition of land. This will enable private sponsors to take part in Soul City without the high risk of failure. The guarantee allows ten yean for development of »tha~ town. Four others ex perimental towns have re ceived the guaranty loan. Soul City will hopefully be the fifth. If the guaranty is ap proved, elevated construction of roads, water, and electricity will begin within four to six months. Gantt discussed the attrac tion of Soul City. He noted that Raleigh or possible Dur ham would have no trouble developing a suburban village die to the fact that the out side town would be able to draw people with the normal propoganda of neighboring shopping centers, theaters, and city services. Soul City, how ever, is fifty miles from Dur ham or Raleigh just off high ways 1 and 158 near Warren ton. It cannot announce neigh boring fringe benefits. Due to this, Soul City will have to be self sufficient. Its* major at traction Is intended to its industrial advantages, Its high paying jobs, and low cost living. The projected 2400 job* will hopefully be reached with in 20 yens. The city will pro vide 30% of low income housing, other cities of this type furnish a maximum of 10% The projected city will offer massive job training pro grams, therefore, producing economic mobility for its in habitants. 13,000 housing units are planned in the first 20 year period. The housing units will vary from one-family units to town houses and garden apartments. People of all income brackets will live mixed throughout the com plex. Warren County is in a de pressed area, similar to an 'under developed* nation or colony. The growth of Soul City will in many ways parallel the growth of some of the emerging nations and will be come an economic asset to the entire region in which it is located. Gantt expressed the senti ments of the Soul City ad vertisements. "All indications are that It will be successful. Neither black nor white America can afford to let this, the alrgest economic under taking ever attempted by blacks in America, fail. Projections by top Ameri can economicst, sociologists, builders, urbanologists and city planners show that there is no question that the deve lopment and construction of Soul City is economically feasible and can be overwhelm ingly successful." Twin Appointments Are Hailed WASHINGTON - Congratula tions have been extended to President Richard Nixon on the appointment of James E. John son to assistant secretary of the Navy for Manpower and Re serve Affairs and Captain Sam uel L Gravely, Jr., to the posi tion of the first black Admiral in the history of the United States Navy. And in conjunction with *he message of congratulations, a request has been made of the President to place a black in Mr. Johnson's vacated spot, as one of the three Civil Service Commissioners. Robert L. White, president of the predominately black Nation al Alliance of Postal and Federal Employees, in making such a re quest with the support of his 45, 000 member organizations, has further requested of the Presi dent to use the full weight of his office to place more blacks into positions of heads of agencies and bureaus, full secretaries, assistant secretaries and under secretaries. White reminded the President that while millions of blacks are dying for democracy in Vietnam/ millions of blacks employed in federal agencies fail to find de mocracy working for them.
