I Mr. Stewart said that the I key factors during 1974 were : the 1 unbated inflation, ! competition from the private money market Instruments, and high rate government securities and the general uncertainly on the part of the American public. The outlook for 1975 is somewhat cloudy at the moment. Mortgage money, Stewart said, will be in share supply for at least the first part of the year, although hopefully as we go through this year, the nation will begin to develop effective solutions to the Inflation and rising prices, which in turn should be good for all of us.

MICHAUX (Continued From Front Page) guarantee that the commission's recommendation will be accepted. He is a graduate of the NCCU Law School. "If I have to, I'll introduce a bill myself to appropriate funds for the law school," Michaux said, and he added that it was possible that supporters of the other schools in the UNC system and those supporting NCCU tray form a coalition to fight the budget commission's recommendations. Michaux said he was optimistic, but cautious that the funds will be made available for the law school. On other matter expected to come up before the session of the assembly Michaux said he planned to reintroduce his landlord-tenant bill which was defeated last year in the House. The law would provide a series of legal protections for tenants in their relations with landlords, including a law preventing retaliatory evictions. The Durham County representatives said he also planned to introduce a bill that would regulate the sale of resort land and provide protection to purchasers against unscrupulous land developers. He said he would also introduce a bill to ratify the Equal Rights Amendment for women, a measure also voted down in the last session. The" amendment" would prohibit discrimination on the basis of sex. Michaux said a recent poll showed 72 per cent of the legislators in favor or the ERA. Michaux said he hoped the General Assembly would take positive action on such other Issues as the enactment of some for of no-fault insurance and the abolishment of the state's death penalty. The 1975 General Assembly is overshelmingly Democratic. As a result of the 1974 elections the Democratic majority in the House . has grown to a 111-9 majority.

We. along with' most people involved in speculating on the economic picture for 197?, have offered some fairly dismal prog noses for the .coming year. , .,- What we may have failed to give proper recognition was an article appearing in the, September 16. 1974. issue of the Wall Street Journal. What that information may have sig naled is the death of the current major fideral programs supporting small busi ness ventures in America. SBA and OMBE continue to carry on business as usual, seemingly protected by their umbilical cords to the U.S. Treasury, with their heads buried in the sand, audit ing reports clutched in hand and bad news creeping up fast from the rear. What the Wall Street Journal heralded is the probable abandonment of the current policies of banks to provide loans to small business borrowers at interest rates below those charged to prime corporate borrow ; ers . ..v;--, r.; ;, So much for corporate social responsi bility. The First National City Bank, as one of the leaders of this country's banking in dustry has fearlessly stepped forward as the first in what we hope will be a quickly aborted movement. If other banks were to foflow suit, small business, and to be sure Black business, would be in a world of trouble. - The order of the day calls for the devel opment of innovative if not spectacular ways of getting Blacks into the American, free enterprise system. That means dramatic solutions to some very old problems. Banks in recent years have been support ive of small business development by offer ing loans at rates significantly lower than prime interest rates, if coupled with an SBA guarantee. DR. BERKELEY G. BURRELL President, National Butinm lau- ' Whether the departure from that policy was motivuted purely by pressing economic conditions profit and loss statements are the red or black facts of life. If small busi nesses are forced to pay higher rates' of in . teres! from the traditional lending "sources, " it is a certainty that fewer will be around at "the close of the year. Equally as serious is the stifling effect this will place on those .' businesses' that might otherwise be able to . survive this new crunch but continue to be under capitalized. The impact of V-eul-off of capital sources for struggling 'small businesses on the one hand effectuates imminent demise and .. on the other hand kills the concept of com munity economic development We can, only hope that other biinltSi-f , will not follow First "National "City's Banks s ' lead. But should this develop into a irend.-., v. it will be necessary to call . on the Con gress to shore up the future of small' bud jo Black businesses in America. . -. - iiCileH-hVmMVt!.
