Where are the state legislatures which have enacted statutes mandating enforcement by local cities, counties, and school boards of the 14th and 15th amendment voting rights? Where are the state at torneys general, who provide positive guidance to local governmental attorneys? Where are the minority citizens who testify to the good deeds of their elected officials? If they e.xist at all, they have not come before this subcom mittee.” The original Voting Rights Act, which has been extend ed twice, is designated to ensure that racial and language minority citizens, have the same opportunity as other Americans to participate in the nation’s political life. When the law was passed and again when it was reauthorized in 1970 and 1975, Congress provided special enlorcement measures to guarantee compliance by state and local governments with a history of officially sanc tioned discrimination. The law now contains three “trig gers” to identify such past systemwide bias. The original “trigger” (1) brought under special con- verage the entire states of Alabama, Alaska, Georgia, Louisiana, Mississippi, South Carolina, and Virginia. In addition, 40 counties in North Carolina and scattered counties in Arizona, Hawaii and Idaho were also covered. This aspect of the law brought heated rebuttal from many southern representative as to the constitutionality of the law, claiming that it was “regional-legislation.” “Triggers” (2 and 3) establish jurisdiction where 5 per cent of the voting population are members of a single language minority (not english) and the illiteracy rate for that population is higher than the nationaT rate of il literacy. Section 5 of the Act requires jurisdictions covered under the first two “triggers” to submit in advance any proposed change in election laws or procedures, to the federal government for approval. The current debate over extention of the Act centers on the continuance of Section 5, the heart of the Voting Rights Act. Two legislative approaches have been pro- po.sed. Bill S. 895 and H.R. 3112 filed by Sen. Charles C. Mathias (R-Md.) and Rep. Peter Rodino (D-N.J.) call for continued current provisions of the act for ten years and would clarify the provisions involved in latyt year’s Supreme Court decision in Mobile vs. Bolden. In that case, the court held that If was necessary to demonstrate a specific intent to discriminate in order to substantiate voting discrimination; these bills would pro vide that voting discrimination could be proven by show ing a discriminatory result. Meanwhile, Rep. Henry Hyde (R-Ill.) has Introduced bill H.R. 3473 that would abolish Section 5 of the Act, although individual judges would retain the power to im pose pre-clearance in selected cases. The bill would cor rect the Mobile vs.; Bolden decision by also requiring pro of of discriminatory result instead of discriminatory in tent. The debate over the future of the act that has already begun in the house of Representatives, will be carried out across the country during the next year. The house hear ings, before the. Subcommittee on Civil and Constitu tional Rights, that is chaired into by Rep. Donald Ed wards (D-Calif.), will continue into June. The full house is expected to act on the legislation later this year. just that bad our there.” Newell said that the residents had become very vocal in letting their com plaints about the housing conditions be known and that publicity was a key fac tor in the receipt of the federal grant. The grant was applied for by Urban Housing, Inc., a management firm hired by Goler Metropolitan A.M.E. Zion Church, the owner of the apartments. Rev, Horace Walser, pastor of Goler Metropolitan said that the church hired Urban Housing to manage the complex five years ago and it was the firm who came up with the idea to apply for the grant. “We’ve had so many needs and so many things that need taking care of out there, that we couldn’t do it all without the grant,” said Rev. Walser. Davita Martin, vice- president of Urban Hous ing, Inc. said that the money will be used for in terior and exterior renova tions. “The first going to do replace the roofing on the thing we are apartments, broken and said Martin. be replaced ' rails will also be replaced,” floors in some units would and out. and Painitj ROCK BOTTOM PRICES SnUIT RICHT HERE!

We must not be dependent on any one political party or any one political ideology, we must not even depend on White liberals or White conservatives. We must de pend on ourselves to help ourselves - Whites can sup port us, but they cannot lead us!” he shouted.
