James Hansley
Businessman Meets With Reagan
Sf
By Yvonne Anderson
Staff Writer
■lames Hansley, president
of Vanguard Investment
Co. Inc. of Winston-Salem,
took part in a presidential
briefing held on Nov. 16 at
the White House, as a
representative of the
American Association of
Minority Enterprise Small
Business Investment Com
panies (AAMESBIC), the
trade organization for the
MESBIC industry.
According to Hansley,
President Reagan was
specifically interested in
suggestions on how to help
small business in light of his
economic recovery plan.
Hansley said that one of the
major concerns of small
businesses is the over
regulation of the industry,
which only serves to hurt
the small business through
higher overhead costs.
Vice President George
Bush was appointed by the
President to conduct
research into the effects of
regulation on the small
business and come up with
solutions to ease the pro
blem.
“It was primarily a public
relations gesture on the part
of the White Hou.se because
MESBIC was supportive of
the President’s economic
programs when they were
first introduced,” said
Hansley, “'even though
there was substantial
disagreement amoung us
about the details of the
plan,” he was quick to add.
The focus of discussion
went to an Enterprise Zones
and Urban Jobs Proposal
that is currently being
drafted at the White House.
Hansley explained that the
proposal grew out of the
supply side economic
school, first articulated by
Jack Kemp (R-NY), to give
tax credits and other incen
tives to businesses which
located themselves in
distressed areas (inner
cities).
“From my vantage point,
the proposal is geared to the
wrong thing because it isn’t

said. “Young, innovative

To see if an increase in
attendance was evident
among Winston-Salem
residents. Chronicle

local residents.
When asked if they at
tended church, some
residents had this to say:

Sherrie Richards-“My

Carolyn Booker-‘‘Yes, I

Cranford Shore-“Yes, I

J. Ray Butler, pastor of
Shiloh Baptist Chruch, said
that he believes church
membership is increasing
because that is what it is
supposed to do.
“A chruch should be a
growing, thriving part of
the community, any church
whose membership is not
growing, is not thriving a
chruch has to grow in order
to survive”, he said.
Bishop R. K. Hash, pastor
of Saint Peter’s Church of
God Apostolic, said that in
his opinion, church mem
bership is increasing be
cause of the amount of
biblical teachings that is
now available in church.
“We’re doing more bible
teaching, than hard preach
ing, there used to be a time
when all most preachers
could talk about was fire
and brimstone, now, prea
chers are becoming familiar
with bibical teaching”, he
said.
The increase in church
membership is seemingly
among the younger genera
tion. One pastor reported
that people under the age
of 35 seem to be joining
chruches in droves.
“Its sort of traditional for
young people to join the
church at around age 15”,
Butler commented. “It
does seem as though there
is a greater amount of
young people joining chur
ches these days.”
Bishop Hash said that he
reason that so many young
people are joining the
church is because most
older people are traditional
rather than biblical.
“You find a lot of the older
people believe in traditions
rather than what the bible
says, but if you tell a
younger person to do some
thing he wants to know
why, thats where biblical
teaching comes in.”
Father Curry said that the
fact that young people are
more mobile attributes to
the amount of youth joining
chruches.
“Most of the older adults
have already found church
homes and for one reason
or another don’t want to
join another chruch, a lot of
young people today are
wondering just where their
religious home is.”
Surprisingly, none of the
pastors questioned gave
scriptual reasons for the
increase of youth in their
church memberships.
The Bible tells us in Acts
2:17 that it will be the
young men that will be able
to see the visions of God,
while old men will be
dreaming dreams.
Whether it is a mere
fulfillment of the scriptur
es, or very practical reasons
for the increase in chruch
membership, the fact that
church has always been a
very vival part in the lives
of blacks has not changed,
and it appears as if it never
will.
any circumstance.s. They
caught him and he should
be punished for the crime
he committed.”
Carla Johnson-"! was-
there the day McGee
cried...That Toms chick
was a real trip. It was a .set
up, a dirty set-up.”
Carlos Hipps-"U was
plain entrapment. McGee
was .set-up, and that is all it
is to it.”
Barry Temple-"! think the
judge is the only reason
McGee was convicted. That
trial was another step in the
set-up.”
