Income Gap Between B1
NEW YORK -- "Despite the fact that black
Americans have made some gains since the civil rights
movement, the economic gap between blacks and whites
remains wide and is not diminishing,'* said a new study
released last week.
The study, conducted by the Center for the Study of
Social Policy, a private research group, said that the income
gap between black and white Americans remains as
vide today as it was in 1960.
The report attributed the disparity to a rise in the proDetroit

CHICAGO -- Some of those running for Mayor
1 Harold Washington's old congressional seat have accused
him of using "boss" tactics, the same machine politics
he rallied against when he ran for mayor.
Fourteen black Democrats competed Tuesday in a
special primary to represent the 1st District in the U.S.
House of Representatives. Washington vacated the seat
when he became Chicago's first black mayor.
"One of the things Washington fought vigorously
against is bossism and dictatorship," said state S?*v.

one-fifth to nearly one-half. The proportion of black
men with jobs fell sharply during the period.
The study also reported that the education level of
blacks is now nearing that of whites, putting more blacks
into the middle class. However, blacks with college degrees
earn about the same as whites with only a high
school diploma, the study said.
The black family's median income is $13,266 compared
with $23,517 for whites. -Challenged

Using Neighborhood Watch
Through Neighborhood Watch, citizens learn direct,
inexpensive, common-sense steps they can take to lessen
the threat ofcrime. Neighborhood Watch tips include:
-Leaving a light on so that an empty home looks oc-'
cupied.
--Engraving belongings with your driver's license number
in order to make them easy to trace and hard to resell in
case of theft.
-Installing the proper locking devices for the security
risks in different parts of the home.
-Looking out for your neighbor's home.
-Calling the police when strange or suspicious activities
occur.
When an individual takes these steps, a home is mudi"
safer. When a whole neighborhood takes these steps
through its participation in Neighborhood Watch, the environment
for successful crime is eliminated. For further
information, contact the Winston-Salem Crime Prevention
Unit at 727-2688.

Force Inc. and the Winston-Salem Police Department.

Fire Prevention
Teaching Young
By THOMAS FLYNS
Syndicated Columnist 1
i
Imagine how fire looks in the eyes of a child: glowing, i
flickering enchantingly, miraculously able to start out of i
nowhere and grow all by itself.
No wonder children are entranced by fire - it's 1
natural, healthy curiousity. Parents can repress that
curiosity, or make their children fire-safe bf |
positive training in the safe handling of fire.
Here'* onrway to use positive psychology tcjpqjgpn^
playing with matches:
At age four or five, it's time to begin a child's td
lion into the wonders of fire. Before that age, tlmHppS
has been kept away from matches and lighters. NoW's the <
time for parents to take the^ initiative. Saying, "Don't
play with matches" gives no positive information, makes ]
matches a forbidden fruit and doesn't explain the safe use ,
of matches.
Instead, guide the S-year-old's natural interest in fire.
