Roy Wilkins
on the appointment of AAr. Cotrell
was blunt. His office was said to
have observed: "You can't have
this black regional director in New
York because the building trades
won't stand for it."
Silberman, the under secretary,
was said to be "furious" at this
effort. He became so firm that the
then Attorney General, John N.
Mitchell, who had objected to the
black director, was quoted as
complaining: "Who does he think
is running for President of the
United States, Richard Nixon or
Larry Silberman?" But though
Silberman refused to back down
and Cotrell's appointment was
made, Peter Brennan, the "hard
hat" man, removed him.
Donald F. Rodgers, an assistant
to AAr. Colson, is said to have been
equally blunt about all-black
unions. "He wanted the depart
ment to bring enough action
against them so they could put the
unions out of business, because
they were competing with white
unions for construction jobs," was
the way one source put it.
AAr. Colson has said he didn't
have close control over Rodgers.
Rodgers is also alleged to have told
some unions that the White House
would relax its non-discrimination
efforts after the election.
Race and color, as in all of the U.
S. history, appear to have been
factors in the holy crusade to
re-elect President Nixon in 1972.
The language, according to
reports, was nakedly racial and
the action was abrupt and definite,
in line with the traditions of the
teamsters and construction work
ers. The necessity for Negroes to
fight this monolithic opposition is
apparent.
For black Americans the deadly
contest is for bread, for shelter, for
schools, for life's little successes
and happiness. For all Americans
the struggle against "the Water
gate mind" will determine the kind
of country we have. We can have
cold and ruthless policies, sweep
ing away the obstructive do-
gooders, the Larry Silbermans, if
you will, leaving only the hard
machines to fight the hard
machines — to the death.
Short Thoughts
accomplished. The Democratic
Party must not turn its backs on
the newcomers to the party. We
must realize that each group has a
value to give if it is more than
seeing the needs of our country
through its unique experience. I
am sorry to say that the report of
the Democratic Party clam bake
in eastern North Carolina did not
take account of the real situation
today.
AAost urban planning ironically
leaves out the elements which are
so essential to bringing the right
spirit of community to an urban
setting. Cherryview is a prime
example of a lack of concern for
the people who were supposed to
be helped. It Is amazing that the
project was finished at all. The
people living in the community had
very little input, if any, in the
planning. The community has no
church, recreation center, nor
does it have people consistently
working on a personal basis with
residents who are working through
new homeowners' responsibility
and pitfalls.
Pride in the community is one of
the great needs for building a
community spirit of good neigh
bors. This means the people who
build the housing and run the
community should be from all
walks of life there. A model
community should include the full
input of all tenants, clergymen,
lawyers, professional people,
businessmen, building crew work
ers, volunteers, in a building
program — all, both black and
white, young and old. If the
members of the community
participate fully in decisions
concerning the building of housing
and growth of the community this
will give each person a pride in
sharing his community with
others. The heart and souls of
people must support the commun
ity, not just their cleverness and
aggressiveness.

the hapitual things you say to your self, the spiritual
relationships to which you cling; Determine your
life, as the moon controls, the tide of the sea.”
As a man thinketh in his heart so he will become.
When life gets you down in the danger zone, seek
the Security of high thoughts. "Lead me to the rock
that is higher than 1,"
II: Again, consider the security of High Purpose.
Chancellor Hutchins of the University of Chicago,
has been greatly disturbed by the inabihty of many
Educated people to face life, and solve their
personal problems. He concludes that much
University instruction is too encyclopedic, devoid of
useful purpose. He says our great universities are
like department stores of factual information;
offering Students courses on every conceivable
subject from Cow-Milking to Cosic rays. As a result,
young people go out into the world with knowledge,
but no purpose. They know how to order the things
of their profession or business, but cannot order
their own lives. They start out to right the world
without putting in order, their own inner emotional
and moral Ufe,
The psalmist felt the need of a purpose mightier
than any thing his own mind could concieve, and his
own hands could possess. He wanted to put himself
under the influence of something out-side of himself;
that was greater than himself. Life, according to
Jesus is not measured by what one possesses but by
what possesses it.
“For thou art a refuge for me. A tower of
protection. I will dwell in thy tent for ever.” "For a
sure hold upon lite he appeals to God.” Lead me to
the rock. He wants the sense of security that is
oaramount. He wants to fasten his faith about the
impregnable rock of God’s protection. The Revised
version, translation is suggested, “Lift me upon a
rock and make me secure.”
Other hopes had failed. Other foundations had
crumbled. “But thy mercy 0 Lord, is from
everlasting to ever-lasting, upon them that fear
theee. Secure me in the fortress of thy power, that I
may be able to stand against the forces that would
destroy me, and having done all to stand. Secure me
not in the shifting sands of some current philosophy
or in the false security of Military might but “Lead
me to the rock that is higher than L”
“Make me secure in the things that are eternal.”
The poor man of the Text had probably become
lost in the claim of lower loyalties. He thinks about
his troubles, and suddenly discovers a power
outside him that could bring him through; and
secure his soul in peace. “Lead me to that rock that
is higher than I.”
in. And last.
The God-seeker is lured upward by the vision of
the high. Every attainment becomes a vantage point,
from which he gUmpses a higher - range of
things-still desired. He is urged onward and upward
by the vision of the rock that is higher.
Whenever we have lost this, we have lost the
God-ward Trail.
“The writer of the Hebrews-puts it;
These all died in the faith, not having received the
promises, but having seen them afar off, and were
persuaded of them and em-braced them.”
Finally, when this psalmist found himself in the
danger zone of life, he cried to God to lead him to the
rock. I think that word is significant. He bases his
petition on his faith in God.
