NEW EQUAL EMPLOYMENT LAWS FOR RADIO,
TV REQUESTED
The Philadelphia Commission on Human Rights has
initiated a two-pronged effort to require local radio and
television stations to speed up programs under which
they employ, upgrade and train women and members
of minority groups.
Commission Chairman Clarence Farmer stated that
new regulations have been called for which would
require the stations, as a condition for holding
broadcast licenses, to eradicate employment
inequalities.
Farmer’s request for new licensing regulations was
made in a letter to Federal Communications
Commission Chairman Richard Wiley. It stated, in
part, “obvious conclusions to be drawn from our study
are that Spanish-surnamed Americans have little
employee representation in the local broadcasting
industry; that blacks are substantially under-represent
ed in jobs paying $9,000 per year or more, and that
women are substantially underrepresented in positions
paying over $11,000.”
The broadcasting industry regulations proposed by
the commission would urge stations into actively
recruiting or upgrading, hiring and training minority
personnel and women having the potential to fill jobs at
administrative, professional and technical levels.

Stamps Not The Answer
GREENSBORO, N.C.
While many persons are
excited by Guilford Coun
ty’s neW food stamp
program, Mrs. John Hamp
ton, a foods and nutrition
instructor at A&T State
University, says it is not the
answer to feeding the
nation’s poor.
“People are not being
reached by ‘feed the
hungry’ or other current
federal programs,” said
Mrs. Hampton, “and the
growing inflation has added
to the problem.”
. While somewhat down
on the food giveaway
programs, Mrs. Hampton
is very optimistic about
revised attempts of Con
gress to come up with a
national nutrition policy.
Blacks Ask FCC
For TV Channels
adopted.
James McCuller, chair
man of NBMC, challenged
the FCC to act now to
assure black ownership of
the proposed 62 TV
stations, declaring that
“without taking such a
positive, affirmative step,
there is little likelihood that
all-white domination of
television ownership will be
substantially reversed...we
defy the Commission to
explain precisely how,
without taking such a step,
it proposed to insure
minority ownership of a
really substantial number
of television stations in the
not too distant future.”
The new stations would
“It’s the best thing that
ever happened,” said Mrs.
Hampton, who has just
returned from special
hearings of the Senate’s
Select Committee on Nutri
tion and Human Needs in
Washington, D.C.
“The senators needed to
be educated about the
complexity of the problem,’
said Mrs. Hampton, “and
to hear it from the
experts.”
I am very hopeful that
something good will come
of those hearings.”
Returning to her criti
cism of the food stamp
program, she said:*
First of all, many people
don’t know about the
program. We need a better
system of communicating
with the people.”

The National Black
Media Coalition (NBMC)
has asked the FCC to create
62 new VHF television
assignments and reserve
them for the use of blacks
and other minority groups.
In comments on a
petition for rule-making
filed with the FCC by the
Office of Communications
of the United Church of
Christ and others, NBMC,
a coalition of 42 black
communications citizens’
groups across the country,
asked the FCC to take
immediate and affirmative
action to open the nation’s
television airwaves to
extensive black ownership.
Citing a recent study by
the federal government’s
Office of Telecommunica
tions Policy (OTP), which . _
showed the 62 new VHF Slove Plontations Efflclent?
television stations could go
on the air without signifi
cant interference with
existing television signals,
NBMC asked the FCC to
make the 62 TV assign
ments and place a year’s
moratorium on licensing
anyone to use them. During
that year, the FCC would
assist black entrepreneurs
to meet the financial and
technical requirements for
operating the stations.
Upon meeting those re
quirements, the blacks
would automatically win
the new television licenses,
if the NBMC proposal is
cation for minority busi
nessmen.
The program, which got
underway Monday, will be
a cooperative arrangement
between A&T and the
University of Minnesota.
Turner will commence
the full program after a
six-week internship at the
University of Minnesota is
completed.
The overall program will
be directed by Dr. Edgar
Persons, professor of agri
cultural education at the
University of Minnesota
and the A&T portion will be
coordinated by Dr. A. P.
Bell.
The A&T program will
initially enroll from 12 to 20
area businessmen, with an

Whether or not the large
pre-Civil War southern
plantations were more
efficient than smaller farms
will be the subject of a
research project funded
Monday for an A&T State
University economics tea
cher.
Donald F. Schaefer,
assistant professor of
economics, has been grant
ed $20,000 by the National
Science Foundation for the
one-year study.
“The question of why
large southern plantations
or slave plantations evolved
remains unresolved,” said
Schaefer. “Even their
efficiency relative to smal
ler units of agriculture has
not been clearly establish
ed, despite recent studies.’
Schaefer’s study will
cover a 10-year period
between 1850 and 1860. For
his study, he will examine
records of pre-Civil War
farms in Kentucky, Tenn
essee and Louisiana,
He said he will test the
general hypothesis that
large southern plantations
existed because they were
efficient relative to the
smaller units of agriculture.
“The result of the
study,” said Schaefer,
“should be to advance our
knowledge of why one of
the more dominant econo
mic, social and political
institions in the antebellum
United States evolved as it
did.”
