According to the petition, which consisted of fourteen (14) recommendations, schools in the South have progressed substantially in their efforts toward desegregation with approximately 50 per cent of black pupils attending predominately white schools. Schools in the North, however, have tailed to measure to this effort. In the North, according to the Coinmission, more than 71 per cent of the black schools. Among its 14 recommendations, the Commission is recjuesting the following steps as means of eliminating segregation: ♦Denying tax-exempt status to segregated private schools. *Stop federal aid to segregated private schools. *Ensure job protection for black administrators and teachers. ♦Require states to submit a statewide desegregation plan as a prerequisite tor continued federal funding. *Put the dcsegration effort under a program headed by one person. ♦Provide additional funds to school districts demonstrating that busing is necessary to maintain compliance of dcsegration laws. ♦Provide construction money only to those schools that have complied with the dcsegration guidelines. These are but half of the recommendations, but they serve to show the direction of thinking of the U.S. Commission on Civil Rights. « * * It is felt that the economic conditions of the United States will be improved, if not significantly, if there were more strigent enforcement of immigration laws. This comment w as made by retired General Leonard F. Chapman of the Immigration and Naturalization Servicc. Chapman, at a mid-winter conference of Veterans of Foreign Wars, stated that there may be 10 million to 12 million illegal aliens in the United States is experiencing the impact of their presence in the job market. i: * 4: Papers donated by Senator Hubert H. Humphrey to the Minnesota Slate Historical Society have been disallowed as deductible expenses by the Internal Revenue Servicc. Though Sen. Humphrey has a right to appeal this decision, he has signed an agreement to reimburse the government for the deductions when a bill is received from IRS. It is estimated that Sen. Humphrey may be required to pay as much as $147,000 lo the federal government and $14,000 to the state. * * * STATE Guilford County lawmakers Rep. Henry Frye and Sen. Kathy Sebo introduced proposed legislation to the North Carolina General Assembly which would enable families to receive aid to families with dependent children (AFDC) payments if the father resides with the children and their mother. Frye and Sebo fee! that the present social services law is antiquated due to the present economic status of the state, especially the individual job market. They also feel that the present law encourages broken homes and dishonesty - saying the father is away when he is really hiding. Though federal social services laws allow states to make payments to children when both parents reside in the same household, no southern state has yet taken that initiative. Both the Guilford County Board of Commissioners and the social services board chairman support the proposed legislation. * * * Mayor Howard Lee of Chapel Hill has denied that he plans to lead a rally in Washington, D.C., next month in support of accused murderer Joan Little. Continued on Page 8 KERNERSVILLE - John Lovelle, one of the new breed of black men, is a very successful salesman whose product is automo biles. He is one of the top auto salesmen in the Triad area. It was not always that way still John always wanted to sell and has always had a special feeling for cars. It then was only natural that they should get together. First, he worked at several other occupations before arriving on the sales floor, he worked on the assembly lines in Detroit then back to North Carolina where he worked for the post office in Greensboro, and still later, back home in Pilot Mountain he operated a dry cleaning business. His urge was too strong to be ignored. He had to sellautomobiles! So, for the past dozen years, that is exactly what he has been doing. You can find John, pleasantly greeting people, somewhere around the sales floor at Parks Chevrolet in Kernersville. Like most good sales men, John has some ideas of his own on what it takes to be a successful sales man: (I) Get a product you like and learn all you can about it. (2) Honor and respect your customers and try to serve them w'ell. (3) Be fair with your employer and do a fair and honest job. (4) Be willing to work and be willing to start at some place other than the top. Yout time will come! He believes that the field of sales, as a career, is unlimited for alert, bright young men; but no place for drifters or fly-by-nighters. The rewards are bountiful, but this is a goal one has to earn. Mr. & Mrs. Lovelle reside in Piolot Mountain with their youngest daugh ter. They have two other daughters. One in Atlanta, Georgia, and one in Washington, D.C. There one son is in the navy. The Lovelle family is acive in church and community affairs in Pilot Mountain. He is also active in the N.A.A.C.P. (past President of the local chapter).
