12 ■W" THE CMOUmAH feALEDGH, N. C., SATURDAY, NOVEMBER I*. 1961 ■NEWS » WM „ *d VIEWS INGRATITUDE TO NAACP ROCKY MOUNT—Since this col umn has been discussed and 'cuss ed' so much in some quarters be cause of our outspoken demands that colored people not only be giv en a better place in the sun—great er opportunities to compete on an equal with all people; but that Ne gro teachers, preachers and pro fessionals should—when they think they ’have arrived’—help to lift others to their level. Briefly, we’ll quote from tha Philadelphia Tribune, July 26, 1958 in part as follows: "All mankind is dependent upon other people for survival. The most disgusting of all God’s creatures are are those who ara puffed up with their own con ceit Those who have achieved a semblance of success and cry out in a great loud voice, “Look what I have done all by myself’, are the world’s biggest fools. Somewhere, •omehow, in some manner « help ing hand has been extended to ease tha burden and smootL the way for those who have risen a little above tha crowd." Continuing, tha Tribune bate a homer with tills point: “People who take and never give, who receive and never contribute may exist but oover live. Those who remove ev arything from the pot and put noth ing back deserve to be scorned by their fellowmen, for they are as hogs under an aeorti tree who fill their bellies and never give thanks for the blessings.’’ The Tribun goes on to enumer ate the many better things which Negroes are now enjoying in Amer ica due to the 52 years of NAACP achievement in lifting the living standard, adding, “It now appears that many of those whc have been able to improve their positions as the result of the NAACP (efforts) refuse to support its present strug gle to remove the restrictions which hold down the masses of their peo ple, especially in the Deep South,” "Those who think that the battle has been won and everything is peaches and cream on the racial front are mistaken. There remains much to be done. The opposition to equality for Negroes Is fighting des perately. This organization (NAA CP) needs and deserves the support of all Negroes and men of goodwill, and especally those who have at tained higher standards of living because of the NAACP, should make substantial contributions. The time to do it is now.” “That man may last, but never lives, who much receives, but nothing gives." Joinirn the NAACP fight few full •quality is a matter of self-defense and self-preservation on the part of Holly Springs BY MRS.

Notice the hieroglyphics inscribed on it And here,” he says, pointing to a pudgy-faced, squat Oriental figure. “is a genuine Buddhist idol which I came across in Tibet.” He leads you to another table, and picks up another object. “Here is a real treasure,” he exclaims. “A scroll taken from one of the ancient tombs of Egypt.” Hr runs his finger over the crude scrawls and inscriptions on the yellowed parchment, then points to one corner of the sheet, “took at this—‘6o B. C.’ Makes this almost priceless. Oh, how I dislikp the necessity of selling all these treasures!” You and Bill Morrison move on past solne of the other exhibits— f ancient aborigine headdresses, weapons, clothing, cooking utensils, and the like, and then Clinton Monroe excuses himself to answer a tele- 4 phone call. Bill Morrison turns to you enthusiastically. “Isn't this wonderful’ This is the opportunity of a lifetime for me to add to my own collec tion! I can hardly wait to begin talking price with Mr. Monroe." You place a restraning hand on Morrison's elbow, and say, “If I were you, I’d think very hard before investing in any of these items.. Some of them might be genuine, but one of them I know is an out-and-out fake!” Which article have you detected as a fake, and why? SOLUTION The scroll which was marked ”60 B.
