12 THE CKiOUHIAIV BALEIOII, N. C., SATURDAY, JULY 21. 1962 ■NEWS J BJiARREN VIEWS 53 YEARS OF CIVIL RIGHTS PROGRESS WASHINGTON, D. C. “THANK GOD FOR THE GOOD WHITE FOLKS!” Yes, you read it right the first time. This col umn can truly say “Thank God for the GOOD white folks” in the good old USA, because if it were not for those who are GOOD and the near-good the colored Ameri can, commonly called the Negro and even worse names, would have a helluva time existing (few of us really live) in this country a mong those of the whites who would rather see a dog fare better than we do. This brings us around to com menting that Ralph McGill of the Atlanta (Ga.) Constitution is per haps the most “liberal” southern editor of a white rally still alive. (You know most “liberal” editors of the white race, and militant ed itors of the colored race are quickly put out of business in the South. See if you can’t think of a few who have suffered that fate). Os course a liberal or militant editor here in the Nation's Cap itol City or on up a hove the Smith and Wesson Line does not deserve as much commendation as one “deep in the heart of Dixie (to us, DIXIE seems like Trixie because she can certainly be a dog to us just when we are most trusting and hopeful). With the closing of the recent i Atlanta NAACP historic conven- i tion we hear more rumblings and grumblings among the Johnny come-latelys and others who are without the wisdom of .FIFTY THREE YEARS of earnest effort and STEADY PROGRESS in this great Civil Rights Fight for EQUALITY UNDER THE LAW for ALL AMERICANS. These peo ple—some old enough to know' better—are joining the thousands of youths who. understandably, are weary with the “Stoney road we've trod, ’til now we stand at last, where the bright gleam of our bright star is cast.” With the impatience of youth they want to “March on ’til vic tory is WON.” However anxious we are for VICTORY, we must recognize the continued need for the “Steady beat of our weary feet” if we are to “March into the Jerusalem” of FULL EQUALITY and FULL RESPONSIBILITY as full-fleged Americans. We cannot act the part of sub standard citizens and expect to be treated as FIRST-CLASS. We’ve got to bear the load of Improved living, conduct, morality, Chris tianity, health improvement, era dication of illegitimacy (at least greatly REDUCING IT); and EN COURAGE MUCK MORE THRIFTINESS—SAVING of our earnings and investing .in REAL ESTATE instead of just fine clothes, expensive autos and big liquor parties which fade away. ‘RESPONSIBILITY MILITANCY’ All of which brings us to the grand editorial in the Washing ton POST of July 10 entitled: “Responsibility Militancy” which we quote in full as follows: “In and out of season and, especially during the long season when all the forces of law and au thority seem to be arrayed aginst Negro rights—the National Asso ciation for the Advancement of Colored People has fought the good fight for Negro emancipation in the full meaning of the term. In defending Negro rights, it has of course, defended American rights and has served the welfare of the whole Nation. "The incorruptibility of the N AACP in terms of its vital prin ciples, its unflagging militancy and its success in pressing litiga tion have earned it the accolade of epithets from the south’s White Citizens Councils. It is (surprising that white suprema cists should call the NAACP ’•com munistic” for its championship of the United States Constitution, It is altogether bewildering, however, to hear complaints from Negroes that the NAACP is not militant enough—-that it is guilty of “tom ming” because of its sagacious, .resolute reliance on reason and. the law for the advancement of Negro interests. St is true, to be sure. that, some extremely useful work for the ad vancement of Negro rights has been done In the last couple of years through demonstrations such as the lunch counter sit-ins staged by the Congress of Racial Equality. It would be a great mis fortune, however, if any sort of rivalry between the two approa ches should be allowed to cloud their essentially complimentary character. Both are needed. So is the quiet (seeking of) job expan sion and community accommoda tion work of the National Urban League. There should have been no need for Roy Wilkins, the executive secretary of the NAACP and a va liant. indefatigable fighter for freedom, to have to defend his or ganization at its annual conven tion In Atlanta this past weekend. “All dedicated hands are welcome and needed in this fight,” he said, and added justifiably, “but the NAACP would be less than human if it did not take a special pride not. only in what it has done but in what it is doing today.” FORD SALES and SERVICE ALLAN MIMS, SNOOBFOBdT ED Telephone *-2191 **6 TARBORO ST. [! EOCKY MOUNT, N. C. “Other Negro leaders found it necessary to refute charges that the NAACP is outdated and to call for unity within the civil rights ranks. Generously and just ly, Dr. James M. Nabrit Jr., presi dent of Howard University, re minded the NAACP convention of another significant element in civil rights, “the voice of the sil ent, law-abiding, tolerant white southerners.” And he called upon Negroes to “join wholeheartedly in an all-out effort to combat crime, to halt juvenile delinquen cy and to make our cities safe for all citizens,” “This is the language of progress, made all the more ef fective because it is also the lan guage of responsibility.” Thus spoke the Washington POST in defense of the experi enced 53-year-old NAACP whose persistence has brought us thus far on our way. It would help greatly if those who are counsel ing the youths would urge cau tious, prudent action rather than hasty un-thought-out action cal culated to cost the NAACP much more money in bailing out those who act too hastily in trying to obtain equ; l rights. This type of precipitate action frequently costs the race more in hard-to-get money and prestige than it is worth. Currently, there’s too j much clamour for rank by com | peting forces who need to com ! bine with the NAACP to win this rights fight. Won't you join the NAACP today? It’s a badge of honor.

Mrs. Oliver did not shew up. and Arlena lost a slip of paper that, in an emergency, was to have brought the two together. Arlena stayed at the District of Columbia Junior Village till her aunt claimed her a week later. (LTI TELEPHOTO). Stranded Girl, 7, Loses Aunt But Finds Week Filled Will! Fun WASHINGTON, D. C. (ANP) Seven-year-old Arlena Yvonne Gip son may have “lost’’ her aunt but she found a barrel of fun during her strangle visit here. Arlena has been here almost a week awaiting the aunt she missed at the same time she lost a slip of paper that, in an emergency, was to have brought the two together. Junior Village officials, where she was placed pending location of her parents or her aunt, said she seemed to be enj ing herself with numerous boys and girls her own age to play with. T like to play” she said with a grin, then added after a moment, “and to read.” Arlena stepped off a Greyhound bus here from New York. She said her aunt was to have met her at the terminal. She carried a suitcase of neatly packed clothing, some of it new. Her father had driven her to the bus ■'terminal in Manhattan, kissed her goodbye and given her a dollar, she said. At the station she looked for her Hopping About TARHEELIA By Jay Bee- Aytch BIG CITY TRAGEDIES PHILADELPHIA, Pa. This j place is called the "City Os Bro j therly Love” or the “Quaker City” l Either of these titles would appear j erroneous in light of the present i day happenings hereabouts, which 'one sees or reads about even with j just a five-day visit to the home stead of the great William Penn, whose name is* synonymous with this place even as the name of George Washington is famous at Valley Forge (nearby) where he was seen kneeling in prayer dur ing the trying days of the World for American Independence. When we “hit town” Willie Mays, the high-priced race base bailer was being acclaimed for his stellar performance of a grand slam catch which thousands said saved the All-Star game for -his team. Others were praising a. fel low on the other team named Wills.. One day Martin Luther King. Jr. and Ralph Abernathy were in jail under 45 days or $l7B each be cause they led a march protesting segregation in Albany, Ga. The next day their jailor w-.s report edly begging them to leave his jail, even as the jailor in the Bibie begged some Prophets to depart from his bastille. Those Men-Of- God were too hot to handle. He told them: “Gpd knows. Rever end, I don’t want you in my jail." Some one had gone and paid the fine without the approval of Revs. King and Abernathy and a lot of their followers working for full freedom, King preferred martyr dom to freedom. Some, again, want to pin King's release on the Kennedy family. This column would rather think that southern whites, themselves, put up that money or persuaded Negroes to do so in order to save face for Albany. In Dee Cee the Dixiecrats and friends were trying to show that “Our Boy” Thurgood Marshall would be biased on the federal court bench because of his former connections with the NAACP. Well, if they follow that rule | throughout they would remove Sen. Olin D. Johnston from the Senate Juidiciary subcommittee chairmanship along with Sen James o. Easterling, because of their well-known dislike for Negro rights. Among the human tragedies of a fatal nature we note these: Police [Commissioner Albert Brown re ports over 40,000 crimes commit ted in the Philadelphia area last year along with 188 murders. 605 rapes, 2,650 robberies, 18,300 burg laries and 4,471 assaults. There were over 600 attacks on police men while in the discharge of their duties. In each instance the 1061 fig ures above quoted are slightly less than in 1960! > j Thursday a subway station I cashier was robbed at gun-point of S2OO. Friday a Food Fair super market suffered a $17,000 payroll robbery. Friday there was a $35,000 bank robbery in the northern sector of Philadelphia. Also Friday, a man walked into police headquarters and asked what the penalty would be “if I kill my wife?” The officer took it for a jest and told him to man to be slightly inebrated. An hour later he called up and said he had killed his wife! Officers found him calmly sitting in his I kitchen holding the gun with the j body 01" his lovely wife on the i floor in blood. j City Hall here is in the midst i of a budding municipal scandal in 1 "Aunt Suessa” she said, in the meantime buying a bag of popcorn and a soda. Her aunt never showed up. An officer took her to the Wo men's Bureau. ’When I took out my dollar I guess I lost the paper my mother wrote on", she said at Junior Vil lage, w.nere the Women’s Bureau ojaced her. The Women's Bureau is working with the New York City Police but has not turned up any leads. The first home address she gave police turned out to be a ga rage. Dressed in a bright pink dress and patent leather shoes. Aliena said she visited her aunt, uncle and four cousins last year and her most vivid memory is that of a “big swimming pool" near her aunt's home. She was uncerain of their full names, address or phone num ber. "I’m going to write my mother this afternoon and she'll tell me where my aunt lives. I'm not even scared at all." she said in a small voice. .which the Republicans are hope ful that a grand jury investiga tion of alleged corruption will hurt the Democrats and help the Republicans. Washington caught the politi cal prognosticators off-guard when President John F. Kennedy announced the appointment of the Cleveland, Ohio mayor to suc ceed retiring Health. Education and Welfare chief A. Ribicoff, who plans a higher political try. Many I had guessed that a Negro would | get the nod. In Tarheelia several eastern area counties are getting U. S. I assistance because of June storms and floodings to crops. In Penn sylvania 2 counties are getting aid ; because of drought conditions.
