i fHS CMROUM!A9f RALEIGH, N. C., SATURDAY, JANUARY 22. 19«€ 2 Dr, Weaver fCottiSjfi«>«4 ttum Pag* i> President Johnson signed the bill creating the new depart ment on Sept., 8, 1985, and it officially came into being in early December. In announcing Weaver's se lection, President Johnson said that the appointee had been se lected from among 300 "out standing potential candidates.” He called ttie new cabinet mem ber-elect ‘‘a quiet, but articu late man of action.” The appointment followed swiftly on the heels of Presi dent Johnson’s State of the Un ion message, in which he call ed for the first federal legis lation to prohibit racial dis crimination in the sale or rent al of private housing, The President is of the opo nion that such legislation would more effectively attack housing evils than an executive order such as the one signed by the late President Kennedy in 1962, which the NAACP had request ed to be extended to cover ail banks and savings and loan associations Insured or super vised by the federal govern ment. That order prohibits racial discrimination in constructive with mortgages insured by the Federal Housing Administra tion or the Veterans Adminis tration. £ ess than one of five news houses are affected by the order. Girl, 14 (Continued from Put l) print, told officers she was at her sister’s house about the middle of last August, around 6 p, m. Her sister asked her to do some ironing for her, it was brought out, and the sis ter then left the house to go to the store. The girl said Hunter called her into a back room and closed the door. He then took off her closes and raped her, she declared. "I hit him in the chest," the child said. She also stat ed the reason she didn't scream was because she was afraid and three minor children were out side playing. The reason she didn’t tell anyone, the girl said, was be cause it was her sister’s hus band, and she only revealed the alleged rape after her school teacher told her she was con cerned about her and asked that her mother take her to a doc tor. The mother compiled by tak ing her daughter to a physician on New Bern Ave. Friday, That is when the pregnancy was dis covered’. MAN DENIES FORCE Hunter told the cops he was working on his car outside in the yard and went inside to get a wrench. He said as he walked pass the girl, who was Ironing, "She flirted at me” and he took her onto a corner of the bed and penetrated her slightly for a bout one minute. Hunter denied using force or taking off any of the girl’s clothes. He said, "She left them on and didn’t resist al all." He further declared he didn’t believe he could have gotten her pregnant, adding he had not "had anything to do with a woman in over a year.” A hearing will be held in Wake County Domestic Rela tions Court at a date to be set. Hunter is believed to be free on a bond of SSOO. Hall Os Famer (Continued front Pag* %} ion building now under con struction. Three of the four students who initiated the movement at tended the program, Including: Ezell Blair, Jr,, now an in structor counselor at the Rod man Job Corps Center, New Bedford, Mass.; Franklin Mc- Cain, now a development chem - Ist with a national textile firm at Charlotte, N. C.; and David Richmond, who returned to A&T last fall to complete his stu dies. Joseph McNeill, the fourth is a first lieutenant and navi gator with the U. S. Air Force Strategic Air Command and sta tioned at Ellsworth AFB, South Dakota, and could not attend because of military assign ments. In Issuing the challenge to students to join the movement for voter registration, Robin son announced that the Freedom National Bank had already pledged a substantial initial fund for at least one full-time Free dom Scholarship to be award ed a student to attend the grad uate school of his choice for the most outstanding leader in the voter program. In commendation for the four students who began the student revolt, Robinson said, "This nation owes debt of gratitude for that courage and dignity which sparked a magnificent, non-violent revolution, a revo lution as noble and as import ant as the American Revolu tion which freed a young coun try from the bonds of tyranny.” Referring to the problems which he encountered during his baseball career, the former Brooklyn Dodger star said he was able and glad to be able to stand up for his rights once the late Branch Rickey tod released him from the promise to "turn the other cheek." He continued, "The release was all ! needed. 1 acjed ac cording to my own principles, reacted according to my own Judgment. I did what I be lieve was right and I didn’t bite my tongue when I felt I had something to say." He said one big lesson from these experiences assures that no intelligent self-respecting colored man can remain aloof from the struggle for equality. Robinson spent a busy day on the campus. Between signing autographs for hundreds of stu dents and visitors, he attended a coffee-hour, which included a question and ajnswer period, was guest of honor at a lunch eon at which he was presented the key to the city by City Council William B. Folk, and participated in several news paper and TV interviews. Dr. James E. Cheek, presi dent of Shaw University, Ra leigh, delivered the main ad dress at the annual banquet sponsored by the United Men’s Confress on aturday evening. He told the group that the first Emancipation Proclama tion, issued by Abrham Lincoln, was a burden to the white man; and the second, represented in the current revolution, is a burden to the colored man. Taking as his subject, "The Negro’s Second Emancipation will It Be Just A Proclama tion, Or a Reality?" Dr. Cheek told the students, the Negro revolution in this country has just begun, "In, order for the current development to be a real revo lution, is it not also required that the masses of those affect ed be helped by it?" he asked, and continued, "if this is the case, the present is only a pre lude to the revolution,” he stat ed.

Dr. King (Continued from Pag* 1) founding fathers who carved this great country out of strong moral convictions and raw phy sical courage were dissenters. I therefore find it both alarm ing and disturbing to find our nation moving on an obviously unalterable course where dis sent is equated with disloyalty. "The greatness of America, in the final alalysis, is the individual right to protest for what one believes is right and to be able to engage in free speech, a right constitutionally guaranteed in the First Amend ment. > "It Is a little-known fact, but i the late President Kennedy Is reported in Arthur Schlesing er’s recent book, "A Thousand Days” to have said on an oc casion; "War will exist until that distant day when the consci entous objector enjoys the same reputation and prestige that the warrior does today,” "I find it impossible not to believe that the decision by 184 members of the State Legis lature to refuse to seat Mr. Bond had obvious racial over tones. For, by careful exami nation, I find that many of the persons who voted to re fuse to seat Mr. Bond were and are the very persons who have consistently defied the law of the land through their ir responsible acts and state ments and acts, precipitated a riot at the University of Geor gia. Moreover, there was nev er an outcry for unseating the members of the State Legisla ture who, In 1954, so blatantly advocated defying, evading, and circumventing the U. S. Su preme Court’s school desegre gation decision. "A more grievous error was made by this State Legislature when It decided that the people of Fulton County’s 136th District cannot decide who is to rep resent them in this body. Mr, Bond was elected by 82 per cent of the voters in his Dis trict, and what this Legislature has done is to arbitrarily de cide that these voters do not have a right to decide who. Is to represent them. "In light of this grave in justice, the Negro community and white persons of good will have no alternative but to en gage In creative protest. The Southern Christian Leadership Conference will join the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Com mittee and all other persons of good will ori Friday in an ex pression of Indignation in the streets. We plan to march on the legislative body that found it necessary to expel a duly elected representative. Our march will be a tribute to Mr. Bond, who on that date, will celebrate his 26th birthday an niversary. However, we will not wait until then to engage in direct action. We will begin now. This whole situation has caused us to see the urgency of going throughout the State of Georgia In a massive vot er registration campaign de signed to purge the State of political leaders with myopic vision. We will immediately embark on this campaign. "1 herewith cal! upon Gov - ernor Sanders to immediately schedule a re-election to fill the vacant legislative seat be longing to the 136th District. ! have a personal concern about the lack of representation in the 130th District because I live there. Since I have now resid ed there for more than the legal requirement for voting privi leges, I will go today to have my voting registration chang ed. Needless to say, my interest is Intensified when I reflect that a great deal of my time and efforts in the past few'years were spent toward securing vot ing rights for my people. Per sonally, I find it distressing that I and my family are now without representation in the Georgia Legislature. I there fore intend to do everything humanly possible to expedite the seating of Mr. Bond to a po sition to which he was over whelmingly voted to serve. "As another recourse to di rect action, a court action will be brought about within the next few hours to correct this situa tion. The Southern Christian Leadership Conference strong ly supports this action.

During the discussion per iods, Dr, EUvood (Mr. Presby terian) Boulware, Durham, who is executive secretary of Ca tawba Synod Council United Presbyterian Men, briefed the men on the aims and objectives of the Presbyterian Men’s Council and what a force for church building It can be if ambitiously presented, stress ing that programs must be a dapted to meet local needs and that every man must find his place in the operation of the church. The Rev. Arnold Walker, Lumberton, gave a vivid out line of Presbyterian Study ma terial and urged its use for an informed laity and growing church. John M. "Bing” Miller, Sy nod Council president, Wilson, outlined the steps for organiz ing and maintaining a live-wire council as presented by the National Council. A lion’s share of the credit for building the rejuvenating program was given to George Young and Fred Carnage, who were most active assembling the material and men.

The fact that Julian Bond is one of the first Ne groes freely elected to a form erly segregated Georgia House is cause for further grave con cern on the part of all Ameri cans, Free speech, as guaran teed In our Constitution, means nothing unless it means free speech for the unpopular cause and the dissenter. The rights of every Ameri can stand in jeopardy if the action of the Georgia House is not reversed and Julian Bond accorded the seat to which he was elected and which he has now been denied because he has exercised his right to free speech as an American citizen.

During the first years of councilmanic form of government here under Plan D, or at-large voting, common belief was that a Negro would have little or no chance to be elected as a member of the Raleigh City Council. With a strong regis tration and keen determination to place a Negro on the City Council, Raleigh’s Citizen’s Association, along with many other organizations, joined victoriously in this effort, along with about an equal number of white voters, thereby dispelling the orginally-conceived plan to block a Negro from public office. There should be little difficulty in placing another Negro on Raleigh’s City Council in that the acceptance of Mr. Winters has undoubtedly been shown with a three-term courtesy salute to him and his image. There are many competent and able candidates, who, no doubt, will arouse interest among their constituents. The more sizeable registration and far different climate in human relationships here should make it more enticing for those who may have been let down by having lost in former campaigns by very narrow margins. We believe their eagerness for office could be rekindled. We hope so. There are also many new faces, equally as able, to whom Raleigh could look for very able and enthusiastic leadership on the City Council, * * * A warm salute goes to Mr. Jack Poole, who cooly, but intelligently, used his faculties in remembering a license num ber of the get-away car. used in the Person Street robbery of First Citizens Bank and Trust Co. here Tuesday.

A redheaded visitor is present. “ Beyond the obvious facts that he has at some time done manual labor, that he takes snuff, that he has been in China, and that he has done a consider able amount of writing lately, I can deduce nothing else.' "Mr. Jabez Wilson started up in his chair . . . “ How, in the name of good fortune, did you know all that Mr. Holmes?'” Immortal words like these have brought generations of boys bolt upright in their chairs, awed by the powers of famed sleuth Sherlock Holmes, It is good news for Baker Street buffs everywhere that a new dollar hard-cover edition of The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes is now available, one of a set of sixteen classics re-illus trated and re-issued by Whitman Publishing Company of Racine, Wis. The new edition contains eight full length stories. Any adult can give a boy a copy of this book secure in the knowledge that it will fascinate him, heighten his powers of observation, and lead him happily along the paths of better literature and possibly better law enforcement. Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, who created Sherlock Holmes, set liis stamp so firmly on the detec tive story that he remains acknowledged master of the form. During his lifetime, 1859 to 1930, the murky arts of detec tion and criminology took great strides forward, due largely to the methods he suggested. It is standard procedure today to analyze soil and measure footprints. But it was enough to raise the hair on a wrongdoer's head when Holmes stalked an empty moor, examined the ground and described the cul prit: “Is a tall man, left-handed, limps with the right leg, wears thick soled shooting-boots and a gray cloak, smokes Indian cigars, uses a cigar-holder, and carries a blunt penknife in his pocket. There are several other indica tions, but these may be enough to aid us in our search.” That is writing that will last as long as there are boys. * * * UNITED FUND: putting all your begs In one ask it.
