FAYETTEVILLE - The
Parks and Recreation Commis
sion recently approved plans to
build two recreation centers;
one In the Massey Hill area,
and the oilier In the Raleigh
Road area; both iri predominant
ly white neighborhoods. I am
not against building centers in
these areas. They need these
centers, but these areas haven’t
been in the city limits of Fay
etteville as long as the Robeson
St, and Moore St. areas. Too
much money has been spent
in buying property on the Gold
Coast and other areas that have
been recently developed and
voted into the city of Fayette
ville.
The people in the Robeson
St. area tried In vain to get
the old Winslow St. USO build
ing only to be told It wasn't
worth repairing, But it has
been remodeled into a beauti
ful Cumberland County Work
Shop for the handicaps. We do
not want Negro or white cent
• ers, but we want centers with
in distance of each communi
ty. There are too few meet
ing places in Negro neighbor
hoods.
The good baby gets the praise,
but the crying baby gets the
candy. We have overplayed
the old good will theme. Our
children have no place to go,
but school and church, and they
are becoming tired ofboth. The
sermons on Sunday are good and
school is ok, but our children
spend less than a third of their
time in school and church, and
neither practices what it
preaches. Our churches do not

reach the masses, and our
schools do not as yet fully
train our children for the so
ciety they are to work and play
in. Our schools teach demo
cracy while they demonstrate
“Uncle Tom,” and too many
churches keep pushing a land
where every day will be Sun
day. For the benefit of those
who might think I am against
church, I am not, but if they
have done their job well, why
is our nation so spiritually
weak? If you say our schools
have done a good job, why are
our youth so poorly equipped
for life.
We have got to find other
sources of help, for our chil
dren. We need workshops. We
need centers, not so much for
play as for training. We have
no place to get the real facts
of life. Where can a boy or
girl turn to, if he or she does
not attend church or school?
He or she can only get pro
fessional service if able to pay.
The separate, but. equal schools
left our children sadly lacking
in training and experience. We
need centers everywhere to
train our children to want the
good things of life, and to fight
for them. We will not get
everything we ask for, but we
will get nothing if we don’t
ask. We should not only ask
for centers, we should demand
them. Let's get busy and build
at least one good building in
each community. Unless some
thing is done for our communi
ties, let’s block the building of
centers in all-white neighbor
hoods.

FAYETTEVILLE -- There
have been many complaints
coming from Negro soldiers at
Fort Bragg lately. These com
plaints stem from treatment
with reference to promotion and
demotion. One soldier was tried
in civilian court and found not
guilty, but when' he returned
to camp he was treated as if
he had been found guilty. Many
say they have written their
congressmen. The Long Hill
Linden Branch of the NAACP
has several cases to be investi
gated,
