owned, operated or managed. Too long
have we wasted our franchise Too long
have we been hopeful and not factual.
Too long have we believed that because
a man is a Negro that we automatically
have all things in common. Too long
have we overlooked respect for our fel
lowman.
It is worth pointing out here that there
are only a reputed 11 million Jewish
people in the whole world. There are
some Sy 2 million or half the entire Jew
ish population of the world in Ameirca.
And believe it or not this 5 X / S million of
185 million Americans control 38 percent
of the entire we4lth of this country. This
is proof partial of what a religious be
lief can do for a people who are fiercely
competitive, even among themselves. Vet
they are just as ardent in the one thing
which is their salvation: regards for a
fellow Jew.
We may never, as a race, accomplish

outnumbered. We think the time has
come that Negroes pick their candidates
and not pick one. but pick several.
Negroes would do well to study the
political structure of big business. We
happen to know many of them whose
president is a Republican and the chair
man of the board is a Democrat. That
makes political sense. It does not matter
what party is in office, these companies
have a friend at court. Certainly Ne
groes should take the second look at all
the candidates who will be offered in
the corning campaigns. If the sheriff has
acclaimed Jim Clark as a symbol of
good law enforcement, whether he is run

many of the things other races have a
chieved. But we can begin to believe in
each other as a race more than we pres
ently do. This may launch ua at least in
the right direction. Twenty-one million
people or about an eleventh of the entire
American population is a tremendous
bloc of sameness. In the American cul
ture it’s about time this bloc became
more solid in behalf of its own preserva
tion and progress through the democrat
ic process.
People like Mrs. Veasey help build
this great potential into a reality. All of
us should stand behind the office an-"*

We owe her this gratitude for her cour
ageous stand against the evils from with
out and when they arise from within

voted against. If the sheriff has condon
ed the beating and mauling of a Negro
by two of his deputies and given them
a vote of confidence by not even sus
pending them while the matter was be
ing investigated, he certainly should be
voted against.
The Negro's economic future lies in
the proper use of the ballot, not for par
ty bosses and political machines. His
influence and affluence in politics will
not be determined by the power-struc
ture of any given party. These dements
will be determined by his participation
as it affects his constitutional rights as
a citizen and not as a pawn of any party.

Sessions will begin Friday,
March 4, at 6:15 p. m. and con
tinue through Sunday, March 6,
until 6 p. m.
The convention's theme:
"Make Disciples of People of
All Nations," is centered a
round Jesus’ words at Mat
thew 28;19, 20, "Go therefore
and make disciples of people
of all nations, baptizing them.."
The program will include
talks, demonstrations and
round-table discussions on how
this discipling work may be
more efficiently done. During
the past fiscal year Jehovah’s
Witnesses world-wide carried
on this discipling work in 19?
different lands and 164 differ
ent languages.
The circuit’s progress over
the past 4 months will be re
viewed, and Saturday’s program
will include baptismal arrange
ments for new witnesses.
The featured event of this
Tarboro conference will be a
public discourse Sunday, March
6 at 3 p. m, by the district
supervisor, C. G. Thompson,
on the subject: "Does God Have
Influence in This Twent ie t h
Century?’’
Ail sessions will be open
to the public, Taylor said.
Hospila! Suits
(Continued from Page 1)
filed last Friday against ail
white Rex Hospital, in which she
was also a plaintiff.
Attorney Samuel S. Mitchell,
through the Legal Defense and
Educational Fund of the Nation
al NAACP, filed the first suit
last Wednesday in Federal Dis
trict Court, seeking to perma
nently enjoin Wake County
Memorial Hospital from dis
criminating against Negroes.
This suit was filed in behalf
of eight. Raleigh citizens, in
cluding two CauscasiAn minis
ters, the Revs, Collins Kilburn
of the United Church, and Frank
Hutchinson, pastor of the all-
Negro congregation of Davie
Street United Presbyterian
Church.
Rex Hospital was charged
with racial discrimination in a
suit filed in the same court
Friday by five Negroes.
The court was asked to en
join the hospital from continuing
a policy of, "excluding, deny
ing or discouraging the admis
sion of the plaintiffs and others
of their class."
Attorney Mitchell filed this
suit on behalf of the Rev, Sam
uel E. NeSmith, his wife, Mrs.
Betty White NeSmith, who is
expecting a child; Mrs. M. D.
Veasey, the Rev. Willie B. Lew
is, and Junious N„ Sorrell.
The Rex suit contends that
Mrs, NeSmith is in immediate
need of medical care and hos
pital treatment and desires to
obtain these services at Rex
without racial distinction or
discrimination.
Rev. and Mrs. NeSmith and
family reside on Oberlin Rd.,
which is far closer to Rex than
to Wake Memorial.

Give Mural
The Rev. Charles L. Herron,
in gratefully accepting a murai
from three students of the J. W.
Ligon High School Monday said
that it was placed on the wall In
the Education Coordinator’s of
fice because one of the objec
tives of the North Carolina
Council of Churches Migrant
Project is to help implement
the educative process by instill
ing, within the migrants, a de
sire to improve their lowly
status.
Another goal, declared the
Project Director, is to encour
age among the migrant people
themselves responsible and
democratic organization for
self-help In economic and civic
pursuits. Mr, Herron said
that another objective is to en
courage social acceptance and
participation in all of the com
munity activities, thus helping
to break the continually of liv
ing as individuals less than hu
man, in the sub-standard socie
ty.
It is becoming moreapparent,
observed the director that at
titudes are changing toward the
migrant, varying from hostility
and fear to mild acceptance be
cause of great concern in their
behalf.
"This gift," he told his young
friends, "is encouraging in that
it is tangible evidence of your
interest in our program and is
typical of many of the communi
ties throughout the state where
we have been privileged to
work. ’’

"The slow pace of Integra
tion in the Southern and bor
der States is in large measure
attributable to the manner in
which free choice plans - the
principal method of desegre
gation adopted by school dis
tricts in the South- have op
erated, *’ said the Commission

of commitment to the moral,
legal and religious aspects of
the brotherhood of man.
Dean Robinson pointed out
that much to the apparent mis
understanding of some seg
ments of the community, there
is no such person as "the Ne
gro leader." He indicated for
example, that one might be con
sidered a leader in some par
ticular situation but in others,
flatly no. He commented, "I
think Negro leadership today is
like leadership among other
ethnic groups, that is, it is di
verse, in' other . words, there
is no such person as 'the Ne

Dr. Robinson observed that
brotherhood has not been re
alized ipse facto, by the pass
age of the Civil Rights Act of
1964, nor the Voting Rights Law
of 1965. "I think we would
generally agree that legisla
tion is very, very important,
but that brotherhood will not
be attained by legislation a
lone.” He pointed to the
fact that each one of us needs
to be an ambassador of good
will.
Dean Robinson pointed out
that in our attempts to fos
ter brotherhood in this state,
it should be kept in mind that
about 24 per cent or 1,200,000
of the persons in North Car
olina are Negroes.
Brotherhood in this country
has tremendous implication for
America all over the world. He
stated, "During the past sum
mer, I had the opportunity of
serving as a U. S. Fulbright
Fellow in India and also had
the opportunity of traveling in
Thailand, Hong Kong, and Ja
pan. I found myself constant
ly on the defensive, and I think
rightly so, under the circum
stances, in trying to clarify
America's Ideals as well as her
practices as they related to
brotherhood.” He continued by
saying, "Believe me when I
say, not only does brotherhood
require an effective working to
gether of all ethnic groups in
this country, but from the stand
point of national survival it is
a must,”
