How ever humble one’s vocational lot may be. excellence is as pressing a need as in intellectual pursuits. The hope of being excellent in aerodynamics and electron ics is somewhat tied in with being excel lent in the humbler pursuits, but our ed ucators are not making this plain. There are no short cuts to full citizenship.

His appeal bond al so was set ai S3OO. A third Negro, Thomas Lo renzo Taylor of Philadelphia, Pa., was convicted of resist ing arrest and blocking traffic and fined >6O or 7-1 days in jail last week. He is free un der S2OO appeal bond. Police officers testified that Taylor operated a sound truck urging Negroes to vote for “Black Panther” candidates who were defeated in the Nov. 8 general election. After Tay lor was arrested, the officers testified, Carmichael and House tried to lead a maich on city Hall. Wearing army combat boots and an olive-drab field jacket, Carmichael was allowed to con duct his own defense when Rus sell ruled that Don Jelinek, a white civil rights attorney from New York, was not licensed to practice in Alabama. Carmichael called Mayor Joe T. Smithennan as a witness. He denied lunging at the Mayor during the demonstration and he and Smitherman engaged in a running debate. Russell cautioned jar michael several times about making remarks about “police brutality and racism.” House, also serving as his own attorney, was rebuked by Russell for his statements as a witness. “I had no intention of starting a riot and I know that SNCC people don’t start riots, It’s police brutality and suppression that star riots,” he said. “That’s enough of that,” said Russell. MEREDITH (Continued from page I) vancement of Certain Colored People.” Moore, a militant leader, called a recent NAACP state ment denouncing black power a “complete surrender to the forces of bigotry.” Some Negro leaders, he said, are “leaders without follow ers.” Many current Negro leaders are not really leaders “because they are chosen by the white man. They are the errand boys of segregation,” he added. Singling out leaders of the Ur ban League and the NAACP, Moore said there was a ser ious doubt “that the Urban League ever represented Ne groes.” Unless Negro groups “get down to the grass-roots level, they will be doomed,” he sail, NIGHT CLUBS (Continued from page l) Blue Light Inn, 400 E.

The rank and file felt that the ban was the result of work done, in the area, by undercov er men.

The foregoing are some of the facts of survival for the hard pressed Negro. The so-called Negro leader who is so blinded by emotions that he would further pose more threats of riots as a means of backing the white man down in his prejudicial planned course of defeating the Negro in his just battle for full citizenship, is out of in tellectual and moral gas! He is trying to say something instead of having something to say. Booker T. Washing ton had a program, and although it was rejected, it vividly dramatizes whatw we mean by saying that the current Negro leader has no program. Negroes are suf fering the lack of the facts of survival! local hospital, where his condi tion was pronounced not too ser ious.

Gibbons noted that committee authority is re-established at the beginning of each Congres sional session. He indicated that Powell could lose more power than ever. During the la. c ’ session, t’ ■ committee vote-i not to Powell sit on legislation the committee wanted passed. At the same time, Powell won a Congressional victory as a federal judge In New Yfk dis missed a suit asking t Pow ell’s re-election to Congress be declared invalid. The suit was brought by Las sen L. Walsh, Republican can didate in Harlem, who lost to Powell by a 4-to-l margin in the Now 8 election. Raymond Rubin, Walsh’s at torney, had charged Powell was ineligible for a term In the House because he was not an inhabitant of the state at the time of his election, U. S. District Court Judge Dudley B. Bonsai dismissed the case, leaving it up to the House of Representatives to decide on the legality of Powell’s election. And a predominantly Demo cratic Congress was hardly likely to dismiss one of Its Democratic Representatives at a time when the Democrats’ ma jority in Congress had been pruned in a Republican come back. The attempt to have Powell ousted as congressman was linked strongly to a libel case which has been plaguing Powell for several years. Rubin, Walsh’s attorney, was also the attorney of Mrs. Esther James, whom Powell was con victed of libeling during a 1960 television broadcast. Observers said the suit a galnst Powell may have been an attempt to force the congress man to return to New York and pay a $164,000 judgmeri! to Mrs. James - or go to jail, as di rected by the New York Su preme court. Powell had been told to start serving a 30-day jail sentence on charges of criminal con tempt of court in the libel case. The finding of criminal con tempt made it impossible for Powell to return to New York at any time without being jail ed - and also made it ques tionable whether he could, un der the circumstances, be con sidered a resident of New York. Powell’s whereabouts, mean while, were not known. He pos sibly was i.i Bimini on a fish ing trip or could be in the U~ nited States --but not in New York. Meanwhile, a lawyer for Rep. Powell went into the Court of Appeals, the state’s highest court, in an attempt to have one of four jail sentences pending against the congressman re versed. The seven judges of the court reserved decision on the appeal. SWEEPSTAKES (Continued from past 1) nieces and nephews.

The evidence showed that Lane used threats of the girl’s life, if his instructions were not obey ed. The defendant is alleged to have directed Raynor to drive to Andrews Chapel Church, off the Rowan Rd., where she was alleged to have been rap ed twice. According to her testimony, she finally got the pistol and pulled the trigger four times, but nothing happen ed. When Lane and Raynor dis covered she had the pistol, a struggle began. At a previous hearing, it was brought out that it was a toy pistol. During the mlxup is said to have stuck his thumb in Lane’s eye. Lane is alleged to have jumped out of the car. Miss Warren lock ed the door and they sped away. There was no other evidence and Raynor’s lawyers agreed that the plea guilty by the de fendant was all they had to offer. Judge Albert W. Cow per questioned Lane as to whether he knew the plea could result In a life sentence and he told him he did. The judge is said to have also asked him if he were satisfied with his lawyers and replied that he was. With the evidence closed, Soli citor Walter Britt said that the State was willing to accept the plea. The plea was also ac ceptable to the girl’s mother and father. Judge Cowper sentenced Lane to life imprisonment. HENDERSON (Continued from page 1) have been around all the time. Many other factors were op erative in the losses suffer ed by Democrats which cannot be attributed to the so-called “backlash.” “Black power,” meanwhile, came off about as badly, as Dr. Henderson and M. Leo Bo hanon, Regional Urban League director, assailed it. Dr. Henderson condemned “the advocacy of black power.” The concept is “nonsensical and unworkable,” he said. “Negroes cannot win In the struggle for full equality by any thesis of separation or by try ing to go it alone. Negroes need whites and whites need Negroes.” He added, however, that “black power” will continue to appeal to the Negro masses un til needed reforms are made. Bohanon asserted that the “black power” slogan caused misunderstanding and diver sion of attention from real Is sues. Speaking at a forum on “Black Power, ” In St. Louis, Bohanon noted, however, that Negroes need and want great er economic and political strength.

Those mis guided souls unwittingly are like birds that would foul their own nests... "Offenders against our laws are brought to trial In the open where the accused may con front his accusers, where the rights and liabilities of peo ple may be determined In the light of day and not In the darkness of night; and where official conduct Is subject to public scrutiny. “Trials conducted in secrecy , behind closed doors by uni ; dentified prosecutors are In ; compatible with human free dom. a SENTENCED TO DTE - New Haven, Conn.: Arthur J.
