News & Views BY J. B. HARREN ROCKY MOUNT—It has long been said that whatever happens “up North” soon finds its way Southward. It now seems that all the isms which have plagued the civil rights movement in the north are now threatening to disrupt the reasonable harmony and effectiveness of Tarheelia’s NAACP Conference which has been led by Kelly Miller Alex ander Sr., for more than 18 years is about to hie confused by the reported “Challenge” of Rev. W.E. Banks of Thomas ville, who has (supposedly) been one of Alexander’s loyal sup porters. Sincere NAACP work ers are much concerned that this alleged disruption should manifest itself at a time when organizational unity was never more greatly needed than now. This announcement comes closely on the heels of a previ ous announcement that Alex ander’s son had been dropped from the presidency of a youth and college chapter and was replaced by a Chicago youth. The senior Alexander said the pro cedure used was contrary to NAACP regulations. Such ac tions indicate that TarHeelia students are wanting greater militancy in the freedom fight. It is to be hoped that this move by Me. Banks and the alleged DEAR SALLY BY SALLY SHAW' DEAR SALLY: When I was 16 I eloped with the boy I was going steady with, hut the mar riage was immediately annulled by my parents —for which I am nosy very thankful. I sub sequently met and married a much finer man, and now at the age of 24 am the proud mother of two darling children. What I am wondering now is wheth er I should tell my children at an early age about my early escapade, so as to eliminate the possibility of their being shocked should someone else later tell them the news. Plen ty of people know alx jt lt. I’ll appreciate your advice on this. DEB. DEAR DEB: Yes, I think it would be wise to tell your chil dren about this when they're be tween about the ages of 8 and 10, ir: as gentle and casual a manner as possible. It’s al ways unwise to try to keep such things secret - especially when, as in your case, somany others are in the know. * * * DEAR SALLY: We have some very dose friends whose daugh ter suddenly eloped about three weeks ago. Now we have receiv ed an invitation to a reception which is being given by the girl’s parents in honor of the newly wed couple, and we’re wonder ing now whether we owe the cou ple a gift just as we would have if we had been invited to a “many ministers” backing him will not materialize and that the convention will repudiate such efforts. Kelly Alexander’s name car ries much weight in national NAACP circles over the nation. So why would one or more of his cabinet members want to deprive the nation of his office and the prestige it carries? Besides being a life member of NAACP, Alexander has been a member of the national board for many years. Others who have wrought well for as long or longer than Kelly Sr. include Bull City’s legal light Conrad O. Pearson, Charles A. McLean, Mrs. Bea trice Garrett Burnette, Mrs. U.S, Brooks, Eli Crossen and ye scribe (J.B. Harren). Later arrivals in addition: Preachei Banks have been Revs. Dunston, Felder, Oscar W. Berwick, J.T. McMillan and Mrs. Willie M. Winfield, Mrs. Millie Veasey, Rev. J. W’ard, Mrs. Haveleigh White and Dr. Grady Davis. Due to Illness this writer will be absent this year for the first time from a convention. Here's hoping the N. C. NAACP does not spoil its long standing record of sticking closely to liberal intelligent NAACP policy which has been the best since 1909. church wedding. H. L. J. DEAR H. L. J.: In the first place, a wedding gift is never something “owed.” It’s a sym bol of your fei*lmgs for the persons involved, arid in this case if your feelings of friend ship for the girl’s parents are* strong enough, you will certain ly wish to give their daughter a wedding gift. DEAR SALLY: Our son re cently graduated from law col lege, and is now practicing. Since the beginning of a law practice is usually rather slow, a couple of our relatives visit ed his office for legal counsel, in order (as they put it) to build up his confidence. How ever, when he sent them a mod est bill for his services, they became very huffy and refused to pay them. Now what can he do about this? STANDERS BY. DEAR STANDERS-BY: He should write off these “dead beat” relatives and learn from the experience. Hereafter, when any relatives come to him for professional advice, he should make it clear in advance that there is a fee attached to his services. This should not be awkward or indelicate... it’s just plain good sense 1 * # * DEAR SALLY: I’m a woman of 43 who was widowed sev eral months ago.
