According to the government watchdog agency, Job Corps trainees did little, if arty better, in the labor market than poor .■out’ s without such training. The GAO, which released a 14-month study of the anti poverty war, noted that it cost $8,300 to tiain one Job Corps youth in 1008. “In the light of the cost!)' tiaining provided by the Job Corps,” the study said, “we doub t that the resources now be ing applied to this program can be full) justified.” GAO said its doubt it s “■..‘.specially applicable to the (Job corp s) conservation centers,” where trainees have cl cn e con servat ion and con - struction work. This kind of work does not provide the kind of training needed to compete in the labor market aftei graduation, GAO added.

Progress Os NAACP Outlined DURHAM-Mrs. Ruby Hurley, director, Southeastern Region, NAACP wit! offices in Atlanta, spared no words or dodged any issues as she spoke to an al most capacity house of ‘'Free dom. Fund” diners in the ball room of the Durham Hotel Mon da) night of this week. “We admire the youth and we are as impatient as they are about not having reached full freedom. We would like for them to stud) the history of the NAACP for the past 60 tears and find out how far we have come. I sat that we need to do more, even if a little of it is wrong, but I don’t see de stroying anything unless we can replace it with something bet ter,” she admonished. She told of how the NAACP had opened door after door in many fields of endeavor to wake up and find that the Negro had no one to enter the door. She seemed greatly disturbed that not enough Negroes were mak ing application for the better jobs that are now available. She also warned the young people that it was not a matter of how much, violence they could bring to bear, ’cut how muci pre paredness the' could come up with in order to take their places in a true freedom society. Mrs. Hurley was not too sure that “Soul CiA” would beat, kind of panacea foi the ills th.at lie set Negroes in a pre judiced society. When asked about the phantom cit' she had the following to say: “Let us not kid ourselves. The minute you say this or that is being promoted by or for Negroes, the average white man draws hack and many liberals find it convenient to not be counted”. It was hei thinking that “Soul City” is a commercial venture and" ti at it should be so ac cepted. She felt that it should not be billed as a haver, for Negroes or a place to vet : ich quick. She called upon North Caro lina to take a new look at it self and regifd itself for the tilings that lie ahead in this struggle for freedom. She said North Carolina should retire Sam J. Ervin and Illinois shotil i retire Everett McKinley Dirk sen. She pictured them as two {See Mirs. lit Hit'. I> 2) 10th Nero A warded Honor Medal WASHINGTON - (NPI- - The late Sgt. Rodney M.
