Prepared By Members of The
Fayetteville Youth Council
By DAVID S. FREEMAN
A wi.se Frenchman once said,
“If youth know; if age couid "
What he meant was that when
you are young, you don't know
what to do. Then, when you
have got old and experience
and observation have taught
you answers, you are tired,
frightened; you don't care, you
want to be left alone as long as
you yourself are safe, you no
longer have the capacity or the
will to grieve over any wrongs
but your own.
So you, the youth, have the
power to change the world, rid
it forever of war and injustice
kand suffering, provided you
Know' how, know what to do.
(L And so according to the old
Frenchman, since you can't
know what to do because you
are young, then anyone with a
head full of white hair, should
be able to tell you.
What threatens us today is
Fear. Not the atom bomb nor
even fear of it, because if the
bomb fell on us, all it couid do
would be to kill us. which is
nothing, since in doing that, it
would have robbed itself of its
only power over us- which is
fear of it, the being afraid of it.
Our danger is not that. Our
danger is the forces in the
world today w’hich are trying to
use man’s fear to rob him of
his individuality, his soul, trying
to reduce him to an unthinking
mass by fear and bribery-giving
him free food which he has not
earned, easy and valueless
money which he has not worked
for; the economics or ideologies
l political systems, cornnun.-t
or socialist or democratic,
whatever they wish to call
themselves; the tyrants and the

call themselves, who would

baffled and afraid, afraid of, or

So be not afraid to raise your
voice for honesty and truth and
compassion, against injustice
and lying and greed. Why not
come to a Youth Council
meeting and let your opinions
1)0 heard. How can we he p
solve the problems of today's
youth if everyone fears to
speak out?

been busy trying to get its
purpose over to the public. Last
week we presented a program
on Opinion Line and on the
Human Relations Radio Show.

For $Bl4 Million
FAYETTEVILLE - Fayette
ville State University president,
Charles Lyons, Jr., presented
capital budget requests total
ing $8,507,000 to the State Ad
visory Budget. Commission here
last Wednesday morning.
Commission members got a
tour of FSU facilities on cam
pus and other land t! a' they
would like to acquire. FSi’s
primary request is for a Aca
demic Building because of
classroom space shortage.
Fayetteville State's largest
request is $2,745,000 for a new
Science Building. The Academic
Building would cost $2,405,000.
In addition, a 450-bed dormi
torv was requested costing SI,-
"55.000.
President Lyons told the
commission that five degree
programs and one minor have
been approved to take effect
in the fall of 1971.
‘•With the accelerating
growth of industry in our area
we believe that this institution
should be training much of the
skilled personnel needed by in
dustry as well as producing first
rate teachers forpublic schools
and candidates to enter the pro
fessions and government.”
“With the enrollment in
creases which: we can already
see from statistics for the Fall
1970 freshman class and with the
phasing in of the Fort Bragg
Program we are talking about
doubling the enrollment of this
institution in a rather short
period of time. Thus the needs
h ere presented represented
basic minimum requirements to
begin to operate this expanded
program,” President Lyons
said.
FSU lists the academic build
ing as its first priority, fol
lowed by the air conditioning
oi all buildings ($287,000), sci
ence building, student dormi
tory, convert portion of old
library into communications
center ($205,000), acquisition

Generalized phrases like
“easy credlt” and “liberal
terms” have been showing up in
ads more often lately. One rea
son is that such phrases get
around a requirement of the 19-
69 Truth-In-Lending Law that if
any credit term is advertised,
all relevant term must also be
included such as tie number
of payments, the cash price
and the annual percentage rate.
Some advertisers don’t want
to spell out those details in
their ads.
To prevent merchants from
luring shoppers with promises
of “easy credit” that isn’t easy
at all, the Federal Trade Com
mission recently established
standards for the use of that
and similar phrases. This is
what the FTC says the terms
should mean. A customer re
ceives: credit without having
his credit ratings or ability
to pay checked, even if he’s
known as a be low-average cred
it risk. 2. Prices for mer
chandise bought on “easy ci ed
it” terms are no more than if
purchased in a nearby store for
cash or credit, 3. Finance
charges and annual percentage
rates are no higher than for
buyers with acceptable credit
ratings. Also, down payments
are low and repayment periods
the same as for customers with
good credit ratings.
If you have any credit prob
lems, please contact Mr. Wil
liam Davis at Cumberland City
Federal Credit Union 323 Per
son Street, or Phone: 483-2732.
