BLACK POWER (CONTINUEO FROM PAGE 1) to concretize the Black Powe! mood so prevelent in the total African world. The National Black Power Conference was first convened in 1966 under Adam Clayton Po well 's leadership in Washing ton and was subsequently held in Newark with 2,00(1 delegates in attendance and in Philadel phia with 4,000 delegates in at tendance. The latter meeting was the largest and most varied of Us kind ever held In the history us Black America. The Interna tional Black Power Conference was first convened in 1969 ii> Bermuda by Roosevelt Brown, a member of the Bermudian Parliament and attracted some 2,000 delegates. This year, it was scheduled for Barbados, but due to the rising political con sciousness of Ait lean, through out the Caribbean, the Barbados government placed restrictions on the scope and dimension of the conference which were un acceptable to the conference leadership, thus forcing its can cellation. Historically, Black people have lacked the organi zational vehicles to carry out the mandates of the national and international Black Communi ties. Thus, th.is meeting comes at a mos' crucial and timely moment in oiu hi si'Tic struggle for justice and social/economic well being. We are extending an invitation to all persons of A frican descent and all Black organizations to join us in At lanta for this historic meeting y 43SL t|ss2)' DIAI 12L9317 Far Watch (f*s «»f --vi<» (im kwitinf or.* jrii humor M evict.

Rev. Sullivan is founder and board chairman of OIC. Echoing Hill’s earlier state ments, Rev. Sullivan told his audience the time is over for sit-ins and marches and black Americans are faced with prov ing their equality. He said the next step in their struggle is "economic emancipation” and that the main emphasis should be placed on becoming owners and employers rather than mere employees. Leroy R.

That is being faithful. "Unborn generations will sing your praises, Frank, al though they will never know you. These children, even when adults, will have heard of vou through their parents and other relatives, and strive to be as faithful as you were. ‘.'Saint John cast upon the forsaken Island, perhaps felt that his life would be lonely and uneventful; but the Lord’s Day came and he was in the spirit. A voice said, ‘Don’t let your' present circumstances cause you to lose your faith, John. Your trials will be forever faithful and I will crown you with life. The prerequisite Is faithfulness-no faith, no crown of life. "Frank Hinton, you were faith ful,” said the minister, in con clusion.

Oakley testified during the Teels' trial that he had held the gun that fired the fatal shot. Oakley is the senior Teel’s step-son and half-brother to Robert Larry Teel. Ir, Friday testimony, Oakley told the court he was standing over the wounded and prostrate Marrow while holding a .410 guage .22 over-and under weapon when he was jostled, causing the rifle por tion to discharge. Marrow died as a result of a single rifle wound in the head, fired from almost point-blank range, Dr. R, Page Hudson, chief state medical examiner testified early In the trial. The deceased also had two skull fracture, front and rear, he said. A state witness, William A.

ADMITS KICKING Oakley, in his testimony ad mitted he had teen kicking Mar row before the weapon dis charged. Oakley testified that the shooting was accidental. Judge Martin ordered Robert Gerald Teel and Oakley held without bond. The younger Teel was Jailed In lieu of SIO,OOO bond. They were being held at an undisclosed jail In the area. The elder Teel also was charged with assault with a deadly weapon with Intent to kill. He has been Indicted on that count earlier by a Gran ville County grand jury. The death of Marrow, an Air Force veteran and Butner hospital employe, touched off a wave of racial violence here and tension increased anew when the trial opened Monday. Young Marrow was the son of late Henry D. Marrow, Sr., and the surviving Mrs. Ivey Hunt Marrow. He was born in Gran ville County on June 8, 1947, and was slain on May 12, here. He died at Duke Medical Center in Durham. He attended the public schools of Oxfored and spent two years at Kittrell College, Kittrell.

The case went to the jury at. 4;45 p.m. Satur day. Judge Martin ordered the jurors to retire for the night after two hours of delibera tion. The jury resumed its deli berations at 9;30 a.m. Sun day and Foreman Charles M. Shaw of Raleigh, just before 11 a.m., informed Judge Mar tin a verdict had been reach ed. VERDICT REACHED About 300 persons, mostly blacks, packed the old Gran ville County courtroom at the time. As the first verdict, in the Larry Teel case, was an nounced, many of the blacks burst into wailing. Judge Martin, sternly warn ed against any further out breaks, threatening contempt of court charges. Science greeted the second not guilty verdict. A request by Solicitor W. H. S. Burgwvn, Jr. that jur ors be polled on the verdicts was granted. Eacfi juror then said "not guilty” was his ver dict. Judge Martin, in a move aim ed at heading off any court house racial confrontation, or dered spectators to leaVe one row at a time alternately from each side of the room. Deputies, ringing the area, enforced the edict. Outside, however, a group of 50 to 75 young blacks, could be heard shouting angry re marks about the verdict. They marched off afterward to a nearby black church where leaders and community re sidents held a closed meeting.

"This is definitely a break through,” commented Mayor Charles Evers in cutting a rib bon at the entrace to the new factory. He also noted that the Commercial Chemical Com pany, a bl-racta.l firm in Jack son, Miss., signed a contract last month to put up a third factory in Fayette's Industrial Park. Until the new plant dedicat ed Friday was built., the sole occupant of the Industrial Park was a woodworking facoty that employs 75. Mayor Evers noted that La vendar House, producers of synthetic fibers for wigs and garments, which employs 35 people In temporary facilities near the industrial area, is seeking financing for a much larger plant. Ed Cole, 26, Economic De velopment Coordinator and Ad ministrative Assistant to Mayor Evers, Indicated that negotia tions are currently underway with one of the largest and most profitable divisions of a major auto manufacturer to lo cate another new plant In Fay ette of even greater size. Evers was inaugurated on Ju ly 7, 1969, as the first black man ever elected mayor of a bi-racial town In Mississippi. Fayette is the county seat and only incorporated munici pality in Jefferson County, on the Mississippi River some 150 miles north of New Orleans. Os its 1,000 residents, 70 per cent are black -- although Charles Evers and his slate o 22 others ran on a platform of "Don’t vote for a black man. Or a white man. Just a good man.” The area is the fourth-poor - est county in America: more than half of the black families have incomes of less than sl,- 000 a year. According to a recent report by Robert N. Nathan Associates, a Washing ton-based research firm, "Jef ferson County is, in effect, a distillation of the most dis advantageous developments in the economic and social history of the rural South.” One etiange brought about by the Evers Administration is a new job-training center, built with Federal funds, that is hop jd can change Fayette from what the Nathan Report calls "a re sort of the destitute and pover ty-stricken.” Besides Mayor Evans and other local officials participat ing in dedication and ribbon - cutting ceremony were the fol lowing; S. D. Murphy, Presi dent; G. Boyd Vass, Executive Vice President, and James Estaline, a divisional General Manager, of ITT-Thompson In dustries in Michigan.

NINON IS (CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1) "Mr. Nixon has appointed no black to the cabinet; none to the Federal Reserve Board; none to the Supreme Court; one or two to all courts through out the United States, and none to a regulatory commission. "He has appointed few'er black assistant secretaries than Johnson and Kennedy. He has appointed no black undersecre taries in any department of the federal government. He has failed to place any black in a significant position in the White House.” Tie July 24, 1970 issue of Life, in its "Parting Shots” feature, carried a story titled "Black Policy Makers: An Edge for Nixon.” The text of the article claimed that ". . . the fact that Nixon has appoint ed nearly twice as many blacks as any other president does give him an overall edge over Kennedy and Johnson.” On the Today show of July 23, Clay Claiborne, consultant to the National Republican Con gressional Committee, made essentially the same claim. The statement first appeared in a brochure released earlier this year by the Republican Na tional Committee. Alexander, however, noted in his statement that "of the 150 (blacks) that Nixon claims, 24 are Foreign Service Of ficers who take a competitive examination. . .almost half are holdovers from tjie Johnson ad ministration. . .a few are non professionals or secretaries, by anyone's definition, not po licy-making positions.” Alexander is currently anat tornv In Washington, D.
