THE CAROLINIAN RALEIGH. N, C\. SATURDAY. JULY 24, 1971 16 News Am! V‘. .. - BY J. B. HARREN AGONIZING WITH AGNEW .ROCKY MOUNT - This na tion-even the world-has agnoiz ed much at the various “hot” sayings by Vice President Apiro Agnew as he travels and makes utterances calculated to disturb friends and foe alike. His latest pop-off after visit ing portions of Africa, where the Blacks largely determine their own destiny, is another instance of his mouth oscillat ing before his thought mechan ism has considered all angles of the subject. One wonders why he does not apologize for some of his statements? Apparently surprised at the progress of the Africans at self government, Mr. Agnew lam basted his own American Ne groes by saying that they (we) had a lot to learn from the Af ricans -■ instead of complaining 50 much. Millions will wonder if the lo quacious Vice Prexy considers that the Africans are running their own government in the a reas he visited, while the A merican Blacks are a part and parcel-supposedly-of the Ame rican government and have only a minute part in the determina tion of what laws and regulations we live by and under?? Thus it is that Blacks here in America must keep continual ly prodding, pleading and de manding a greater share in the American Plan of Freedom and Independence. Somebody high up should so inform Mr. Agnew, even if they intend to drop him as Mr. Nixon’s running-mate in 1972, as reported or intimated several times in the press. Neither the GOP nor the DEMS will make much progress with the Black vote so long as they continue to ignore their constitutional rights in all areas of American life!! Meanwhile, President Nixon has made a Iqng-overdue ges ture in attempting to reconcile differences with Red China and other nations as well. Their entry into the family of the United Nations has been long past due. We concur most heartily with the Charlotte city officials who dismissed an employee wno, al legedly was the leader of the N. C. Knights of the Ku Klux Klan, because his philosophy and role as an official of the housing department would naturally clash. Certainly, it would be very hard for Harold Murray, grand dragon of the N. C. KKK to deal fairly with Negroes because he admittedly must not believe in equality of the races, regardless of his being physically impaired. It is sometimes too difficult to comprehend the role of the Civil Liberties Union as it de fends cases like Murray's. Have you noticed the uproar ince the United Presbyterian Church USA gave SIO,OOO to the Angela Davis defense fund? There are hundreds of Blacks who do not sanction that contri bution. Many of us do not feel that we should defend a Black regardless of what they have done. MRS.

A THOUGHT “Don’t be afraid to go out on a limb for God that’s where the fruit is.” Thi Ridity Os A UiflthM Orton BY REV. WALTER PHILLIPS SUNSET ACRES THE NEGRO SPEAKS APEX - Preparing our 18- year-olds, the generation of the fifties, for the awesome respon sibility of political and social assimilation, is or should be the task of the older leaders who have contributed something to the contemporary American scene. Benjamin Elijah Mays was born in Epworth, S. C. where he graduated from high school and college at the South Carolina State College; from there he went to Bates College, Maine where because of scholastic ex cellence, he was elected to Phi Beta Kappa. He received the M. A. and Ph. D. after long years of study at the University of Chicago. He began his teaching career at Morehouse College, Atlanta, Ga., where he was e lected President in 1940. Dr. Mays was the principle speaker on Founder’s Day, Livingstone College, senior center of higher learning of the African Metho dist Episcopal Zion Church, Sal isbury, 1964, “We spend millions,” said Dr. Mays. “We demonstrate, we sit-in, picket, boycott, goto jail, and some have died trying to integrate and desegregate .the United States. For what? To what end? The press, the radio, and tel evision have devoted more time to this question in the last ten years than to any other single topic. Congress is wrangling o ver It. When the courts opened public schools and universities, gold courses and swimming pools, abolished segregation on dining cars, In inter-state tra vel, abolished the white pri maries - these actions did not Integrate any place or thing. They desegergated them.” Dr. Mays was right. Integration Is still a long way off, for it is of the spirit, the heart, not of the head. The reason sc many Black youth/ are in tjie un employed line? Why they can fee served In so many places, and not work therein" busegre- " ” " ’ ! t''f'T;ition. Wo must mi economic •n un . Zebulon BY MRS.
