2 THE CABOUKIAN RALEIGH, N. C., SATURDAY, JANUARY" 1, 1972 3 MILLION (Continued raow page ONn Headquarters In Washington, D. C. This total represents 27 ner cent of the 11 1/2 million eligi ble 18-21 year olds with the presidential election coming up in more than ten months. The total registered at this early time surprises many political analysts who had predicted that young parsons would not regis ter in large numbers. Results were obtained from thirty-two states, as well as a breakdown of party registration for fourteen. The National Young Demo crats,Weiner said, have been conducting an Intensive regis tration dive Jr. the 18-20 year old age group since June 1, 1971. They have sent teams of canvassers to assist local groups, sponsored rock con certs, held statewide and local registration workshop, and utilized telephone hanks and other techniques. Weiner also praised the many local and national groups be sides the Young de'mocrats which have contributed to what he termed, “an excellent be ginning,' He stressed, however that it is only a beginning, and that the critical period for registering young voters will be the next six months, in order for these voters to have the maximum impact on next year’s Presidential, Congressional, and local elections. Weiner cited the 2.7 tot Demo cratic to Republican registra tion ratio nationwide as proof that “the young people of America are ready for con structive, responsible change.” 20 GRAND (CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE' prioi ity given to those of minority communities usualU have insufficient loan funds.

RAPED BY (CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONF' eral offense report sheet at the Raleigh Police Department. According to the Chief the woman called Chief Lucas in Ahoskie before consulting offi cials here. She reportedly told him that she arrived at the Raleigh Bus Terminal, 217 W. Morgan Street, on Saturday at i 1 p.m., and that while inside the terminal, she became nauseated and the manager of the terminal suggested that she go out side for some air. The woman told Chief Lucas that while she was outside, she was approached b\ three color ed males, two of whom were dark skinned and the other of a light complexion. She further stated two of the men grabbed her arms and plac ed he> into a taxicab. Accord to her, the trio then took her shoe where to an apartment, where she was allegedly raped t' all three of the individuals. The Ahoskie Police Chief stat ed that the reason he was sure the woman had not been raped, “is because she has had three or four children out of wedlock and someone told me she said she was going to have sex while in Raleigh.

What is of greater significance, pre haps, is the fact that his cam paign provided an oppor tunity for raising some criti cal issues about such problems as those of poverty and ra cism which affected and con tinue to affect many of the ci tizens of this state and about the Inadequate representation, particularly In political activi ties, of many segments of our citizenry. One outcome ofthat campaign, as again you may recall, was the formation of the North Ca rolina Committee for More Re presentative Political Partici pation. This Is the group, head ed by Dr. Hawkins, which took a challenge against the North Carolina Democratic Party to the 1968 National Democratic Convention. That challenge re quested that there be at least proportionate representation, based upon race, in political representation. One of the re forms undertaken now by the North Carolina Democratic Party and the National Demo cratic Party is precisely that of ensuring adequate represen tation, based upon at least race, age and sex. A number of other significant outcomes resulted from the 19- 68 Hawkins Campaign for Gov ernor. You may remember that many persons were en couraged to come out and vote for the very first time. Some others have Indicated that they too, were inspired to run for various offices, and some who have run since that time have won. Many young persons said that they felt highly inspired in a variety of ways. In addi tion, there were, no doubt, cer tain political and other appoint ments made within this state that were at least indirectly af fected by that Hawkins Cam paign. Dr. Hawkins has made him self available, again, for the office of Governor. He is con cerned about the major issues confronting us today within our state. Those issues can be capsuled broadly under the ru brics of racism, repression, poverty, and pollution. We need not belabor the needs we have within this State to those of you who live within the State. Those of you who are outside of North Carolina are also probably well aware of many of our porblems, and, indeed, of many problems with in your states as well. The major point to be noted here is that one way to help re duce some of the problems affecting us is through in creased Involvement of repre sentatives of minority group segments In the political life of the State. Therefore, I am urging that each of you participate in this 1972 Haw’kins Campaign for Governor so that he will win in 1972 and be available to help us all. One way in which you can help is through making a financial contribution to the campaign. Political campaigns are expensive and contributions are needed. Won’t you please send in your contribution to day, or as soon as possible. All contributions, regardless of size, are welcomed. Those of you who send in $50.00 or more will b< entitled to mem bership in the “Governor’s Club,” Hawkins Campaign. In addition to sending in your contribution now, we would al so appreciate your ideas about priorities which should be es tablished in setting forth the key problems confronting us and the proposed solutions. Won’t you help here, too, by sending that information today. We hope we can count on you, then, to provide a financial con tribution to the Campaign as soon as possible; to let us know how you feel about the cri tical problems of our State and of those especially who are members of minority groups, and to urge others to become active in various ways In this Campaign. Volunteer workers are sorely needed. Finally, we hope that we can count on you, If you are a registered Demo cratic voter, to come out and vote for Dr. Hawkins in the May, 1972 Primary. Sincere ly, Ezra J, Moore, Campaign Treasurer. COORDINATOR (CONTINUED FROM PAGE OKSI was the vice-chairman of the District of Columbia Demo cratic Central Committee.

CRJ BLASTS (CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE) Since that time, we have observed with anguish the birth of a repressive attitude on the part of many of the leaders and ci tizens of this state and nation. “We are aware that this re pressive attitude has been in creasing as the struggle for justice and equality of Blacks has intensified. “Because of this, the Com mission for Racial Justice has recently designated the reform of the criminal justice and pen al system as one of its top priorities. Since that time we have experienced the wrath and repression of the criminal jus tice system as it has produced several questionable indict ments against the Rev, Ben jamin Chavis, field organizer for the North Carolina-Virginia field office of CRJ. “The Commission reaffirms its support for Rev. Chavis with the complete know ledge that he is innocent of all the charges leveled against him. We view with much sus picion the process by which we learned of the most recent war rant issued for his arrest and the attempt by Wilmington of ficials with the aid of the news media to label Rev. Chavis a fugitive from justice. We learn ed about this latest warrant issued Friday, December 17 through newspaper accounts. “The speculation and report ing that Rev. Chavis was “un derground” w'as a direct attempt to further endanger his life, despite the fact that he was seeking to return to Wil mington from a meeting in New Y'ork as soon as he found out about the charges. It is crimin al that an all-points bulletin would be issued for Rev. Cha vis’ arrest with the knowledge that he knew nothing of the out standing warrant for his arrest as an accessory to the March killing of a Black youth who neighbors said was killed by a white man. “The North Carolina-VirginLa Commission for Racial Justice is clearly one of the intended targets of the law because of the organization's success in or ganizing Blacks in Wilmington and Ayden, N.C. and Ports mouth, Va. who are determined to change the conditions under which they are forced to live. “The Rev. Charles E, Cobb, executive director of the said the Commission will con tinue Its support of the North Carolina - Virginia office and will seek to implement its program in those locations de spite obvious attempts to des troy the organization. In view of this, the Commission is hold ing a meeting In Wilmington the latter part of January to investigate conditions there. Rev. Chavis was released on SIO,OOO bail and Rev, William Land, program coordinator and Irv. Joyner, director of com munity organization were dis patched to Wilmington to mobi lize support for Rev. Chavis and the Commission’s work.” WILLIAMS (CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONF) seen in the everyday life of the average American. “I weqt to China as a Chris tian, and I have returned as a better Christian. Recognizing the religious hypocirsy of a merica, it makes me wonder whether or not God has decid ed to entrust the moral re generation of man into the hands of the non-believers because the believers have become so cor rupt, so sinful and so evil,” said Williams. Williams said that he is con vinced America’s way out of her dilemma is through the church and not governmental legislatures, foundations or vo lunteer agencies. “We are des troying God’s greatest coun try by trying to police social evils--the drug problem!, unem ployment, prostitution, and all of the other evils that are destroying the moral fi ber of American society can best be eliminated through the church."’ In my estimation, Williams continued, most of the churches we know nave been taken over and are being controlled by the power struc ture of this country. In many instances, the institutional church has become as evil and corrupt as almost any other racket. “So, it is the church where I cast my lot, and 1 call upon all of the young people of this nation, along with the older people who are for real, to stop turning their backs on the church and leaving the church. Instead, we must siege the church, turn it in the direc tion that God would have It to go, and make it what Jesus de fined it to be when He said, ‘Upon this rock I will build My church, and the gates of Heli’-~the gates of hunger, the gates of crime—*wlll not pre vail against it.’ ” SCIENTIFIC TECHNIQUES HS! has been conducting tts unique in-depth accident tavev Sij'ussoM program wince IV6?.

Dust Loaded With Mites Elkhart, lnd,— (UK) Mil lions of people around the world who are allergic to house dust could wish the tinv niite were less mighty. A certain niite family, notably one called dermatopliagoides farinae. has been found to be the main cul prit in that type of allergy. A difficulty in controlling the ailment has been that many countries and their medical professions have refused to acknowledge that thex had any such mite population, although most of the world has. It took a lot of persuasion at medical conferences throughout Europe and in South Africa, but there is now general con sent that most victims of this type of allergv are Idling the dust loaded with the mites. The persuaders were teams sent out from here by Dome l abora tories with stermeomicroscopes to give doctors a dose-up look at the crablike mites in random samples of house dust. TESTING SKIN The people from Dome, a division of Miles 1 aboratories. Inc., didn't just pose a ques tion; they had a couple of an swers, too. 1 hey distributed samples of Dome House Dust Mite Extract, for testing skin for this kind of sensitivity, and a remedy called Ailpyra! Mite Fortified House Dust for treat ' moot that has afforded spec tacular relief.

MacDonald, who also is president of Interlake.

C. v' is a Department of Defense joint service tactical communications progT.i:; . A question often asked today is this: “Are the family farms go ing to survive, or will they be swallowed up by huge corporate farms?” I wish to examine this subject, not as a political issue but as an economic question. And I wish to consider it with special re gard to the dairy industry. I begin with some fundamen tals, and I begin a long way back. During the many years past, before the scientific revolution in agriculture, farm operation was fairly simple. When to plant and harvest, knowledge of the patterns of crop and live stock production, mastery of the simple agricultural arts and skills, basic ability to buy and sell--these sufficed. It was a reasonably safe guess that most farm-raised boys w-ould have or could ob tain the requirements for suc cessful farm operation: a bit of capital, suitable manual skill, and modest managerial ability. The combination of these re sources in one man was the ne cessary cornerstone of the fam ily farm. The family farm be came a tradition, deeply imbed ded in our economic, political and social structure. The emo tional commitment to this form of agricultural organization was tremendous. But with the advance of agri cultural science, the burden of management has become in tense. The technical knowledge which an up-to-date farmer must master is much broader than Is required of most busi nessmen with equal investment. The capital neeued to operate a modern farm Is beyond the reach Future Os The Family Farm of most farm-nlst ■ Rarely do we find r.v In one man, the : ■ . e;.u sources the technical know ledge and the manage; lal ab - I ty needed to operate ■ a o’. : farm.
