THBCAROLINIAN-THURS.. APRIL 20.197H-PAGB2 CAMPBELL (Continued frmn page 1) "exonerated...of all...charg> HoUoway said he was acting upon what he thought was a consensus.of the members of the Executive Committee when the committee met Aprii 12. He said he thought he was follow ing the same {UDcedures which had been followed in previous, simitar cases, and took the action after he had received what he considered to be suffi cient documentation that Campbell had not abused sick leave. The sick leave charge was the only one which the Grievance Committee had not acted upon because it had giVen Campbell IS days to obtain of ficial documentation about his physical state. The main opposition to Hollo way's action at this point is from Grievance Committee chairperson Donald Harris and WCO Executive OirectiN* Doro thy N. Allen. Mrs. Allen said Tuesday afternoon she is "still enraged because I don't know what is going on. 1 have never seen anything like it.” Harris said Tuesday that the matter was discussed briefly in the April 12 meeting, but "1 know for a fact that the Execu tive Committee did not clear Mr. Campbell of abuse of sick leave." Harris said that on the other charges, the committee "did not exonerate" Campbell, but found that there was "insuffi cient evidence" to back the charges. The charges were that Camp bell had engaged in cmduct un presenting evidence. The State Bar alleges Paul violated the bar's disciplinary rules by using Ms. Little's case to (N^Nnote his law practice. It also accuses Paul of making improper statements to the press about Ms. Little's poor chances for a fair trial and about trial Judge Hamilton Hobgood. Paul has argued his first Amendment rigto allowed him to make the statements. FBI HEAD (Continued from page 1) this aroimd the world, It is very Hill in li)62.

Of the apiwoximately 7,900 special agents In the burau-all agents are designated "special" 144 are blaeks, 196 have Hispanic surnames and 94 are women. Weiiater’s announcement to recruit minoritlea is a signi ficant departure from that of the late J. Edgar Hoover-th^ agency's first and longest reigning director. Hoover, re portedly, was not particularly Interestad in hiring minorities as special agants, and was flsUy oppoaad to hiring women for these Jobs. In 1971, the last full year In which Hoovar ran the bureau, black spadal agents totaled 67, those with Hispanic sur names totaled 47, and there were no women. In 1975, under the Acting Dlrectorehip of L. Patrick Gray 3, the agency bad 104 bla^ qwdai agants, 116 with Hispa^ surnames and 39 woman.

"The chairman apparently de termined on his own as a result of the information available to him." Harris said.

Kinston, to clean up our own back yard," said Mrs. Annie Whitehead, one of the citizens who formed the Concerned Citizens of Kinston, the group that is putting on the march. Mrs. Whitehead, who ran for public office, has filed a civil suit against the city and county, charging voting fraud. "It is time for people to stand up for what is ri^t," said Mrs. Sadie K. Taylor, a grand mother who will be marching on the 22nd. The Concerned Citizens are determined to deal with the problem of white opposition, which has surfaced rapidly since the announcement k the march. Radio stations have re fused to carry information relating to the march, even though it is an event of com munity impCMiance. The news papers have not covered the pre-rally activities, even though they had been invited. The committee has had to dig into their pockets to pay for spots Ml the radio, as the white media has practically frozen out any coverage of the events. At a rally, held at the Greater Mt. Zion Missionary Baptist Church, nearly 100 people who came despite the chilly weather, were treated to a program of prayer, song, poetry and a lively discussion about the problems (tf the black CMnmunity and the upcoming events. The program, which was narrated by Mrs. Annie Whitehead, included participation by Rev. James Jones and by committee mem bers, Ms. Angela Abbott, Ms. Joyce Smith, and Ms. Sadie K. Taylor. Remarks were given by Jim Grant, of the Commis sion for Racial Justice of the United Ctaffcb of Christ, who is assisting the Concerned Citi zens. The DTogram reflected. Tfirtnefne of the program, Let's' Make The Future Better - Together, and included peronal testimony of black citizens who indicated their determination to stand together and fight for improvements in Kinston and the surrounding communities. Included among those who addressed the rally were George Graham, a black man who is running for County C^- missioner. Graham announced his support for the march and its goals. The Concerned Citizens will have another rally on the eve of the march, Friday night at the Greater Mt. Zion Missionary Baptist Church, at which time plans for the march and rally will be finalized.

Dr. Kenneth Addison of the National (^U^e of Education and Dr. Robert Terry, author of "For Whites Only” were present at the conference. Both reported that racism training has greatly assisted in the reduction of racism in Govern mental Agencies, Religious organizations and large cor porations under conditions were leadership of these institutions have been suppor tive of change. The Reverend David Simp son, executive director of the Association of Religious Com munities from Danbury, Con necticut said, "This consulU- tlon is a clear indication of a renewed interest in training u a means of addressing racism." cessful businessman was paraded before the Middle DUtricl Court and the 4th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals, both of which upheld the sentence. Some of his lawyers said Monday that they expected to file a motion for a new trial and motion for a reduction of sentence. This is said to have been jH^cated wi the results of a polygraph ( a form of lie-dectector) to which Steward subjected himself, in Boston, cm March 20, 1978. The circuit court's decision not to re-hear the case met with some surprise because one (4 the three af^teals court Judges who heard argumoits iuued a strongly worded minority opinicm In which he said be could not and would not uphold the ruling handed down by the district court Jury. City Moving Forward On Affirmative Action Hie Ralei^ City (Council in a iengthly meeting Tuesday night adopted a long-range affirmative actions plan which Councilman Wm. R. "Bill" Knight said was a "marked improvement” over previous council stances. The Council agreed to esta blish parity with the availabi lity of qualified pmons in the relevant Job raarketa. a pdnt with whlcb Knight agreed because, he said, it wai in keefdng with what 4s being demanded by the federal office of Rev«uie Sharing.

Dr. Jones chose his subject from the Book of Daniel, 5th verse, and used as his subject, Beading God's Writing. He began his message in a slow and low-bassbaritone voice, rising to a crescendo of almost tenor quality as he brought his audience to its feet, shouting, praying, testifying along with the speaker and some were seen crying. One of the most unusual events ever witnessed by this, newsman was the shouting of some 7 ministers, who occupied the pulpit with the young, speaker. These pastors of Raleigh, Wake and Johnston County churches, apparently also felt the spirit moving within them, according to their reactions. Dr. Jones promised to return in 1976 and conduct another re vival, but assured the audience that. "I will leave here tomor row carrying a museum of memories back to my home church." where he serves as senior minister. Chairman of the planning committee for the record- breaking revival services was the Rev. D. A. Peace, pastor of the Laodicea United Church of Christ. Different ministers and their choirs participated each night and the church was filled to capacity by 7 p.m. on each of the five occasions. Many wouM-be worshippers left the site after see^ that all of the seats, including extra chairs and the balcony were filled.

Members of his firm, in cluding Kareen Galloway, black female, are said to have told the conference that they could not work with outside lawyers that Paul had to repre sent him.
