sour greatest glory is not

COnfuciuS
POLITICIANS with more
speech than sense are some
times guilty of publicly or pri-
vately. announcing that Col
ored Americans have no real
roots in this Nation and there
fore should be D Shipped to
Africa; (2) Segregated in a
49th State, or 90 Sent by
rocket to populate the Moon.
These politicians merely need
an education of inter-racial
history. A small but interest
ing beginning can be found in
the September Ebony maya
zine.
EBONY MAGAZINE for Sep
Sember carries a story which
will certainly amaze some
paleface readers but will hard
ly cause a yawn among those
of color. The Ebony Editors
merely reState the fact that
many paleface First Families
or American pioneers are
blood relatives of Tan Yanks.
Colored Elders have been tel
ling this fact to their chill
dren for a few centuries. The
Ebony story restates some
facts about Boston's Editor of
your Guardian Weekly.

THE GUARDIAN Editor
Maude TrOtter Steward is now
in her 8Oth years and contin-
ueS quietly active in the back
ground. During her long active
struggle she and her brother
were called I'm American
names by people who didn't
know the meaning of demOa-
racy. Few of their critics re-
allied that the TrOtter's kim
ship included such democracy
pioneers as AbOlitionist Ellen
Craft and third U. S. Presi-
dent Thomas Jefferson. | ne
yer heard her mention it.

THOMAS JEFFERSON him
self was often called a radical
for daring to advocate the
equalitieS of men. The fact
that the Trotters nobly car
ried on the traditions adVo-
Gated by the man who wrote
the Declaration of Indepen-
dence from oppression should
come as no surprise to Guard
ian readers. The Trotters

The new Science Park Sta
ton of the MIA, located at
Charles Street on the Lech-
mere-Cleveland Circle-Boston
College lines, will be open for

turday morning, it was an

The new station has been
under construction for about a

the Commonwealth, provide
access to and frem the sta
ton to sidewalks on Charles

TO enter and leave the new
station without necessity of
crossing the heavily-trafhcked
streets in the vicinity. A sec
ond ramp, providing similar
access to Nashua Street has
been authorized, and will be
built later by state authorities.

10Th. Anniversary OF
Social Security Act

1t was 20 years ago this week
that the Social Security Act
became law, Gerald j. Murphy
district manager of the social
security Office reminded people
in this area today.
Generally, when people refer
to social security, they are
talking about the old-age and
survivors insurance program
under the Social Security Act,
he said.
In concentrating the goth
Anniversary of the signing of
this law, Mr.. Murphy indicated
how it is now affecting the
lives of almost all of us. He
stated that almost 8 million
persons are now receiving over
400 million dollars every month
in benefits under the program.
Over 70 million people are
now insured under the law so
that in the event of retirement
or death, they or their families
will be eligible for benefits.
The average retired worker is
now receiving about $50 a
month. However, the average
for those who have retired in

DoIan To Solve
Hubs Dilemma

Complete re-alignment of
the present debt structure by
conversion into shorter term
obligtions is the key to Bos-
tons financial future" DoIsn
declared. AS it now stands
the City of Boston continues
to pay long term, exorbitant
interest rates benefitting only
the money lenders and the
banks while adding to the tax
rate at an enormous rate. Not
only is this practise economi-
cally UnSound within immedi-
ate sight but such prctises
add to a long range initiation
airy trend being set by i'm
proper governmental financ-
ing"
Attacking the present adj
ADMINISTRATION fir what he term
ed "indolence and indiffer-
ence", Dolan said, There has
not been one radical change
or improvement in the ap-
proach to sound municipal
financing within memory of
Boston's oldest citizen. And
the present mayor has drifted
along with the tide. In the
meantime, industry grows
more fearful of the weaken
ing financial structure, our
citizens look unrewardedly for
relief in the exorbitant tax
level, and the city grows more
tider."
Dolan concluded by saying.
"Inly by a bold, sweeping ap-
proaeh to the question of Bos-
toms financial dilemma can
Boston offer a genuine induce
ment to attract new indus
try and maintain it's present
industrial organizations. If
Boston is to grow and pros
per We cannot continue to be
throttled by the money lenders
who seek only profit at the
expense of the average citi-
zen"
The Dolan for Mayor Cam
paign gained strong support

James H. Kelly and Thomas
Linohan issued a statement
calling upon Boston citizens
to support Chester A. Dolan
Clerk of the Supreme Judicia
Court in his quest for tn,
