Africa And A Broader Partnership

Among those aspects of the African scene which
are being transformed by the wind of change"
must list the concept of blacksmith partnership"
Heretofore partnership has been regarded as means
Of bracal mutiracia rule in lands which the black
thinks of his. More and more it now appears
as means for helping the black man to rule with
maximum enlightenment and with that regard for racial
minorties which is hallmark of democratic govern
ment
United Nations Secretary General Dag Hammarsk-
lod is scheduled to visit South Africa in July to dis
cuSs the UNs resolution against racial discrimination
In that country. This will remind many that Mr. Ham
marskjold is also promoting UN plan to provide edu-
catonal aid for Africans who must plunge into dipo-
matte careers as their nations become independent
Here, then, is one facet of the new partnership
1t is further highghted by United States efforts to &C
quaint more African leaders with Western ideals as

ustraed by the fact that Congoese students have had
to return from the United States to the Congo which
is now in political turmoil prior to gaining independ-

But doubtless they come back to the United
States, and it is good to know that the opportunities
for them to do will not be less but greater as the

The dangerous image created by
Negro Editors the Mississippian
said, is that image that the Negro
| is engaged in a flight" with White
people, particularly those in the
south over the question of racial
Indignation.
The Mississippi Editor asserted
further that it is the duty of the
Negro Newspaper Editor to ac-
quire that knowledge of world his
tory that will enable him to point
out to Negro readers the invention
of the idea of White Supremacy,
and the distortion of education by
the British to justify and rational
ize British colonialism, and the
distortions of history and educa-
ton in order to achieve world COM
munism, especially in the fields of
human relations where the COM
munist exposition of psychology
and sociology would make the AM
erican Negro believe that he suf-
fers some kind of psychological
fits when not in the company of
White people whether welcomed,
invited, or not.
Currently he said, the American
! Negro is the victim of the Com
munist distortion of psychology and
sociology which is causing him to
waste his money and substance in
the effort to achieve Indignation
but his present conduct is doing
nothing towards developing a fav-
orable American Public Opinion in
his support.
Moreover the Editor said, had
the Negroes of this country been
putting the vast sums of money
which they have expended in the
quest for dubious Indignation into
the things that contribute to eco
nomic independence, they would be
much farther on the road to full
Indignation into American life. Try
otherwise as they may, the editor
said, the Negro must finally come
to learn that economic independ-
ence has been the fore-runner of
Indignation for every racial and ma
tionality group identified in the
American population.
Concluding the Editor said, there
is every evidence, despite the an
cient warning that "whom the Gods
would destroy they first Make
Mad", that the Negro has gotten
mad because of his failure to
achieve immediate Indignation, a
madness that is serving only to fur
Their blacken the image.
The real image of the Negro, the
Editor said, should be that of a
proud American standing alone or
in the company of other braced by
the assurance of his own pride and
virtues. Unless the Negro News
paper Editors can create for the

Veterans n eWs

Q-I'm going to take evening
college courses under the Korean
CT Bill, and | realize I'll have to
spread out the school work over
quite a period, since l have a full
time job. How much time do /
have to complete training? l was
discharged in mid-1958.
A-Korea veterans have eight
years from discharge or until JAN
uary 81, 1865, whichever comes
earlier, to complete training. In
no event may a veteran take train
ing after January 81, 1865.
OIL understand that no new CT
insurance is being issued except to
Korea veterans who have some
service-connected disabilities, but
what other conditions must be met
for veteran to be eligible?
A-To be eligible for new CT
insurance, a Korea veteran must
have a service-connected disability
so rated by the VA, and must ap-
ply within one year from the date
VA rates him service-connected.
Q-Who gets the money allow
ance from VA where a child is
taking courses under the War Or
phans Education program, the
student or the parent or guard
ian?
A-Usually the allowance is pail
to the parent or guardian of the
young man or woman going to
school. There are, however, cases
where the money may be paid to
the young person directly.
Q-My wife and l both signed
the note for my CT loan. Can we
both be released from liability to
VA, if we sell our house? The
buyer we have in mind will take
over the unpaid balance of the
loan.
A-You may both be released,
as long as the legal conditions for
release are met. The new buyer
must put it in writing that he
will buy your property and as
sumo the balance of your loan. He
must also satisfy VA that he is a
good credit risk.

The bill also authorizes $50 mil
lion for public facility loans and
an additional $35 million for pub
lie facility grants in the hardest
hit areas.
Subsistence Payments Set
A total Of $40 million was speci-
fled for subsistence payments to
workers being retrained; $4.5 mil
lion was earmarked for technical
aid and SIS million for vocational
training grants.
The majority report which ac-
companied the House bill out of
committee last year traced five
major causes Of depressed areas;
chronological change, industrial mi
grafton, shifts in consumer de-
mand, prolonged seasonal unem-
ployment and depletion of re-
sources. The report concluded
that "outside assistance must
come from the federal govern
ment."
Although House Democrats tap
cred down their program of 1851
million in hopes Of avoiding a
veto, Eisenhower just the day be-
fore the vote singled out the bill
in his special message to Con-
gress. He called it q scheme to
"perpetuate insecurity by making
distressed areas dependent upon
the uncertainties of continued fed
eral subsidies"
The Senate-House compromise
which finally goes to the White
House will test whether Eisenhow-
er will repeat his 1868 veto and
whether the Democrats can muster
two-thirds vote to override.

Unions Win

Stockton, Calf. - Seven years
of company stalling ended when
five Sunkist affiliates in the lem
on packing industry signed first
contracts containing the highest
wages and best working conditions

Announcement of the signing
was made by Norman Smith, d.
rector of the AFL-CIO Agricul-
tural Workers Organizing Com
mittee which is conducting an Or
ganizing campaign among field
and shed workers.
These agreements" he said,
constitute major break-through
toward organizing the $4,000
workers employed in the citrus
industry. Now that a beach-head

established in the Sunkist empire,

DEPRESSED area AID
APPROVED BY HOUSE

Long-denied federal aid to de-
pressed areas moved closer to real
ity as the House passed $251
million program by a vote Of 2O1-
184. The Senate last year approved
a $500 million measure.
The Democratic area redevelop-
ment program still must hurdle a
veto threatened by Pres. Eisenhow-
er, whose own $53 million alterna-
tive was knocked down by a 1872
II vote. Eisenhower vetoed a
Democratic aid measure in 1858.
The House bill was forced to the
floor through an unusual device
bypassing the conservative-mind-
ed Rules Committee which had
held the measure bottled up for q
year.
The Democratic leadership used
calendar Wednesday" to free the
bill, relying on House rules which
allow an alphabetical rollcall of
committees so chairmen may bring
up committee-approved bills for
immediate action. A filibustering
coalition Of Republicans and south
ern Democrats tried to stall or
sidetrack the bill in a long after
noon Of quorum calls and roll calls.
The final vote saw 178 Demo-
Gratis Joined by % Republicans to
make up the 201 votes in favor.
Against the bill were lis Republi-

arrests followed demonstrations
against the government by Afri-

After refusing to see the group
which called May 10, Mr.. Eras-

"unwise" to withdraw emergency
regulations before June 26, a date
which he said had been fixed by
underground organizations" for
renewing disturbances.
ut is clear that at present there
are Africans and whites engaged
in underground organization work.
Mr.. Erasmus said.
Meanwhile, the government ex-
empted all its officials and police
from legal action arising from en-
forcement of emergency regula-
tons. They were exempted from
civil or criminal actions" stem
ming from enforcement of the
regulations.
Hunger Strike On
Mr.. Erasmus disclosed that 16
women detained in Pretoria jail
were in the fifth day of hunger
strike. He placed the total num-
Der of women detainees at IS. Of
19 white women deafness, two

In Pretoria May Is it was re-
ported that the country's gold and

piper of old leading the Negro peo-

Illustration and hate.
The Mississippi Editors remarks
won immediate support from Mrs
Lewlyn J. Ware, of Chicago, I'LL
nois, outstanding among women
leaders of her state, and the first
Negro Woman to become a Person
mel Director of Campbell Soup
Company. Starting off by saying
she had never thought there would
come time when Illinois and Mis-
sissippi would be together on the
race question, she said that she was
in full agreement with everything
the editor of Mississippi said. She
pointed out how Negroes could buy
stock and become important stock
holders in the big business corpora
ton of the country, and how their
failure to do so was proving one
of the important setbacks in the
campaign for first-class citizenship.
She also urged that Negroes take
the example of other minority
groups and pool their small re-
sources to create the means of job
opportunity and eventual economic
independence.
The Mississippi editors remarks
also got the backing of j. A. Rog-
ers of New York, the noted Negro
historian whose articles are fea-
tured in some of the nations lead
ing Negro Newspapers, and whose
books on Negro and African his
tory are read throughout the world.

WE MUST OBEY GOD AND

HIS SON JESUS ALSO
Whenever a man learns too fast
He nevers tries to learn about
the end
He never tried to know Jesus

Who died for all our sin.
A wise fool is in the way of right
He wants always to be a great
hero z
Good common sense tells us to
love one another you see
And obey the will of God if in
Heaven we want to be.
We train too many fools
And try to tell him that his way
is already right
A fool will always learn the
latter anytime as a rule
But the wise fool thinks that he
is right day and night.
Wise men have always been born
And taught the things that are
right
A fool is always being born also
And his hopes in life is to win
all fights.
A wise child is always born to
do all right
And a fool is born to start wrong
He never wants to finish school
In his teens he will usually run
away from home
The Lord doesn't use sleepy head
And no sleepy brain at all
The world is filled up with brains
That won't answer to Christ's call.
The lord isn't pleased with all
brains today
He only ask for the old heart
of man
And in return for the old heart
to come
A new heart of the Lord that
will stand. -''f ''' sfi mr.

We need a new heart that will

Christ ask for the old heart and

And a heart of love He will

We cannot stand without a
new heart
SO why don't we believe Gods
word
Christ is the only One who died
for us all
So why don't we answer His call :?
