10 Spur Citizens To Act

support behind the vigorous pro-
test of its Los Angeles branch
over the brutal police killing of
Ronald Stokes, Muslin leader.

brutality against any segment of
the population demands vigorous
action by all elements in the
city"

wire TO Edward Warren. presi.
dent of the NAACP's Los Angeles
branch.
There is an incredible repor!
circulating here" Mr.. wilkins
continued. that some sections of
the Los Angeles Negro commun-
ity are remaining silent because
Stokes was leader in the Mu-
slim movement"
He urged Mr.. Warren and the
Los Angeles NAACP unit Ito
press in all possible ways to bring
the guilty police to account and
to rally other groups to do like
wise.
Never in its history has the
NAACP withheld condemnation
OF an action against police bru
tality because of race or reli
gion and it will not do so now,
Secretary Wilkins concluded.
Mr.. Stokes was killed, and Is
others wounded, when police mis-
takenly descended on a Muslin
Mosque following an alteration

In conclusion, l could relate
many activities of Mr.. Warren
for the benefit of his constitu-
ents. If you will pardon the per-
sonal reference, / shall mention
one more in which he interceded
for the benefit of the writer. It
was during World War II when
he was Comptroller General of
the U.S.A. The U. S. Shipping
Board had requisitioned and
taken a vessel belonging to the
writer. A question arose as to
the price the Government would
pay. The vessel was offered by
the owner at cost, less accunlu-
lated depreciation. After sew
eral months delay it was alleg-
ed by the Shipping Board that
the Comptroller General was
holding up payment, as he had
Justly done in cases where exor-
birant prices We're being claim
ed. An interview with Mr.. War
rem disclosed the fact that he
had not delayed payment of my
vessel, but would investigate and
advise me. Several days later
the price quoted by the owner
was paid in full. This incident
goes to prove that while Mr..
Warren was responsible for the
many millions being paid by the
Government, he was not too
busy to recognize a just claim of
a very small amount by an in
significant constituent. Genera
lions yet unborn will live and de-
rive the benefit of the many i'm
provements he has promoted for
the Outer Banks, the State Of
North Carolina, and the whole

miss Alice" held services first
on the lawn of the Steve Stron
home, or in rainy weather in
the homes of the members. The
church edifice was built in
1910. Later a Sunday School
building was added and a par
sonage built. The present mem
bership of the church is 40.
Though the church group, is
small, it is very active. There
are four weekly services: on
Sunday, Sunday School and
a morning and night service; on
Wednesday, prayer meeting, and
on Friday night, the meeting of
the young people, "Christ's Am
bassadors". Their president is
Miss Betsy C. Styron.
The mans Missionary
Council meets the first Tuesday
of each month, led by its presi-
dent, Mrs. Elwood McCleary.
Mrs. Lavice Tolson is it's Sec
rotary and treasurer. The Coun-
Gil sponsors two foreign mis-
sionaries. There have been sew
eral pastors, some young and
some old, but all of whom have
done good work in the further
ance of the Lords work at Ocra-
coke. The present pastor is the
Rev. Elwood McCleary, who
came to Ocracoke in November

HIGH TRIBUTE TO [. CIV.
BY AN OcRAcOKE CITIZEN

OH quuCS IN Cne nOlQ OF the
"Annie Wahab". The train, a
combination of freight and pas
senger cars, pulled by a wood
burning engine, left Belhaven at
z am. ct morning and arrived
in Norfolk at 4:30 pm. that af.,
ternoon. We boarded the Old
Dominion Line steamship ella
milton" for New York. We all
had second class tickets; we
could not afford better. An ac-
cident prevented the use Of
these tickets.
An Italian was assigned to the
same bunk as one of the men
in our party, and when he threw
the Ocracoker's bag off the
bunk and started cursing, a
fight ensued and the Italian was
knocked out cold. The purser ar
rived and ordered all Ocracokers
to move down into steerage
quarters. Leaving Norfolk, just
outside of Cape Henry we ran
into a northeast gale which made
us four hours late in arriving
in New York, too late to get
the Joy Line steamer to Prov
idence. We spent the night at
Mills Hotel, a flop house for
the unfortunate. Price for lodg-
ing was 15c each. We were from
Monday morning until Saturday
afternoon getting from Ocra-
coke, N. C. to Tiverton, r. l. l
mention this as only one of the
many trips l have made to and
from Ocracoke during the past
fifty years on which much time
has been wasted on account of
poor transportation facilities.
Today with the completion of
the LINDSAY WA R R E N
BRIDGE, connecting m o d e r n
highways on the mainland with
those on the Outer Banks of
North Carolina, we travel for
pleasure and business, contri-
buting not only to the economic
benefit of the Outer Banks but
to many other places nearby or
at a distance, and we get to our
destination without wasting pre-
cious time. The new Alligator
River Bridge is justly named for
Mr.. Warren; and we should also
recognize the many, many inn
provements which Mr.. Warren
has sponsored during his career
as a Member of Congress and
Comptroller General of the
United States and as a Senator
in the North Carolina General
Assembly. 1t was as a U. S.
Representative that he took the
initiative and caused "Silver
Lake" harbor at Ocracoke to be
deepened, making it one of the
best harbors on the Atlantic
Coast. The older retired menu

Manteo had been turned into

The main streets of the town

ightful Sunday afternoon of
Go-Kart racing. Approximately
400 ,townfolk had turned out
to witness the ummitigated
mechanical madness, and deriv-
ed an intending source of plea

sight and sound of approximate
ly 10 motor-driven racers as
they smoked and sputtered
their way around the court

80 miles IAN hour.
This delightful civic insanity
was apparently conducted with
the approval of the town faith
ers, who, if they kept their
wits about them, were prob
ably at home with their heads
stuck under a pillow.
At least one embarrassed
policeman was on hand to
protect children and the gener-

of the short-story. Katherine
Porter's short stories, such as
the prize winning Pale Horse,
Pale Rider, have the acid-tinged
intensity of genius. Her latest
work appears to be of a similar,
if diluted, caliber. Ship of Fools
has received % out of So votes
from the nations leading
newspaper critics as the most
outstanding spring book.
AS this column is written,
the Talent Show which is slated
for production on Tuesday night
in the Manteo Elementary
School has not come off. There
is nothing more amusing than
a flock of self-conscious first
and second graders doing any
thing together, and the fact
that townfolk are to be treated
to a rhythm band concert and
singing and dancing is nothing
more than a bonus of the first
dimension.
For my money, a rhythm
band just beats the pants off of
any group John Phillips Sousa
ever conducted. This prejudice
undoubtedly stems from the
fact that the Child was once
the leading tamburine RATHER
in a swinging group which
travelled (from the primary
school to the kindergarten audi
torium and back) under the tag
of "Mrs. McGregor's Merry
Msuic Men" We all wore sailor
blouses, blue shorts and forced
smiles as we changed, ratified
and footed our way through the
bosom lifting strains of "Old
Mcdonald Had A Farm" "She'll
Be Coming Round the Noun
tain," and america the Beauti-
full"
The maintenance of a rhythm
band in our community strikes
me as an achievement of pri-
mary magnitude. A rhythm
band is not beneficial as music
al training, but serves to keep
first and second graders out of
beer halls and poolrooms. What
this country needs is more
rhythm bands.
