Appeal to black voters eyed by Nixon aides

WASHINGTON, D.C. — The plight of Negro people or President Nixon’s concern is a matter of keen speculations by stalwarts of his camp with their eyes on the 1972 general election. Concerning convincing the public of Mr. Nixon’s accomplishments aiding Negro people some of his aides think these have not been stressed fully. U.S. Sen. Robet Dole, (Rep. Kans.) chairman of the GOP national committee is preparing a list of accomplishments of the Nixon administration which have aided Negro people. Further, Robert Brown, only Negro Presidential assistant also has compiled data detailing 19 areas where the administration’s accomplishments have been directly beneficial to Negro people. Elsewhere Congress man George Collins (Dem.-IU.) has confirmed certlan fears of Nixon supporters. Congressman Collins whose ChlcEigo district is agout forty-five per cent Negro stated that if major efforts have been expended to aid Negro people, none of these have reached his constitutents. Congressman la one of the several Negro Congressmen who have been trying to confer with Mr. Nixon on problems of black communities. Brown, assistant to the President observed, ".. .There is no reuon for us to forfeit all the black votes to the Democrats In 1972. . .People are badly mistaken If they feel that all of a sudden, all the people you’ve helped and who are Involved In these programs (Negro people In federal agencies) are tolng to turn their back on the people responsible for them, . ." Congressman Collins while conceding that effective programs could win some Negro votes of the GOP, scoffed the idea of any major inroads being made by Nixon in 1972. Further, he observed, ". .. It is almost paranoiac to think Nixon will get many Negro votes. . . .’’

United Church of Christ maps ghetto “renewal ” plan

Your professional hairdresser knows the answer... How do you keep a 'Fro free from problems? An “afro” or "natural” looks best when every strand of hair stands independently full and attractively healthy. But, kinky or frizzy hair mats and tangles easily and can break off in everyday combing. Because professional hairdressers realize this most of them use Clairol condition*—The Beauty Prescription for Troubled Hair ... as well as Clairol Hair-So-New\ the no rinse creme rinse

for general softening.

They know condition* leaves dry hair shiny and plump. What’s more, it silkens and helps mend split ends. Hair is left stronger to withstand even chemical straighteners and the picking method of combing an "afro." A condition* treatment only takes a few minutes. And you can feel the difference in your hair right away. For easy combing most professional hairdressers soften the hair first with a product like Hair-So-New. It temporarily relaxes hair so tangles and snarls quickly go away and scalp feels soothed.

Combing is easy... and fewer ends are broken.

When you wear your hair in a "natural," you’ll want it to look beautiful. The more beautiful it is, the better it expresses your

NEW YORK, N. Y., —Leading Black ministers of the United Church of Christ presented here last week a plan for “empowerment” of Black congregations for improvement of conditions in the ghetto. The plan presented to the Executive Council of the twomillion - member denomination calls for allocation of $500,000 for a two year period and establishment of a special task force to oversee the program. The Executive Council, which is the policy-making body of the church between biennial meetings of its General Synod, met here last week. The 21 council members here from all parts of the country heard appeals for help from American Indiana and Mexican-Amerlcan members. In presenting the plan for Black churches, the Rev. Wendell H. Phillips, pastor of Heritage United Church of Christ, Baltimore, Maryland expressed the conviction that "Black churches are the only units of Christendom that continue to possess tangible influence and power In the Black community." He challenged the United Church to demonstrate the sincerity of Its experessed concern for racial Justice by sharing its power with Black clergy and laity "to harness and release the real power that already exists In the Black congregations." The "minimum" program proposed for strengthening of Black churches Included: new leadership training effortafor clergy and laity, "aconeclous

strategy" for deployment of Black congregations, guidance in better use of resources of government and private agencies for community needs, Christian education materials stressing the Black religious experience and support for Interdenominational cooperation among Black churches in local communities. The Executive Council also heal'd the report of the Ministers for Racial and Social Justice with proposals for funding of racial projects and for strengthening Black representation In the national agencies of the chureh. The proposals were presented by the Rev. Dr. Edwin R. Edmonds, pastor of Dixwell avenue United Church of Christ, New Haven, Conn., chairmen of the Ministers for Racial and Social Justice. Other members of the group proposing the empowerment of Blsck churches were Rev. Cameron W. Byrd, City Missionary Society, Boston, Mass.; Rev. W. Sterling'Cary, executive of the New York Metropolltan Association; George Guest, Baltimore, Md., a United Church layman and a police officer; Rev. Clyde H. Miller, prealdent of the City Missionary Society, Boston; Rtv. F. Allison Phillips, pastor of North Congregational United Church of Christ, Bronx, New York; Rev. Dr. C. Shelby Rooks, Princeton N. J., executive director of the Fund for Theological Education, and Rev. Rctbert Sherard, pastor of Corona Congregational United Church of Christ, Queens.

No big shift seen in Urban League policy

NEW YORK - The philosophical thrust of the National Urban League - toward an economically strong black community integrated into the general society - will no! be radically changed by the death of Whitney Young. This was Ihe contention of a number of black leaders, scholars and activists who both agr'Md and disagreed with the Urgan League’s philosophy. Those in the dlvirse group,

have little or no effect as a

group.

Harold R. Sims, the league’s 35-year-old deputy executive director, was named acting executive director pending a selection of a permanent head by the league’s board. Mr. Sims came to the league 18 months ago. Make a million, hair fast way

reached in several cities, Wir i last as certain that in order to maintain the league’s special posollon on the national scene Mr. Young’s successor would have to be "militant enough for blacks and sals snough for whlss." In addition they revived a frequent discussion among blacks thes* days on whether many black leaders are often too charismatic to encourage the growth of secondllne leaders. Roy Wilkins, executive dl rector of the NAACP, who stood firmly with Mr. Young in advocating racial integration, said: "Basically the leage must o .mtlnue to advocate Integration. In the racial situatior In which we black people find ourselves In America, there is only one path to be followed. It has been found that integration is the way in whch tegratlon is the way in which a 10 per. cent minority gets along with a 90 per cent majority." Mr. Wilkins, who considered Mr. Young as a "General who understood what goals and tactics were," added that his philosophy did "not preclude race pride, Individuality, the teaching of racial history, the Infusion of a sense of dignity and equality in the race as a whole and youth in particular. "In organizations like ours," he said, "where there are politics, politics, politics and indication of the top man retiring would mean that If the Interim your workers sould spend so much time politicking for successors or particular types of policies that your organization would

CHICAGO - The fastest way to make a million in black bu-

siness is hair.

C 11 i n g examples parting with Madam C.J. Walk the newest blsck millionaire, Chicago’! Georg* R. Johnson, a leading monthly blaok magazine finds that no other black buslnesa, including undertaking a n d Insurance, matches hair products for accumulat-

ing a fast fortune.

The article in the Alrll issue of Sepia magazine reports that Johnson In ilttla more than 15 years ran up an Investment of only $500 Into corporate hoi lings with an estimated stock book value of $50,000,000. The first .r tek corporation listed on the American Stock Exchange, his firm, Johnson Products, began in 1954 with capital consisting of a $250 bank loan and another $250 borrowed from a friend. Since then Johnson has become one of the wealthiest black businessmen in the U.S., Sepia states. With 2500 shareholders, mostly whites, Johnson Products last year had profits of $4-1/2 million before taxes. However, despite his success, Sepia magazine quotes Johnson as being skeptical about the concept of black capitalism. "That's a myth. It doesn’t exist although it needs to be create^," Johnson de-

clares.

Sepia reports that Johnson draws $100,000 a year In salary from his now publiclyheld corporation whch manufactures products fr>m straighteners to cosmetics in a big Chicago Southside plant. He will owns 83% of the company’s stock. Johnson’s goal is to penetrate the white market and hit $50,000,000 insalisby 1975, according to Sepia.
