Hud nut says blacks taken for granted

Mayor William H. Hudnut said Tuesday, Indianapolis Blacks aTe being taken for granted by the Marion County Democrat Organization, and he urged Blacks to broaden their poliatical base. "Republicans historically have supported policies designed to solve the problems of minorities on a permanent basis," the Mayor said. "The other party has thrown crumbs in the direction of minorities which onlv ease the pain of poverty for a short while, but don’t -ulve tahe long term problems. “President t'arter is in the White House today because more than 90 percent of the Blacks w ho voted in 197l> voted for him. What have they lecieved in return? Higher joblessness, rampant inflation and energy shortages," Hudnut pointed out. Hudmg said the key to minority advancement in the years aneao is economic pi os penty for th. entire countary. "Minorities ion’t need more welfare, they need jobs training and job opportunities." he said. ’Lower taxes and smaller government w ill leave money in the pockets of the taxpayers to spend n productive ways, creating more jobs and reduc ing the U-\el of inflation." Hudnut elded. The Mayor also said Blacks need 'to exeert the political power T hey- possess. "Only nine million of sixteen million voting .tg« Blacks in the

country are even registered to vote,” the Mayor said. “In Marion County this year, the largest percentage of voters purged from the voters lists lived in the inner city.” The Mayor also said Traditional minority voting patterns have resulted in the vote being taken for granted. "The Democrats have come to expect minority voters to overwhelmingly support every election,” the Mayor said. "Because they are so sure of that vote, minority concerns and needs have been paid a lot of lip service and nothing more. It is time for a change in that pattern." The Mayor also listed his own accomplishments in the Black community. He pointed out that he had appointed the first Black Deputy Mayor and Department Director in the City's history; had appointed more Blacks to City boards and commissions than any .other Mayor: mandated that all police and fire department recruit classes contain atleast 25 percent minority students; supported making the birthday of Dr. Martin Luther King a City holiday; issued an Exe cutive Order that 18 percent of all City contract business go to minority concerns; and set up the Mayor's Black History Committee resulting in Indianapolis begemming the first city in the nation to celebrate Black History Month on a City-wide basis.
