JOCKLVN T ANDY in outlying areas. Ms. Tandy also wants: Greater attention given to needed street repairs and snowremoval. Expanded training for the jobless and senior citizens. More money invested in providing police and Fire Department protection for neigh

borhoods where it’s direly needed. -Better housing. -Improved parks and recreation facilities. Remaining at Ms. Tandy’s heart is the interest of the young as evidenced by her being originator-coordinator of the “Back to School” Parade, something that has drawn considerable priase the past two years. “Youths have been neglected too much. They need adults who’re willing to take them by the hand and provide guidance.” Her candidacy is boosted by endorsements from UAWCAAP Council, Indianapolis Firefighters and Women’s Political Caucus as well as a nod from the Democratic Screening Committee. She has worked extensively as a grass roots volunteer for several major Democratic office contenders. Right now. she's assistant auction manager for WFYI TV, Channel 20. but is better known for her extensive work with the National Council of Negro Women, Black Expo, NAACP And Urban League. Religion, Ms. Tandy feels, just doesn't play an important enough role in the average person's life. She treasurers her membership at Martindale Avenue Church of Christ where she’s a Budget Committee member.

Mayor birthday guest at Booth Realty Co. r • When you’re mayor, lots of people want to throw parties on your birthday and William H. Hudnut III is no different. The mayor received more than a fair share of invitations for October 17, but made it his personal business to show up as honored guest for the birthday reception hosted by the Albert Booth Realty Company. “It’s in recognition of his work within the black community," one of the planners explained. There was the custorttary cake and hearty singing of "Happy Birthday" as over 200 guests crowded in and around the company’s beautiful office at 2202 N. Illinois. Notables in attendance were Ray Crowe, Parks Department director; Buddy Parker, assistant director, Department of Administration; Clarence Hodges, candidate for 11th District Congressman; Joe Elliott, 9th Councilmayc District candidate, and Vicky Benn White, 16th Council matic District candidate. Mayor Hudnut reiterated in remarks his commitment to the black community and emphasized that throughout his term in office every effort has been made by him to reman accessible to all the people. He pledged black involvement in the city’s decision making process and to integrate black culture into the city’s traditional celebration.

Bias costly p to employers J Ignoring fair employment | practices hurts employers tre | mendously in an economic « sense, according to a former ■ top administrator in the De partment of Labor. Ronald J. James says the majority of equal opportunity lawsuits result from bad policy or bad supervision, and many supervisors don't realize the cost. "If an employee in a paper mill let 50.000 sheets in a bad run go through, you’d fire him," James said. "What people don’t recognize is that equal employ ment conditions can cost you just as much." He cited a case in which a supervisor was so difficult with six women that they brought suit. He said the women won $185,000 L orn the company and cost the company a total of $400,000. James, the first black partner in the Cleveland law firm of Squire Sanders & Dempsey, spoke recently at Cleveland State University for a Human Relations Council Conference. He described Equal Employment Opportunity laws as “nearly unenforceable,’’ but said inroads are being made in clearing up the huge backlog. He attributes volunteer compliance with leading prbgress. Also pointed out by the lawyer is the fact there are about 70 million workers falling under federal guidelines, but there are only 5,000 EEO officers, making settlements extremely slow. Janies said he could not generalize about the effects of the regulations. He said in some cases, working relations between women and men and between blacks and whites have vastly improved. In other cases, the relations have hardened.

Those of you who. through the years, have followed my "By The Way" commentaries have probably experienced times when you thought that I sounded like a broken record My remarks today will echo some previous thoughts that I have expounded on each year since 1974. Some of my words have provoked some of you into writing me angry letters and describing me as a "tool for the white man because I am "ripping oft" the brother rather than dealing with the sociological ramifications of Black-on-Black crime.” That is your prerogative, but I still choose to view Black-on-Black crime from the "bottom line" — that it is having a very negative effect upon the socioeconomic status of Black communities. The sweat, tears, and lives that were lost during the social revolution of the 50's and 60's were not sacrificed so that we can kill one another or to keep the Black side of town in a depressed financial state. It is time for Black Americans to stand up and loudly denounce those criminals who are destroying our neighborhoods; because in too many towns. Black w-omen and children are afraid to walk the streets once the sun goes down. Senior citizens are victimized because the attackers take advantage of their weakened bodies and slow reactions. Orr community is deprived of convenience and economic growth because businesses hesitate to locate in inner-city because of the higher insurance rates and the risk of robbery or extortion. And when we do speak out, we must make the courts understand that we want the same penalties applied for crimes against Blacks as the court applies when a white citizen is the victim; no longer will we tolerate a lecture and a $50 fine when a Black man rapes a Black woman.
