Judging from Rev. Charles B. Montgomery's stated objectives, his position as Butler Tarkington Multi Service Center director isn’t too far from what he’d like to do. “To work in a social service setting; whereby, I could utilize my skills of working with people has always been my goal. The opportunity to serve as director of Butler Tarkington has given me this benefit, along with the contingency to enhance my talents in many areas of social work. It is my desire to utilize my experiences and acquired knowledge to strive for a growth position in a social work environment, where advancement depends upon performance, industriousness. good communication skills and innovation." The center at 3951 North Illinois serves one of Indianapolis' more stable integrated communities. Montgomery has held the position which entails budgeting: drafting proposals and serving as a liason between the community and churches, schools, business and government. since 1976. He came to the post with some pretty noticeable experience. He was formerly with the Family Service Association after working in IU PUI’s Office of Veterans Affairs Rev. Montgomery also put in time as a

They conduct the interviews, write the stories, edit stories and draw cartoons. In addition they are encouraged to send original material of their own to the paper for publica tion. The demand for copies of the paper has been far greater than revenue available for printing.

Since 1960 Black people have had rallying cries such as: “We Shall Overcome”: “Power to the People”: and “Nation Time”: however, for the Black Brothers and Sisters in the 1980 s there can be but one rallying motto and that is:“Survival Time!’ The national administration is forcefully telling us that the government is not goi ng to take care of us. But rather than curse this unforeseen negative action, we should heed the encouragement of a Black man who suggests: "Thke the first step, stand on your feet, there is always help for the problems you meet.” Although they are suffering. I say that there is help for the Black, the poor, and the elderly: and I am not talking about any form of hand-outs. God has given to each of us a mind for thinking and a body for working and He helps those who help themselves. Thus. I am reminding you that Black survival will come through political participation and economic growth. My friends. Black America, with its projected annual gross income in excess of $100 billion dollars, is not a poverty state—we just have misguided priorities. For example, as we labor through the years we are content to think that Social Security will support us when we reach the age of 65. But why shouldn’t we think and plan to live a little better during our golden years? We can if we heed these words of Mr Allen Beasley: “No man should stay poor, begin to save: get up! Don’t be a slave. Let’s pledge to gain economic freedom by saving rather than spending. The task won’t be difficult—to save $10.00 each pay day we only need to sacrifice some of our weekly alcohol and tobacco purchases. The Black philosopher tells us: “Don’t be a slave to strong drink, a slave to dope: even a slave to creditors: it’s no joke. Remember it’s not the one with the highest I.Q.. but rather what each chooses to do.”
