$ Fresh ~ Money From Poor~ (Continued from Page 1) ica that they face courageously the fact that until all Negroes are free, none can be; that helping the less _fortunate is as important as helping one~s self. In short their success is dependent upon the success of their brothers, =a aoe RA ae Since their future security is absolutely dependent upon the economic condition of those who support them, they are stupid indeed if they refuse to do all they can to help others rise out of their misery and aid their advancement. All civilization, both spiritual and material, has advanced in direct ratio to the willingness of men to accept the proposition that the strong must help the ~weak; that they are their brother~s keeper. While this newspaper undestands that the crime problem is not the sole responsibility of. Negroes, it does believe that Negroes should take the leadership in finding the solution,and applying the remedy, It is difficult to understand how any self-respecting Negro, and there are thousands of them, can sit back with smug com placency and refuse to give of their tinfe and their substance to remove the ~Noose of Crime~ from around their own necks. They cannot escape by. closing their eyes and saying, ~Isn~t it a shame?~ when they read in the newspapers that a member of their race has fired a bullet into a man~s belly. | The Tribune does not believe and will never agree with the idea that Negroes are inherently criminal. They are no more criminally inclined than any other kind of God~s children. There is nothing wrong with them that cannot be cured. The proof of. this assertion is evidenced by the great host of Negroes who are daily living decent and respectable lives as good citizens. The thing that disturbs this newspaper is the refusal of many so-called ~big shot~ Negroes to extend a helping hand to those caught in the web of man~s inhumanity to man and unable to find their way out. |: And those who enjoy positions of honor and trust, who have attained a little more of this world~s goods than the unfortunate victims of greed and who will not accept their responsibility of helping their fellowmen are unworthy of their good fortune and~ deserve the scorn of all men.

Virginians in attendance, lamDr. Davis, director of the University of North Carolina Press at Chapel Hill, N. C., wrote his ~answer in an open letter to Governor Stanley. He said: ~TI believe that I can best show my loyalty to the great traditions of Virginia by declining your invitation.~. He went on to. say that if he were a Negro, ~you would delegate Mr. Verbon Kemp of the Chamber of Commerce to inform me that the invitation was a mistake. It is therefore not~a true invitation but an offer contingent upon my being able to prove Caucasian ancestry.~ Lashing out at Governor Stanley, Mr. Davis wrote: ~When sober minds all over the South have looked to the Old Dominion for leadership, you have offered only the barren slogan of massive resistance, the tyrannical suppression of all local freedom, and~ a mass of witless obstructive legislation that is rightly doomed to the judicial scrapheap. ~And now. you find yourself or a great and solemn occasion in the history of the Commonwealth, in the ridiculous position of asserting in effect that being distinguished is an accomplishment possible only for people of Caucasian ancestry. You have succeeded in making the leadership of the Commonwealth both a stench~ and a laughing stock in the nation.~ _Ten of the.15 schools and colleges on The University of Michigan campus have enrollments of 1,000 or fewer students. or Newspaper Editor Denounces Virginia Dinner, Govern Imperial Wius Economy Test ~ DETROIT ~ A 1957: Imperial automobile has just been anounced in Sun Valley, Idaho, as the overall Sweepstakes winner of the 1957 Mobilgas Economy Run.
