your goose is cooked, for if you
moat plan so far ahead of 1814 to
cultivate the minority votes of tho
“down - .trodden" Negroes; you
might as well get on one of those
“Freedom Rider" buses and take
a visit down South and see how
far you could ride in peace.
You and many of your fellow-
travellers enjoy stirring tq> clast
and racial hatred by agitation and
other means in areas where peac-
ful co - exlstene has been very
well handled locally in moat of
our Southern States.
If your interest is truly honest
for the good of the colored race,
why don't you send some of your
investigators to the Dellas area
and see how the negro earns re-
spect by Ms own ambitious ef-
forts to advance Mmself educa-
tionally and financially under the
protection and respect of the
white man and the laws of our

Dear Editor:
Have been wondering just h»w
the many city tax dollars that is
to be spent on paving the city
Airport runways will ever, heue-
fit the majprity of city tax pay:
ers. Few pf us tax payers will
ever get any closer to an air-
plane than one flying over head
yet we are all taxed so that a
feW (oil men etc) can have a
paved runway. Seems to be a one
sided deal some how. ‘v ~
Why not put the money on our
many streets that have poor or
no paving at. all. Let the few
plane owners take care of. their
own paving since the airport is
not a passenger or freight port.
Does any one else have an opin-
ion on this?
