director, shows that the most
substantial gains have been
made at the level of city
government, where 954 or 44.8
per cent of the Black elected
officials hold office.
“The irony of the
phenomenonal progress in the
increase of Black elected
officials is that Blacks
constitute such a small
percentage of total
officeholders,” said Alexander.
“We’re not advocating a quota,
but common sense indicates
that there is serious under
representation in a region
where Blacks constitute 20.4
per cent of the population and
yet hold only 2.6 per cent of
the public offices.”
The 2,129 offices held by
Blacks are distributed
throughout the South as
follows: Alabama, 230;
Arkansas, 219; Florida, 84;
Georgia, 259; Louisiana, 280;
Mississippi, 242; North
Carolina, 240; South Carolina,
194; Tennessee, 118; Texas,
171; and Virginia, 92. Eight of
the Black elected officials hold
double offices; therefore the
total number of Black elected
officials in 1977 is 2,121.
“The political advances
made by southern Blacks were
not automatic,” Mr. Alexander
insists. “While the VEP is not a
partisan organization, it’s
programs of voter registration,
citizenship education,
leadership training, research,
and participation in tire
development of voting rights
litigation have encouraged
literally thousands of local
community groups to organize
politically.
“The increase of Black
elected officials has been
consistent and will continue,
barring a reversal of the human
rights movement, in the
forseeable future,” said
Alexander, pointing out that
the number has increased as
follows: 1965-72; 1966-159;
1967-not available; 1968-248;
1969-388; 1970 -565;
1971-711; 1972-873;
1973-1.144; 1974-1,305;
1975-1,588; and 1976-1,944.
The breakdown of Black
elected officials in the outh i
1977 includes: U. S.
Representatives, 3; state
senators, 11; state house
members, 95; county
commissioners, 267; election
commissioners, 26; other
county officials, 32; mayors,
76; vice mayors, 28; city
council members, 824; other
city officials, 26; judges, 32;
magistrates, 25; constables,
103; marshalls, sheriffs or
police chiefs, 18; justices of the
peace, 45; other law
enforcement officials, 4;
superintendents of education,
6; county city and district
school board members, 508.
“We must not become
complacent with our advances
in the political arena,”
Alexander warns, “but rather
we must view our gains as a
step toward making the
democratic process more
representative of all people. We
must continue our struggle for
human rights and concentrate
our efforts in areas of our
society where injustice prevails.

"Each has his own special
gift from God"
-I Corinthians 7:7
* * *
1 ’ You’re “Something
Special” All of us should know
this; for “each has (a) special
gift”. We each and all have the
possibility for excellence in
some special way which differs
from the gifts or talents of any
other.
2 - Develop Your
“Personality - The word
“personality” has a classical or
historical meaning which we
should know. In theology, we
speak of “the personhood of
Christ”. It means one’s unique
way of expressing God’s life in
our own. Let others, then, see
a fresh view of God in you.
3 - Don’t Let Any Human
Talents Be Diminished. This is
a tali order. It means “good
schools”. It means “expressing
our best”. It means

Close to the time of Christ
these words about our gifts or
service were written,
supposedly by St. James:
“From strength to strength we
go forward on Zion's highway,
To appear before God in the
city of infinite day.
Thanksgiving and glory and
worship, and blessing, and love,
One heart and one song have
thy Saints upon earth and
above.”

At Procter & Gamble our expanding business
continually generates a need for managers who
can handle increasing levels of responsibility.
From the day they join us, P&G managers are
encouraged to use their initiative and leader
ship ability to “take charge” of challenging
assignments.
Take Jim Hurley, for example. He began his
P&G career in 1970 as a Sales Representative
in the Toilet Goods Division. Just a year later,
he earned a promotion to District Field Repre
sentative. Then in 1972 he was promoted to
Unit Manager, where he directed the sales ef
forts of five other people and was responsible
for over $10,000,000 worth of business orders.
All within three years time!
Today Mr. Hurley has an even more important
assignment. He designs and manages training
programs for new sales representatives and in
structs unit managers taking part in executive
development programs.
Jim Hurley's job is one of thousands of respon
sible management positions at Procter &
Gamble, in which individuals progress on the
basis of merit alone.
