Investigation. Both agencies
confirmed an investigation
was begun, but had no
other comment.
"I'm going to turn
over what little information
we got to the agents when
they arrive." Haskins said.

an interracial couple- but

residents were disturbed by
a series of events that
began last April 17 with a
cross burning at the home
of Helen McGovern, a
white woman who allowed
Black children to play in
her yard and sometimes fed
them m her home.
Recent racial violence
includes a buckshot blast
into the home where Pam
O'Steen, a white woman,
lives with a Black man.
"Ronald Reagan and Black
America.'
Because of the lack of
support that Blacks gave
Ronald Reagan in the
election, Tony Brown in his
opening comments asks:
"Will a turned-off Reagan
Administration deal Blacks
out with punitive measures
because it has the political
freedom to do so or will
Reagan use his massive
landslide victory to exploit
the awesome coming-apart
of the Democratic coalition
to premanently expand the
base of the GOP by
building bridges to
Blacks?"
Meese. who holds
Cabinet rank, gave a broad
ranging and authoritative
preview of the new
administration's opening
moves and longer-range
objectives on matters
dealing with the nation’s
Blacks.
"I guess what does
disturb me." Meese
candidly admitted, "is that
I think there are those
jieople who are tormenting
Black hysteria in others to
preserve their own positions
in their communities and
their positions of so-called
leadership."
Included in the
program also are Dr.
Diomas Sowell, economist
and senior fellow at
Stanford University's
Hoover Institution, and
Rev. Hosea Williams, a
once powerful civil rights
leader and follower of
Martin Luther King, whose

it the warning:

revitalized because of his
endorsement of Ronald
Reagan.
Dr. Sowell is the most
prominent Black policy
maker affiliated with the
Reagan administration and
has drawn criticism from
some professional Black
civil rights leaders because
of his disagreement with
such favored solutions as
busing and the minimum
wage. He answers a charge
by an NAACP official that
he will play the traditional
role of the "house nigger’’
in the Reagan
Administration by accusing
the NAACP of being more
committed to White liberals
than to the Black
community.
Rev Williams, accused
by many of completely
"destroying everything Dr.
King stood for" by his
support of Ronald Reagan,
explains that he. although a
lX*mocrat, could not let his
party exploit him and “sit
by and see Jimmy Carter
elected again. It would
have been a betrayal of my
country and my people.”
About "Jimmy Carter’s
Black clique,” Rev.
Williams says: ”They went
and told Carter what they
wanted him to hear. They
didn't tell him what Black
America wanted him to
hear "
