Capt. Anton Predivoj of the African Mariner was detained Friday after police found two Black men “bound in chains in a tiny, suffering from hunger and fatigue,” federal police spokesman Arthur Carbone said. The captain, whose ship had sailed from Lagos, Nigeria, was charged with mistreating the two The time is now for Mayor Willie Mays Punch 82 Keep Augusta Moving Elect Willie Mays Mayor October 10th-Punch 82 For A Ride To The Polls Call 736-1476 or 722-6401. 722-3142 . 722-4372, or 722-4463 Paid for by the committee to Elect Willie H.

Police boarded the ship Friday after longshoremen reported seeing the two men “bound hand and foot by chains like a scene from the colonial slave trade,” he said. Four other Black stowaways, all with Ghanian passports, had been found Aug. 17 on board the ship while it was making a call in the Brazilian port of Santos, Carbone said. The four were released and flown back to Ghana. Horst Eller, a spokesman for Nigeria-America Lines, which owns the ship, said “The six stowaways were found on board soon after the ship left Lagos, Nigeria. They were permitted complete freedom on board. However, soon before landing in Santos they attempted to escape and were locked up by the cap tain.” He said the company intended to keep the t ;wo stowaways found in Rio on board for a return trip to Africa. However, police apparently were not aware the four may have been mistreated or that tow others were still on board until the ship reached Rio. Carbone said the two Black stowaways found in Rio were “dirty, hungry and suffered from sores.” Detroit NAACP site? CHARLOTTE, N.C. - The NAACP National Board of Directors at its quarterly meeting held here at the Raddisson Hotel last week acted on several major issues with the reaching of an agreement with the Food Lion Corp, as a highlight of the three-day session. The board also approved the continued search for permanent headquarters for the association. The search had been confined to the New York City area but the board voted to have the search extended to areas beyond New York. It was suggested that the organization find a site that is centrally located so that it would be accessible to members from all parts of the country. One member recommended that the Midwest would be preferable and it was suggested that Detroit should be considered as a possibility for the site. Detroit had previously been considered but on recom mendation of staff the selection was dropped in preference to the national headquarters remaining in the New York area. Benjamin Hooks, executive director of the association, at a meeting held at Mt. Moriah Baptist Church on Saturday, announced the agreement with Food Lion that promised better job and economic opportunities for Blacks. Recent attempts to obtain property have been stymied because of the increasingly high cost or real estate and necessary maintenance. Because of this the board voted that the search be extended to other areas in the country. Several operations of the NAACP have already been located in the Detroit area.

An emotional Patti tells host Susan L. Taylor about the joy and sorrow in her life (She’s had two sisters die from can cer):“Because I’m an entertainer, people think,‘Oh nobody dies in her family.’ And they think you go through life with everything beautiful happening around you; that your family lives forever and that you live forever. But, it’s not that way, everybody dies.” The MCA .recording artist also talks Mr. Edward M. Mclntyre P.O.

Thurgood Marshall from page 1 questioned bow the court could“so easily concede the existence of a constitutional violation for which there is no remedy”. To do so is to convert a Bill of Rights into an unenforced honor code... The Constitution requires more. It requires a remedy.” He said the remedies offered in those cases were“almost meaningless.” Decisions that (do not offer a remedy) will erode the faith in the law of those who rely on the law’s protection,” he said. “Where no remedy is offered or where the only ones offered can accomplish little, those who need the protec tion will have reason to turn away form the legal system .” SEPTEMBER NATIONAL SICKLE CELL MONTH Help Dreams Come True. . .
