Autobioeraohv of » fnln Page 2 Walking WITH jfejM DIGNITY Al IRBY | (A CHINA COUP THAT ASTOUNDED THE WORLD, AND BROUGHT CHOW EN-LAI AND MAO TSE TUNG ON GLOBAL CENTER.) President Nixon is going to Red China in 1972. Mr. Nixon will be an extra special guest of the People’s Republic of China. He will stand at the Gate of Heavenly Peace in Peking with suave Chou En-lai and the old crafty Mao Tse-tung. They will talk about war and peace, commerce and communication, coexistence for friendship between East and West. Mr. Nixon, stymied in Vietnam and at the Paris peace table, startled the entire world by decoying his Jewish brain-truster to meet with the leaders of the most populous nation on earth; thus setting up the greatest diplomatic coup d’etat in modern time. Most China scholars believe that all American troops will be out of Vietnam at the time of the famous visit. The President may have many big things brewing on the foreign affairs agenda. He is not doing so well on the domestic front; inflation is still rampant and industrial disorder is plagueing the economy. He may be jockeying for a summit meeting of the Super-Powers with the U.S. acting as mediator in a triangular relationship between China and Russia. The President is playing for big stakes. Washington and Moscow are on the road to meaningful accord in the limitation of nuclear weapons and with such a victory plus a friendly confrontation with Peking, Mr. Nixon would be riding high for the honor of “Statesman of the decade.” Those who play Mr. Nixon short may be riding for a great disappointment, for the President has one of the shrewdest political minds in the world today. He would have made a super global orientated Prime Minister; domestic ramifications are too provincial for him. The China coup was very secretive; it even baffled the most acute China scholars, who were meeting in New York City only hours before the President made his spectacular Peking announcement and did not have an inkling of what was up. Dr. Albert Feuerwerker, professor of Chinese History at the University of Michigan had this to say on the baffling announcement: “It’s amazing how conservative everyone was. It is one more example of how we who specialize on China couldn’t predict something. There was a general feeling that the people-to-people relations were not just a ruse, and that they would continue over sometime, but no one thought anything like this would happen. It certainly appears as if the old master Chou En-lai surely had a hand in this superb diplomatic master-piece.” Dr. Henry A. Kissinger, the President’s assistant for National-security Affairs, is the Jewish genius that sketched the outstanding blue-print between the United States and China. They included the agenda for the talks on Vietnam, the future of Indochina, diplomatic recognition, China’s seat in the United Nations, the status of Taiwan, and perhaps the reaction of the Soviet Union to the Sino-American detente. Dr. Kissinger spent 20 hours with Premier Chou; it is assumed that he found ground for the two Chinas within the range of reasonableness. Dr. Alexander Eckstein of the University of Michigan’s Far Eastern Studies made this observation, “The Nixon’s visit will be a ceremonial culmination of very serious and fruitful talks that will be going on between now and next May.” The learned Michigan scholar continued with, “that the U.S. may be thinking on global security pulling China back into the world community and reconizing her as a great and progressive nation keyed to global economics. (THE CHINESE ARE A CAPABLE AND PROGRESSIVE PEOPLE) At Mr. Nixon’s meeting with a group of Midwestern editors in Kansas City, he dropped a pertinent statement: that the Chinese people are creative and industrious. They are one of the most capable in the world, and 800,000,000 Chinese are going to be an enormous economic power. The Soviet Union may have lost a colossal ally by not being able to reconcile their ideological differences with this powerful nation. We were the only major nation able to take this important step. It is hoped that the Chinese will not become an economic danger to us as the Japanese have, but that is the risk we must take. Few students of China believe that China will become an aggressive economic competitor to us anytime soon. Not in the next 20 years do we have anything to fear. Radio Peking may tone down its pugnacious broadcasting to prepare the Chinese public for the visit. Community Facilities Plan, Augusta-Richmond County Planning Commission July, 1968.

"GOING Z > PLACES” rt f Philip Waring GREATEST AMERICAN RACIAL FORUM COBO HALL, Detroit, Michigan -- Well over 4,000 Americans, black, white, yellow, red and brown, have gathered here for the 61st National Urban League (NUL) Conference entitled “Which Way America?” As in past years, it is by far America’s greatest annual race relations forum. Present are governors, mayors, senators, cabinet officers and Federal officials, black militants, youth groups, captains of industry (including top officials from nearby Ford and General Motors), presidential hopefuls and ordinary good solid citizens. The American media are here in force - key daily newspapers, all major radio and television networks, UPI, AP coupled with the Negro/Black press. The famous “Old Gray Lady”, as many pros term the influential N.Y. Times, has two crack reporters covering events. And we almost forgot to mention two members of the Black Congressional Black Caucus, who addressed the conference. American business, industry, governmental and educational institutions have booths and representatives in the exhibition area - over 200 of them. OUR GEORGIA BOY REALLY CUTS THE MUSTARD While some were unacquainted with Vernon E. Jordan’s exciting eleven years of outstanding public service, others wanted to see and hear for themselves. And what they did see and hear I was impressive indeed! This tall and personable Georgian came I out of his new corner moving onto the Urban League stage of I conferences, meetings, media interviews giving a warm, folksy I stance which reminded one of Will Rogers. In just a few minutes, I however, one could sense the presence of a dynamic and I perceptive individual with what my old dad, J.P., called “a mind I sharp as a steel trap”. To old time Urban League staff and I volunteers (and there are loads of them in our 61-year-old I Movement) Vernon passed the test with flying colors. In other I words, as we say down home, “Our Georgia Boy Really Cut The I Mustard!” before leaders of our nation! And our Movement is I quite fortunate because Mr. and Mrs. Jordan, Mr. and Mrs. Harold I Sims, the late Whitney Young, Jr. and his beloved wife, Margaret, I were all very close friends. This means that the Urban League will I undergo a major leadership transition involving five people who I are good friends. Mr. Jordan’s conference speech appears else- I where in the NEWS-REVIEW. MRS. JORDAN IS BEAUTIFUL GEORGIA PEACH The conference paid warm tributes to the late Whitney M.l Young, Jr. and his many accomplishments on the expansion of I the League during his ten year administration. And Mrs. Margaret' Young did a marvelous job of publicly passing on her “First : it’s our 100 th : : ANNIVERSARY. : : COME HELP us : ; CELEBRATE! : 1 QJw. a. wj / i , r ± i ip \ /| ■ I MEI*/ I .

Jordan, asking members of the League to also be kind to her. Mrs. Jordan is the former Shirley M. Yarborough of Atlanta and is a beautiful and charming “Georgia Peach.” AUGUST ANS ATTEND URBAN LEAGUE CONFERENCE Over the past twenty years as I travel to various cities attending Urban League meetings, I’ve always been fortunate in visiting with former Augustans. In Detroit it was indeed good inviting Mr. and Mrs. Willie Louis (Ann Harper) and Mrs. Corneilus (Ellen Harper) Campbell down to the conference. We also had Alec Reid’s widow, Mrs. Juanita Reid and daughter, Mona, at the breakfast for A.J. Allen. All of them send warm regards to relatives and friends in Augusta. ;, GOOD PUBLICATIONS YOU SHOULD READ e i May 1 recommend several good publications you should get. t They include: (1) the current edition of Ebony magazine which features what is happening in the South; (2) Contact magazine, 1 published by Richard Clarke Associates (on black involvement) f which has pictorial and historical material on the Urban League 1 Movement and (3) the Augusta NEWS-REVIEW, which did a masterful and first-of-its kind editorial job of spotlighting bias 1 reporting in the Augusta daily Chronicle. lam forwarding extra ; copies of Contact to the Wallace Branch and Paine College s Libraries and another to Mr. Mallory Millender for those who r would like to view Contact. ■ M I HH ■ | j •I ■ : '• I • , - ■ ■ I MB| ■ ■ I BI B| -L 1 "THE COMPANY THAT CARES" 'Sg B WE TRY A LITTLE HARDER- B B —BECAUSE WF ARE BLACK !!!
