Council passes
tax resolution
By BARBARA FUSSELL
Fountainhead City Bureau
The Greenville City Council
passed a resolution Oct. 9
supporting a one per cent sales
tax. Citizens of Pitt County
will vote on the tax issue Nov.
4.
fcvolving from the 1969
General Assembly's action to
grant home rule to the
counties, the referendum calls
f0i levying a penny tax on sales
subject to the present three per
sales tax.
The tax involves items such
the sale of consumer goods,
iceipts from hotel and
moms, laundries and dry
lers.
If approved, the tax will
ne effective March 1,
I970.
Officials estimate it will
bring in revenues exceeding $1
million for Pitt County.
Greenville's portion would be
$244,000. The only
portion the state collects is one
fifth of a cent
According to City Manager
Harry Hagerty the additional
tax is designed to bring relief
to property owners who now
shoulder the major tax burden,
since taxes are presently the
only means of city government
revenue. This tax broadens the
base of taxation, Hagerty said.
All consumers, including
ECU students, will share the
responsibility of the
community finances.
In the University's case,
students use facilities at least
nine months a year; yet,
because they are not property
owners they contribute
nothing toward the
maintenance of the city,
Hagerty said.
Hagerty said that if the tax
is not passed, it will simply
result in higher property taxes.
This, in turn, will raise rents,
he said. To compensate, store
owners will raise merchandise
prices. In any event, it will
eventually affect the consumer,
he said.

Continued from page 2
candlelight march through the
downtown area past the Army
induction station where names
of North Carolina war dead

Greensboro at 630 p.m.
Jeffress said Davidson
College has called off classes
for the day and Wake Forest
University and Belmont Abbey
College have called them off
for an hour while moratorium
programs are held at noon.
Some institutions apparently
plan to charge students vith
absences if they cut classes to
attend moratorium programs.
But others, like Duke, have no
class attendance requirements.
Administrators of units of
the consolidated university of
North Carolina and Duke have
notified their faculty members
to meet their scheduled classes
as usual.
Jeffress said faculty
members are being urged to
either reschedule classes, spend
class time discussing the
Vietnam war, or have their
classes participate in seminar
programs on the war.
The Young Americans for
Freedom, an organization
which opposes the antiwar
demonstration, said it will sue
any state institution which
does not require faculty
mbers to meet their classes
as usual.
Dub Gulley, who is heading
up the moratorium program at
Duke, said students at the
Duke Law School, which
President Nixon attended, sent
the President a telegram
expressing "disappointment
and disgust" at the way the
war is being handled.
Moratorium programs for
some of the state's colleges and
universities include:
University of North Carolina
at Chapel Hill Plans call for a
convocation in the late
afternoon at which speakers
will include Dr. J. Carlyle
Sitterson, the school's
chancellor, Dr Howard Levy,

refusing to train medics for
service in Veitnam, and Jack
Newfield, assistant editor of
the Village Voice in New York.

Music slides produce confusion
No words.
Just sound: electronic
music.
And pictures: faces,
paintings, beauty, horror. . .
Mike Flinn had promised
not to say much at his program
last Wednesday night, and he
stuck to his promise.
He let his recordings and his
slides speak for him.
The communication was one
of thought, idea, and belief
through "sensual osmosis
The mood was felt, not
spoken. The eye and ear
coordinated an awakening that
completely bypassed the
necessity for words.
It brought out just about
every emotional response
possible.
There was an amazing
correlation between the slides
shown and the music. Each
complimented the other,
producing a sight and sound
phenomena that were
inseparable. They demanded
total involvement of the
viewer.
Everyone had a different
interpretation of what he felt
"This is the way it should
be Flinn said.
"It is all so ambiguous. Like
the 20th Century itself, the art
and music must be completely
new and unique
Artistic attempt
Flinn said his program was
"an attempt to show one has
to experience 20th Century
art, not just view it, but hear
and feel it. Everything from
city architecture to the
Vietnam War raises questions
instead of giving answers. As a
result, this art and music is
abstract, disjointed and
clashing.
The Union Coffee Shop
was packed with little standing
room left for the show.
Flinn emphasized that this
was not to be a classroom
situation, but an audiovisual
experience.
"Art and music is an
expression of what we are.
They have meaning when
integrated
Flinn, who has been
interested in electronic music
since he was a college senior in
Oregon, spent about 10 hours
putting the picutres and the
music for the program
together.
Slides were shown in r3pid
succession as four selections of
electronic music were played.
The first selection was
"lonizat.on" by Edger Varese.
The instruments in this record
were conventional mainly
drums and sirens used in
dramatic and unusual ways.
Synthetic music
Electronic synthesizers were
the only instruments in the
next two selections. They were
"Piece for Electric
Synthesizer" by Milton Babbitt
and "Electronic Study Number
One" by David-Owski.
During the last few minutes
of this selection, there was a
black-out in which the viewer
had a chance to project the
images in his own mind rather
FLINN ARRANGES slides for his art card and
MIKE
show.
than view more slides.
By this time, tension and
emotion had risen so high in
the room that Flinn asked for a
brief interlude to "clear the
music
air.
The
second half of the
program was perhaps more
compelling than the first.
Through the skillful
manipulation of slides, Flinn
attempted to tell four stories,
beginning with childhood

The second story was a
dream sequence affected
through the use of landscape
scenes.

Next came the experienced
woman in contemporary
society. This sequence carried
her through the stages of first
self-awareness, parental
pressure, and eventual
acceptance of herself.
Last was an "Alienation
-Agression War This was done
mainly with pictures of Christ.
The crucifiction was of
particular interest.
The background music for
the stories was "Cycle in Bells
for Tape Recorders and
Orchestra" by Otto Lueminq
and Vladimir Ussachevski.
The end of the program
brought widespread applause,
and much confusion.
One boy said, "I don't know
what to say. I can not
comprehend what I just saw
Another said he was
"breathless through it all
Whatever the reaction,
everyone present was given a
rich hour of the best in pop
music and art.
Flinn said his purpose was
not to entertain, but to make
one experience art and music
and the way the two relate to
our emotions.

Martha (Mart.) Vanhoy. a junior

Women's A.r Force (WAF). Mart,
was required to take a written
test, which was basically a mental
aptitude test, to pass a physical
and to have an interview by a
board of officers of the Air Force.
The real test of her ambition,
however, didn't begin until this
summer when Marti, along with
six other college co eds from all
over the United States, went to
Myrtle Beach Air Force Base for
six weeks of field training.
There she became acquainted
with the customs and courtesies
of the Air Force, the drilling
procedures, and the academic
courses

Although there was little time
for social activities, Marti had no
complaints with the male cadets'
behavior "I was treated like a

said
She said she became more

things like waiting for a door to

The draft: change is on the way
By BILL CONNELLY
Washington Correspondent

WASHINGTON
way or another, the Selective Service System is going to be
huled next year. If Congress doesn't enact legislation by Jan.
I P dKlent Nixon has promised to make massive administrative
Irhanaes in the draft.
At this point, it looks as if the job will be left to the President.
, use of its slow pace this year. Congress has a large backlog of
k and is unlikely to get around to draft refrom before
adiournmen-tr-
Without authority from Congress, the President cannot institute
the new lottery selection system that he prefers. But he does have
enough administrative powers to create something very similar.
The President plans to begin a system that will make young men
vulnerable to the draft for only one year (at age 19) rather than for
the present seven and one half years (from 18 to 26).
It would work something like this: In each month, the Selective
Service boards would meet the draft quota by choosing at random
from the young men in the prime age group who were closest to
their 20th birthdays.
If a young man got through his 19th year without being
inducted, he would be home free. He could then plan his life and
career without having to worry again about being interrupted for
military service.
College men still could get student deferments. But after
graduation, each would have to take his turn in the eligibility pool
with the 19 year-olds for one year.
This system is not President Nixon's first choice. He would
prefer a genuine lottery system, in which a random drawing of
birth dates before each new year would determine which
19 to 20 year-old men would be draft bait that year. This would
remove even more of the uncertainty for draft-age men.
But the President cannot install his preferred system until he
gets authority from Congress, which in 1967 specifically prohibited
the executive branch from creating a draft lottery by
administrative action.
Whatever happens, the young man of eligible age today has an
increasingly good chance of being passed over by his draft board.
This is not to say he can relax and forget it, but the facts are:
1 Fewer people are going to be drafted. President Nixon
reduced by 50,000 the number of men to be called up in the last
quarter of 1969. (This is not so impressive when one considers that
the total number of draftees for the year-290,400-will be only
6,000 less than in 1968. Still, the trend is down for the first time in
recent years.
2 If the administration carries out its plan to steadily turn more
of the war effort over to the South Vietnamese
("Vietnamization"), the draft calls will continue to get smaller.
Monthly quotas of about 15,000 almost half the present rate-are
being predicted for next spring.
3 Secretary of Defense Melvin Laird has ordered manpower
reductions of 50,000 for the Air Force and 20,300 for the Marine
Corps, and there may be further personnel cutbacks.
4. Stronger efforts will be made to attract volunteers. President
Nixon's critics contend that these changes in the draft are tactical
moves to pacify college students. They say the President merely
wants to quiet student dissent for a few months without making
really substantial changes in Vietnam policy.
But whaterver the President's motives, most draft-age men are
likely to be pleased with his proposals for reducing both the
vulnerability period and the number of men inducted.
Moreover, the administration already has made some key
reforms.
The president has ordered that drafted graduate students be
allowed to finish their academic year before induction. Up to now,
they have only been allowed to wait until the end of the semester.
Also, the administration has formed Youth Advisory
Committees in each state to suggest changes in the operation of the
draft. And the Pentagon has begun a study aimed at developing
uniform policies for the nation's 4,000 local boards.
In discussing the draft, it is hazardous in the extreme to make
predictions. As history indicates the system can be and often is
changed quickly to meet new military needs or to satisfy
congressional whims.
But right now it seems that forces are converging to make the
draft fairer and less disruptive for the nations's youth. And beyond
this, there is the Nixon campaign pledge-recently repeated-to see
an all volunteer army when the Vietnam war ends.

By BENCURRENCE
"For once, black people
are going to use the words they
want to use-not just the words
whites want to hear. An they
will do this no matter how
often the press tries to stop the
use of the slogan by equating it
with racism or separatism
-Stokely Carmichael
SNCC
The civil rights era is dead
and in it's place camethe angry
cry of "Black Power This
slogan can be clearly defined
for those who do not attach
the fears of white America to
their questions about it.
But, as there are many
interpreters, there are as many
interpretations. From these
interpretations arises at least
four different forumlations of
black power to be considered.
First comes black power as
black capitalism. Leaders both
black and white, including our
president, have called for more
black ownership, black jobs
and black businesses stemming
from capital provided through
loans.
Electural politics have been
used as a means to get power.
Black political parties have
organized to place black men
in office who will remain
responsible to their people.
However, there are those who
hold that a black face in office
is not necessarily a form of
black power.
Thirdly, black power is seen
as black control of black
communities. This implies a
black effort to take control of
their own communities from
the white soverning structure
and business interests. As they
usually are of not relevant use
in the black community.
Floyd McKissick, national
director of CORE holds that
"ownership of businesses in the
ghetto must be transferred to
black people either
individually or collectively
radicals and other potentially
revolutionary segments of the
white population since,
according to its analysis,
genuine self-determination for
blacks cannot be achieved in
the framework of the present
capitalist imperialism and
racism which characterize the
U.S.
Links with the
revolutionary third world are
also stressed since the black
struggle will supposedly be
anticolonialist like other
national liberation movements,
and directed against a common
enemy: U.S. imperialism
Thus, we have four major
interpretations of the slogan
"Black Power They connote
self preservation, black pride
and a desire for the realization
of those concepts upon which
this country was founded. To
say that these interpretations
are Marxist, communistic, or
plain un-American is to show a
bias somewhere on the other
side of the spectrum.
However, black control of the
black community must not
result in black elite control to
support the power of the white
establishment over the black
ghetto.
Programs to better
individual black businessmen
are exactly for that. They are
not offered to the black
community as a whole and
thus are rejected by them.
As R.L. Allen of The
Guardian says: "Black power
is black liberation within the
context of a U.S. revolution.
This wing of the black power
movement, represented by the
Black Panthers, many members
of SNCC and various local
groups, views black people as a
dispersed internal colony of
the U.S exploited both
materially and culturally.
It advocates an
anticolonial struggle for
self-determination which must
go hand-in-hand with a general
revolution throughout the U.S.
It urges alliances with white
Nixon requests anti-
protest Moratorium
President Nixon has
requested a 60 day silence from
the American public.
From the moment of his
nomination in the summer of
1968, he has thrived upon
American "silence The
dissidents, the young and the
black, left him well alone
throughout the campaign and
they have ever since.
Why? Because no one
expect Richard Nixon to
strengthen the channels for
a c cess to government
responsiveness. His appeal,
more than any other leading
politician in this country, is
geared for the "forgotten
American" a simplistic code
word for the apathetic
middle-class citizen.
According to a Nixon
"image builder" the purpose of
the 1968 campaign was to
construct an Astrodome
-where the wind would never
blow and the ball would never
bounce erratically It worked
in November, but it will not
work now.
Nixon hinted that he had
some sort of secret solution for
Vietnam. He has been forgiven
for that ploy.
The New YorkCalifornia
Republican has come a long way
since his early days of
Red baiting, evidenced as late as
the 1960 campaign.
But that is a poor reason for
expecting him to be successful
in peace negotiations this time.
Richard Nixon has been
living in a vacuum for nine
months. Perhaps the Oct. 15
moratorium wil! help to
penetrate that insidious barrier.
N ixon can be a good
President. But he needs our
help. Badly.





I
Protest is stirring
appeal for peace
Reprinted from Tfte New York Times.
The Oct 15 Vietnam moratorium, inspired and
organized by students with the support of faculty
members, has turned from a localized protes of the
campus into a broad-based and st.rring national appeal
for peace. , .
The development gives the lie to those who claim
that only disruption and violence are effective in the
wloxto ra4nrm that thp nnlv thinq that can
eirort to achieve reTonn mu ? ? -
ke itself heard in this democracy is force.
THe persuasive dignity of the youthful planners of
the moratorium, who have been stressing rational pleas
f , reappraisal of the nation's role abroad and its
s at home, has the additional benefit of taking
the peace issue away from those who abuse it for their
- ulterior motives. It is at last re-establishing between
ampus a-d public that essential bond of trust and
lerstanding which the lawlessness of a few radical
jentshad threatened to break.
These gains have been unnecessarily marred by
misguided actions on the part of some university
facu :es who, in their fervor to support a noble cause,
have tried to make their institutions the monolithic and
therbv coercive spokesmen for what ought to remain a
matter for individual expression of conscience. Thus the
Harvard faculty took a fundamentally authoritarian step
when, b a scant majority of one, it defeated a motion
tc et its members oppose the war an individuals instead
of, collectively, as the apparent voice of the university.
Columbia's president, Andrew Cordier, tried to extricate
the university senate from a similar misuse of
institutional power by pointing out that its vote against
,var had not bee- 'tended to be binding on any
individual.
n the end, the best-intentioned desire of faculty
to enlist the universitv in an act of political
? esmansh p differs tt e ; principle from the effort
of soi e repressive jniversit goverr ng bodies to
jhibit ndividua participation in the protest. The
spec 3 er of the academic community, and
therefore ts peculiar responsibility, is to persuade by
reasoned argument without imposition of any stand.
r s:t: a Dpportur r the student-led moratorium
s tc shovs the power of "ree expression of the individual
consc ence.

Dear Editor:
are bringing to light a
very uncomfortable and
growing problem that prevails
in the basements of the dorms
on campus. That problem is
the tremendous rise in prices
that the present vending
supplier presses on the ECU
student.
Not that it really matters to
the vending company, but the
average student on campus
does have a limited ammount
of money to spend at school.
Most of rhat money goes into
the food category.
The student will, on the
average, spend approximately
S3 a day on food which of
course comes to about S2I a
week on meals. It seems as
though the student has been
conditioned to spend
tremendous amounts of money
for his food. This conditioning
has followed the student into
the basements of the dorms as
he gingerly pays an
unbelievable 20 cents for a soft
drink.
This is a rise of 5 cents a can
that probably costs the
manufacturer 3 cents a can to
product.
How can a half pint of milk
cost 15 cents a carton? That is
the same stable price of last
year but one could get one
third quart for the same price
last year.
We, the students, do realize
that the prices on consumer
products are spiraling all ovei
the country. That is obvious.
But the present vending
company which supplies the
student with such a large
surplus of "drinks and candy"
must exercise restraint at least
for the sake of the student.
We call on the Mens
Residence Council, the men
students and the women
students of ECU to boycott
the present vending company
which supplies the campus
with food.
