Divorce in Process
The marriage has gone sour. The divorce is in
process. It’s the blues all over again.
That, as good as any, is an advance epitaph to
the Carl Stokes administration in Cleveland. Stokes
declares he won’t run for
a third term. His post as
mayor gi>es up for grabs
next November.
With the announce­
ment — made first to his
family and unanimously
approved by his close km;
revealed next to the VIPs
of the town during a pri­
vate party at his home;
announced then to an hon­
oring audience of 3.000 in
the Grand Ballroom of the
Sheraton-Cleveland Hotel:
discussed in a midnight
CARL STOKES
session with the press
a g re a t dream d is in te g ra te d in to bits and pieces o f dis­
app o in tm e n t. bitterness, and c ritic is m .
Stokes, a handsome man, h ig h ly in te llig e n t and
a rtic u la te , tradem arked b j his im m aculate dress, had
« o n co n tro l of C lexeland's m unicipal governm ent in
rough, tough p o litic a l cam paigns and his election tw ice
to the m a yo ra lty had suggested some k in d o f new- day
fo r the place p u b licists call “ the best location in the
n a tio n .”
But if that dav had come, it had also gone, and the
sad fact it left behind was simply this; As good as he
was. as optimistic as he had been, as hard as he had
tried, Carl Stokes was not the savior. He owned no
magic wand. He was the chosen one but he held title to
no panaceas. He couldn't save a troubled toppling town
with good intentions, or with charisma.
That is not to say he did no good. Oh, he did much
good. He broadened the horizon for the city’s blacks
and more than a few whites. He certainly inspired as­
pirant black office-holders around the nation. He
proved to the downtown Cleveland businessmen that
the mayor’s office is important and vital to the city.

To Join in Crime Fight
The nation was warned last
week that rising crime rates
were "exacerbating racial ten­
dons” and called black and
white groups to join hands in
fighting urban crime and re­
forming the nation's criminal
Justice system.
Richard Ravitch of New
York, chairman of the National
Comnusssion on Urban Affairs
of the American Jewish Con­
gress, told a conference of the
organizations urban affairs
chairmen from various parts
of the country meeting here:
“ In our concern for the root
causes of crime — poverty,
unemployment, alipnation and
racial prejudice — we cannot
neglect the more immediate
problem of dealing with safety
In the streets, drug addiction,
crowded court calendars and
prisons that teach crime in-
atead of rehabilitating prison­
ers.
Black i White Together
“ Efforts by the white and
black communities together to
take immediate steps available
to us to fight crime may also
help to redure the tensions and
hostilities that have resulted
from the increase in crime,
particularly crimes against the
person.
“ Finally, suck joint short-
range efforts to control crime
can generate an atmosphere in
which the more basic long­
term causes of crime can also
be pursued.”
Ravitch cautioned that “ un­
less ail Americans interest
themselves in the problems of
crime, law enforcement and
criminal Justice, these prob­
lems win continue to be left to
those who have only the easy
answers of repression — those
to whom law and order are but’
code wogdx for deprivation of,
liberties and unequal justice, j
•those who are willing to sacri-;
flee fairness, due process and
personal rights and beliefs in,
their pursuit of a safer socie
ty .”
Challenging
“ uninformed,
uasophiabi ited, • simplistic no­
tions which liqk race and
crime,” the American Jewish
Congress leader said minority
communities “ suffer as se­
riously as the majority com­
munity from the financial, psy­
chological ind physical dep­
redations of crime.”
Minority groups, Ravitch
said, "are all too often those
most severely victimized by in­
adequate police protection itn
proper police training, police
overreactlno, corruption and
other failures of law enforce­
ment.
"Similarly the overcrowding
of our urban lower courts and
the assembly-line Justice they
are forced to administer — of­
ten no justice at all — burden
primarily the poor and the

"The social and financial
costs of maintaining
the
present ineffective system are
incalculable,”
Ravitch
as­
serted.
Anti Crime projects
Charging that 80 per cent of
the early money allocated un­
der the I96R federal anti-crime
act went to "heavy weaponry,
better police training or prison
reform," Ravitch urged that
private citizens groups "close­
ly monitor the allocation of
crime control funds by the
States."
The commission adopted a
five-point program of "action
and information" to help fight
urban crime and strengthen
criminal Justice, consisting of:
• Working with legislators,
bar association «roups and
community groups in demand­
ing prompt court and prison
reform.
• Working closely with local
police in seeking better en­
forcement of the law, especial­
ly in the distribution and sale
of narcotics.
• Urging that drug addic­
tion be viewed as a medical
problem and that (Jpig renters

drugs under meifeif direction
and to establish rehabilitation
programs.
Mayor T e rry D.Schrunk
I recently received a com­
munication from a young mao
who asked the question, “ Many
young people cleaned up gar­
bage and litte r from public and
private property on Earth
Day. Wouldn’t It be a good
Idea to promote this kind of
activity 365 days a year?”
There is no question that
U tter cleanup must be constant
process and not a once- a-
year project. It alsooccursto
me that If we could In still lo t lie
minds of young and old alike
the thought that any piece of
paper, bottle, can or other
material cast along roadways
o r left at picnic sites Is a
blemish to our environment
and the need for cleanup drives
would be eliminated If we
would all use suitable con­
tainers fi.r even the tiniest
piece of trash.
In answer to my young
friend’ s request that I pro­
mote this thought. I am Issu­
ing this b rie f statement la
the hopes that it wUl en­
courage people to keep our
area clean and free of debris
and throw aways that som e­
times are dangerous as well
as unsightly.
