invited
1 believe that Senator Mc
Govern w ill bring an end to the
era of division In our nation
and w ill usher In a new era of
reconciliation.
I believe Senator McGovern
can provide the moral leader
ship that w ill coalesce the
forces of goodwill In the nation
that w ill create tbs conditions
that w ill transform my hus
band's dream Into a living
reality.
A t this tim e, I would like to
take these next few minutes to
outline the teasons why I be
gan to listen carefully to what
the Senator has had to say and
also to share with you the po
sition we have arrived at jo in t
ly which ultim ately led me to
make this endorsement.
F irs t of a ll, the McGovern
campaign has, from the begin
ning, struck themes which
have paralleled my own views
and those causes to which my
husband gave his life force;
compassion and equality fo r
the poor, the disenfranchised,
the Black, the Chicano, and the
native Americans: the a rticu
lation of a dream of a unified
America In which everyone.
Black, White, Brown and Red
alike have the opportunity to
enjoy the fru its of their labors
in dignity and equality; abhor-
rance of war; and the invest
ment of a fa r la rger share of
Am erica’ s wealth In the wel
fare of Tier people and the la ti
ne of her society rather than
on the excessive and continu
ous stockpiling and use of the
weapons of death and destruc
tion.
M oreover, many of the
stands Senator McGovern has
already taken and the positions
we have arrived at jo in tly have
many points of conjunction
with the developing Black pol i-
tical thought, as expressed at
the Gary convention and in the
developmental work on the Na
tional Black P olitical Agenda
which has been done since the
convention.
Some of (he specific points
of the McGovern Program
which led me to listen care
fu lly to what the senator had
to say are tie I ol low ing:
I.) On taxation and the econ
omy, Geoige McGovern has
promised to affect a re d is tri
bution of tie wealth in this
country by closing the ta x
loopholes which benefit the
rich and by requiring Am er
ican industry to bear its fa ir

Good
self-government. In addition.
Senator McGovern agrees to
reverse the policies of thia
government which give aid and
com fort to the repressive re
gimes of South A frica and
Rhodesia, which seem deter
mined to deny in perpetuity the
fu ll human rights of our Black
sisters and brothers living In
those nations.
Thus, In view of the posi
tions he has taken and the mu
tual understandings we have
reached. It Is clear to me that
Senator McGovern's concern
and regard tor the dignity and
the rights of poor and op
pressed peop.e everywhere -
his interest in the common
man, be he W h ite , Red,
Brown, or Black - far exceeds
that of any other candidate -
Republican or [democratic -
now In the field. F o r those
reasons, then, and fo r his in
te g rity as a human being and
a political man. 1 am proud to
endorse George McGovern’ s
candidacy for the Presidency.

ment - to the extent that It is
passed
beck Into private
hands - w ill be made available
tor the purposes of this new
program rather than putting It
Into tie hands of private fo r
p ro fit land speculators.
2. ) The problems of employ
ment and education are Inex
trica b ly linked. As I have
already noted. Senator Mc
Govern has developed a pro
gram for full employment, but
1 do not want to leave the em
ployment
opportunities of
young Blacks Just entering the
Job merket to chance o rto co n -
slgn them forever to the low
est rungs on the employment
ladder, nor does the Senator.
And, we have also agreed that
the m in o rity veterans deserve
special attention In this con
nection. To that end. the Sen
ator and 1 have agreed that a
substantial proportion of his
$15 to$24 billion annual educa
tional program w ill be speci
fic a lly targeted at providing
quality education for m inority
and poor youth, that he w ill use
the executive powers to the
fullest to Implement the 14th
Amendment
in educational
matters and that specific man
power training and Job coun
seling services w ill be ta r
geted on the needs of returning
m inority veterans who need
such services to enter the la
bor market with dignity and
with hope. Moreover, George
McGovern has pledged to in
crease federal aid to Black in
stitutions of higher education
by 20 per cent over the amount
now being expended by the fed
eral government.
3. ) A t my urging and that of
my friend and colleague. Con
gressman W alterE .Fauntroy,
Senator McGovern has gen
erally endorsed the Washing
ton Agenda developed by the
delegation to the Democratic
National Convention from the
D is tric t of Columbia. F irs t
and foremost, this Agenda
provides fo r s e lf-d e te rm in j-
tion fo r the residents of the
Natton‘ s Capital and fo r the
end of colonial rule of that
city.
4. ) And In the field of foreign
policy, the senator has agreed
to end, if elected, the provision
of the m aterials of w a rto d ic -
tatorships such as B r a z i l ,
Greece, Portugal, and other
such nations which have been
using those m aterials to re
press the legitimate and full
human aspirations of the peo
ple, including those undei
lonial rule fo r ireedom and

His nominees are then turned
ovei to the academies fo r ap
pointment.
■hare of tie tax burden to the
re lie f of prxjr and middle in
cone groupa suffering from
high tax rates and inflation
The Senator also plans a p ro
gram of full employment fo r
all by substantially Increasing
the nation's housing efforts
and by expanding public ser
vice employment. This is of
particularly striking Impor
tance to Black Vietnam veter
ans and to youngsters between
the ages of 16 and 25, whose
life chances are sharply d i
minished by the lack of Job op
portunités for tle m .
2. ) George McGovern was
the firs t and has been the most
consistent opponent of the In
dochina war in the United
States Senate. I know how
lonely and d ifficu lt such oppo
sition could be back lnthe60*s
because 1 watched the attempts
to Isolate and v ilify my hus
band because of hla opposition
lo this cruel and wasteful war.
3. ) There has never been any
real question as to where the
Senator has stood on the ques
tion of equal rightsforw otnen.
»Ils position has been strong
and consistent in opposing all
forms of sex discrim ination.
He has pledged to by-pass by
fa r. In hla administration, any
goals that smack of tokenism
and to appoint women to all
levels of government Including
the Supreme Court, the Cabi
net, National Security Council,
and the United Nations.
4. ) And finally, the Senator
recognizes that heroin is a
particularly murderous prob
lem in Black and Brown com
munities throughout the United
States and he has vowed to in
crease
vastly the federal
funds available lo anack this
problem and to mount a fo rce
ful five pronged attack on it.
In the discussions I have had
with SenatorMcGovern, I have
drawn heavily on the collective
Black political wisdom which
was expressed In the Gary
convention and in the subse
quent developmental efforts
which have occurred in its af
termath. We have come to
agreement on a number of is
sues which reflect that think
ing and my own. 1 shall m ere
ly mention two or three of the
most important areas this
morning.
I.) I believe, and the senator
agrees, that this nation must
develop a new urban and rural
land use policy which recog
nizes the yearnings of m inor
ity group members to own the
homes in which they live and
the land upon which they work.
To this end. Senator McGovern
and his staff have agreed to
work out a new p ro g rjm to
provxle free interest and low
interest loans to low income
persons for tlie acquisition of
property In both rural ami u r
ban areas. They have also
agteed to develop a policy
requiring that tlie steadily in
creasing
acreage of land
