explained. She la an alternate
delegate to the National Con

" I t is really great to ha ve
this opportunity to become a
voice in our political pro
ce s s ," she added. Debra said,
" I hope to get more young
Blacks involved in Republican
a ctiv itie s .”
M r . Boyd, also an alternate
delegate, predicts that "m o re

think fo r themselves, w ill be

Blacks must be consulted by
those whom we know, by those
who speak the same lan
guage.”
A strong believer in the
work ethic so deeply embedded
In the Black community, M r.
Boyd told of having w orked fo r
8 cents an hour, Hewentfrom
th e occupation of farming to
school teaching and later be
came president of a college.
His views on work are very
pronounced. "T h e best thing
this nation can do is get people
off the welfare ro lls onto the
payrolls. Welfare corrupts
every phase of our lives; it
destroys
the incentive to
w o rk ." He pointed out that
"th e re is nothing more impor
tant in life than w ork. I sub
scribe to the old adage: "Give
a man a fish and he ran eat fo r
a day; teach him to fish and he
can eat fo r a life tim e .”
M r. Boyd expressed some
hope on the outcome of the
Convention in relating the Re
publican Party to Blacks. ” 1
hope the Republican Party
adopts a platform th a tw ill say
to America: ‘ We w ill have no
more give away programs; we
w ill help provide jobs to those
who need employment," " he
concluded.
