McConnell 1324 Washington St. Phone 276-2755 BY THE WAY (Continued from page 1) —but it’s not for me.” The fact that such thoughts, coming from a Negro, should seem unique is merely a meas urement of how cruel has been the distortion of the image of the millions of fine Negro citizens who are living respon sible, constructive lives. It is these who have been forced to endure the pain of being lumped with the minority of their own race who have been given the greatest attention by the news media. The Clarence Reynoldses of America have been virtually ignored. This man has no regrets a- bout his humble beginning. To the contrary, he takes pride in it. “My parents,” he said “were too proud to beg and refused any sort of aid.” They were determined to do for themselves. “That was my humble beginning,” he said, “and one I am proud of. I bless my parents every day of my life for giving me that foundation, that heritage of pride, of grit, of intestinal for titude, which no bankruptcy can take away from me.” If we can add a postscript to Mr. Reynolds’ eloqoent tes timony, his parents taught him the meaning of America. And, whether they knew it or not, they were showing him the only true road for advancement —not merely for Negroes but for all men who wish to make the most of their liberty and opportunity.
