Government

Bans

Negro
PAC Leader
Underground
Reserves Appear;
Raids Net Hundred
JOHANNESBURG W) - South
Africa's government, methodically
mopping up foes of its white su-
premacy policies, banned two big
Negro political organizations yes-
terday.
Defiantly, the imprisoned lead-
er of one declared "we are going
underground."
w Afield, fresh reserve troops were
mobilized for the battle the gov-
ernment appeared to have all but
won. Predawn police raids in five
cities netted more than 100 per-
sons, including some white men
and Indians suspected of backing
the Negro fight against segrega-
tion.
T h r e e hundred well - armed
police, backed by armored cars,
swept through the Negro settle-
ment of Pimville, 15 miles south-
east of Johannesburg, arresting
several hundred persons and seiz-
ing battleaxes and other weapons.
Police said they had learned
hoodlums were trying to take over
the settlement. Not a shot was
fired.
Outlawed for a year under the
National Emergency Act were the
militant Pan Africanist Congress
(CAP PAC), which claims 31,000
members, and the larger and more
moderate African National Cong-
ress (ANC).
Their chiefs are under arrest
for promotion of demonstrations
and riots initially aimed against
the South African law that re-
quires nonwhites to carry identi-
fication papers at all times.
The vow to carry on in secret
was voiced by PAC president Man-
galisco Sobukwe, a former univer-
sity instructor in languages, in a
Johannesburg courtroom where
he is on trial with 22 associates
for incitement of Negroes
"Are you now going under-
ground?" Sobukwe was asked by
a reporter for the Associated
Press.
"Yes, we are going under-
ground," he replied.
Troops called up yesterday were
a battalion or so of the South
African Irish regiment, a Johan-
nesburg unit.

Political

Groups

NEW WORLD FORCE:
Nationalism Rising in Africa,

The rising tide of African nat-
ionalism will project conflicts of
interest into world politics and
open great opportunities in new
nations for outsiders such as the
United States and Russia.
Prof. Henry L. Bretton of the
political science department pre-
sented his "Observations on In-
ternational Politics in Africa" at
the 65th annual Adult Education
Institute at the University.
"Until the end of World War II,
seven out of eight Africans, Negro
or white, were spoken for and rep-
resented in international politics
by the relatively unanimous voice
of the colonial powers.
Voices Speak
"During the next decade, the
African continent will rapidly
approach a state where some 30
to 40 voices will speak for the 200
million inhabitants," he predicted.
Conflicting interests, including
religious rivalry, racial, ethnic,
economic and personal problems,
"will now be projected onto the
stage of world politics," said Bret-
ton, who anticipates that outside
nations will inject themselves into
the affairs of the newly-inde-
pendent African nations.
"The momentum of anti-colon-
ialism will operate for the first
years of independence to eclipse
divisive factors such as personal
rivalries, economic and ethnic con-
flicts.
In time, however, the divisive
factors will come to the fore. That
will be the period of maximum
opportunity for positive as well
as negative, for constructive as
well as destructive, influences to
make themselves felt.'
Three Major Groups
He summed up three major
groups of contenders for African
influence and power as follows:
The European Powers -- Most
of the new African states are cul-
turally, economically, politically
and miktarily dependent upon the
European powers, and there is,
generally speaking, relatively lit-
tle bitterness between African
leaders and their former colonial
masters.
Against the Europeans are the
presence of suspicion and the in-
ability of France and Great Brit-
ain to make a clean break with'
racial discrimination or colonial-
ism, as in Algeria, Kenya the
Rhodesias and South Africa.

The Soviet Union - The Afri-
cans do not classify Russia as a
colonial power. The Soviet eco-
nomic development is sufficiently
recent and similar to the experi-
ence of most African states that
Africans look there for inspira-
tion rather than to the more
advanced and longer - established
Western industrial nations.
Communism is generally un-
known in Africa, and curiosity
alone militates in its favor. And
Russia lacks the diplomatic re-
strictions of Western powers.
Against the Soviet Union is its
failure to demonstrate a willing-

ness to avoid all racial discrimin-
ation, and suspicion in some
quarters that it wants to gain
power and influence in Africa at
the African's expense.
The United States-The United
States has a good record with
respect to colonies and colonial
'relationships. Africans can iden-
tify with the American struggle
for independence. Other favorable
factors are the glittering attrac-
tion of the American way of life,
the United States extension of aid
of various types, and restrained
leadership in the United Nations
and elsewhere.

Farm Riots
Show Anger
A.t Premier
PARIS (A) - President Charles
DeGaulle came home yesterday
from three triumphant days in
London, and found a packet of
trouble awaiting him.
French farmers, still angry at
his refusal to call Parliament to
discuss their woes, were far from
appeased by his latest offer of
long-range aid.
Agriculture M i n i s t e r Henry
Rochereau sent Parliament the
text of four bills which put the
government's farming policy in
concrete form for the coming
years. They providedhmoderni-
zation subsidies, increased train-
ing programs and sick benefit in-
surance for all who work the land.
The plan calls for Parliamentary
committees to start discussing
them now, so they can be debated
when the National Assembly re-
sumes its session April, 26.
But reaction from the farmers
was disturbing.
Within hours of his arrival from
London, De Gaulle was closeted
with his Prime Minister, Michel
Debre, to discuss the problem.
The main objection of farmers
is that the government's propos-
als, while not ungenerous in them-
selves, will have no immediate
effect on their tight budgets.
Massive demonstrations Thurs-
day all over France showed they
mean business. Farm union lead-
ers estimated the turnout at 400,-
000. Government officials set it
at 200,000-a figure most inde-
pendent sources judged far too'
low.

DETROIT (A) - Two powerful
groups within the American As-
sociation of University Professors
yesterday assailed present and
former state officials of South
Carolina for what they called in-
tolerable interference in the ad-
ministration of two private Negro
colleges.
The Committee on Academic
Freedom and Tenure and the
AAUP Council, a legislative and
policy making group, singled 'out
former Gov. George Bell Tim-
merman, Jr., Jessie T. Anderson,
state superintendent of education,
and the South Carolina State
Board of Education.
Their vote of condemnation
stems from the dismissal in 1958
of three white faculty members
at Benedict College and one Negro

NEGRO SCHOOLS:
Professors Blast Dismissals

u

and two white faculty members
at Allen University.
An investigating committee of
the AAUP has reported that the
state officials gave the two schools
this ultimatum: dismiss the six
teachers or suffer loss of accredit-
ation. Such loss of accreditation
threatened the very survival of
the institutions, the committee
said.
Accreditation actually was with-
drawn from Allen for a short per-
iod.
T h e investigating committee
said there were charges, never
substantiated, that the six teach-
ers were Communists. The truth
is, the committee added, that they
were known to favor racial inte-
gration and the Governor's actions

"were rooted in his determinatic
. to maintain racial segrega
tion at all costs."
The committee said that the si
teachers were .denied due aca
demic process. "They were no
supplied with a written list (
specific charges supposedly just
fying their dismissals, they wer
given no severance pay, they wei
not given due notice of dismissa
and in no instance were the
granted the hearings they requesi
ed and to which they were er
titled."
The motion adopted yesterda
condemned the state officials fo
"their conduct in using the state
accrediting power to force th-
dismissal of six faculty membei
at these two private colleges.

Dear Dr. Frood: I am writing my term
paper and would like to know how the
average professor differentiates between
research and plagiarism?
Lit. Major
Dear Lit: Plagiarism is when you copy
your paper from a book. Research is when
you copy your paper from more than
one book.
Dear Dr. Frood: I was shocked when
I read of ghostwriting firms preparing
term papers for certain college students.
But I was doubly horrified, upset and
stunned when I heard a rumor that you,
Dr. Frood, also use a ghost. Tell me it
isn't so, Doctor.
Jacob Marley
Dear Jacob: I categorically deny your
accusation. I do not use, nor have I ever
dsed, a ghost to write this column. I admit,
however, that when confronted with cer-
tain difficult student problems, I have
called upon my late departed Uncle
Purdy for advice and counsel.
