African Leader
Pleads For End Of
Mau Mau Terror

NAIROBI, Kenya, Dec. 15-One
of the leaders of the African legis-
lature may have signed his own
death warrant last week when he
made radio plea to Kikuyu tribes
men to abandon the Mau Mau cru
SADIE to drive white settlers out
of Africa.
The African leader, Aliud Mathu.
denounced the anti-white Mau Mau
cult in their own language and
stated that their terror ridden ac-
tiOns were ''all deeds of evil"
British authorities provided po-
lice guards for Mathu, chief men,
Der of the Kenya legislative coun-
Gil, and for Harry Thuku, a Kiku-
va farmer and fellow signer of
the statement Mathu broadcast.
The broadcast was regarded here
as the most important since the
Mau Mau began its campaign aim
ed at driving the. white man from
Kenya.
If you continue to follow this
evil association of Mau Mau under
whatever name it stands for, you
are spelling the land and putting
the clock back" Mathu said. He
called particularly on Christians to
stand firm and said, 1--WE will ask
the government to try to find extra
living space for our people peace
fully"
Thousands of Kikuyu are being
evicted from urban areas where
they have lived as squatters, Mathu
said. Some are being sent back to
overcrowded Kikuyu tribal lands
because of the murders and other
Mau Mau crimes.

Mississippi Negro Leaders Reveal
No Unexpected Reaction To
School, Segregation Case
Rev. HI. H. Hume, President Of State
Baptist Convention, Takes Firm Stand
For Segregated School

JACKSON, Miss, Dec. Is
(DSN)-The public statements of
Negro leaders in Mississippi, as
reported in press dispatches last
week, revealed no unexpected re-
action to the history making suit
to abolish segregation in the pub
lie school system of the South,
and of the nation, argued by some
of the nations foremost Negro
and white lawyers before the
United States Supreme Court last
week on which the decision is now
pending.
In the published statements none
of the Negro leaders took a firm
stand against segregated public
schools, although the practice of
the system over the past eighty
years finds the Negro schools of
Mississippi today the worst in the
nation many official promises of
improvements and a new building
program instituted during the past
few years.
While some of the Negro lead
ers quoted revealed an effort to at
least do some hedging on the
question, Rev. H. H. Hume. Presi-
dent of the General Baptist State
Convention Of Mississippi, and ed
ltor and publisher of a Negro week
ly, the Delta Leader, of Greenville.
took a firm stand in favor of con-
tlnued segregation in the schools.
In an article by Associated Press
staff writer Walter Keith Fuller.
ltev. hassssrsrsr~luoted as saying:
he Negro leaders who are try-
ing to break down segregation are
fumbling the ball in attacking the
separate school system. They
overlooked the harm that could be
done to their own children at a
time IN life when their PERSONAL
pies need nourishment and guild
ance," and that IF the U. S. Su-
preme Court rules out segregation
IN schools it will deprive Negro
youth of the right to set in a
friendly environment and receive
instructions from sympathetic
teachers of his own race" adding
that the great majority of Missis-
slppl Negroes will be opposed to
forced Indignation.

away.

presently. Cant it, Nellie?"
