Of the closingS, Flemming said
there was little doubt that "the
lack of regular, constructive ac-
tivities in school can contribute
to delinquency"
In addition, he said, seniors

ters never will go back to school,
he said, while others will have

MISSING BENEFITS
He said children closed out Of
their schools are missing the
benefits of good literature, music
and other activities. The closings
also are impairing the develop
ment of citizenship, he said.
Flemming prepared the six
page statement in reply to

Conference AT ACCRA /.

NEW YORK, Dec. 4.-"The rise
of the African peoples to the
status of free nations has insplr-
ed Americans of African descent
and others of our fellow citizens
who love freedom for freedoms
sake" NAACP Executive Secre-
tary Roy wilkins says in mes
sage of greetings to the All
African Peoples Conference IN
Accra, Ghana, this week. The
conference which opens on Dec.
5 continues through Dec. II.
"The emergence of inaepend-
ent African states and the Strug-
g,e of other people to attain
that state have aided us In our
crusade in this country, the Ma
ACP leader told DR.. kWame
Nkrumah, Prime Minister OF
Ghana, to whom his message
was addressed.
In extending greeting to the
conference on behalf of the Ma
ACP. Mr.. wilkins expressed re-
gret "that we will be unable to
be represented by an official
observer, but the hearts OF our
membets are with you and with
those who gather to consider the
next steps to freedom for the
peoples of Africa"
Summarizing the status OF
race relations in the United
States today, Mr.. wilkins said
it would be a mistake to think
that Little Rock, bombings and
discrimination present "a true
picture of Americas treatment
of it's Negro citizens. We have
no desire to gloss over or excuse
these practices, but it is accurate,
we believe, to emphasize that
they do not represent either
national policy or the sentiment
of the vast majority of white
Americans"

NEW YORK-A bitter attack
on the work of American mis-

natives the American way of life
as superior to any other.

cuSed Chester BowleS, former
US. Ambassador to India who
was recently elected to the House

WASHINGTON - Arthur S.
Flemming, Secretary of Health,
Education and Welfare, said
Monday that Southern youngs-
ters have missed a million days
of public schooling because of
the "indefensible" closing of their
classes to block integration.
Flemming told a news con-
ference that 3,40O children in
Little Rock, Ark, and Norfolk,
Charlottesville and Front Royal,
Va, still were not getting any
schooling. He said in a prepared
statement that 16,400 students
each have missed between 81 and
So days of public instruction.
The secretary also said it did
not appear that the segregated
private schools set up in Little
Rock to replace the four closed
high schools would qualify for
federal loans under an aid to
education bill passed by the last
Congress.
FORCEFUL STATEMENT
F,emming, in one of the ad-
ministration's most force full
statements on the school dilern-
ma, branded the closings "inde-
fensible." He said the marks they
left on children and communities
were cause for grave concern"
He predicted that citizens
would demand that their class
rooms be reopened to both white
and Negro pupils as the i'll effects
of the closed schools mounted.
