Ghana Population
Nearly SO Pct.
Native Africans

Ghana, the African homeland
of Michael Badu, well known
Bluffton college student, is the
subject of an article in a recent
issue of Focus, a publication of
the American Geographical soci-
ETY..
The magazine states that a
major asset of the new nation is
its population. More than SO per
cent of the 100000 inhabitants
are Africans and consequently
there is no race problem, the
publication observes.
The population is fairly well
educated. Ghana has one of the
highest adult Iteracy rates and
probably the highest ratio of
schooled children in Africa. Many
of its leaders received part of
their training in foreign institu-
tons.
The country is not thickly set
tied. Hence there is considerable
room for growth.
Density of population seldom
exceeds 40 to the square mile
except in a few congested spots
in the extreme southern part of
the country. There are many
areas in the central third of the
country where the population
rarely exceeds Is and in some
instances less than five to the
square mile. Taking the nation
as a whole, density is under so
persons to the square mile. This
is only a little more than half
what it is in Nigeria.

GUNFIRE HALTS
THEFT SUSPECT

A short chase punctuated by
gunf1re netted police an auto
theft suspect early today.
Pvt. Charles H. Rails was
cruising near Seventeenth and
@ streets NV. when he spotted
a car, reported stolen from the
$500 block of Thirteenth street
NV, going the wrong way on
@ street.
He chased the car to the 1900
block of Riggs place NV,
where its two passengers aban-
doned it and fed on foot with
Pvt. Rails in pursuit.
When the policeman saw he
was being outdistanced, he
fired two warning shots. One
of the men bolted and the other
dived head first into a hedge.
After being flushed from
cover, the second was identified
as Philip E. Long, 18, of the
$500 block of Eighth street NV.
He was charged with unauthor-
lied use of an auto. =
