Atlanta Daily World, who received
a fellowship from the Reid Founda-
ton, a supplement from the South
ern Nieman association and the
US. State Department to study
and travel to Africa returned home
last week after a years stay.
The journalist who met African
leaders including Prime Minister
Kwame Nkrumah of Ghana, Presi-
dent Tubman of Liberia, Mboya of
Kenya, and Banda of Nyasaland,
said he was especially struck by
the non-violent attitude of the
present-day African leaders and
the strong affinity they held for
the us.
Said Gordon: 1--WE should work
to hold this friendship; we should
try to broaden our views and in
terest in this part of the world
while the people still look to us.
Africa is no longer a so-called
dark continent, but an enlightened
continent, emerging with a demo-
cratic point of view and ready
to join the rest of the free world"
Gordon's trip took him to IA
different African countries. He
said the African leaders were es-
pecially interested in the plight of
the American Negro. They con-
stantly asked why American Ne
gro businessmen, technicians and
specialists did not show more in
terest in Africa.
The Gordon family, a wife and
three sons, first went to Europe,
visiting England, Belgium, France
and Switzerland before going to
Africa. On the way home they
stopped in Italy and Scotland.

Picture Treatment In
NJ. Y. G. Texf Books
BY Samuel p. Perry, Jr.

New York, NY CAMP The
nine-member Board of Superin-
tendents of the New York City
Board of Education has formally
urged the school textbook pub
fishers to introduce representa-
ton of non-white individuals in
illustrations in textbooks"
The announcement of the resell
ution was made by DR.. John ].
Theobald, superintendent.
The Board of superintendent
praised the textbook publishing in
dustry for its past efforts in re-
moving incidents of misrepre-
sensations from school textbooks"
The next logical step, concluded
the board, was the realistic ac-
compartment to the text in illus
trations."
The board cited the admission
of Alaska and Hawaii to the I'm
ion, as well as the rise of new
nations in Asia and Africa, was
significant factors for giving "ad-
equate attention to the non-white
people of the world"
However, a spokesman for the
American Textbook Publishers In
stitute, which has 80 member
companies, was somewhat "skep-
teal"
Austin ]. McCaffrey, executive
secretary, explained" that any
decision to alter the content of
books themselves must remain
within the framework of indivi-
dual company policy" He noted
that the Institute would ask men,
Der companies to give Serious
consideration" to the Boards res
olution.
No mention was made of the
writers of the books, whose views
result in either more biased or
more tolerant readers.
The editors of the New York
Herald-Tribune said, Negroes
have taken their place alongside
whites in practically every field
of activity. The aim is merely to
reflect America by reflecting the
facts"
