both at the UN and in general, as
a means of demonstrating the de-
sire of three-fourth of the indie
pendent African community to
strive for unification.
Though not specifically naming
Nkrumah, the Monrovia conferees
took a crack at his proposed ex-
pansion program of some African
nations at the expense of their
neighbors. The conferees denounced

tails the surrender of the severe

Ghana is linked with Mali and
Guinea into a group which, while
not yet ratified by their respective
legislatures, is designed to serve as
a tight union of states of Africa.
Such a plan has met with open
opposition from Liberia, Nigeria
and Sierra Leone.
In addition, Togo and the
Ivory Coast are opposed to
Nkrumah's expansion program.
The Ghana group of three has
also linked itself with the UAR,
Algerian nationaHsts and Morocco
in what has been designated the
Casablanca group.
This union proposes to hold its
first point high command meeting
in Cairo on July Is, with an econ
omic committee meeting on the
same day in Conakry. None of the
five in this group attended the
Monrovia meet, though Guinea's
Sekou Toure had earlier indicated
an acceptance.
However, at the time the con-
ference was scheduled, Toure en-
planed for Cairo for a conference
with President Nasser.

Throughout the high level con-
ference, the African leaders dis
played a strong atmosphere of I'M
ity. From start to finish, the con-
ference dovetailed nicely with the
tenor Of President William v. s.
Humans opening day address of
welcome.
Tubman, elected chairman Of
the conference by reclamation
upon nomination by Sir Milton
MargaI, prime minister Of the
newly independent Sierra Leone,
had told his fellow African lead
ers that their purpose in meet
ing was to seek to build a new
Africa and world order"
The necessity for better coop
GRAFTON among Africans is obvious,
but any form Of unity must be
voluntary" he said, in calling upon
the conference to study the decis-
ions Of previous meetings OF AZ
rican states, including the Casab-
lanca confab.
The general aims have not been
entirely contradictory, nor are
they completely inimical to the
basic detectives we are now trying
to pursue.
African states should strive to
strengthen independence of all
states, regardless of their align
ment," Tubman declared in ex-
pressing the hope that agreement
could be reached on proposals for
economic cooperation and estab-
lishment Of common identities.
What this conference intends
to do is to bring all African lead
ers to reason together toward de-
termining a concensus in the in
terest of peace and better under
/ standing and to endeavor to pro-
vide a climate in which large, as
well as small states will partici-
pate as equal partners in building
a new Africa and a new world
order"
Replying to the Presidents
welcome address were Sierra
LeOne's prime minister for the
English speaking nations; and
President Leopold Sedar Seng-
hOr Of Senegal for the French
speaking countries.
The assembled leaders agreed to
give answering loyalty to the I'm
tied Nations. The sole reservation
made was that they would not hes,
itate to criticize the UN should II
fail to act in the best interests of
African states.
1t was unanimously agreed that

The conferees also voted to
launch a program aimed at the
creation of an association of SOW
ereign states" designed to foster
the fullest measure Of cooperation
and understanding between the
various independent countries.
The proposed association" would
be in marked contrast to the dis
sident Casablanca group (Ghana,
Mali, Guinea, JAR and Morocco)
which is fostering the idea Of a
politically united United States Of
Africa"
The principle of association was
forecast prior to the Monrovia
meet by Felix Houphuouet-Boigny,
president of the Ivory Coast and
strongman Of the Council of Un-
derstanding in independent French
West Africa. In Paris, the Ivory
Coast leader said:
No United States At This Time
The creation of a United States
of Africa cannot be a question for
today Today's task is to secure
cooperation between African states
based upon respect for each ma
tionality."
To implement the Association"
the conferees decided to set up a
/ committee of experts which will
meet in Dakar, Senegal within
three months, to fashion the frame
work for a final pact to be APP
proved by the countries participat-
ing The committee will make its
report at a subsequent meeting of
the chiefs of states, to be held in
Lagos. Though no date has been
set, it is expected that the next
meeting will see the formal es-
Establishment of the association.
