Ike To Proclaim Week CHICAGO, 111. — President Eis enhower has been asked to pro claim Negro History Week, Fe'oru- ary 8-14, 1959. The request was made by the membership of the Afro-American Heritage Association through its president. Miss Leo F. Sparks. j^'egro Hi;story Week has been observed for thirty-two years, liav- ing been started by the late Car ter G. Woodson in 1926. Never has the week been pro claimed by a President of the United States, although many state governors and city mayors have proclaimed Negro History Week for states or for cities. Miss Sparks sent .1 suggested draft of a proclamation to the I^sident. ^ In the latter requesting the proc lamation, Miss Sparks declared. “We in the AfroTAmerican Heri tage Association feel that such a proclamation is a great opportuni ty for the President of the United Slates to say to Amercaris and to the world that the Chief Executive of the United Stales, and the peo ple thereof, are making forward strides in the matter of proper recognition . of the heritage atid histoi^ of Americans of African de scent- in these United Slates.
