High School Journalists Receive
SSPA Awards For 'Excellence'
London Professor
Discuses Press
Speaking from a theme “Afri
can Development”, Princeton.
King, professor from the Uni
versity of London, addressed!
students and faculty members ini
a recent Upperclassmen’s As
sembly.
“Despite the Wealth of Africa,
poverty pervails,” Mr. Kingj
commenced. Africa, which)
covers one-fifth of the earth’s
surface and maintains the
world’s most powerful water
supply, in reference to electri
city, may decide its problems
into two areas - humane condi
tions and institutional handi
caps. These problems form a
cycle, according to King’s analy
sis, making each factor a con-
tributive agent of the other.
King answered the problem
of what can be done: “Africa’s
hopes are invested in her ability
to ‘pick herself up by her own
boot straps’.” He continued,
“Political independence is the
starting point of independence.”
At the end o.£ the program a
question and answer period was
held.
Mr. King, who at 24 is a can
didate for >±he doctorate degree,
spoke to some of the classes in
the Social Science Department.
Princeton King, a student un
der the Fisk University accele
rated program, is a native of
Albany, Ga. He is a graduate of
Fisk University, Tenn., and later
attended London University as
a part of the student exchange
program. He received the Mas-
ter’s degree in Political Science
*^irom London.
Mr. King, who converses
easily in many foreign langu
ages, gave his views of the
Congo situation from London,
and the United States. Said he,
“the picture which is conveyed
to the American public is
necessarily slanted because of
the position which our U.S. Go
vernment has taken in relation
to the Congo.”
“The U.S. sided with Belgium
m this situation making the late
Premier Lumumba an enemy'
and, according to our concepts,
a communist.” “Kasavubu , said
he, “whom the government
recognizes as the official head of
the Congo, represents the Bel-
gian-favoreti Congolese leader.
King said in conclusion that
his interpretation of the Congo
events in the Western press
tends to see those elements as
unfavorable to those favoring
Congolese unity.
