GREENSBORO—What is happen ing and what has |)appened in the Belgian Congo was compared to what happened when the United States found itself engaged in the Civil War, a native African de clared Sunday at Bennett College. D. Weahplah Wilson, a mem ber of the Liberian mission to the United Nations in New York, speaking on "Africa—A Rising Chalfeng;—end the United Na tions." said that high illiteracy in the Conge pre-determined temporary se'.backs when, inde pendence was suddenly thrust upon the diyicfeid country. Referring to the political awake- ing in Africa, Wilson cited four contributory factors, namely. World War II, India’s independ ence, the steady increase in the number of young Africans coming to the U. S. and En;land to study and the growing feeling on the part of some colonial powers that they could no longer maintain their colonies. "In 15 years," said Wilson, "the Congo produced only five coltege graduates—a ridiculous situation." Wilson credited the UN with playing an important role in the CoBfo, despite critici'sm and '•barg es that the organization i« sible for PaUice LumWBlM*k death. ■‘The*UN troops were sent *• protect Lumumba and his hoiM.
