NEW YORK — Top leaders of

today, told their reaction to
statements reportedly expressed
in this city by a Negro business

of rpce progress on the Negro’s
“lack of initiative, courage, inte

that there is a racial barrier
which keeps him Irom making
progress. Therefore, he asks for

made a historic proposal in re

massive program of remedial
education Utr(ni|ttoUt the nation
in which students who have suf
fered from sub-standacd and dis

given extra years of high-load
remedial teaching to “undo 300
years of damage that have made
schools in some parts of our na-
tloh wholly inadequate.”
Farmer said that “wirming

of inadequate schools, teachers j
and curricula that must be dealt,

Turning to the specifics of tha

close to 1,000,000 primary and I
secondary school students are'l
needful of this kind of program'
immediately. The program, as en
