Solon Declares Fewer Negroes Attending Integrated Schools In North Conyers Blasts Yankee Bias JACKSON, Miss "During these last ' en years of the civil rights revolution, racial segre gation in the South has been decreasing, though much too slowly," declared Congressman John Conyers, Jr. (Democrat- Michigan). "During the same period, however, racial segre gation in the North has in creased. Fewer Negro children are attending integrated schools in -the North than at any time since the 1954 Supreme Court decision outliawing school seg regation," stated Conyers. Conyers was the principal speaker at last night's annual banquet meeting of the Mis sissippi Council on Human Re lations. According to informed sources a speech by a Negro political figure from the North to a State-wide bi-racial meeting has not occuned in Mississippi during at least the last genera tion. "The brother who left home to seek the promised land of milk and honey up North ha? instead often found himself without a job and living in a crowded and fetid ghetto." said Conyers in the previously re leased text of his remarks. "His children go to inferior schools The stores in his neighborhood offer poor quality goods at high prices. Public services are very limited compared to those provided in other parts of the city. He finds that the subtle and devious racial discrimina tion practiced in the North is probably more difficult to fight than the open discrimiation of the South. He learns to his hor ror that no part of America is immune—that virus of racism infects the entire country.'
