leaders are well aware of Gui¬

Wants Freedom for Africans
What makes Toure and his
so important in Inter¬
national politics?
First of all, there is great ag¬
itation throughout black Africa
for independence from colonial
rule, and Toure is one of the
men working feverishly for (*he
rapid emancipation for the
dark continent. ,Ile and Prime
Minister ICwame Nkrumah of
have ambitions of forg¬
ing a storng confederation of
African states.
Freedom and the economic
development of his country are
Toure's prime concerns at pre-
rent. He is not interested in
the political tug-of-war between
the Common t East and Xie
Democratic West. In "fart, he
has proclaimed himself a "con¬
vinced neutralist,”
Secondly, Guinea Is drategi-
cally and geographically im¬
portant. With the prospect that
Guinea, Ghana and the Cam-
croons, Nigeria, Togoland
(When they achieve independ-
cnee in 1960) njay unite in
tom,her the vanguard of a
drive to link the Wed African
Atlantic coast, from the Sahara
to the southernmost tip of the
whole African continent, the
U.S. wants to got Guinea in the
western camp. The U.S., it, is
believed, even left the door
open for economic aid.
Toure wants aid for his
country — economically and
technically. However, lie is not
begging for it. Following his
talks with the President in
Washington, he declared:
“We prefer liberty to charity.”
He added that the main pur¬
pose of his visit is to convince
the U. S. to support the drive
for African freedom.
The eyes of Africa arc on the
United States, he warned, add¬
ing . . "we would like the
.
United States to stop condi¬
tioning its African ixilicy in
terms of French policy, a
PAGE THE El
already condemned throughout
Africa.”
Last Sept. 28, 1958, when 12
other French colonies voted to
accept Gen. Charles de Gaulle's
new constitution and elected to
remain in the French common¬
wealth, Toure led his 2.5 mil-
| Hon countrymen out of the
French government to inde¬
pendence. He did so, despite the
fact that France threatened
I and did cut off economic aid
to Guinea.
On his tour President Toure
visited New York, including
Harlem, and Wheeling, W. Va.

crowd gave the visitors a stan¬

It was here that President
Spaulding officially welcomed
President Toure and The Hon¬
orable E. J. Evans, Mayor of
the City of Durham, presented
President Toure with a “Key to
the City.” He was also presen¬
ted a “Hands Across the Sea”

to President Toure, a corsage
of roses, with Mrs. E. C. Turner,
treasurer, doing the honors.
President Toure responded
most graciously, stating that
he was “struck" by the siz#
and saope of Negro organiza¬
tions, “especially the insurance
company.”
