...Negroes to choose: to live in harmony with whites, to live among themselves amid decent surroundings-even to exclude whites if they wish. But Young ruled out black apartheid. "We do not intend to do the racists' job for them by accepting segregation," he insisted, "and we plan no one-way trips to Africa." As a result, Young told 1,800 Urban Leaguers gathered in New Orleans for their 58th annual convention, he is launching a new thrust for what he termed Soul or Ghetto Power, increasing sevenfold the organization's spending in the slums, from...
...Another plan comes from Arthur M. Cox, a congressional candidate in New Hampshire, who at various times has pondered the problems of Viet Nam for the State Department, the CIA and the Brookings Institution.
