Accra, Ghana (ANP)—An item which appeared in the Ghana Times of Nov. 14, 1959, seems worthy of reprinting for the edification and consternation of apartheid-obsessed whites in South Africa and their counterparts in the U.S. South: "For some 30 years now, the (African) continent has yielded discovery after discovery . . . which have revolutionized earlier concepts of the remote origins of humanity and which indicate that it may well be that the whole human race had its parentage in Africa—that all of us, Europeans, Americans, Asians, as well as the present population of the (African) continent are the descendants of an African race."
