My dear Dr Xuma,I have "been meaning to send you this short

note for some few days past, and regret that it got over- -looked. The news of your wife's death came as a greatsurprise, and I do want you to know how much I sympathise with you in your great loss. . We have ourselvesbeen going through a similar experience in the death of one of our school-boys whom we love very much; I feel therefore all the more able to express to you our heartfelt sympathy.Our prayer is that God may strengthen you on your hold of the certainty of Our Lord's Resurrection, and that you may thereby be comforted. As people pass beyond the veil, and wegrow in years, it makes that land of -f-he beyond grow more fam- -iliar, and deepens our longing to share in it. May Godbless 3,'ou at this time.

Yours very faithfully,

Dr. Alfred Bitini Xuma,49 Toby Street,Sophiatown, Johannesburg, SDear Dr. *uma.

A.

Since I happened to be writing Bishop Simms,I thought I would drop you a line also, especial­ly since I just finished chatting with Jesse Gib­son. He is well and just recovering his new Chrysler which was stolen and stripped of acces­sories. It was covered by insurance so he is none the worse off other than for inconvenience.

We had a story the other day about Mr. In- sull and his benefactions, but I could not place my fingers on the details of your educational ex­periences at the moment and so did not include you. He has fallen on evil days for v*i ich we are all sorry.

Tell us something of your experiences some­time and we will make a story from it.

It might not be a bad idea for you to send us a cut and fifty mats, or to have us make them over herefor you. The cost here would be about four pounds.

Such a story syndicated, telling of your life and career and what you are accomplishing in South Africa, should truly be inspirational.

I was down at Tuskegee for Founder’s Day.You may know that I have been elected to the Trustee board. It is marvelous there now.Three or four great new buildings over on the old parade ground and new landscaping makes it

beautiful indeed.Perhaps sometime you may wish to make them

some gift of African objects, or even a dona­tion. If so, I would be proud to have it ccxne through me. I know it would arouse intense in­terest among the students and officials from Dr. Moton on down to know that a former student from so far away remembered them.

With every good wish, I remain,

Dear Doctor Xuma:I hope you are well. This leaves us doing

very nicely. Careve is much improved.I received your letter at Bloemfontein and was

very anxious to come to Johannesburg at ihat time but it was absolutely impossible. My own personal affairs as well as official interests demanded my immediate return to Cape Town. However, I will be soon coming to Johannesburg.

I plan to have a session of the Trustee Board Monday evening, ^une 11th at the Bantu Social Center. Kindly secure the Center for that purpose for me.

Please get ready all the things which you de­sire to come before the Trustee Board. W shall want, of course, a report from the Committee which supervised the repairing of the buildings at Wilberforce and a report from the Teacher1s Committee. I hope to be in Johannesburg June 5th. Sister joins me in love to you.

¥ours faithfully,

NSW EDUCATIONAL FELLOWSHIP CONFERENCE 33/34.

African Education Section at

J ohannesburgP.O. Box 1176,

JOHANNESBURG. May

Dear1. Programme. I am glad to be able to send

you the full programme of the Conference meetings at Johannes­burg. Although it is subject to alteration the programme may be regarded as official, having been arranged by the Conference organisers.

You will notice that I have arranged for the African Education Section to commence on Monday, July 16th, while the other sections do not start until the next day. As the Conference has been advertised to commence on July 16th, members will be in Johannesburg on that day.

You will also see that in certain instances it has been arranged that the African Education Section will not be in session, to enable the members to hear addresses in other sections likely to be of special interest to workers in Native education.

The programme is a full one, but it is hoped by efficient organisation to secure adequate consideration for all the topics to be presented.

3. Papers. I shall be very grateful for your help in the following ways:-(a) Synopsis. Will you please send me at once a synopsis of

your paper so that I may have copies made for circulation ejnong those attending the section. This will make it ea,sier for the audience to follow your argument and helpin discussion. As there are to be over forty papers in this section alone at Johannesburg, and as I leave Johannesburg for the Cape on June 33rd and shall not return before July ISth, I am anxious to have the copying done before I leave Johannesburg.

(b) Time. You will be allowed twenty minutes for the reading of, or speaking to, your paper. If your paper is longer^ than this will you please mark those passages that need not be read out, or if you propose to speak instead of reading, will you please make sure that you get the essential points made in the time allowed. I must count on your co-operation in this matter for I know that the time given is not liberal. I think however you will find that the more crisp the presentation, the better will the following discussion be. As most of those who will be attending the section will h-ive been directly engaged in Native education, you can assume considerable previous knowledge of the topics. The Conference aims at a greater appreciation of the factors operating to create

- problems -

problems in Native education and a wider vision of the possibilities of the adjustment of Africans to modern conditions. Too great attention to details should therefore be avoided and thought directed to new and helpful suggestions.

(c) Publication. It is likely that all the papers and the essential points in the discussions will be published in the printed report of the Conference. Your paper should therefore be in a form suitable for publication and handed to me at the close of the discussion upon it. May I ask that,(i) Your paper be neatly typed (double spacing) or

legibly written on one side only of the paper;(ii) that it bear on it your name (with your degree -

if any) and the correct designation of the post you occupy; and

(iii) if at all possible, two copies of your paper should be handed in.

As Editor of the African Education section of the Conference Report, I shall greatly appreciate your co-operation in these directions.

(d) Discussion. I am arranging for one or two of the overseas speakers to open the discussion after the reading of the papers on certain topics. Will you please let me know the topics on which you would like to be called upon to speak in the discussion. It is likely that lists willbe kept of persons wishing to speak in the discussions so that they may be called upon first and without delay. Should there be a general desire to continue any discussion beyond the time allotted, a special session will be arranged during an afternoon period.

(e) Chairman of Section. On the urgent request of the Conference organisers, I have agreed to act as Chairman of the African Education section, both at Cape Town andJohannesburg. I have undertaken this onerous task in the belief that you and others will readily co-opetate in the smooth working of the section.

(f) Secretary of the Section. Mr. A.L. Saffery, B .A. of the staff of the South African Institute of Race Relations,has agreed to act as Secretary of the section in Johannesburg and the secretarial work of the section will be conducted in the offices of the Institute which are located at Room 4, Eastern Basement, Central Block, University Buildings,Milner Park, Johannesburg (Telephone 44-3781).

(g) Accommodation. Please communicate with Mr. Saffery or myself if you are in any doubt or difficulty regardingyour accommodation arrangements for the Johannesburg meeting.
