Before turning to my views as to the problems and issues before us at this Regional Conference, I wish to note a small item in the Summary Report as it refers to the District of Columbia.
That reference in the Report is `` continuation of the trend toward an all-Negro school system '', a remark apparently occasioned by the increase of Negro school population from 74.1 per cent to 76.7 per cent.
I see no real prospects for an all-Negro school population.
West of Rock Creek Park is still monolithically white and is in fact increasingly white as a result of Georgetown's conversion-by-renovation housing program.
Nearby Foggy Bottom is ousting Negroes.
The large acreage in the Southwest Redevelopment area beckons white people -- what with high-priced town houses and elevator apartments.
The Capitol Hill rehabilitation, like Foggy Bottom, replaces Negroes with whites ( but also replaces some whites with other whites ).
