UN General Assembly
1959

137. A regular item on the agenda of the Assembly is [agenda item 61] the question of race conflict in South Africa resulting from the policies of apartheid of the Government of the Union of South Africa. In the debate on this question we hear now and then new facts which indicate a rigorous continuity in the pursuit of these policies. There are no signs which indicate a softening of the attitude of the Union Government. On the contrary, it seems as if the methods had been further tightened up.
