CHARGES AT
INDIA

JOHANNESBURG, South AZ
rica - (ANP) - South Africa's
prime minister, Daniel F. Nolan,
last week accused India of a
"cruel record of the denial of civ
il rights" to her own racial and
religious minorities.
"The right to life, security,
property, and equality before the
law are, on the testimony of In
dia's minorities, more violated
than honored in India," he charg-
ed.
Answering queries as to what
South Africa would do in re-
CARDS to the passive resistance
campaign by the natives against
the country's race policies if the
UN stepped in Malan said:
"South Africa's position has
been made clear. 1t will not and
cannot tolerate any interference
in its domestic affairs, and it will
disregard and ignore any resolu-
tion taken in violation of the UN
charter"

Government Operations

R. Mccarthy, Wisconsin, whose at
tacks on government have marked

completely in public utility districts,

Charles w. Tobey, New Hampshire,
who favors amending interstate COM

stall, Massachusetts, who has favored
UNIT.

Capehart, Indiana, who opposes eco
nomic controls, and wrote Gripping

lations committee.
District of Columbia - Francis
Case, South Dakota, who favors home
rule and voting rights for citizens
in the District.
