LONDON - (ANP) -- A Fed
Grafton of Central Africa moved
one step nearer reality last week
as the British announced a final
blueprint of plans for the pro-
posed new state.
Colonial Secretary Oliver Lyt-
telton denied a dozen chieftans
from NyaSaiand an appearance
to plead their objections 10 the
new state before Queen Elizabeth.
Under The new plan which
the natives of the three nations
to be united, Nyasaland, Northern
RhodeSia and Southern Rhodesia
oppose - these factors stand out:
/. Africans will not have the
right to vote. Only Whites will
vote, and representation in the
unified parliament will be based
upon White population.
2. Representation will be based
on the white population of the
areas, not the Negro.
3. A permanent committee of
one African and one European
from each nation will approve all
bills affecting Africans before
they can become law.
4. White leaders of Southern
Rhodesia approve the plan.
S. Natives still do not like the
plan because they feel the action
is another ruSe to give whites
more rights in these territories
and give the natives fewer.
On the question of casting bal
lots, natives are to eventually
earn the right to vote with the
literate Africans (who can speak
English and have responsible"
jobs) becoming eligible first. This
will be the policy although the
new Federation will have a pop
ulation of 100000 Africans to
only 100000 whites.
Under this setup the parliament
will consist OF, II members from
Southern Rhodesia, ii from Nor
thern Rhodesia and z from Ny
ashland, giving the two northern
areas only one vote more than
the jimcrow land OF Southern
RhodeSia.
To safeguard the African in
terests, the new plan offers a So
called special six-member COM
mittee to approve all legislation
concerning with natives. Also,
nine members of the parliament
are supposed to be elected to rep
resent African interests. OF this
nine, six are to be Africans. This
means there will likely be only
six Africans representing $780,
900 natives to 20 whites with rs
representing the interests OF
100000 whites.
Southern Rhodesia, whose pol
cies are similar to those Of the
Union of South Africa, approves
of the plan. This nation originally
opposed the Federation because
it feared that Africans would get
too many rights. 1t favored union
with South Africa.
Native Africans still object to
the union, but they have not
been allowed an audience TO air
their grievances. They boycotted
the federation talks held In Lon
don.
It is believed that the name Of
the new Federation will become
Rhodesia officially. At present
Southern RhodeSia Is a Semi-in-
dependent state with Great Brit
ain having control over only its
foreign affairs Northern Rhodes
la and Nyasaland are colonies.
Each of the three states will re-
tain its own form Of local gov
eminent for 10 years, then Great
Britain will consider changes.
The area has exports Of $40O, 000,-
900 a year, chiefly to the United
States, and imports of $350,000,-
O00 mainly from Great Britain.
