Another African

NEW YORK, Dec. 21-DSN)-
The conservative British Govern
ment Of Prime Minister Winston
Churchill has dethroned another
Negro ruler in Africa for what OBJ
servers see a new effort to support
colonial rule.
The latest victim of British eff
forts to control the course of
events in Africa is the % year old
Kabaka of Baganda Mutesa, who
last week, extended exile in London
with the hapless Seresta Khama of
Beuchunaland and his white wife.
Though the Kabaka was educated
at Cambridge University in Eng
land and under close Colonial office
supervision, the young ruler has
always had a mind of his own. He
S the ruler of Baganda whose mil
lion population in one of the proud
est and richest in Africa. The Bag
anda share the area known as
Uganda with other culturally anC
racially identical peoples in Ben
joro, Ankole and Toro.

100000 Ugandese have prosperet

Silverman accused Lytellton of
authorizing the use of bombs on
Mau Mau, despite the possibility
of women and children being in the
bombed area. He asked: How can
the bomber pilots and crews dis
tinguish between Negro men, wo-
men or children in the forest
areas?
"Will the colonial secretary do
something to prevent the. indis-
criminate policy Of applying the
death penalty to people in pro-
hibited areas who may nave been
abducted there by Mau Maui"
The colonial secretary rejected
the questions on grounds the pilots
were told to drop their bombs on
specific targets.
Lytellton also refused to alter
his orders to soldiers to shoot to
kill.
Earlier in the week Lytellton
had been criticized by members of
the Labor party for his ousting of
the premier and suspension of the
constitution of British Guiana.
However he survived this criti-
cism.
