Dawson looked for a calcul-

of each policy by Ghana her
self, with much depending on
the French attitude and the
relative strength Of the parties.
Ghana, he indicated, would have
the weapon of Pan-Africanisn.
France the weapon of closing
the borders to more than a mil
lion migrant laborerS who come
to Ghana to work the food and
cocoa farms, although France
would need to take into account
the tax revenue she might lose
before undertaking any move
to prevent her subjects from
seeking temporary work in Cha
ma.
Also on the economic side,
Davinson cited the need for
bilateral agreement with France
over customs duties and proce-
dures, for if Ghana is to develop
diversified economy, she
should look to wider markets
in the hinterlands. Dawson sug-
geSted that customs duties i'm
posed for European benefit
should not be allowed to ham,

Of protest.
A GOVERNMENT BILL to seq
regate South African churches
and prevent Africans from wor-
shipping in predominantly white
congregations is drawing heavy
fire in the Union. If the Native
Laws Amendment Bill was pas
sed in it's original form, Anglican
Bishops, the Cape Town presby-
terry of the Presbyterian Church,
the Church of the Province Of
South, Africa and the Christian
Council of South Africa all
threatened to disregard it as a
violation of religious freedom.
The Johannesburg city council
is protesting the bill as an in
fringment of freedom of wor-
ship, assembly, speech, access to
courts and rights to sell.
