where 10 million blacks live

The Pan-Africanist Congress.
a militant offshoot of the domi-
nant Negro African National
Congress, sponsored the anti
pass campaigns. 1t had called
for passive resistance, urging
Negroes to leave their passes

The head of the Pan-African-

Sobukwe, resigned his post as
a language instructor at the

Mr.. Verwoerd, termed the re-
quest for a commission a politi-
cal move, but said he would
consider it. He defended the
police for firing on the Negro
demonstrators and said the
riots had nothing to do with
apartheid but were a reflection
of the independence movement
sweeping Africa now. He ac-
cused the native leaders of try
ing to organize a revolt.
The Anglican bishop of Jo-
hannesburg, the Rt. Rev. AM
brose Reeves. called for a jul

pected police used dumdum

JOHANNESBURG. South
Africa, Mar. % (AP). - Vio-
lenee appeared on the wane
today in riot-bloodied South
Africa, but militant Negroes
turned to the strike weapon
In their campaign against the
passes they must carry.
More and more Negroes were
expected to stay away from
their jobs, particularly in Cape
Town and near Vereeniging,
the coal and steel center south
of johannesburg. Nonwhite
townships in those areas were
the scene of the riots Monday
and Tuesday in which police
gunf1re killed at least 70 Ne
groes and wounded 182 or
more.
Some newspapers put the
total dead at nearer 90.
Thousands of police backed
by armored cars today enforced
q tense truce in most areas.
U. S. Denounces Regime
The use of police bullets to
quell the Negro violence set
on a worldwide wave of
criticism of South Africa'S
white government by angry
liberals. The foreign reaction
included an extraordinary Off
cial denunciation by the United
States State Department. Mos
COW promised the Africans
vigorous" support.
Aroused political opponents
Of Prime Minister Hendryk
Verwoerd demanded a thor
ough investigation of the vio-
lence and an end to South
Africa's drift to disaster.
Mr.. Verwoerd, whose National
ist Party has intensified the
nations race policies, said he
would consider naming a COM
mission to study the crisis.
There was no immediate re-
action from the South African
government to the Washington
denunciation. The latter said
the United States "deplores
violence in all its forms and
hopes that the African people
Of South Africa will be able to
obtain redress for legitimate
grievances by peaceful means.
The State Department ad-
mitted its expression was an
unusual intervention in the
domestic affairs of a friendly
country.

Thousands of Negro laborers
stayed at home yesterday in
Cape Town and Vereeniging,

Several factors are involved

will have to be in California
and he will lose contacts with
local Republicans in other
areas.
II he should run and be
defeated, either in the primary
or the general election, his

II he ran, Democrats would
be certain to say he was seek
ing the governship as q step
ping stone to another presiden-
tial race. He would be ques-
toned repeatedly as to whether
he intended to serve out q
four-year term in the State.
On the other hand, there are
some who believe Mr.. Nixon
could become the forgotten
man by 1854 II Gov. Rocke-
feller is reelected in New York

These strategists argue that,
Mr.. Nixon will need o position

LEoPOLDvILLE, the Congo,
Dec. ~ (AP).-The rebel re-
gime In Stanleyville sent troop
reinforcements into neighhor-
ing Kivu Province today to
tighten It's hold on one Of the
Congo's. richest food-produc-
ing areas.
A United Nations spokesman
said the pro-Communist re-
gime Of former Vice Premier
Antoine GizenSa appeared to
have Kivu Province under its
control after the kidnapping Of
Provincial President Jean Mi
rohu and three. ministers Of
the provincial government.
Mr.. Mirohu was long con-
sidered q supporter Of ex-
Premier Patrice Lumumba, but
was only lukewarm in his sup
port for Mr.. Gizenga.
Declared Self Premier
Mr.. Gizenga declared him
self premier Of the Congo after
Mr.. Lumumba'S arrest and
named Stanleyville as the new
national capital.
The pro-Western regime Of
Col. Joseph Mobutu has de-
cided to try to starve out the
Stanleyville rebels with an
economic blockade to avoid
unnecessary bloodshed.
It was possible that Mr..
Gizenga would try to win Mr..
Mirohu and his ministers firmly
to the Stanleyville cause and
then permit them to return to
Kivu's capital. Bukavu. Kivu
is q southern neighbor Of
Oriental Province. Of which
Stanleyville is the capital.
A convoy Of so rebel police,
who kidnapped the group in
Bukavu Christmas Eve, was
belived still en- route to STAN
leyville, q distance Of 400 miles
over rough jungle roads.
Soviet Gable Intercepted
Mr.. Cizenga's control Of Kivu
Province would give him virtu-
ally unlimited food resources
and would sharply reduce the
effectiveness Of Col. Modulus
blockade.
In Stanleyville. Gen. Victor
Lundula. former army chief
under Mr.. Lumumba, declared
himself commander in chief
Of the entire Congolese Ma
tional Army-including that
part loyal to Col. Mobutu. The
announcement was expected to
have no effect on Mobutu fol-
lowers in the army.
A 250-word cable In Russian
addressed to Mr.. Gizenga by
Soviet Premier Khrushchev
was intercepted by Col. Mobu-
tu'S military cenSorS in Leo
poldville and was withheld. It's
contents were not disclosed.
