BY South Africo

Johannesburg. - According To
Reuters News Agency South AZ
rican liberal Alan Patton forecast
Sunday that the Commonwealth
will disintegrate II South Africa
Is allowed to remain a member
after it becomes a republic next
May 81.
Mr.. Patton, whose passport was
seized last Monday when he re-
turned from receiving a freedom
award In the United States, made
the statement In the johannesburg
Sunday Times.
The paper printed the text Of
talk he had intended to broad
cast In reply to an attack on him
over the South African Broadcast
ing Corporation facilities. It &C.
cused him Of disloyalty.
Mr.. Patton, author Of the book,
CRY the Beloved Country" was
refused permission to reply to the
attack over the radio.
He said that the Commonwealth
as "nonracial Tor multi-raciaD
association" dare not contain a
member which practices racial
apartheid (segregation).H
He added that he did mot want
to see the Commonwealth fall
apart" because cit Is a force for
order and peace In a broken world"
A severe critic Of South Africa's
nationalist government, Mr.. Patton
said. II feel no loyalty to the South
African Government. My loyalty is
to my country and its people"
He added, MY country and my
people win never be free until the
government IL utterly destroyed"
MY next passport I hope to
get from q government truly repre-
sentative Of the people Of South
Africa" he said.

those around US a little better.
First, most Of US might try to
be a little kinder. When you get up
in the morning speak kindly to
those you meet. OF course we all,
more or less have our share Of
burdens and worries, but that
should not make us wake up feel
ing the world owes US a living and
give US the right to spoil the day
for those around US.
No matter how you feel speak
kindly to those you meet because
your kind words may lift their
hearts and spirits and cause their
whole day to be brighter. 1t costs
nothing to be kind but oh the joy
it brings to a person who feels
his cross is 50 hard to bear.
A kind word and a pleasant
smile will do wonders to make
someone happy, and you viii feel
happier knowing that you are the
cause Of that happiness.
These are some gems / have

you will, too:

,UOU-1or all It's western aggfeS-
made by our own government, the
most highly developed and most
productive section OF French West
Africa"
On the whole, the English AZ
rican colonies have been unable to
support themselves and France is
reputed to have poured more
money per capita into Africa than
any other colonial power. As a re-
suit most Of the newly born French
African states begin life with an
unfavorable trade balance.
High Living Costs
But not so the Ivory Coast. 1t
sells more than It buys In 1856,
an exceptionally good year, the
value Of exports exceeded the value
Of imports by S45 million. But as
impractical as many other African
states are. it doesn't raise enough
rice to feed itself.
1t boasts q higher per capita
income, equalling or maybe ex-
ceeding Ghana's and Western Nj
geria'S
But the cost Of living is also high
for Europeans and the African
elite composed mostly Of high gov
eminent officials who live on q
grand scale.
A hOuse-hunting American For
eign Service officer told me that a
three bedroom house or apartment
rents for $1,000 per year and If
you are fortunate enough to find
one, you must pay $50 or three
years rent In advance before NOV
ing in your furniture and family.
To build one Of similar size would
cost $4,000 with one-half paid
down before the contractor turns
the first spadeful Of earth.
Apartment buildings are rising
like mushrooms, but the flats were
rented for years in advance before
construction started.
The Africans in Abidjan are re-
puted to be among the best housed
in Africa, enjoying in addition to
masonry constructed homes, run
ming water and electricity.
Women Well GrOOu1ed
But the gap between the bush
the rural area-and the city, al
ways wide, il getting wider as the
urbanized African elite moves to-
ward European culture and COM
fort at a faster pace than their
country brothers can gain on them.
And most Of the Ivory coasters
live in the bush, at least 90 per-
cent of them.
At a formal reception given by
President Boigny for the heads Of
10 African states whom he invited
here to discuss formation Of
French African bloc and other pol
itical problems of common concern,
I saw the best groomed, most sop
histicated African women Of my
tour.
They were carbon copies in ev-
cry respect Of their white Partisan
sisters but with a warmth, grave
and certain sensuality that seems
more pronounced in African wom-
en-.
My earlier observation that cor
settieres and girdle makers had
not discovered Africa does not ap-
ply here. I doubt, since every thing
American is foreign here, that
Nine. Walker or Nine. Malone had
anything to do with it, but the
hair Of the African women was
fashionably styled and their COS
metics were tastefully and tact
fully applied.
Across The Bridge
But go across the Boigny bridge
to Treichville. Here European men
prowl and African girls make full
utilization Of their natural endow-
ment to exist from night to night,
enter into custom marriages that

he once taught French at Minor
teachers college and Morgan col

Lloyd and his associates had the
difficult task Of establishing an
American diplomatic beachhead
here prior to the arrival Of Reams
Robert Borden. the American am
bassador.
A Perfect Choice
A perfect choice for the assign
ment, Lloyd began his diplomatic
career in Liberia, a next door
neighbor, and served three years in
Paris in addition to Budapest and
Karachi
The job America has to do here

an Ivory coast student ever study
ing in America, said he believed
scholarships were available, but
lack Of knowledge Of English
keeps youngsters from qualifying.
He confessed with some embar-
rasment, that he did not feel
that his readers were interested In
news about the American Negro.
The Minister Of Information in ef-
feet made the same admission
when he said he hoped to establish
contact with America and the Ne
groes there
And this situation exists despite
the fact that the United States
is the Ivory Coasts second most
important customer. In 1858 it
purchased Is percent of the Ivory
Coasts total exports including al
most 80 percent Of its cocoa and
Is percent of its coffee.
In dollars and cents, America
bought sos million of produce
from the Ivory Coast which pur-
chased only $3.7 million of goods
from us.
Embarrassed
must confess that I was a.
little irked at not finding anyone
speaking English. I concluded these
people were not bi-lingual as they
are in Haiti and even in Paris
where it is not too difficult to find
a person who can communicate
with an American in his own
tongue.
Then I realized, to my shame,
that I'm not bi-lingual and that
actually the Africans here are,
speaking their native African
tongues in addition to French, a
white mans language-even II
