Hague, but the country's capital
IS Amsterdam =.
tive neutrality, it could not be
friends with those who considered
colored people as inferior beings,
nor could it be friends with those
who considered imperialism. Odin-
ga said it was a strange irony"
for the African people to witness
those who were allies in defeating
Nazi Germany now were ready to
fight over the same Germany.
THE SHOCKING Sabotage Bill
in South Africa, contrary to gen.
eral expectation, South Africans in
their movement for equal rights.
Instead, according to Jorden Ngu-
bane, journalist and political lead
er, said the bill will only sharpen
the temper Of Africans to strive
for those basic human rights which
are the birthright Of every single
soul in the country.
Addressing an estimated ESQ
people In the town hall at Ronde-
bosh, a Cape Town suburb Ngu-
bane said that while the remaining
white supremacists are fleeing
states like Kenys, Tanganyika
and other countries either inde-
pendent or slated for independence
and moving to South Africa, the
last bastion Of race denomination.
He said some whites were leaving
the Rhodesias for South Africa.
Ut might be noted that the racist
South African government has
made an appeal to white settlers
to come to South Africa to swell
the white population.)
NGUBANE DECLARED that It
is absolutely inevitable that with
external and internal pressures
building up, it may happen very
soon that all South Africans win
be compelled to sit at one table
and thrash out their difficulties.
He said that it was extremely
fortunate that even at this stage,
five minutes past twelve, major
political leaders Of the non-whites
had not yet written off entirely
the prospect Of peaceful negotia-
ton.
He added that the African peo-
pie and more particularly the Lib
eral Party would continue their
peaceful, non violent struggle as If
the Sabotage Bill did not exist.
nL-WnL AMONG non-whites
is developing in South Africa as
result Of the activities abroad Of
George Golding, president Of the
Colored Peoples National union, a
mainly pro-South African govern
ment organization. Golding was
sent abroad by the South African
Foundation to sell apartheid (seg-
regation) overseas.
Speaking in London, Golding de-
scribed South Africa as "a Won
derful country for sunshine and
peace and co-existence." Golding,
addressing a meeting held by the
Royal Commonwealth Society and
the Royal African Society, said
that although newspapers foretold
Of a tbloodbath revolution" In
South Africa, a multi-racial union
would not develop with hatred but
in trust, understanding and love.
Golding said that a new idea
was arising between white, colored
and African people in South AZ
rica. He said that new opportun-
tiles were being given and the time
was coming when there must be a
multi-racial union and understand
ing in South Africa.
GOLDING FURTHER stated
that criticisms have given the i'm
preston Of complete suppression Of
non-whites In South Africa. He
said that suppression Of political
rights does exist, but there was no
suppression Of cultural progress
and education Of colored people in
South Africa While both Gold
ing and Ngubane spoke Of the
need for mulh-racial unity In
South Africa, it is interesting to
note the difference In their ap-
proach to the subject. Informed
sources in South Africa note that
Golding Is doing well on his mis-
sion in behalf Of the segregation
ist government but that his I'M
popularity among blacks win be-
come more acute when he returns
to South Africa.
