tutional conference was opened.
The Sultan Of Zanzibar, Seyyid
Sir Abdulla Bin Khalifa, and the
British president in Zanzibar, Sir
George Mooring, went to London
while the Kenya conference dis
cussed the Kenya Coastal strip.
While they did not attend the
talks themselves, they are con-
cerned about the outcome. Before
the Kenya conference are recon-
mendations that the strip, nomin-
ally under the Sultan's sovereign
ty, should be transferred to Ken
va before Kenya's independence
in return for certain financial con-
siderations.
A further provision Is that the
Kenya government after independ-
ence should retain the normal link
with Zanzibar and, if not, pay
ment should be made to the Sui
tan. Ali Muhsin, minister of edu-
cation and leader of the Zanzibar
Nationalist Party, said: THE
principle Of our independence has
already been agreed. What we
have now to decide will be its
timing and its mechanics"
THERE WE'RE recent echoes
of trouble brewing again between
the Independent African states of
Senegal and Mali, former partners
in the Mali Federation which dis
solved as a result of political
among other difficulties.
Senegal, in a recent charge, said
that plotters in neighboring Mali
had set up a spy network and
were training agents to lead a
violent overthrow of the Senegal
lese government. Information Min
lister Obeye Dip also charged that
there was STRONG reason to be-
lieve" that Morocco, hitherto re-
garded as one of SenegaPs friends,
was involved.
DISPUTES SUCH as those ex-
isting between Senegal and Mali,
like the continued differences be-
tween Ghana and Togo and the
Ethiopia-Somalia boundary hassle,
are viewed with regret by observ-
ers friendly to all of Africa. It Is
hoped that in time these differ
ences can be resolved peacefully.
Mutual respect and cooperation
on the part of the various African
states is, in this writer's view,
mandatory.
Certainly, the once-oppressed
should not become the oppressor.
AMP observers at both the Mon
rovia and Lagos conferences have
witnessed the need for continued
efforts toward a practical and
realistic form of African unity in
all areas. The fact that such unity
has not been fully achieved on
other continents should not serve
as a deterrent to African efforts
along this line. The common bond

even being thrown away in an
attempt to keep prices up for the
farmers.
These deplorable situations and
their relationship were repeatedly
recently in Contact, South AZ
rica's Non-Racial Fortnightly." A
recent public health survey by
Contact reveals that African chill
dren, as compared with whites,
coloreds (persons Of mixed blood)
and Asians, are dying at a much
higher rate.
FOR EXAMPLE, infantile NOR
tality in Cape Town during 1860
indicated that for every 1000 live
births, the following numbers Of
infants under the age of one died:
African, 1913; White, 25.3; COL
ored, 74.4; Asian, 3S.5. Total
deaths of children aged o to
years in johannesburg caused by
gastro-enteritis and kwashiorkor,
by race in 1860 were: African,
500; white, 13; colored, 50; Asian,
7. But, the white and African
populations Of johannesburg be-
ing approximately equal, the rate
among Africans is thus sixty to
seventy times as heavy as it is
among whites, Contact reports.
FULL RECORDS of births and
deaths Of Africans are not kept,
but local health authorities do
keep records Of deaths. These
fragmentary records point to the
serious infantile mortality rate
among Africans, especially as a
result Of gastro-enteritis, the
summer "dysentery" often called
apricot sickness"
Contact says South Africa is
perhaps alone among industrial
lied countries in its practice of
not publishing vital statistics for
the whole population. The Union
Yearbook has for many years pub
lished birth and death rates, and
other vital statistics for the white,
colored and Indian population. But
it has never yet published statis-
tics for the Africans.
MOST HIT by malnutrition are
those Africans living in the once
self-supporting reserves. Contact
comments: There are similar un-
derlying causes of both the food
surplus and the high level of mall
nutrition and diesease among nom
white South Africans.
The chief Of these is poverty in
which the majority Of South AZ
ricans live: they cannot afford to
buy butter, milk or great guam
titles of maize. Pressure for a
high price Of food is maintained
by the farmers who have great
influence on the government, larg-
ely elected by farmers votes"
