First sentence: Elected in on 5 June 1958 with a five seat majority, and even then only by dint of the newly introduced preference vote, Southern Rhodesia's new Prime Minister, Sir Edgar Whitehead, would seek in 1959 to persuade the British Government to improve the Southern Rhodesia's self-governing status to full sovereignty.
