There even are extremists advocating par- tition of British Guiana along racial lines Yet, there are plenty of ex-/ ceptions to the general pattern. Many Africans are attracted to Dr. Jagan's party by its leftist ideology. Conversely, its red- dish tint has propelled many Indians, especially those in business, into the opposition congress or the United Force, a party led by Portuguese busi- nessman Peter D'Aguiar which says it is trying to appeal to every section of the community and is strongly opposed to com- munism.
