WHITE RHODESIAN: MORE LIBERAL ° FAY Sake Ls MOST REACTIONARY 'Why, Africans Use The Same Lavatory.. By DAVE McINTOSH SALISBURY (CP) -- The capital of Rhodesia is a hand- some 75-year-oll city of about $25,000, weil iaid out with wide, clean streets and modern buildings and pretty parks of umbrella cabbage and wait-a-bit trees. The main white area js fiortheast of the city proper, the industrial area southwest. This has created more of a hardship of gasoline ration- ing, imposed as a result of oil embargoes that followed Rhodesia's unilateral declara- tion of independence. sion of comfort and wealth for the whites. The Africans live well out of town in allocated areas and they provide the cheap' labor by which the white man has built an eco- nomic fortress in central Af- frica and where he is guard- ing the ramparts of his priv- ' ilege. Why, Africans use the same lavatory as I do," an office worker in the main govern- ment building said with some pride. But on downtown Baker Avenue a_sign over a public lavatory says 'Europeans only." And in the Rhodes cinema a similar notice pro- claims: 'Gentlemen all races; Europeans only downstairs," COMPARE TWO COUNTRIES Still there is little or none of the apartheid, or racial separation, as practised in South Africa. "Oh, it's really different up here," said a white , visitor from Johannesburg, "In South Africa, if a white man is in- jured in a car accident you call a certain number for an ambulance, If it's a black man who is hurt you call a different number.

It showed a fierce-looking police dog being held by a fiercer-looking white police- man supposedly protecting three elderly (white) women. The two together--man and dog--form a formilable com- bination against crime, says the ad. The Rhodesian found it easy to read "black African" for "crime." decry South Africa's racial policy, they don't--at least publicly-- mention any time at which the African here might ex- pect to obtain majority rule, although occasionally a vague reference to 30 years is heard, There are 4,080,000 Africans and 224,000 whites in Rho- desia, The Rhodesians are fond of telling visitors that Af- ircans have had .the vote here since 1923, This is true but they glide over the fact that the franchise has education and income qualifications at- have the required educa- tion or eat the required in- come (about $1,000 a year) to vote. Food ome : Fifteen of the 65 seats in the legislature are set aside for Africans. Even Rhodesians strongly opposed to lan Smith's rebel government say the blacks are incapable of taking over the government now or for years. A few concede this is because no African holds any kind of responsible position in the government or public service. -The fact is that Rhodesia is run by whites for whites, and the whites believe this is THE OSHAWA TIMES, Seturday, Jenuary 22, 1966 7 because they made the coun- try rich by thelr osvn. sweat as well as by the use of cheap black labor. As a Kenya settler said the other day during a visit here: "Something has to give even- tually and the Rhodesian Eu- ropeans must accept African majority rule as we did in Kenya, happily as it turned out," But the Rhodesian's attitude is not today, not tomorrow, maybe some day, And he hopes some day will never come, The Africans themselves aren't militant but there is hostility in their eves. Joshua Nkomo, leader of the Zjmba- bwe (the African's name for Rhodesia) African People's Union, is in Gonakudzingwa detention camp, Some whites prefer to try the impossible and ignore the blacks. For example, a Cana- dian asked a Rhodesian what the population of Salisbury is. 'About 75,000," he replied, The Canadian expressed amazement that such a large city would have so few people.
