constitutionwl the iederallon is under review by the British government The Congress in political or ganisation promoting the rights oi colored people in South Airlca and the colonial territories of the African continent is more voci lerous today in its demands for the dissolution oi the federation and sell government for North amRhodesia and Nyasaland than at any time since the federation was maid in 1953 At the same time it seldom has been more divided internally The congress movement prob ably is strongest in Nyasaland where for the last six months leadership has been in the bands of Dr Hastings Bands who has returned to his own colmtry alter an absence in Britain and Ghana 01 about so years Bands returned to Nyassland at the invitation oi the congress preaching modera tion and non violence hr the struggle for independence for the protectorate RECENT CHANGE He lrequentiy stressed that he had spent most of his lite among Europeans had many European friends and that there would be
