tolerate country like South Africa within it unless it mends its ways So said Norman Phillips for eign news editor of The Toronto Star at last nights meeting of Barrie Canadian Club in the Lib rary Ball In becoming republic through the recent plebiscite South A1 rlca will have to go through the lormality of rtesubmitting itself as member of the Common wealth Mr Phillips said it was pretty sure bet that count ries like Ghana or India would do the blackhalling but that it would be good for the Common wealth and Canadas internation al prestige if Canada would do it Such public protest against South Africas apartheid policy was mentioned by South African author Allan Paton in Toronto earlier this week While Mr Pat on suggestedthat such action by Canada would be welcomed by native Africans and white libcrlt als be had not formally sug gested it in his Toronto speech IF WE DID IT If we did oust South Africa would the governments racist policies become more extreme questioner asked it couldnt very well get more extreme said Mr Phillips If only as matter of prac tical politics suggested Mr Philv lips South Africa is not worth to Canada what countries like India and Ghana are In addition to citing racist and police state activities the speaklt er asserted that there were many proHitlerites in the South Af rican government notably the foreign minister who was instru mentalrln
