"Canada is being unfriendly to us and is making no at- tempt to understand Rhode- sia's problems," said a govern- ment spokesman. But if the government feels misunderstood, it is not jump- ing at a chance to give its side of the story in person-to- person talks. Repeated re- quests made. through official channels for an interview with ' Prime Minister lan Smith or any member of his cabinet were ignored. Rhodesia abrogated its trade agreement with Canada Dec. .31 but did not inform ! Cameron Miller of Montreal, acting Canadian trade com- missioner here. He found out about it while reading a list of published cabinet orders 11 days later. It was under an edict con- cerning dog tags in Bulawayo, Rhodesia's second city. LOSED HIS OFFICE Miller closed the office Jan. 20 and departed for his next posting in Rome with his beautiful Rhodesian-born wife. It was a surprise to the Cana- jians as well as to the Rhodesi- ns, why the office, Canada's @nily official link with Rhodesia, Shad been kept open so long. There has naturally been no trade-promotion work for Mil- ler since Canada imposed *sanctions on Rhodesia after the government announced its unilateral declaration of * independence Nov. 11. Miller said he was treated with coolness but never with bitterness or discourtesy after Canada joined in the trade embargo. He had received a few crank telephone calls ask- ing why the office was still open and Canada's maple leaf flag flying from it. It takes some paper work just to get to see a junior gov- ernment official in Salisbury. The main government build- ing Jameson Avenue has one or two officers of the khaki-clad security forces pa- trolling the sidewalk outside, where Premier Smith's black Rolls - Royce is parked. A statue of Cecil Rhodes, the English. explorer after whom Rhodesia is named, casts its iron glance on the brownstone corner of the building where Smith has his working quar- ters. The general entrance to the building is a narrow, guarded doorway. To get into the building you have to sign a form saying who you are and the person you are going to see, The uniformed man on duty notes the time én the form, stamps it and initials it. You get a copy and he keeps one. The person you see has to sign the form, otherwise you can't get out of the building. You are led to the appro- priate office by a uniformed African messenger who car- oi number on his shirt. Every official, no matter how junior, seeins to have a secretary. One wonders how | only 224,000 whites can oper- ate the government, armed and security forces and all the business of Rhodesia. Very few Africans are em- ployed in Salisbury stores. The junior official says the whites simply could not ac- cept a timetable for African majority rule. The long-term objective was a_ responsible government run by whites and blacks together. "Why,"' he said, 'look at what happened in The Congo | and now Nigeria--the shining example of African nation. | hood." | Rhodesia didn't want that kind of thing happening here. Besides, race relations in Rhodesia are excellent, he said. False stories were being circulated in Canada and other countries about blood- letting in the streets of Salis- bury Since independence, one Af- rican had been shot to death and there had been few other incidents Crocodiles. killed and ate SIX persons in one-recent week in Rhodesia. This rated a cou- ple of paragraphs in the Salis\| bury newspapers because the victims were Africans. By contrast, there was a 14-para- graph story about some minor thefts from white homes here. SAW MANY CENTURIES Old London Bridge was begun in 1176, took 30 years to build and was storn down and re- placed only early in the 19th 'Rhodesia - is coming in for'a share of | century.
