Heath and his principal lieuten- ants put forward a Commons motion calling for immediate talks with Rhodesia's prime minister, Ian Smith. This motion Prime Minister Wilson is bound to oppose. But it may never come to debate. Poiitical commentators were taking it as certain that Wilson next week will seek dissolution of Parliament in order that a general election can be held March 31. Thus Rhodesia would become an election issue rather than a Commons issue. Th: Conservative reasoning is that the Ghana military coup, lfollowing quickly on the heels of a similar takeover in Nige- ria, has underlined the instabil- ity of youthful African states. Thus they argue that Britain is ill-advised to continue pres- sure aimed at wrecking the Rhodesian regime, which they see as firmly in control and a facter toward stability in South- ern Africa.

The downfall of the president was symbolized when a con- struction gang moved in with a crane to smash up the over-life- size bronze statue of Nkrumah outside the parliament build-| ing. The statue, showing the presi- dent with arm upraised, gazing out over the Gulf of Guinea, was toppled to the ground and broken up. The pieces were given to the crowd and market stallholders walked away bal- ancing large hunks of granite from the base on their heads. A loud explosion at 5 a.m. Thursday, followed by a burst of machine-gun and rifle fire, were the first signs of the coup which ended Nkrumah's nine years in power.
