The Country Girl, revival of Clifford Odets' play with Jen- nifer Jones, Tone and Torn; iat City Center, Sept. 29, begin- Image Of Prosperous City For Salisbury Cracking By JAMES BROWN SALISBURY | (Reuters)--Sal- isbury, bustling, prosperous capital of Rhodesia, is trying to promote .the image of a coun- try which has successfully shrugged off nine months of se- vere economic sanctions. But like all images, there 'is something artificial about it. The veneer of prosperity and free - spending confidence for the white-ruled country is be- ginning to show cracks. After Prime Minister Ian Smith's government made a unilateral declaration of inde- pendence from Britain last No- vember, the British government impose economic sanctions on the breakaway regime. But, osteneibly, life goes on much the same each day for the majority of Rhodesia's 230,- 000 whites, among whom un- employment has been kept at a low level. A few thousand ur- ban Negroes have been laid off due to the effects of sanctions but most of the country's 4,000,- 00@ indigenous population living in rural areas have not been af- fected. Business and pleasure traffic is back to a high level, despite the British government's oil embargo on Rhodesia." NIGHT SPOTS THROB Nightclubs. in the capital throb to the beat of jazz groups and. shows from. neighboring Mozambique and South Africa. Expensive restaurants are packed with well - dressed whites.' Bars in the city remain well - filled morning and eve- ning, despite two heavy in- ereases in liquor prices. Sunday nights the nightclubs are taken over by hundreds of white teen-agers who can still find the coupons and cash for rationed and expensive gaso- line to drive to their "Holly- wood a gogo "'sessions in sports cars. The government's recent budget, which did not increase the income tax as was ex- pected, was a morale-booster. Informal financial observ- ers here described it as an ef- ficient "holding operation" based on the gamble that sanc- tions will end before the end of the year. As is the case with most pep- pills, the after-effects are likely to be bad--if current Anglo- Rhodesian exploratory talks break down and sanctions con- tinue. To a certain extent the budget reflected the healthy economy which. Rhodesia enjoyed before self-proclaimed independence. IMPACT MAY SNOWBALL But in some circles here it is believed this margin has been stretched to its limit and the real impact of. sanctions will snowball within a few months. They would not. be surprised to see the introduction of an in- terim budget containing dras- tic financial .measures about Christmas time if there is no settlement of the independence crisis within a month or two. In the absence of any statis- tics, no. one, apart from: Smith and his top cabinet and eco- nomic advisers, knows just how healthy. or hard-hit the. econ- omy is at present. Much will depend on the out- come of tobacco auctions which are due to end next month, after months of security screen ed sales. Stores and supermarkets gen- erally remain well-stocked with a wide range of essential and luxury foodstuffs. Most im- ported items; which became scarce earlier this year, have either reappeared on the shelves or been replaced with brands made locally or in South Africa.

By HAROLD MORRISON Canadian Press Staff Writer -Fariv stages of the prime ministers' conference in Lon- don have produced no easy so- lution to the CommonwealthS current crisis, the threat of a walkout by Zambia, Sierra Le- one and some of their neighbors in Africa. "If a walkout from this 23- country club does start, there may be no terminating point short of a breakup. Asian mem- bers ave unlikely to ignore the decisions of Africa. Since the clash involves a ra- cial split, the club that to many has been the great symbol of multi-racial equality and just- ice may end as a tattered, iso- lated. and useless outpost of white man's policy. URGES FORCE The continued rule by white supremacists in Rhodesia has become repugnant to most of black Africa. Zambia wants fast action te eliminate the Ian Smith regime and though it de- mands the use of force, it is well aware that Britain is not inclined to accept such a de- mand. The most sensible approach, as Britain, Canada and Aus- tralia see it, is to exercise pa- tience, continue to tighten the economic screws against Rho- desia and wait. Canada has cut virtually all trade with Rhodesia but Zam- bia still imports a lot of Rho- desian goods to keep its econ- omy going. Indeed, one appar- ent reason for Zambia's call for force is that a decisive change could: be expected almost im- mediately. Long, drawn - out economic warfare would be tremendously hard on Zambia's economy, which normally requires access through Rhodesia to the sea. rrew CWERS Bate Aside from Canada and Brit- ain, the Commonwealth hasn't shown much enthusiasm for making large-scale gifts to the hard-pressed Zambians. Prime Minister Wilson now has called for a great Commonwealth air lift, an expanded version of the Anglo « Canadian effort earlier this year, to supply Zambia from alternative sources. He has suggested that each mem- ber 'country that can afford to do so provide the cost of at least one aircraft or the equiv- DANCING NIGHTLY |Club Of Multi-Race Equalty May End Tattered, Useless alent im trucks or other road equipment.
