copy of the publication "African Claims” ®

Yours faithfully,BANTU WORLD (PTY) LIMITED.

MX*THE NON-EURO PEAK UNITY COMMITTEE.

To a l l Organisations.

P.O.Box 5475, CAPE TOWN,30th May,1945.

Dear Sir/Madam,We have plearure in sending you herewith a

copy of the minutes of the Unity Conference held in Cape Town last^January, We g regret che delay in publishing these minutes but it was due to circumstances outside our control. Would you please make a point of having this document r'ead by as many as possible so as to ensure that the lessons to be drawn from the conference have the ef^ct of laying solidly the foundation on which REAL Unity can be built. Owing to the shortage of funds (which we may say is very acute) we are making a small charge of 1 /- per copy to help towards meeting the printing costs’and we ask you please to send us a remittance for this amount* A limited number of additional copies can bo had for the same price. Please let us know immediately if you require more.

Since we met in January muda has happened not only to justify the course we took, but also to show the extreme urgency of building up the Unity Movement.

VE Day has come and gone. But unlike the VE Day of 1918, on this occasion we are under no illusions. When the fanfare of trumpets, Church bells and sirens, Which greeted the news of the end of Hostilities in Europe,died down, the people settled down to the grim reality that for them the real struggle for freedom from oppression is just beginning. Nazism may or may not have been crushed in Germany and Italy, but we know that the ideologi which gave birth to the doctrines of Hitler and Mussolini still" reign all over the world. Indeed we L'on-^rapeans kwe knew what It meant to live under the tyranny of a herrenvolk long before the Jews of Germany cane under the lash of Hitlerism, and there are no signs that for us this tyranny will end when the new ”Chart$ of Security" sees the light of day.

As a prelude to ’’victory for freedom and democracy”, Gen. Smuts reminded the world that for 300 years he and his ancestors have maintained white supremacy in South Africa, and was perfectly happy to know that there was nothing to fear that it ’would not last for another 300 years because, according to him, the only people who did not think so were people who were quite mad* He drew Inspiration from the knowledge that the whole ruling class, to whatever party they belong, agreed with him on this pointe And as usual made great play of the fallacy that the Non-Europoan ’’problem” was In fact three distinct "problems" - a fal£cy which, in the interests of the ideology of the"Master Race"he did so much to foster and nurture.

And so we see that victory or no victory, the process towards the complete enslavement of the Non-Europeans of South Africa is to go on without a. break. Without a blush the rulers went delirious with joy at the overthrow of Nazism in Europe whilst at the same time they continue merrily to tighten the screw of oppression against: us and for the rest hoped that their piou3 platitudes about "greedom", "The rights of man" etc.etc., which filled the air to harmonise with the Victory Bells would serve to obscure our view of the real situation in this country. We have nothing against Thanksgiving Services, amnesty for prisoners (90$ of whom were in any case in gaol because of our social system) etc., but we do say that these expressions of "thankfulness" would have- sounded less iisis hollow if they were accompanied by loosening the chains which enslaved 9,000,000 Non-Europeans, i.e. Colour Bars,Native Representative Councils, Coloured Advisory Coundils, Asia\tic Boards, Locations,Townships, and the rest.

But as they settle down to prepare for another 300 years of white suprenacy, there is one thing that the rulers are not only nervous about, but indeed fear. It is the Unity of the Non-European groups in the common struggle against oppression.It is not suprising, therefore, to find them using hook or crook

.. .-./crookto stop It. Their main, method of attack is still

Si campaign of deception by which they hope to play off one section against the other. Their ravings about tha "Influx of Natives Into the towns’” having failed in its object to incite the Coloured people against the Africans, they now come out with a. sop to the Coloured people by offering a QUALIFIED "compulsory" education scheme for Coloured children which nay or may not operate after 10 years. They hope that the Coloured people will be^taken in by this new fraud and thus turn from the path of Unity. Poifct 2 of the IQ Point Programme calls for compulsory education for ALL children up to theage of SIXTEEN without any qualification. Wo stand by this and on it we must not, AND WILL NOT compromise,As unis move will no doubt have no affect on the Coloured people, more sops may be expected In the future, perhaps this time to the Africans or the Indians. The Unity Executive Committee ur*cs you to be on your guard for this form of attack. Let no. section allow themselves to be bought out of the Unity Movement by

_ accepting '‘concessions" at the expense of their partners and fellow sufferers.Bub there is another danger which we would emphasise because

it is important to bear it in mind. Apathy on the part of Non- Europeans is more' dangerous to the Unity Movement than attacks by our common enemies because It tends to rot the movement from ..within, it is fatal to adopt the attitude that because we had a successful conference, adopted a lo Point Programme, passed resol­utions and formed a Unity Committee, the Unity Movement can now be left to look after itself. It is the urgent duty of all those who took part in the conference, indeed all those who wish to get rid of their chains, to translate the decisions taken ab the conference Into political reality. We must use all means at our disposal to explain to the people the real meaning and' implications of the, conference decisions; we must got down to the j.ob of forming local Co-Ordinating Unity Committeesj we must do every­thing possible to speed on the process of federation within the three racial groups thus helping to lay solidly the foundation of the Unity IMbvemont which, as you know, rests on the federal oodies of the three groups. Translate the 10 Point Programme into reality by invoking it whenever opportunity occurs or need arises? explain to the people the real meaning and purpose of Unity and thus give the lie to the stupid, yet poisonous, p3?egaH& propoganda which our enemies spread in order to discredit the movement„ Toll the people the truth viz., that the Unity Movement Is interested only ifl the formation of a common front to achieve th.9 common goal - emancipation from the yoke of a common oppression. And don’t hesitate to counteract the activities of the traitors within our own ranks whenever they attempt their shoddy moves to trick the people into the rulers* traps - there are many of these* notorious Individuals at large in all three -groups.

The Unity Executive Committee has been kept busy translating into practice some of the conference decisions. We are still trying to draw the African National Congress into the Movement and hope soonto be able to report progress In this direction. We have asked the Anti-Segregation Council of Natal to fill the vacancies left open on the Committee for the Indians. Two local Co-Ordinating Committees have been formed - one in the Cape and the other at East London.

The Chairman,Rev.Z.R.Mahabane, has summoned the full Committee to meet at Johannesburg In July and, amongst other things, thi3

meetm-vill draw up a manifesto on the question of the Non-Europeaa s and the Peace.

We wish to appeal to you again for funds. The work of building Unity is., and will continue to be, seriously handicapped by lack of funds unless this matter receives iirgent consideration* Please send donations, however small or big, to the Treasurer,Mr.E»C.Roberts,Tasman Street,Claremont,Cape,

Yours fraternally,E.Ram-sdale,S.A.Jayiya

Disoussions had taken place with Mr. Venables regarding accommodation for the School in a large building to be erected by the Municipality adjacent to the Bantu Men’s Social Centre. The new course in office administration had been held up pending the conclusion of several short-term courses which had completely filled the Time-table.

REPORT ON WORK OF SCHOOL: The Director reported that the work of the ' ScffooT'was proceeding satisfactorily. The student body now

consisted of 27 first-year; 15 second-year, and 1 third-year students. The staff was efficiently at work. He mentioned as deserving of special thanks the voluntary sorvices provided the School by the Municipal Departments of Non-European Affairs and of Public Health.

Sohool students, in their free time, were rendering ser­vice through various organisations. A short summary of these services is as follows:

This had been very successful, nine High Sohools taking part.The Director also reported on the work of the graduates of the 1944 class. All but one (Miss Molotto, who was considering several posts) were at work. Special and favourable reports had been received of the work of Mr. and Mrs. B.

FINANCE; The Hon. Treasurer (Mayor Immink) presented the Financial state- ment to December 31st, 1944 (attached hereto). The balance of Expenditure over Revenue for the year was £400.19.5, which reduced the Accumulated Funds to £577.10.8, Increased grants for the ourrent year of £500 by the Union Department of Native Affairs and of £500 by the Municipal Department of Social Welfare, with an in­crease of student assistance, would probably cover the increased expenditure caused by extension of course to three years.
