African StudentsHave No Freedom

Arrested For BeingUnemployed?

Why should an African bearre sted for not working at thistime of mass unemployment? Weare forced to do work on themines and far ms and other un­skilled .job s by the pass laws.

I am working with Whites anddoing the same job as they do,yet my pay is only £18.17.2 permo nth whereas they earn.£85.19.11. Yet in the shops we paythe same prices fur what we want.From the age of ten our youngboys are made to work instead ofattending schools and gettingeducation.

Let us stop this starv ation andsuicide which we have to endureby co-operating with the workers'trade unions in SACTU and b)lsmashing the pass laws,

We shall never get freedomwithout a struggle. We must notbe afraid of arrests, loss of jobs,kidnappings, bannings or beingexiled.

weakness. They cannot tolerate theslightest deviation in their ownranks, as witness the re cent purgeof the SABRA executive and thefantastic heresy trial of Prof.Geyser. That such measures arerequired today shows that even theNa tionalist faithful are beginningto waver as the pressure uponthem is intensified.

Tough Fight AheadThis is no time, however. for

illusions. The Nationalist ba rdcore remain in power , insanelyfanatical, determined, if necessary.to go down fighting rather thanreverse their policies. Just as theimperialist warmongers scream:" Rather death than communism,'so do the Nat die-hards echo" Rather death than communism,"

In both cases the eventual out­come is not in doubt. Most peoplewant to live, not to die for lostcauses. A p a I' th e i d will bedestroyed,

The election result means thatthe fight will be a toug h one. Bu~

the people of South Africa, sup­pressed hy force, hounded andhumiliated at every tur n, are nowmore than ever determined to faceup to thc tasks of resistance whichmust be undertaken if we are tosee freedom in our lifetime.

Having recently visited bothracial and multi-racial universities,and having spoken with professorsand students, I have gained a pic­ture of just how much universityapartheid is abhorred .

At the tribal university ofPietersburg students live underdetestable conditions . The y are notallowed to affiliate with studentsof other universities and may noteven communicate with such stu­dent bodies as NUSAS . Studentsmay read no political newspapersbut must be content with BADpublications.

In contrast, the non-white stu­dents at Wits University enjoyalmost comple te freedom.

In removing Africans from suchuniversities the Nati onalist Gov­ernment is preparing to trainstooges who will carry out itsBantustan policies.

Fellow Africans, do not be blindand all ow yourselves to be led toa blank wall by Maree.

The isolation of the NationalistGovernme nt has never been morecomplete than it is now. At homethey are hated by all sections ofthe non-Nationalist population.White and Black. who have to en­dure their domination. Abroad,world opinion is steadily hardcniru­against South Africa.

The very rigidity of the Nation­alists is a further sign of their

We were told that we wouldnow only have four holidays ayear. At that time , some of us re­fused to come to work and a day'spay was deducted.

The workers came together anddecided to see the boss and spoketo the foreman, Immediately after,one worker who was suspected ofbeing a leader, was dismisved,When tension mo unted the care­taker was called in to explain.T hey asked whe ther they wouldstill have their three weeks leave'!No. Would they work a five-dayweek? No.

The workers again asked to seethe boss but were refused andwere warned that if they did notcome to work on Octobe r 10 (apublic holiday) they would losetheir jobs.

THE ELECTION RESULT

A REPLY TOMR. MASE

The result of the election islikely to be twofold. On the onehand. a section of the anti­Nationalist opposition is likely tothrow in the towel, believing thatthe last possibility of removing theNationa lists from power by con­stitutional means has gone. Therewill be a few more Warings, Bar­lows, N ossels, Dollies and Matan­zimas to jump on the Natio nalistbandwagon, while the NUP -UnitedParty opposition stews in impo­tent sterility.

PolarisationOn the other hand, the election

result will complete the disillusion­ment of the majorit y of thepeople, Black and White, with theinstitutions of parl iamentary "de­mocra cy" under the present set-upin South Africa. More and morelof those who want change inSouth Africa will realise that itmust be sought outside Parliament .because the majority of the peoplehave no vote. There will be anintensification of var ious forms ofdirect action designed to removethe Verwoerd dictatorshin frompower and smash the colour baronce and for all.

We Africans cannot have a,happy attitude to this election. Thespeeches of the candidates empha­sise the need for more unity inour ran ks. We refuse to acceptsecond-hand citizenship in thecountry of our birth.

I warn the Go vernment tha t wewill not bear the frustra tion ofhaving our organisa tions bannedforever.

ZOLLIE Z. MAUND!Cape Town.

According to one of the CapeTown daily papers, Mr. C. Mase,Secretary of the Af rican GeneralWorkers' Union, is reported tohave sta ted at a public meeting inW ynb erg , that African s will ac­cept a qualified franchise if thequa lifications apply to all races.

Evidently Mr. Mase is speakingfor himself and the members ofhis union because no self-respect­ing African accepts a qualifiedfranchise if it means educationa land financial qualifications.

It is a trick of the oppressors toset qualifications for the franchisebecause they know perfectly wellthat they have denied educat ionto the African and closed all thedoors of economic advance tohim.

A qualified fra nchise is onlymeant to prolo ng white domina­tion which is tota lly rejected bythe Africans. We empha ticallydemand , one man one vote. Theonly qualification acceptable to usis the age qualification; that is aman or woman, irrespective ofrace, colour or creed, should be18 years or over to qualify for thevote, and no other qualification.

EDITORIAL

The present election is nodifferent from preceding ones inthat it seeks pel netual subordina­tion of the Black people. andWhile oraanisations must shareresponsibility for the ultimateoutcome.

The Natio nalists can have aclear conscience because they donot conceal what they want to dowith the Blacks.

But other op position par tieskeep vacillating between realitiesand the concept of race superior i­ty. The Nat ionalist Governmenthas at least given us no room forcompromise.

What strikes one as extremelyfunny is the wasting of thou­sands of nounds on the electionwhile many suffer from unemploy­ment and starvation, and all toreturn the same government topower with its costly aparth eid.Why not simply give them theright to ca rry Oil for another termwithout all this expense?

The Whites of South Africa areproud and think that they aregods themselves. These unChr istianWhites in Africa ar e in danger andJ appeal to them to change beforeit is too late.

We, the youth of South Africa,are prepared to take action at anytime in order to finish White do­mination and racial discrimina tion.

When we ask for a piece orbread they give us a stone andwhen we ask for some fish theygive us a snake. And when weask for peace and friendship theygive us sten guns and bullets.

I appeal to all Christians andNew Age readers to read this andpray to God because the time forliving is so shor t.

Govt. TeachingUs Violence

In our struggle for freedom wehave always been non-violent.Despite our non-violence we havebeen called the intimidator s andagitators by the Government.

But it IS we, the Blacks ofSouth Africa, who are being inti­midated. In some cases, such asSharpeville, even shot in coldblood. In all our efforts for abetter South Africa we are facedwith sara cens, guns and otherweapons.

We must learn that unity is theimportant thing. Under the pre­sent Go vernment we are oppres­sed, driven back to tribalism byBantu Education and Bantustans.We must continu e fighting for ouremancipation and for a multi­racial country until our aim isachieved.

The secretary of the Amanzimn­yama Tenants' Association, Mr. G.Ramsamy, states that in spite of thefact that a large number of peoplehave been living in these areas formany years, no serious attempt hasbeen made by the Durban CityCouncil to improve the lot of thepeople.

"... the people have been besetwith many oroblerns, such as badroads. insufficient communal taps,recreational facilities etc."

Detailing the names of certainroads and lanes, the letter statesthat at normal times these roadsare in a deplorable condition.

"After rainfall, they becomewater-logged and consequently be­come impassable. It is no exaggera­tion to say that in most cases the I

people have to remove their shoesbefore walking along these roads,"adds the letter.

Demanding that these roads behardened, the letter concludes: "Weshall be only too glad to assist you 'by personally conducting your re­presentatives on a tour of the area," .

But the old boy was unableto foil the horde of flag-wavingSmashionalist supporters whohustled him into the privy yell­ing: "Vote for us and helpsmash the country." One ofthem even went so far as to puta penny in the slot so the Ou­baas could vote, while othersthreatened that he would not belet out until he had shown themhis ballot paper.The remit was that the Smas" ­

Oubaas Turksvy, however, leftin a huff after telJing the DailyBlather that the elections were abig fraud as he had been led tobelieve that Mafeking had beenrelieved.

Colonel Paperbotham (KaffirWars, Rtd.) said that the Smash­ionalist victory only meant thatthe voters had been deluded intothinking that it was better tosmash the country than to disinte­grate it.

"But it is a moral victory forus also," whined the Colonel."After all we and the Smashiona­lists really believe in the samethings."

Thereupon he stalked off to hisoffices in tbe Pampoen-onder-die­bos Mining Company, followed byyoung Japie Washbasin, his newlyhired office-boy.

The ANC, drawing attention tothe fact that its offer to mediatewith the Israelites had been re­fused, protested strongly againstthe "pogrom' action of the autho­rities. It expressed doubt whetherthe Government would have takenthe same steps against Europeans,and announced that it would assistin the defence of the Israelites whowere left alive to face trial.

As a solemn demonstration ofprotest the Congress adjournedand marched in processionthro ugh the location, the bandplaying the Death March. A ser­vice was held for the dead.

The Government refused anenquiry. A film which had beentaken of the slaughter was sup­pressed.

The meeting passed a resolutionsaying: "T his meeting of CapeTown workers characterises theaction of the Government inshooting defenceless natives atBullhoek as wilful and wantonmurder. and calls on the workersof South Africa to organise forthe overthrow of the capitalistsystem which is alone responsiblefor the perpetuation of such actsof barbarism."

The resolution also demandedan enquiry and was forwarded tothe ICU (Industrial and Commer­cial Workers' Union) and theANC which was in session inBloemfontein at the time the mas­sacre occurred.

The Social-Democratic Federa­tion in Cape Town immediatelycalled a public meeting at the footof Adderley Street- their usualmeeting place. The meeting, whichwas attended by large numbers ofColoureds and Africans, was ad­dressed by socialists Wilfrid Harri­son, W. Dryburgh senior, and hisson, David, W. Green and S.Abrahams.

The pattern of the gamechanged completely in the secondhalf. S.A.R. turned defence intoattack and were rewarded whenAaron Engelbrecht went over toscore. Tiny Barnes not only suc­ceeded with the conversion, butwent over to touch down from thekick-off. Aaron Engelbrecht con­verted to put the home team in thelead. It was Engelbrecht who madethe game safe and scaled the S.A.R.victory with an unconverted try justbefore time.
