Warner, Harry S. | February 21, 1953 issue

add to cart   close window

With the aim of breaking all resistance, native, colored, or white, segregation as the dominant factor in South African life, Justice Minister C.R. Swart has introduced a bill which would give the South African government the right to suspend virtually all law in cases of loosely defined emergencies. Everyone knows what nationalists of South Africa mean when they speak of "emergencies." In the spring of last year the non-whites of South Africa, with the support and sympathy of democratic-minded whites, launched a campaign of passive resistance to the apartheid laws.
