Representa tives of Zanu said the April elections were not fair, but had the grace to look some what shame faced when it was pointed out to them that at the close of the voting their leader, the Reverend Sithole, had expressed complete satis faction with the way things had gone and only changed his mind when the results were announced and he discovered he had lost!
I failed to make contact
that no doctrinal or policy difference separated the parties. Each spokesman, merely insisted that his party contained fewer bad hats than any other.
I was surprised to find

Some wanted a longer Good faith
took part in an election the Patriotic Front would win. Some believed that the. Bishop still had the advan-' tage. All, however, were in agreement that what ever the outcome, it was unlikely that anything like all those who have taken to the bush in recent years would return to normal life.
Some thought that if it

There is a radio beamed through to Mozambique and Zambia and there is evidence from captured terrorists that the broadcasts are listened to in spite of death or a flogging being the penalty in the camps for having or using a set.
We discussed - the new Valiant
rorists are returning now as in January and when a man returns he is some times invited to go round the villages with a member of the Government to show that when offering an amnesty the Government is acting in good faith. Recently, however, a member of the Govern ment and a returnee carry ing out this exercise were done to death.

Salisbury Cathedral and I recalled that not so long ago the Dean conducted a memorial service for the victims of the attack on that aircraft to which I have already referred.
I attended a service in
the fact that few in this country, not even church leaders, had condemned the Patriotic Front’s action. “The silence," he said, was “deafening.”
The Dean commented on
much to account for, but it is absurd to cast him, as some do, as almost the sole villain of the piece. The Front line States who have been playing politics rather than feeding their own people are to blame.
Mr Smith has no doubt
Churches, which gave £45,000 to the Patriotic Front only three weeks after nine British mis sionaries and their children, (one a three-week-old boy) were murdered is to blame.
