RHODESIA is a coun­ try ravaged by war. As a plane approaches Salisbury Airport the cabin staff see that the blinds are drawn in c a s e o f a mi s s i le attack; When a plane takes off it


climbs as steeply as poss­ ible and banks, so as to avoid flying low over the bush surrounding the city. The wise visitor does not travel more than a few miles out of Salisbury without an armed escort and when people come into town to shop, they come carrying rifles which on entering an hotel they leave with the hall porter. Only a short time ago,


any British politician sit­ ting in the sumptuous Meikles Hotel would soon have found himself the centre of an angry crowd of white Rhodesians accus­ ing him and the British


Z I M B A B W E- RHODESIA is seldom out of the news these days and'Clitheroe Division MP Mr David Waddington has been there to see conditions for himself.

Translator dies at Sawley home


TECHNICAL translator Mr Josef Kunzel has died at his home, Friends Cottage, Sawley, at the age of 71.


Mr Kunzel was born in Czechoslovakia and studied English and Ger­ man at Prague University. He came to England just before the second world


war. He and his family lived


in Chur ch S t r e e t , Clitheroe, for many years, moving to Sawley 16 years ago.


Prior to working as a


Society of Friends in Saw­ ley, where there was a meeting for worship on Tuesday. Mr Kunzel leaves a wife,

black majority rule have already gone, those who remain have nowhere else to go. It is their country and there they must stay.


Sympathy I spoke to three- mem­


bers-of the present Gov­ ernment, including Mr Edward' Ma z a iwana , Minister of Education and Acting Prime Minister. All were aggrieved at the fai­ lure of the Conservatives


. to grant legal independ­ ence immediately after the General Election. After all, they had their


own elections in April when, in spite of the efforts of the Patriotic Front, there was a very high turnout and observers from Britain had declared that those elections had been conducted fairly. How then could it be


said that there had not been observance of the six principles? I had the greatest sym­


pathy for them, but pointed out that the grant­ ing of legal independence would have been a very hollow victory if the Inter­


such peace


national Community, as a whole and the front line . states in particular had refused to recognise the new Zimbabwe and the war had continued. There was just a chance now of an agreed settlement. ■ which would end the war. “But,” said the Minis­


ters, “have you any com­ prehension of what you are


■ asking of us? Here we are, a democratically elected Government, and yet you say that our ieader, Bishop Muzorewa, must return from London stripped of office and power. In the eves of the Afri­


can he will have surren­ dered at the negotiating table, he will not even be able to say that he has brought the war to an end, and the British iyill be making a gift to those who wish to destroy multi­ racial government and democracy itself in our country. Do not the British real-


- I found it difficult to reply.


Surprise I failed to make contact


with any representatives of the Patriotic Front, but'. I saw members of all the other parties. 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 was surprised to find


that no doctrinal or policy difference separated the parties. Each spokesman, merely insisted that his party contained fewer bad hats than any other.


Some wanted a longer


transitional period than the two months proposed by the British Government in order to .prepare their


election campaign, but all recognised that the longer the period the more dif­ ficult the task of maintain­ ing law and order and the greater the advantage to the Patriotic Front.


Good faith Some thought that if it


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 iik;- all those who have taken to the bush in recent years would return to normal


life. H u n d r e d s i f n o t


thousands would continue to live as brigands and bandits.


At the beginning of this year an amnesty was


is e that Mugabe has declared that he wants a one-party Marxist State? Have the British already forgotten that Nkomo has- been party to countless murders and crowed with delight when a passenger aircraft was shot down and the survivors butchered by his forces?”


offered to all terrorists prepared to give them­ selves up ana return to normal life and I spoke to Mr Malcolm Thompson, Director of the “Amnesty Directorate."


We discussed - the new-


t ec h n iq u e of “ sky ­ shouting” which had been adopted, when helicopters fly over the bush broad­ casting the terms of the amnesty so clearly that the message can be heard over a great area. 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.


Valiant Four times as many ter­


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 I is acting in good faith. Recent ly, however, a member of the Govern­ ment and a returnee carry- ] ing out this exercise were done to death.


I attended a service in


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.


The Dean commented on


the fact that few in this country, not even church leaders, had condemned the Patriot ic Front’s action. “The silence,” he said, was “deafening.”


Mr Smith has no doubt


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 pol i t i cs rather than feeding their own people are to blame.


The World Council of


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. British politicians it


concerned with ridding themselves of some obs­ cur e gui lt c ompl e x about our Imperial past than wi th helping the people who actually live in Rhodesia are to blame.


Above all (and some­


times from reading the papers you would think this has been entirely for­ gotten) the actual murder­ ers themselves are to blame. "One lhan, one vote” may be a laudable aim, but it is not one which oil are entitled to pursue iy hacking your fellow


I


men to death and dismem­ bering innocent women and children.


Let us hope and pray


that the horror of it all is nearly at an end. All must applaud the valiant efforts


which have been made by Lord Carrington over recent weeks. The people of Rhodesia deserve peace, but I can not pretend that I am very optimistic:,
