Died. Tshekedi Khama, 53, tough, durable chief (1926-50) of the Bamangwato tribe in the British Protectorate of Bechuanaland, who imposed education, modern sanitation and agriculture on his impassive, faction-torn tribe, fought off encroachments of the adjoining, racist Union of South Africa; of a liver ailment; in London.

Segregationist by creed but able lawyer by profession, Mississippi's Governor James Plemon Coleman is no man to fool around with racist lawlessness.

Many of the blacks deliberately threw their support to the ultra-racist Dominion Party in order to deny Sir Roy his magic 16.

...Immature. At the head of the Congress is a Honolulu-born, 39-year-old racist who runs a native trading post on the outskirts of Salisbury and bears the ironic name of David Blackman. Members of Blackman's Congress must swear not to "contribute to multiracialism in any form" and to resist all efforts to give Negroes more power "in their present immature state." A branch of the movement opened in Northern Rhodesia, and members began signing up in Kenya and Tanganyika...
