The London MCF has issued a statement to all affiliated organis~ ations and individual members on the question of Southern Rhodegia. The statement explains what white-sottler “indopendencewould amount to,and givesdetails of the repression in the country. It exposes the shocking attitude of the British Tory Government on this question which culminated in the use of the veto in the U.N. Security Council to kill a resolution,which had been passed overyheImingly, which called on the British Government not to grant the white settlers their "independence." The statement ends with a call to actions

",..e.demand that the British Government immediately suspends the present Constitution and white-minority Government, and calls a nationwide conference of all peoples in Southern Rhodesia to prepare a new, democratic Constitution, based on cquality and full adult suffrage, irrespoctive of race or any other qualification."
