Detained in Spisbury Prison since early 1964, President Sithole is being tried in/fascist Rhodesian High Court on fabricated charges of plotting to assassinate Smith and company. ited and Published by: Zimbabwe African National Union. PQ Box 2331, Lusaka, ZAMBIA. istered at the General Post Office as a Newspaper. FBW ,2EBRUARY 8, 1969 ICOMMIENT While the Portuguese colonialists use such devices as time bombs to murder their revolutionary adversaries, the Rhodesian fascists are employing the semi-legal method ofJftscist legality to achieve a similar end. For that is the only significant difference - a difference of style - between the dastardly murder this week of Bdwardo,,Mondlane by agents of Portuguese colonialism and the planned hanging of Ndabaningi Sithole by the fascist regime of Ian' Smith and company. President Sithole is being tried on two framed-up charges of ",inciting to murder" and "conspiring to commit murder". Both carry the death penalty. A third charge is that of contravening Section 29(1) of the Nazi-like "law and Order (Maintenance) Act. This too is a deliberate frame-up designed as an alternative for "getting" Sithole should ,the first two charges fail to achieve their purpose. The first two charges arise out of a letter President Sithole is alleged to have written from Salisbury jail last November ordering the assassination of "Physics","Logio" and"History". The prosecuting fascist alleges that these were code names for Ian Smith, Gestapo chief lardner- Burke and Jack Howman, the so-called External Affairs and Defence Minister. In point of fact Ndabaningi Sithole is being tried aimply for committing the "crime" of being a good, brave and effective revolutionary leader. The Rhodesian white fascists want him physically eliminated because every other device they have employed to neutralise or cower him down has failed. (continued on next page) ZIMBABWE NEWS, Page 2 ZIMBABwE NEWS, FEBRUARY 8,1969 Page 3 (continued from page 2) They believe that the only effectivc way of purging the Zimbabwe Liberation Movement of its relatively row revolutionary dynamism is to remove, by murder, the man most responsible for this dynamism: Ndabaningi Sithole. The fascists in Rhodesia will not be allowed to get away with their planned murder of our leader. If anything else the trial of this most dedicated leader has only served to show Zimbabweans that those true qualities of revolutionary leadership so ably displayed by our forefathers in the 1890-96 Chimurenga wars of resistance are not dead. For Sithole has shown the correct road - that of armed struggle - even though he has been looked up in jail for the last four years. It is now for us, the people of Zimbabwe,to follow hie courageous example with even more resolve. PEOPLE CROWD SITHOLE COURT From A Special Correspondent From last Monday when the trial began the galleries of Salisbury High Court have been filled to capacity with grin-faocd supporters of President Sithole. Some, including women with babies at their backs, had travelled from as far away as Fort Victoria to attend the trial. However, the majority of the people could not find places in the crowded court room, but were content to maintain a vigil outside the court room for, some say, as long as the trial lasts. The crowds have been disciplined for the most part, although five people are said to have been arrested on Tuesday after fascist police began taking photographs of those (continued on page 4) ZIMI~BAB WZS. +'-7FRY 8,1969 Page 4 ( continued from page 3) gathered outside the courtroom. Meanwhile there are reports of unorganised trouble in many rural areas including Chipinga, where President Sithole comes fromp but the fascist rivspapers which are on strict orders to "avoid inciting racial feelings" have remained silent. "MR. X11: THE BIOGRAPHY OF A TRAITOR FROM OURF CORR',PN)7iT "Mr. X", the, Salishuvry perjuu. who has featured prominantly in the trial of President Sithole, is in fact a 32 year-old father of three childr-r who lives in Highfield township, Salisbury. Although his real name s- "-emains a closely guarded secret, an informant has given a few details about this treacherous man; includirg his name which we promi'sed not to publish until a later date. According to this information, "X" - J a self-employed dealer in second-hand clothes. His friends claim he is a " most fluent liar" who only this yea- embezzled "large" sums of money from the Salisbury-based Peoples Christian Association by lying his way into a leadership position in that organisation Last October "X" wrote a letter to an Umtali friend claiming to be doing a "very profitable" job in Salisbury. Would the Umtali friend like to join "X" as a "business partner"? In the same letter he also claimed possession of "thousands" of pounds which "the missionacries" allegedly gave him to do relief work in the African Reserves. (coni-Inued on next page) ZIMBABWE NEWS, FEBRUARY 8,1969 Page 5 (continued from page 4) However, "X's" former friends believe that no relief organisatiom would have given this man "thousands" of pounds to use in the draught-stricken African Rural Areas because the man knew nothing about these areas. They strongly suspect that "X" got his "thousands" from CID Superintendent Rattray to try and uncover the under-ground activities of ZANU. This detective Rattray is the man who is said to have broken his way into the Harare home, an African womane"Mrs Y"), dropping a whole file of forged letters which were later claimed to have been found in her suitcase& But on Tuesday, "Mirs X" epatically declared in the fascist High Court:" I read in the morning newspaper that Iama spy, but a spy is a devil and lam not a spy". She denied having carried any messages from Salisbury Prison on behalf of President Sithole. Meanwhile "Mr.X" is being kept in "protective custody" somewhere in white Salisbury for fear that he might be killed for giving false testimony against President Sithole whom he has never met in his life. Both "X" and his family left their Highfield home shortly before comrade Sithole was removed to Goromonzi Prison last November. ARMED CAMP FROM OUR CORRESPONDENT Salisbury has never seen so many armed policemen as are presently "keeping the peace" during President Sithole's trial. Tight security measures were imposed as early as Sunday; a-day before the trial was to begin. Most of the policemen are concentrated in the African townships whore 4 are they patrol at night. S4iclar measures in force throughout the country. There were reports during the week that the FEBRUARY 8,1969 army garrisons at Inkomo near Salisbury and Llewellin Barracks near Bulawayo had been put on alert in the event of serious trouble occurring during or after the trial. ERDWARDO MONDIANE The assassination last Monday of Prelimo leader Edwardo Mondlane was a dastardly and cowardly act committed by the enemies of the Southern Africa liberation movement. By murdering Mcndlane, the Potuguese colonialists must have idly hoped for the collapse of his organisation and the entire armed struggle in Mozambique. There can be no doubt that Portugal's friends elsewhere in Southern Africa are looking forward to the collapse of morale among freedomfighters following the murder of Dr. Mondlane. We must disappoint both the Portuguese colonialists and their fascist friends in Rhodesia, Namibia, and South Africa by intensifying the armed effort. We must show these white fascist hangmen in Southern Africa that the assassination or hanging of individual leaders will neither destroy the liberation movement nor the fighting spirit of our peoples. However, the assassination, as President Kaunda has correctly advised, must serve as a warning against the daily machinatio4 of the common enemy: We must increase our revolutionary vigilance and tighten-up the security of our movements, for it would not help our revolutionary cause if the enemy were in future to repeat a similarly dastardly act with impunity. page 6 ZIMBABWE NEWS,.

These events have a bearing on Africa's course towards total political and economic independence as well as its eventual political unity. The French are known, throughout history,'for thei Ocntnental profession of the ideals of fraternity, equality and liberty. It is under thijsentiment that they devised the sophisticated but subtle method of a referendum in French Somaliland. To Africa in particular, and to the world in general, France wanted to present a facade of a French people towering above the filth of colonialist methods by leaving it to the people to choose their own direction by referendum. But deep down the Fiench were caught in the realities of their contradictory elements. French Somaliland is a springboard for their markets along the z East Coast of Africa and far afield across the Indian ocean. It is only convinient for them to keep French Somaliland under their firm control in the face of competition from other trading powers. This ensures a margin of French economic survival. Hence the blackmail of our African brothers in that color7.

Abstract This thesis uses evidence from British and international archives to examine the events leading up to Rhodesia’s Unilateral Declaration of Independence (UDI) on 11 November 1965 from the perspectives of Britain, the Old Commonwealth (Canada, Australia, and New Zealand), and the United States. Two underlying themes run throughout the thesis. First, it argues that although the problem of Rhodesian independence was highly complex, a UDI was by no means inevitable. There were courses of action that were dismissed or remained under explored (especially in Britain, but also in the Old Commonwealth, and the United States), which could have been pursued further and may have prevented a UDI.

  • The PIDE/DGS's Dealings with Rhodesia and South Africa
    Article Journal of Contemporary History 2014, Vol. 49(2) 366–389 Parallel Diplomacy, ! The Author(s) 2014 Reprints and permissions: sagepub.co.uk/journalsPermissions.nav Parallel War: The DOI: 10.1177/0022009413515536 PIDE/DGS’s Dealings jch.sagepub.com with Rhodesia and South Africa, 1961–74 Filipe Ribeiro de Meneses National University of Ireland, Maynooth, Ireland Robert McNamara University of Ulster, Ireland Abstract PIDE/DGS, Portugal’s secret police during the New State (1932–74), had an important role to play in the country’s colonial wars, which lasted from 1961 to 1974. Using documentation circulated at meetings held regularly with the police forces and intelli- gence services of UDI Rhodesia and South Africa, this article attempts to reveal the scale, and the limitations, of PIDE/DGS’s ambitions in that conflict. Keywords decolonization, PIDE, Portugal, Rhodesia, South Africa, war On 18 May 1974, The Economist published a scathing attack on the recently extin- guished Portuguese political police, the DGS (Direcc¸a˜ o Geral de Seguranc¸a, better known by its previous name, PIDE (Polı´cia Internacional e de Defesa do Estado)), whose headquarters, in the wake of the revolution of 25 April, was now in the hands of the military. The unnamed correspondent discounted lingering fears about the PIDE agents still at large: ‘I doubt whether those of its members who are still at liberty could constitute a threat to anyone but themselves’. The PIDE was portrayed as hopelessly old-fashioned. Officers were of poor quality; there were no computer- ized records; workshops and labs were out of date; the political indoctrination of the agents ‘would have pleased someone like Marshal Pe´tain 40 years ago’.

ABSTRACT My thesis offers an examination of U.S. policy towards Rhodesia as viewed through the lens of the respective Presidential administrations. The aim of my research is to demonstrate the changing American perspective on the Rhodesian question and how this directly affected the ultimate emergence of an independent Zimbabwe. I discuss the transformation in U.S. policy from the cautious approach of the Johnson White House, the shift towards ‘white Africa’ during the Nixon years as anti-communism and economic interests took centre stage and the subsequent attempt of the Ford Administration to achieve a peace settlement to prevent further communist expansion into southern Africa. Finally, I will analyse the critical role played by President Carter in bringing an end to UDI.

  • 1 TRACKING in the RHODESIAN ARMY Captain Allan Savory
    TRACKING IN THE RHODESIAN ARMY Captain Allan Savory, TCU (TF) Any book about the Scouts would be incomplete without some reference to its earliest origins and how the Rhodesian Army became the first army we knew of to train army trackers as opposed to employing native or indigenous trackers, as the British did in Malaya and Borneo, with the Senoi Praaq and the Sarawak Rangers. To understand how the Rhodesian Army became the first to train and use army trackers, rather than recruiting local native trackers, I need to go back to explaining why my thinking was so different from that of my fellow officers. I grew up during the Second World War, fiercely proud of the role of Rhodesians in various theatres and could think of little but joining the army at the first opportunity. I could foresee at least twenty years of peace ahead of us and I did not want to be a peacetime soldier. Vaguely I could foresee a different kind of warfare emerging after that – guerilla warfare. I therefore opted for a career in the Colonial Service in the then Northern Rhodesian Game Department. Over the following years I read everything I could about guerrilla campaigns around the world throughout history. In the Game Department I had close friends who had served with Peacock Force, a unit of XIV Army behind the Japanese lines - Major W.E. Poles, MC and Captain Frank Ansell - and I befriended an agricultural officer, Bill Verboom, who had fought with the Border Scouts in Borneo against Sukarno. These friends were pumped mercilessly for information - tactics, strategies, political control or influence and more - as I was determined to understand guerrilla warfare in depth and not merely from a military perspective.

  • White Chapter
    White 1 Chapter 7 “Other People’s Sons:” Conscription, Citizenship, and Families 1970-80 Jack Howman, Rhodesia’s minister of defence in 1973, was both a Rhodesian Front stalwart – he was a law partner of William Whaley who had headed the 1968 constitutional commission that brought about what was arguably the most retrogressive constitution on earth in 1969 – and an old guard Rhodesian, a man born in the country to a family with deep roots in its service, a genealogy similar to the liberal whites who had opposed UDI. Indeed, his brother, Roger Howman, retired from internal affairs, as native affairs was now called, because of the 1969 constitution. As minister of defence Howman struggled to raise soldiers’ pay. It was traditional “especially in frontier societies” like Rhodesia or South Africa that citizens had a duty to defend the state. A citizen force should be given “adequate remuneration for comparatively short periods of service” which “young and developing countries” that could not afford a standing army required. But now the country mobilized large numbers of young men for rates of pay that had the same purchasing power as they had in 1955. Not only was this too low, but the differential between what men in different regiments were paid was too great for effective service. While the principles that determined policies of different pay and allowances for regular and short term auxiliary forces was justified, it was time for Rhodesia “to accept the financial and economic consequences of putting the country on a war footing.” Raising soldiers’ pay was only part of the problem, however.

  • 6 Equal Station
    Component Description Title of Lesson Equal Station Content/Subject US History Area Context The Declaration of Independence is remembered as the beginning of modern democracy. In Philadelphia we are fortunate enough to claim it as our own. The bold preamble declares that not only will American govern its own lands but also that the young country demands “Equal Station” with Britain, a demand that was unheard of at the time. When Thomas Jefferson committed to paper the ideas and sentiments of his fellow members of the Continental Congress, we must wonder if he knew what lasting repercussions his words would have. Today Jefferson’s words have inspired more than half of the members of the 192 nation UN Assembly to declare independence and assume their equal station on the planet. In 1789 we saw our allies the French with their Declaration of the RIghts of Man and the ​ Citizen. African American Soldiers returning home from WWI felt a ​ particular sting of disillusionment and drafted their own 54 item missive to represent the “Negro Peoples of the World”. In 1965 Rhodesia declared their independence from Britain drafting their own document, the Rhodesian Unilateral Declaration of ​ Independence, however they deviated a bit at the end by signing it ​ “God Save the Queen”.
