TSOEBEBE, Vice President B.D.P. I attended the Thirteen Parliamentary Course held at Westminster in April 1964 with Mr. G. Sim of Gaberones. There were representatives from twenty-seven Commonwealth countries and it was a privilage to rub shoulders with intellectuals from all parts of the world. Towards the end of the course we went to Northern Ireland as guests of the Northern Ireland Branch of the Commonwealth Parliamentary Association (C.P.A.) and also to Jersey as guests of the Jersey Branch of the C.P.A. When the course dispersed on the 4th May I returned through East and Central Africa in order to pay respects to Leaders of some of the Independent African States with a view * Continued on Page 2 * Mr. Seretse Khama is seen working with a group of students at Swaneng Hill School.

THERISANYO - CONSULTATION 13th PARLIAMENTARY COURSE * Continued from Pager 1 of putting the Bechuanaland Democratic Party in the picture. Before leaving London I was fortunate to have an interview with the Rt. Hon. Dr. K. D. Kaunda, Prime Minister of the Northern Rhodesia, who was in London for conference on constitutional talks regarding Zambia's Independence. He gave me introductory letters to the Rt. Hon. Dr. Milton Obete, Prime Minister of Uganda, the Rt. Hon. Mzee Kenyatta, Prime Minister of Kdnya and the Rt. Hon. Mwalimu Dr. Julius Nyerere, President of the Union of Tanganyika and Zanzibar and my passage through these countries was wonderful. INTERVIEW At Nairobi I had an interview with the Hon. Koimange, Minister of State for Pan African Affairs and Secretary General of the Pan African Movement East and Central Africa PAFMECA of which Dr. Kaunda is the chairman. It is from him that I learned of the African Liberation Committee a product of the Addis Ababa Conference of 1963 with headquarters at Dar-es-Salaam. At Dar-es-Salaam I had occasion to meet the secretaries of the African Liberation Committee in the absence of the chairman, the Hon. 0. S. Kambona, Minister of External Affairs, Republic of Tanganyika and Zanzibar, who was away in Europe at the time, on official engagements. It was disclosed to me that Mr. P. G. Matante then Vice President No. 1 B.P.P. now President of B.P.P. No. 3, and Mr. M. K. Mpho, President of No. 2 BPP or BIP, as it has recently been renamed, appeared before the Liberation Committee in June 1963 petitioning for funds and were advised to reconcile in order to obtain funds although it took practically six months before the waring factions met at Mahalapye in January 1964. And insteed of coming together caused another split resulting in the party having three factions. CARRY THE PARTY I made it quite clear to the secretaries of the Liberation Commities that from the very on set our aim was to carry the Party to the people of Bechuanaland. Only after people had accepted us could we feel that we had a mendate from them to go to the whole of Africa and the rest of the world as their represtatives. We did not want to repeat the mistake our rivals had made by going to the outside world first and then returning home to argue that because they accepted by the outside the world, the people of Bechuanaland were therefore obliged to accept them as leaders. I pointed it out to them that now that we had accomplished our first task, the people have accepted our party and us as leaders, we are in a position to start making contacts with organisations in Africa and elsewhere, so that there may be communication betwdeen them and ourselves. More and above that I pointed out to them that the Bechuanaland Democratic Party offers the country a team of men good and true, men who have stood and will stand together on all matters, men who will not indulge in intrique or otherwise. I made it clear to them that we could not accommodate a party like the Bechuanaland Peoples Party which was in total disarray a split National Executive running over, a party bankrupt of policies, and, lacking ordinary human decency to say nothing of lack of political scrupules Against this the Bechuanaland Democratic Party presented itself to the African Liberation Committee as a party more united than at any time since it came into being in 1962. TALKS WITH UNIP At Lusaka I had useful talks with Mr. Mundia, Minister of Local Government and Unip Director of Elections and Deputy National Treasurer. At the time they were busy preparing f o r Local Government elections which were due to take place a few days from then. Secondly I paid a visit to the Minister of Lands and Works Mr. S. Kalulu, National Chairman of Unip, who briefed me on how they had organised for elections last January. Last but not least, I paid a courtesy call on the acting Prime Minister Mr. Kamanga - who Is the Vice President of Unip The impression formed through these talks is that the leaders of East and Central Africa would appreciate occasional contacts of this nature and above all they have the greatest regard for the President of the Bechuanaland Democratic Party. Tsholetsa Domkrag! 9 Mr. R. B. Chibana of Kanye who has recently been contributing some stimulating articles, to Therisanyo. Among his articles are: 1. Beseshaba, Thuto, Papadi. 2. Are the Indians Assimilable which wrongly appeared under Mr. Matlhabaphiri's name in the May issue. We apologise to 'both Mr. Chibana and Mr. Matlhabaphiri for this mistake. Mr. Chibana's article was received with mixed feeling. Some readers who are not of Indian origin condemned it on the basis that it was racial. Those of Indian origin said it contained many untrue allegations.

Mr. Rasebolai Kgamane O.B.E., and Mr. Bogacu Pilane. They started their work at the beginning of June. It is hoped that they will finish before the end of July. Their function is to divide up the country into not substantially more or substantially less than 32 constituencies of approximately equal population. This division -of the country into constituencies is the first stage in preparing for the General Election next March. Number of Seats per District If you want to know the number of seats or constituencies any district will have, you will get a rough idea by dividing the total population of that district by 15,000. Registration of Voters September 21st has been set as the date for the beginning of registration of voters, this registration will entitles all Bechuanaland bona fide citizens to participate in the general elections on Marcch 1st 1965.

A WORD FROM THE SECRETARY Dear Democrats, I hope your representatives at the Lobatsi National Congress (March 28th - 29th 1964) have told you of the formula that the congress derived for the selection of candidates for the forthcoming general elections and how these candidates will be allocated to the 32 constituencies. BECHUANALAND FIRST It was decided that the Party's Inner Executive should look through the whole of Bechuanaland and select from the whole nations 32 citizens whom they consider the best available to whom the interests of Bechuanaland may be entrusted. CONSTITUENCIES SECOND Then they should take into account the secondary f unction of members of the Legislative Assembly, namely to represent the constituencies that elect them. So the 32 should be allocated to the 32 constituencies, by consultation with the Constituency Executive. Each Constituency Executive should be consulted about the prospective candidate that the Inner Executive will have allocated to the constituency of that Constituency Executive. The Constituency Executive may suggest alternative candidate or candidates provided the candidate they suggest has applied to be considered and provided that the candidate has not been allocated to another constituency and provided the candidate is willing to stand for that constituency. After the Inner Executive has had full consultation with the Constituency Executive, which may mean simple acceptance of the prospective candidate, or considerable negotiations, if necessary, involving comnni~.ino" ,,ne h~,rgs ininp'. a can- cation will serve two important functions. The first one will be to supply information about the prospective candidate. The second will be to make sure that the prospective candidate is interested in standing for election. MODEST CANDIDATE didate will be agreed upon. Where one is too modest to exThen the candidate will be noti- press his wish to stand, and it hapfled. The Constituency Executive pens that someone else requests that will inform their branches in that modest somebody be sent an appliconstituency. Whether the candi- cation form, the application form date will be announced'immediately will indeed be despatched to such an or kept a seeret, up to, the npiina- one. Mentioning to the President or tion day is a matter you will be in- Secretary or any member of the formed of later - applications of Inner Executive by word of mouth candidates, negotiations bargaining that one wishes to stand, will no etc., will, however, be secret. be regarded as expression of 0A wish to stand. CANDIDATE'S INITIATIVE By us only can Bechuanaland go All people who wish to be consid- forward, ered for candidature should express By us only can it be lifted, their wish in writing.
