In a messaae to South'Afri- ca,Mrs. Mafekengsaid: Al- thoughIam cut off from the restof my children and my husband. I feel much freer po- litically and socially in Basuto- landthan Ihad been in the Union.

DUR BAN.

A

HIGH level of classconscious ness and a furtherconcrete example of Indo-Africa nco-operation was displayed when over 200 Africanworkerswalked out ofa local wool- washery in Durban fastweekin protest againstthe dismissal of about20Indian women workers whohad joined their trade union.

The backgr ound tothis great demonstrationof working class solidarity flowsfrom theProvince-widepolitical dem- onstrations which wassparkedoffby thebeer hall boycott in Durbanearly in Junethis year. Among thethousands of workers thatwere organised bythe SouthAfricanCongress of Trade Unionsduring these demonstrationsand in the following months, werethe African workers employed by this wool-washing concern. Atameeting ofthese workers earlyin August many workersraisedthe question of erganis- ing theirfellowIndianwomen workers.

When approached by Tradel\iF~~~~~~~~::;;]

Union officialsthe women pointed out that as theywere in a minority -only23 Indian womenwerein employment at thisfactor y-they were afraidofvictimisationif they

THE DE M OCRA TI C PARTY OF GUINEA,

he expla ins,is a nationalmovement uniting allth e forcesin Guinea which are determined to fight colo- niali smand build asolidly democratic state in the country.It is a popularmovement which unites th e ma ssesof the countrywho want tocontributeto- wardsitsprogramme for the public welfare.

"Our party,"he states, "pro ceeds in a scientific manner:itanalyse sconcretelythe situations which aris e, with a view to determining its objectives and thevariousformsof its action."

The membersof the Partymust constantly str ive to understand its principlesfully,to popularise them amo n gstthe masses,and to translatethem intoday to davactivity.

"When you stop makingcensure and self-c riti cism in the Part y," head ds,th e Partyslowly dies.In principleever yon e sh o uld serve the Pa rty andno ne sho u ld use it to servehimself."

"Thereare democratic and non-democraticStat es.

whichcan be distinguishedfrom eachother by the importance ofthe part played by th e masses, by the importanceof the participationofthe people in the affairs of State."

But whe thera country bedem oc ra tic or not,Tour e explains, it musthave a dictatorship,i.e.a concen- tra tion of power in the hands of one manor a group of men. exertedover the people asawhole.

Ifthe au th ority of the Sta te ,ifthe dictatorship exercisedbythe govern m ent,emanatesdirectlyfrom the wh o le of the peop le, then thedictatorship isof a popular nature andthe nationisademocratic one, democra cy beina theexercisebyth epeopl eofNa - tionalSovereignty.

In history we findleaderswho have ruled forthe benefit of thepeople. "But, an d thisis theimpor tan t point, the popu lar qual ity of theso vereign tyexert ed bya manora grou pof men is necessarily preca ri ou s because it ca nberadically modifiedby the sole will of the man or groupof men who exert it."
