Our forefathers were slaves.I have a pass which was given to me by God - it is 9 months being preg­nant - therefore you £ust Join the Congress. We agreed before that bussed will be boycotted. The increase of bus fares is made by the drivers, because they want more pay from the P.U.T.C.S. Malupe : interpreter Bennet Setchiro, spoke English, Mr. Chairman and fellow slaves, we meet at a critical time. G has waged a cold war against us, you have been warned by the Police, the bus increase is a part of Verwoerd and Schoeman, because they have^shares^ We aftcept the G challenge but our resolution will be carried out. We talk today our members are being arrested and are in jails. We say before the bus- fares are increased the wages of the African people must be increased.

A

Information received by us is that one of the Africans at Bethal wasdiga d out - a farmer did not report the death of this African. I sayto Police tell Mr. VanderBerg that the A.N.C. will carry on with theirwork - we are not afraid of machine guns. Mr. Van Der Berg depends onthe Police and jail. We for 302 years being slaves. £300 and 3 years

r\Kis nothing, we shall go to jail. I told you^is the last time you banrs.

Mr. Madeba, and you shall not ban another, if you do you shall also be banned. Mr. C.B. Swart can only ban me in Holland and in Germany but not in Africa, I demand our leaders, we are elected because of African people - the Dutch government rule the Afrikaners, if you want to fight j^pAfrioan people, I promise you that I will lead you. S A D of Africa there is no time for $alks. Arise and shine sun of Africa.My mother say I must act as chairfMV\ I will therefore call upon Emily Ramaokane. xEmily Ramaokane : spoke Sesutho : Africans you have heard our mother when opening the meeting, we are in trouble made by the Dutch people, the Detectives go about with motorcycles/because of our money. African! we heard the G say that we must carry masses, even the Police won't all< w their mothers and wives to carry passes. We want to see on the 1st of Jan., whether their wives will oarry passes. Our pass is 9 months being pregnant. I say we won't carry passes. He, Mr. Verwoerd must start with his mother and his wife, then we will carry passes. This is a bad thing that on Saturday and Sunday we must pay 4d. Fasten your trousers, let us go to Xails in thousands, we are no more afraid of Dutchmen. /Sekopane , spoke Sesotho, Africans the G is prepared to make our mother to carry passes. Dr. Malan Was,a church Minister.last year the Rail­ways money was increased, toda/ he increased bus fares.Mr. Kgopa Mosese, Sesotho, Africans I won't go far, we Africans are carrying ten passes.

VAN NQTAS GEMAAK DSUfl KA~ .SPEITR .KONST. DOUGLAS NDABA :

Mrs. Modikwe. spoke Sesotho, I thank you Mr. Chairman to allow me to address my people. I will ask you African men present here whether you have no wives, if you have, where art* they, why don't they come to such meetings. The G is going to issue passes to us. Let us come together. I appeal to you all to bring your wives to meetings. You volunteers bring all men to the//squares.Bennet Setshire , spoke English. Mr. Chairman, here let us apeak before

, we are banned, our days are numbered by the Special Branch, but it will turn to them. Our people are being banned day and night by the members of the S.B. - the day will come for you members of the S.B. If one can say o* the G we must be more and more, the G will be veryhappy and pleased. You see a young Dutchman sitting in the flying squadi whilst an African are taking notes. The African people have the right to elect their own leaders and speak for the Nation. The Congress does not look at the colour of somebody, but fighting for all. You members oJ the S.B. must be given m/cars instead of m/cycles, but the one to be blamed is C.R. Swart. We want Africans to choose their leaders and represent them in Parliament• The G of this country is mad he is against freedom of African people, and this country has become Police State. A aa i-e- sentenced without being tried by the court of law.Tday the N.G. is running away from UNO. We say to the G its grave will never be known, just as good as Mr. Hitler. Africans let us speak of freedom, the G will one day be forced to give freedom, if anyone against our freedom - if he comes from overseas, he shall go back overseas.Those members of the A.N.C. arrested, they are arrested for all people, the money to be paid will be paid by the African people as whole, this is a national affair. /Mr. Patrick, Sesotho, Africans many <y£ you are not here, are being soughi by Mr. Verwoerd. Detectives present: here don't go to Europeans' meet­ings and take notes. You African people don't come to meetings.

^ Mr. Mashamaite : Sesotho, in ourlifetime it will come back. I did not come to attend this meeting^ At Alexandra there is a big boycott of busses. Africans we must together. Whites brought death and

* .everything bad. In 1944 Alexandra Africans boycotted busses. Whites /are like snakes. This peoples come from Europe to work for their country. I They made Jan van Riebeeckfestival,, they buy m@cars with our money, evei they write, they don't trust the N/Detective. Many Africans have contra< ted T.B. I thank you Mr ./chairman; I hate a white naan, Police present here are called Kaffir Bblice, you spies the time is coming for you.Next year the A.N.C. will rule.^ Hitler was better than the Dutchman. Tell Swart that the black man will bite him (die Boerar moet nou stem) Money collected 13/llJ

Must be open to all and that sport be open to all and that Vic Towell can not be a Champion unless he has fought J . Tuli.But it is why this poor Afrikaners they apply apartheid because they know you can crust them. You know why the

poor Afrikaners oppress us. It is because they can seethe time is near for freedom. The whole ......... issupporting us. Friends beside being supported by the whole world.
