‘Smith Sees Goon Humanity Testing Time

Crisis In Rhodesia — Watched By World

S| By JOSEPH MacSWEEN_

‘ LONDON (CP) — The isth

| prime ministers’ confer-| ence opening today marks a “testing- time of humanity,” said Canadian Arnold § Smith, head of the Commonwealth sec- retariat. a

addressing reporters

hion the eve of the 10-day confer-

ence, put the problem of Rho- desia—in—a— world context and listeners not to “alarmist or despondent’’ — the prospects of the Common- wealth.

He admitted that the 22-coun- try ‘ conference is _ critical—of fundamental. importance~ to the Commonwealth. and: the world— because of the defiance of the white-supremacist._ regime _ rul- ing Rhodesia.

Some . writers and political

leaders had described it as.a testing time that could threaten the existence of the -Common- “it strikes me as more profound to regard this not as-a testing time of the Conimonwéalth but of human- ity.” “The real question is whether mankind can co-operate across the divisions of race and ¢con- tinents."’
