what was then Northern Rhodesia, . and to the cities of the south.

Thus the Kariba Dam be

came a reality. Built by an Italian cae

tion company, it has a wall

of con-

crete rising 420 feet from the river bed, with six floodgates to control the river, allowing over two million. gal- lons of water a second to thunder into the Zambesi and continue to the Indian Ocean. It cost, during its con- struction, the lives of 87 of the 2,000 Européan workers and 125 of 8,000

African workers.

It threatens now to cost more. For this is the dam whieh is jointly ad-

ministered’ by Zambia and Rhodesia’

to provide vital electric power to the ian copper production. At pres- ent all of its turbines, which have a

| capacity of 600 megawatts, are on the

Rhodesian side. In a second. stage of development, engineers were to be studying ‘this phase when Rhodesia declared its independence from Brit- _ain. It threatens now to destroy the

dam installations if'invaded.

Britain is not ready to invade; not

yet.

But she has dispatched forces

to Zambia where they will constitute an advanced base from which she

can move. if circumstances

compel

her to do so in the gathering struggle

over Rhodesia’s racial policies. Prime Minister Harold Wilson has

acted wisely in turning down the ul-

timatum from the Organization

of

African States, demanding that Brit- ain crush the Smith government by

Dec. 15.

But he has now bluntly ac- cused Premier Smith of “lies and‘

For example, Ci- cero said: ‘Let. reason prevail with me more than popular opinion;” and Seneca said: ‘‘No- thing is well-ordered that is has- ty and vrecipitate.” EMBODIES DIGNITY

modest rank.
