Tanganyika and multi racial government

TANGANYIKA AND INTERNATIONAL TRUSTEESHIP, by B. T. G. Chidzero (Published for the Royal Institute of International Affairs by the Oxford University Press: E I las.).
THE author treats of the constitutional position of the territory in its relation to its neigh
hours and in its development towards self-government.
In referring to the "plural" society of Tanganyika the writer himself a Central African by race cites with approval a passage from the Economist:
"Multi-racial government can never be a stable political system, or a set of brakes; but rather a process for creating new modern states in which power will inevitably be in the hands ,of the Africans."
The rulers
THE word "African" is here used in its popular sense of a man with a black skin and a certain cast of features. in other words the largest community in a multi-racial society will rule the others simply because it is the largest and, therefore, the strongest.
If this is right. the sooner those persons, who have become Africans upon more recent migration from other continents, disillusion themselves. the better. PAUL POTTER
