SOUTH AFRICA: Daniel in Judgment

On the eighth anniversary of the United Nations, Prime Minister Daniel Malan’s Nationalist Party warned last week that South Africa will walk out of the U.N. if India and other Asia-African nations persist in bringing up motions to condemn South Africa’s bitter apartheid (racial segregation). Said Malan: “The U.N. is a failure, a cancer eating at the peace and tranquillity of the world. Unless it is radically reformed, it should disappear from the face of the world.”
