Kissinger eyes Africa trip after Dar briefing
Secretary Kissinger weighs a half chance of averting a race war in southern Africa after briefings in Dar es Salaam on Rhodesia and Namibia. In Hamburg he told Helmut Schmidt that progress exists with Vorster on conflict areas. Schmidts replies center on Namibia where 30 000 Germans remain and on possible unilateral German funding for white Rhodesian resettlement. Kissinger plans a shuttle diplomacy tour with a likely Africa trip next week.
