Johannesburg boycott protests racial policies
Thousands of blacks in the Johannesburg area began a three day work boycott to protest racial policies of South Africa's white minority. Soweto resembled a graveyard with little black commuter traffic and reduced attendance at firms. Leaflets urged workers to stay home and residents to support the protest, with plans to extend to other townships in Transvaal.

Kissinger proposes cooling plans for Rhodesia crisis
Secretary of State Kissinger flies to southern Africa with three proposals to dampen a black white war in Rhodesia. He aims to establish a negotiating forum for a peaceful handover to black majority within two years with multibillion dollar backing from the United States and allies. He also seeks a constitutional parley for Namibia and urges Vorster to pursue gradual peaceful change while including SWAPO in discussions.
