Smith warns against a no vote in Rhodesia referendum
Rhodesia's white minority faces a referendum on a new constitution giving blacks a majority in Parliament. Prime Minister Ian Smith warned that a No vote would be disastrous as Nkomo and Mugabe rally in Moscow. a Yes would gain Western recognition and instal a government elected next April. The plan retains white control of civil service, judiciary, army, and police for years despite a black majority. About 94,700 whites are registered, with 15,000 abroad and many likely to boycott. The constitution grants whites 28 of 100 seats for 10 years and preserves cabinet and senior-official power for that period. Smith had declared independence in 1965 advocating white-led rule.
