Winds of change sweep southern Africa in new era
The piece recalls Harold Macmillan’s 1980 remark on Africa’s winds of change and outlines evolving paths in Rhodesia and South West Africa. It notes Rhodesia’s mixed politics, opposition among black states and guerrilla factions, and prospects for a gradual transfer of power. It reports Pretoria’s accord with five Western powers on a two election path for Namibia's independence under UN auspices. The analysis weighs potential outcomes amid regional tensions and global involvement.

Wasteful Defense Spending Bombshell Aims At Pentagon
Washington columnist Jack Anderson charges that defense procurement laxity and looting at the Defense Personnel Support Center in Philadelphia have led to billions in unrecorded expenditures and missing goods. An inspector general report cites astronomical unliquidated obligations, unfiled documents, and weak inventories.
