Riot police quell Africans as demonstrators face death toll rises
Riot police moved onto Cecil Rhodes Square in Salisbury to stop Africans from gathering for another protest amid a week of deadly clashes that left 13 black deaths. Police had fired on crowds Friday, looting followed, and four cars were burned as Britain urged action on settlement terms that would delay black political control. Grace Todd visited her jailed husband Garfield Todd and daughter Judith, reporting they were in good spirits and not yet ready to appeal detention orders, while Britain pressed Lord Pearce commission to weigh acceptance of the proposals.
