zones of Mozambique.  The people are impatient.  Refugees who
recently arrived at our headquarters bring a message from the
population of Southern Mozambique.  They ask FRELIMO to give
them arms.  They say that the toll of arrests and murders
carried out by the colonialists has strengthened their determination to fight.  They declare that they are ready to make
all sacrifices in order to liberate themselves from the net of
police encirclement under which they live and by which they are
constantly terrorised, to end exploitation and misery and to
win their freedom.
The divisions among our people., fomented for centuries by the
colonialists according to their principle of "divide and rule",
are gradually disappearing due to our policy of political
education.  Mozambicans from all parts of Mozambique today
fight side by side against the common enemy, Portuguese colonialism.
Our people are like a sea:  when high tide come, represented by
the joint and simultaneous action of all Mozambicans, that
will be the day of our independence.
