Combatente -- 16 ~- October 31, 19^7* THE MULUNGUSHI CONFERENCE RESULTS ANNOYED VORTER As we all know, last August, the United National Independenèe Party (UNIP) held at Mulungushi its first historic Confrence,since it name to power in 1964. Besides the 6,000 party delegates from all corners of the Repuhlic of Zambia, a number of international visitors had been invited to attend it. The 6,000 party delegates were going to ele* ot the new leaders or new UNIP Central Committee. The Conference was honoured by the presence of two other sons of Africa, Dr. Julius Nyerere of Tanzania and Dr. Milton Obote of Uganda. They met to decide the fate of the common man. Then Dr. Kaunda who had been returned unopposed as UNIP President took his place in the platform from where he proceeded to deliver his opening speech which lasted four hours. Speaking on Africa the President expressed great concern over events now taking place. The President spoke on African Unity, on closer co-operation between African States in order to prevent corrosion of their hard-won independence. He spoke of the Western World blaming it by having sent mercenaries to the Congo in order to preserve their interests. The president afterwards introduced the audience to Zambia* Humanina, the philosophy which would be applied to the young nation of Zambia, through implementation of its four-points as were outlined by the President: A. THAT no person should starve in Zambia, because there is no real hunger as is the case in many other parts of the World; B. THAT no person should really fail to have a decent tw* or three-roomed Kimberley briok house; C. THAT no person should really dress in rags in Zambia nor, indeed, go barefooted, AND D* THAT no person should ever suffer from malnutrition in Zambia. The President called upon all Zambians to implement this policy of Za- bian Humanism. It is no doubt that UNIP held democratic elections to its Central Committee. President Kaunda in his comment on Government policy, said: "The hour calls for patriotism,discipline,dedication and selflessness. Before this conference is over, as captain of this ship, I want to see how many true soldiers of the revolution I have... This is a serious challenge, but given the right qualities in leaders and followers alike,victory is assured". Following was the secret ballot which would give to the party new democratic leaders*
