Over the past ten, years-, I have made three visits to South Africa, one a sabbati- cal. I have found marked changes in the country, in attitudes (which are most dif-, ficult to change), and in the laws that have been repealed or not enforced. The mixed marriage laws and pass laws have been repealed. Theaters, shops and restaurants are integrated for the most part. To be sure, blacks : do not give first priority to social rela- tions with whites. Affecting them most is the unfairness of licensing laws and regula- tions which do not permit them to compete economically on an equal basis with whites, or even Asians. If economic opportunities were opened up for all races, the current unrest would largely subside. The one-man, one- vote issue would fall to the back burner. Ironically, blacks tend to associate the present system with capitalism, and there- fore condemn it, often em- bracing Marxism as the sys- tem that will cure their ills — little realizing (that it is "ethnic socialism" (as histo- rian Paul Johnson has called it) that they have been enduring, and that the mar-. ket economy is their best means of getting out of their present situation, creating industries and jobs. • ' • Instead of sanctions, the policy toward South Africa ought to be just the opposite: South Africa ought to be flooded with investment, thereby making it something of an American territory. In that way American influence would be felt and it would help create jobs. On my recent trip to South Africa, I again visited Cros- sroads, -the squatter camp near Cape Town. What I heard over and over again was the desire for work. They want to improve their mate- rial existence. Investment in enterprises that would pro- vide jobs for them would surely be more helpful than divestment. Tourists might ask to stay in the area -- hotels there would quickly be built. Whatever its economic im- pact, sanctions are psycholog- ically demoralizing. Isolation of the country prompts those who can leave to do so, to the detriment of the country. The English, the Portuguese, the Jews depart — leaving 'the hardrock Afrikaaner, who has no place to go. In particu- lar, professional people emi- grate. The medical profession has dwindled . some 30 to 50 percent. Very few young Jewish professionals remain in the country (leaving their elders). The' formula is for another.

One said to me,' "We're an - isolated people. We're 14 hours by air from Europe, and it's expen- sive. Our horizons are broadened by foreign enterprises and scholars who come to our country. Boycotts do just the opposite." The Jewish community in South Africa, while long op- posed to apartheid, does not endorse sanctions. Like Alan Paton and Zulu Chief M.G. Buthelezi,, they consider it a call to chaos. Lest we forget, thousands of Jews came to South Africa from the Baltic states and Affecting blacks most are the unfair laws which do not allow them to compete- . economically on an equal basis With whites, or even Asians. ' other parts• of Europe to find economic and religious free- dom. The South - African Jewish community, now numbering 115,000, has been allowed to maintain financial ties with Israel despite South Africa's tight control over foreign investments. The task in South Africa is not to destroy the country but to expand its institutions to include all of its citizens. Without violence, invest- went whittles away at apar- theid. With investment, South African professionals (its 'most liberal people) would remain. Sanctions re- , tard. reform. ' Israeli, Polish Relations Improving New York (JTAI — Rela- tions between Poland and Israel are improving in all areas, according to Kalman Sultanik who was reelected . prenident of the American Federation of Polish Jews lest week. Addressing the federation's annual conference here, mark- ing 1,000 year of Jewish life in Poland; Sultanik spoke of encouraging signs that Israel and Poland are drawing closer after 20 years without diplo- matic •ties. He stressed that the content of their relations, for .example, cultural ex- changes, "are more important than their formality Nevertheless, reporting in .
