Wednesday, July 6, 1977 Black Africa endorse Sol movementi LIBREVILLE, Gabon (A) - African leaders concluded their 14th annual summit meeting yes- terday with a strong endorsement of the Soviet- backed Patriotic Front as the sole legitimate black nationalist movement seeking to end white minority rule in Rhodesia. The decision, which has important implica- tions for the future of the black guerrilla war in Rhodesia, was made by consensus at the last working session of the four-day summit of the Organization of African Unity (OAU). THE LEADER of a rival Rhodesian nationalist group immediately denounced the OAU move, saying it "now makes it impossible for Zim- babwe to unite." Zimbabwe is the nationalists' name for Rhodesia. The approved resolution calls on the OAU's 49 member states to extend military, political and diplomatic backing only to the Patriotic Front among the various factions trying to unseat the white Rhodesian government. The resolution was the most important deci- sion taken at the OAU summit and was seen as a setback for the moderate, Western-oriented leaders who dominated most of the meeting ywith a three to two majority. ZAMBIA'S President Kenneth Kaunda, usual- ly regarded as a moderate, swung the balance in favor of the Patriotic Front, which is led by .Joshua Nkomo and Robert Mugabe. Speaking on behalf of the five frontline states most involved in aiding the Rhodesian national- ists - Zambia, Tanzania, Botswana, Angola and Mozambique - Kaunda warned the summit that any further OAU hesitation over endorsing the Patriotic Front could plunge a black-ruled Rho- desia into civil war. Delegation sources said Kaunda won over a number of moderates with the assurance that the front would not impose one-party rule on a future black-ruled Rhodesia but would hold free elections if Prime Minister Ian Smith's white regime is ousted. ' NKOMO AND Mugabe have said they will allow the people of Rhodesia to decide whether they want a one-party state like those in most of black Africa. The former British colony has 6.5 million blacks and 270,000 whites. Nkomo and Mugabe control most of the Rho- desian guerrilla forces, based in Mozambique and Zambia. The rival African National Council led by Bishop Abel Muzorewa is widely believed to have the support of a black majority inside Rhodesia but has almost no guerrilla support. The summit decision automatically deprived Muzorewa of his status as an OAU-supported na- tionalist leader, though the resolution demanded Jude won't delay GM tax probe feera DETROIT (UPI) - A federal judge yesterday refused to fur- ther delay a grand jury investi- gation into alleged tax impro- prieties by General Motors l Corp (GM). 104 The ruling by Judge James Churchill came in a sudden US. 35 District Court hearing prompt- ed by a challenge of grand jury ® 34 subpoenas by the giant auto companym tcp GM attorneys tried to appeal ffls an earlier Churchill decision 3 allowing the grand jury inves- ttgation to continue.

THE REV. Ndabiningi Sithole, a moderate G T whose support is believed to be the weakest of 1 E the four major Rhodesian nationalist leaders, is- sued a statement here rejecting the OAU deci- sion and. calling the Patriotic Front "a foreign organization mainly to serve foreign interests."-a "Our brothers abroad may help but, we be- lieve, they may not impose their wishes on us. The fact that we operate from their soil shouldEiL,.A~ not in any way make them assume a colonial role over Zimbabwe," he said. "The decision made by the summit this morn- ing now makes it impossible for Zimbabwe to unite." AT THE END of the OAU session, Nkomo and Mugabe, who in the past have vied with each other for leadership of the nationalist movement, told a joint news conference the Patriotic Front "is keeping the door open for any Zimbabwean to 'join us in the struggle." "There is no race for the leadership in the liberation struggle," Nkomo said. "Our task is to destroy British imperialism, colonialism and capitalism," Mugabe said. "The question of leadership can only be solved after the successful conclusion of the armed struggle." NKOMO. WHO has close ties to the Soviet Union, has said Moscow is the Patriotic Front's most important supplier of arms and military equipment. Mugabe, who seems the more ideo- logical of the two front leaders, has called for establishment of a "Socialist" state in Rhodesia after a black takeover. In other action on the final day of the sum- mit, the leaders scheduled a special OAU sum- mit for Lusaka, Zambia, in early October to dis- cuss the dispute between Morocco and Algeria over the former Spanish Sahara. The summit also approved a resolution pro- posed by Senegal's moderate President Leopold Senghor calling on all African states to refrain from using foreign troops to solve their internal problems and from allowing their territories to be used for attacks on neighboring states. THE RESOLUTION did not name any coun- try but was clearly aimed at the Cuban inter- vention in Angola and the invasion of Zaire's Shaba Province earlier this year by Shaba rebels based in Angola. The summit set up committees to study vari- ous border disputes between African neighbors, and appointed a special six-nation commission to seek an dffective oil embargo against Rho- desia from the members of the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC).
