WHERETO FOR OIL?
Now that South Africa's
oil supply is threatened by
the changes occuring in
Iran, the Pretoria govern
ment has asked for help
from some powerful friends.
The South Africa oil
companies whose parent
firms are part of the Iranian
oil consortium have been
asked by Economic Affairs
Minister Chris Heunis to
draw up contingency plans
for getting the necessary
Crude.
Shell, British Petroleum,
French-owned Total, Mobil,
Caltex (Standard of Califon
and Texaco), and Exxon are
the majors which operate in
both South Africa and
Iran. The new Iranian prime
minister has said his country
will no longer sell to South
Africa, and the exiled
religious opposition leader
AyotoOah s, Khomeini ; has
made a similar pledge. Just
where South African can
expect to get the 90 of
its supply perviously
coming from . Iran is ,nol
yet known. The Arab and
African oil producers have
observed a near complete
boycott of South Africa
since 1973.

Recognition that
African guerrilas opposed
to the current regime are
growing more powerful all
the time is apparently now
widespread among the
countries whites. Smith
said the answer is to be
found in a , poltical, not
military, solution.
Not surprisingly, the
mood on the other side,
is more hopeful. Rex
Nhongo, commander of the
ZANU wing of the Pa
triotic Front told Mozam
bique's Tempo magazine:
"The morale of the com
batants in the. liberated
zone - is very high. They
have no doubts but that
they will take power soon."

strategy. Nhongo says, is to
establish "liberated zones"
in the northwest region,
where the guerrilla presence
has been limited.
"Then we will go to the
basic strategy of this
offensive: isolation of the
enemy in the cities by
destruction of all means
of communication,"
Nhongo says.

being called a "self-confessed
Marxist" in News
week. When his coup d'etat
succeeded, foreigners who
had been attracted by the
socialist philosophy of the
man he overthrew began
leaving the country in
droves; but his captial
became a haven for left
ist exiles from around the
world.
One of his early
speeches so angered women
that officials had to bar
the door to prevent a
walkout; by his death he
had staked the prestige of
his government on backing
Sahran guerillas, for whom
the liberation of women is a
principal aim.
He was Houari Boumed
iene, leader of Algeria since
he overthrew Ahmed Ben
Bella in 1965, unil his
death on December 27.
After thirteen years as
president of a strategic
and resource rich nation,
his life's basic details are
still in dispute.
According to Marina and
David Ottoway, Boumed
iene was born Mohamed
Ben Brahim Boukharouba
on August 23. 1932, in
eastern Algeria. In 1952
he ilea me country iu

French army, and studied at
Cairo's Al-Azhar University,
When the Algerian
revolution began he joined
the fight against French
rule, rising by February
1960 to leader of the
General staff of the Na
tional Liberation Army. In
1964 he was elected to

Boumediene's highly
nationalistic regime began
with deep suspicion of all
outsiders.
But in retrospect there
appears much truth to Bou
mdiene' claim that his dis
agreements with Ben Bella
were less ideological than
functional. While Ben Bella
talked of worker and
peasant management, and
Boumediene favored what
he saw as the more orderly
method of state control, in
practice their policies dif-
