She said it would have been
more effective in changing
South Africa's restrictive rac
ial policy if the U.N. had
"demanded that South Africa
>spell out the changes envisage
and to set out a timetable for
implementing them, and then
to take action if South Africa
failed to follow through.”
”To take steps which could
lead to a withdrawal from the
United Nations, may well
accomplish less in the long run
than insuring that South Africa
stays in the United Nations,
accountable to it and under
constant pressure to change,”
she said.
The 52-year-old legislator
also termed broad economic
boycotts of South African
products either "ineffective or
counterproductive. " She ac
knowledged, however, that
"in certain fields outside
pressures have been and wiP
continue to be the major factor
responsible for change in South
Africa.”
She objected to boycotts
because “not only would black
South Africans be adversely
affected and the first to lose
their jobs, but the major
weapon against apartheid,
which is economic develop
ment, would be blunted.”
