Kulonyaka ka 1947 uITilangano ka Congress na'mhla ngomhla ka 24 ku Fay sobe sihlangene okwesibili lapha e Durban, Ngo ^February sasilapha s izo la l 'la izwi lika Fongameli omkhulu u Dr. A.B. Xutna o~ wayevela phesheya emhlanganweni wezizwe zcnke. Inkulumo ka Dr. Xuma yezwakala kamnadni kulabo ababevilalele e Bantu Social Centre. _Izwi lakhe kwaku ukuba thina njergeSizwe esinsundu lapha e South Africa kuhle sizifunele sithole abahlobo bethu bezinye izizwe._ Ngoba iqawe elihamba lodwa life la ehlane okukanye isikhumba salo * sirgaziwa nalapho sibolela khona.

Namhlanjena kusukela ngalelol^nga sekuvele okuningi o* kucindezele ukuba iFomidi ka Congress ibize ,lomhlangaro ukuphuthuma ukubs sibonisane ngako, Noma udaba luka Fing selwedlule kodwa kufane -le ukuba izwakale"l*ndaba ngoba maningi amavukana athanda ukudunga imimoya yabantu. No Ndabazabantu bathola ithuba lokuba baphathe^ lowo mkhosi nsrendlela eyakhalisa abamhlophe nabamnyama. Ukucashisa izwi lesikhalo slk- Zulu. Nokufihl- abaholi besizwe. Nokuveza ukusir-: sengathithi kuyathokozwa kulelizwe, kanti sithwele inkuns emclhanda, sikhala is ililo ngoba umuntu onsundu akasenayo indawo lajlho enokwa- kha khona ahlale ngokuphumula.

Fokhulunywa ngenhlalo yabantu emapulazini, abelungu n a wain a Indiya, lapho umuntu sevrphendulwa wer.ziwa i -itholwa engena- lizw i. Fokhulunywa ngenhlalo yalamazwe athengwe u Hulumeni ahlala^ abantu abaphethwe abelungu basezinkantolo. Urnuntu kuthiwa onomfazi oyedwa makalime amayeka amabili. Lamazwe kwakuthiwe azokwenezela izabelo zam^Fhosi. Namhla sekusobala ukuthi kakwenezelwa zabelo za- maFhosi ngob^ nawo amFhosi amnyama aphuciwe amandla lapho. ‘Ngikhu- luma nje abantu base Umzinto abantu abas^duze nekhulu babochwa emunye wahlawuliswa ishumi lawompondwe ngokulima amasimu pkhe. Nase Frantz- kop sebekhona ababekwe icala lokulima. NJenp"oba kuphela u Nay no _June abantu ab?ningi emapulazini abelungu nakulelozwe lifca Hulumeni ama Crown Lands,bazothwala inkuna bexoshwa khona. Fufuneka u Congress akhiphe izwi lakhe ukuthi uthini ngalolu udrba.

SinoMkhandlu waba Fhulumeli e P itcli ohlangana khona. ‘Namhla u Hulumeni uthathe abathile wayohlang^na nrbo e Capetown wa~ khuluma n^bc aoonde ukubusr ncr^ko. Laph* e N~trl ubashiyile bcr.ke ebakhethwa ->"*khosi nani bantu kodw° w^th^tha uFntwana u Mshiyeni ka Dinuzulu engethemb^ ukuthi wob? khona abeke izwi lakhe ngoh^mbo lwakh'e o." r-a l«pho ku General Smuts ophethe umbusc. Amazwi aphume ephepheni makhulu. . Fgiphawule njena ukuthi u General Smuts uvumile ukuthi sasioinisile ukuba siwuvale uNkhandlu kuze kube kahili ngoba uf'kh^ndlu indawo yokukhuluma njen? kodwa kungafezwa lutho. Nakoke lapho isibindi somuntu sifike simnike khona iziru^ngob? mhla _ sicinde- zela, sidela yonke imiyalo rivala uNhlangano sithi akuze izwi eli- nesethembiso izihlobo zethu eziningi zomlomo zasisol^ zasijik ijela ngamatshe.

Sokhuluma futhi ngamaBandla azimeleyo asakazeke lor.ke izwe ngegama lase Zulwini. ukuthi: Hambanini umhlaba worke nishumayele ukusindisw° kopher.dukayo. tlkangena kwalendaba emhlanganweni ka Congress kungoba kufanele ^maFhosi angamalungu ka Congress akwazi_ ukuvikela abantu bawo ekurhathweni kwawo nabo umthetho ka Hulumeni. Ifeuntu oneSonto elingabhaliwe e Pretoria kanawo umthetho vrokunikwa isiza endaweni yakwa fTulumeni knnti unav/o owokwakha emapulazini. U- Hulumeni kamniki r mathuba okuh^mba esitimel eni nokuthcla iwayini le~ Sidlo sericosi . Funguirsebanzi ka Congress loko ukubuzels abahluphe- k aye.

Akona am^conzu okuthiwa. atpa Tr.^de Unions. Lawo ahlangene nezinhlangan? zabelungu nama Indiya, Kufanele thina njengo Congress sibona ukuthi ngabe kuohubeka kanjani.

Fasikhulume ngokuncishiswa kwezinkomo. Noma kuzwakala k "b i namhl^nje uNobh^l-a ka Conaress uveze indlela ayibonayo naseke wayisebenzisa yokuthi mazithengiswe izinkomo zonke emapulazini.Khona abantu abasebenza khona bezofuna imali eninsri kuh i lepho un- l u n u wepulazi engavumi basuke epulazini lakhe babophe inithwala bayohlala endaweni ka Kulumeni noma iseNkantolo noma isesabelweri bathi nakhu lapha sesikhona Hulumeni si umthwalo wakho. Uthi umuntu uze afele ndawonyc ebanjwe uthando lwezinkomo kanti ubanjwe into emgcilazisa umlungu ongenaso isihawu, Lolu udaba lufuna ukuphathwa ngomoya opholile nobuka kude. Ngoba rempela tM na Zulu ayikho into emnlabeni eyifa ngaphandle kwenkomo. Kwala nosefundile kane'aPanani nonemali eBhapge adlule akhonze inkomo nembuzi yaVh-=.

Ukufeza loko usenze i Committee yemihla- nga.no ka Congress kanye n maoembu amabili elase Natal nel-s^ Trans­vaal e Indian Congress.
