Waterloo Teacher's
Experiences In
Africa Seven Years
(continued from page 1)
sites where missions had br-
ought about an area of less
primitive way of life.
From 1954 on have come gr-
eat changes. The feeling for
self government came to Afri-
ca. The people wanted the new
witchcraft which came from
books.
The British hoped that in
time (30-50 years) they could
train Africans to be experts
in all field's, theri they could
take over their own countries
at a good level of civilization.
The French hoped for the Af-
ricans to become good French-
men. The Belgians had no
thought of self-government.
Economic development was the
important thing. They had no
idea of political development.
None of these plans worked.
Mr. Cairns was involved in
much of the introduction of
the election systems, but he
could see there was not enough
time. Though the Africans cou-
ld not wait for self - govern-
ment, they were not able to
read. Voting was done by use
of pictures, and candidates
were known as "the lion", "the
tiger" or other animals.
' Since the British believed in
democracy, it became impos-
sible for them to rule. Im-
prisonment meant nothing. Jail
meant only that the prisoner
was fed better and had better
medical treatment than he
could get at home. So they
have set up a system of in-
ternal self-government, with
still some direction in world
affairs.
The new African leaders are
very young, for they are the
educated ones. Anyone with a
high school education is a big
man. With university education
a man can count on being a
minister of the government.
"What can Canada do?"
went on Mr. Cairns, "We can
do more than we think. A mil-
lion dollars spent on education
of Africans by scholarship in
our country would have much
greater result than two million
spent on defence. The Russians
