Khrushchev is tryin: to soften‘ the policy collision with tho Chi-E nese. but his luck is limited. and‘ China in 1964 continues to men- ace the solidity of the Commit-I nist camp. ‘

AFRICA

By ADRIAN PORTER i JOHANNESBURG, South Al-. rica tAPt—In the part of is; world known as “Africa south of! the Sahara" the coming year should see two main develop- ments. , The first. will be the contlnu-t ing struggle by the anti-colonial- 5 ists against the last entrenchedi bases of power--South Afric¢,; Portugal's Angola and Mozam-= bique. and the self-governing British colony of Southern Rho-I
