Tribesmen's Confessions Give Hope
Nairobi, Aug. 31.
The confessions of some 2,500 Meru tribesmen who came forward in one week in July to make written statements that they have taken the Mau Mau oath, have produced the first glimmering of hope here that the Meru people are at last · beginning to learn that terrorism, thuggery, « oxtortion and murder do not pay.
All the confessions were made by the ordinary inhabitants of two areas on the eastern slopes of Mount Kenya where terrorism has until now gripped at least three-quarters of the Meru tribe.
