Mau Mau Terrorism

LONG STRUGGLE AHEAD

WARNS GOVERNOR

OF KENYA

Nairobi, Apr. 5.

The Governor of Kenya, Sir Evelyn Baring, tonight an- nounced a four-point plan of operations against Mau Mau terrorism in a 15-minute broadcast to the Colony.

His plan called for:

1. The establishment and maintenance of firm and secure bases in tribal reserves and in European settled areas.

2. Relentless hunt for mobile terrorist gangs "wherever they show themselves and wherever they go."

3. The buildup of a Kikuyu resistance movement both in the reserves and settled areas and an improved flow of intelligence,

4. Provision of useful and constructive work for displaced Kikuyus.
