The talks were sponsored by the British Council of the region and were based on д lecture series entitled "Tucial Understanding".

Mr R. A. Sherwood, Acting Director of the British Counell in Western Nigeria, writing in the West African Review, states that they were at no time acrimonious or bitter.?

The talks opened with the

The other subjects dealt with fell under the headings "The Need for Racial Understanding", "Colour Prejudice", "The Prob- lems of a Multi-Racial Society" and

"Racial

The last named of these dis- cussions was developed by the editors of the leading publica- tions in Western Nigerin and the Regional Pubile Relationa Officer. The remainder were presented and discussed by pro- minent African

and European members of the Ibadan munity.

The Yugoslav Government has drafted a new electoral law which,

The basic idea is that voters will not quly elect the members of the Federal Council or Lower House of Parliament, but will first of all choose direct- ly the candidates for election.
