Rev. 3* P. Poland,181 Voale ’treat,New tticfcleneuk.PgBTQtti;*.Dear Treeland,

Before Jim Pols took the 10*15 a.m. train we went roun’ toother and had a talk with rapa *’yk. I am glad to say he agreed without he alt at Ionto chair the Interim committee but says he cannot do anything until after the Intep-drardb conference which la understandable.

I told him we ham pro vi sionally arranged the next mooting for Saturday oomlng the 19th December hut the question of importance is -dion to go and dlecKtim things with the Department of Social Welfare, By mm fooling ia tJi t we trill he in a stronger position If we wait until we hare aoso Idee ae to who la wlllinr to serve on the national committee but thle will ntsan waiting until after the meting on the loth when Government officials may he ateirtlng their holiday*.

As you are in Pretoria I wonder whether you could call before you go uway cn the 3rd and have an informal chat with the secretary for social Welfare Dr. Brunmer explaining to him that there is some delay in flfflttag the national committee established. It may be he will tell you what the CiweBnmeirt propose3 to do and than when we do have a formal discussion we will be in a bettor poalt.ion to ask a specific allocation for our South African act—up.

In the taeanwhlle X am writing to Geneva to ask If I can use sccse of the !‘.C.C. - Service to jlefugee funds for Interim correspondence and Mr. von **yk has promised to approach some people he thinks may assist In that tray. Vs decided that ae we cannot open an account until the national coramittoo is established we would a#k the south African Refugee Organisation to keep this money and administer it as a separate fund in their books, at any rate for the present.

I am grateful to you for your help yesterday because I esa feeling that I simply cannot take on any more responsibility If I am not to becoao f tllty of doing nothing well.

Sincerely yours,

c.c. Mr. T.J. van Vyk. Hr. J.M. Pole

Rev. S. P . Freeland New Muckleneuk,Rev. S. S. Seane PRETORIA.

Telephone: 78-3556.

1 st December, 1959.Rev. Dr. A.W. Blaxall,50$ Salstaff Building,Cor. Srait and Joubert Streets,JOHANNESBURG.

Dear Dr. Blaxall,Thank you for your letter reference C.lS (I) of

the 27th November, 1959.I went in to talk with Dr. Brummer today, and

the following are the main points which arose out of our conversa- ti onj

(1 ) The Government donated 23,000 dollars to the United Nations Commissiona? for the World Refugee Year some time back, and Mr. Eric Louw supported the Year in the United Nations. It does not appear that at the moment the Government has it In mincl to do anything further.

(2) Do we wish to ask the Government to take any further steps in the matter? Do we wish them to make a further grant - this 1s unlikeL y since any further money they felt they oould give would have been given through the Commlssiono*. Or have we any specific scheme in which ^

>> we want them to assist? I intimated that we had not reached that stage yet, but were going into the matteras soon as our National Committee was set up. Or did we simply want the moral support of the Government?The Minister, for instance, might be willing to address a pubLic gathering on the matter.

(3) Dr. Brummer felt that it would be quite useless to approach the Minister until (a) we had a strong repress! tative National Committee made up of well- known public figures, and (b) a clear programme of action. ”----- -

(ll-) He did not think there was much chance of Government support unless it was clear that whatever we intended

- 2 _

doing was backed by widespread, spontaneous public desire.(5) If we were thinking of bringing some of the refugees

into the country, he felt that we must be very cautious in presenting such an idea to the Government. The Grove?nment has teams of officials in overseas countries constantly screening would-be immigrants, and if any of the refugees in need could pass these tests they could enter the country through ordinary channels. When the 1,400 Hungarians were taken in a few years ago the great majority of them passed the necessary tests, and have made good. A few of them, however, were brought in only on humanitarian grounds, and these remain, and will remain till the end of their lives, a financial burden on the country.

(6) Dr. Brummerhad heard of the idea of founding a village for refugees in South Africa, aid because of the reasons mentioned in (5) above felt that it would not be wiseto press this idea in our approach to the Minister.

(7) Other Departments which go into this picture^would be Interior" (which deals with immigrants), and External Affairs(through which the original Government grant was made).

All this, it appears to me, adds up to one thing. We will have to recognise that urgent though the matter seems to us, it is going to take time (as you yourself emphasised in our committee meeting last week). As I see it we must first establish this strong, representative National Committee, with as many important public figures on it as possible. Then we must work out a oretty clear-cut scheme. Only then will it be of ^ _ very much use to approach the Government. In the meantime we C ) shall have to look elsewhere for financial support to meet our

^immediate expenses. One thing seems fairly certain, and that is that the Government do not seem to have in mind any further steps as far as the World Refugee Year is concerned. They might do more, but only by prodding - and the prodding will have to be done by some pretty big prodders*

I am forwarding copies of this letter to van Wykand Pols.

With kindest regards.Sincerely yours,

S. P. FREELAND.

*To the second meeting of the S.A. Interim Committee for World Refugee Year, to be held in Johannesburg on 19th December, 1959 at 10.00 a.m.

Ladies and Gentlemen,I have •undertaken to submit a draft constitution for the

National Committee for the consideration of your meeting. I would like to make it quite clear that it is only a very rough draft to be used as a basis for discussion in case no other draft is presented and that I am not of the opinion that the whole draft or any part should be accepted by your meeting. I do feel, however, that such a constitution should be prepared and submitted to the National Committee as soon as it is formed.

Your Joint-Secretary,

Dr. A.W. Blaxall, P.O. Box 672, JOHANNESBURG

Dear Dr. Blaxall,I have sent another letter to Mr. Charles te Water, and will

follow it up with a personal call. I believe he is rather hard of hearing which will make it rather difficult.

I have also written to Judge Maritz and enclose a copy of thisletter.

Dr. Nicol and Judge Centlivres have turned down the invitation. I hope to see Centlivres personally to change his mind but I doubt whether it will have any success.

I am glad that there is still a chance that I may attend the Geneva Conference but hope to know "yay or nay" soon so that I can arrange my plans accordingly.

If Sabena agrees have you made any arrangements for the Cape Town- Johannesburg part of the journey and the travelling, etc. in Europe?

Have arrangements been made to brief Mrs. Pampe and am I to send her any information? If so please give me her address.

I had the "pleasure" of meeting Mrs. Balser on Boxing Day and I am sorry that I cannot do anything for her but I do not think she could be of much help to the committee as she suggested.

Thank you for the cutting from the "Evening Post".

I have spoken to Archdeacon Wood who was most surprised that the Anglican Church was not represented at the conference although Dr. Reeves and Dr. de Blank had been formally invited.

Thank you very much for the minutes of the Committee Meeting of 19th December and compliment you on the amount of business transacted.

I have taken special note of the forming of the National Committee and will go flat out to enlist the required number as soon as possible.

Do you agree if I send a circular letter to all the addresses on the mailing list to ask for a personal contribution.

Yours very trul
