This week's cover story was written by another TIME military buff, Associate Editor Burton Pines, who received vital logistical support from Reporter-Researchers Betty Satterwhite Sutler and Beth Meyer. To keep abreast of new developments, Pines and Sutter, who have collaborated on most of TIME's defense stories over the past few years, regularly read, clip and stockpile a remarkable variety of military periodicals.

But this does not mean we want to rob the white settlers of their land. The whites are an essential part of the country and therefore they must have some land as citizens. Only that land that is not fully utilized will be made available to other people. This arrangement would affect perhaps half of the white-controlled land. Private ownership is a foreign ideology...
