...most hated man in Africa stepped down from his pedestal last week. At 80, South Africa's Daniel Malan, the grim old Christian preacher who built the word apartheid (apartness) into the symbol of unchristian racial intolerance, summoned his Nationalist Cabinet and announced that he was quitting as Prime Minister.

...disposal problem, for it is against the law in South Africa to burn wastepaper, and-until the government makes a ruling on their status-most South African trash collectors are refusing to pick up the hot books. The only thoroughly safe bestseller in South Africa these days is Malan's own Government Gazette, which each month publishes a list of as many as 50 newly banned books...
