	A black journalist recently returning from a visit to South Africa told me of American industries there who were showing the way in hiring practices and even in providing employee housing. He said that black employees of American firms said it would be terribly hurtful to South African blacks if the American firms were forced to close up shop.		A black journalist recently returning from a visit to South Africa told me of American industries there who were showing the way in hiring practices and even in providing employee housing. He said that black employees of American firms said it would be terribly hurtful to South African blacks if the American firms were forced to close up shop.

	The other day, I came across an item that shows how ridiculous people can be when motivated by prejudice. It seems that the lady in charge of the American Peace Corps is so bitter about South Africa and its policies that she won't allow any Peace Corps volunteers to serve in that country. It does seem as though she's making a policy determination that is or should be beyond her authority, but never mind that. Recently two young volunteers serving in Botswana, which borders on South Africa came down with back ailments. They were not allowed to seek treatment in a nearby South African hospital. Madame director had them flown to Frankfurt, Germany. That's a 14-hour flight, one way. As one of the young men said, he flew 14 hours, waited another 4 and a half hours to spend 20 minutes with a doctor, then flew 14 hours back.

	and here's the tagline: Madam director who wouldn't allow treatment in a South African hospital, sent them to Germany on a plane of South African Airways. Cost three thousand dollars.
