Summary: How about some constructive suggestions?

I doubt (from your tone) that we agree on much re. South Africa,
but I'll give you credit for an interesting analysis.  If you've
described accurately the bind in which the Botha government finds
itself, then what would you suggest that Botha do in order to
assuage the Afrikaaners if he comes to accept the idea of power
sharing with blacks--even to the extent of "one man, one vote."
  I am serious in this request.  If the anti-South Africa groups
in this country can be more effective, I would like to know how
they might change their tactics.  Not just "don't press for dis-
investment," but positive suggestions that we can press on the
Reagan administration to in turn push on Botha.
  Looking forward to your reply.
