Abstract
This paper quotes some cases in which the African finds difficulty in comprehending the European attitude, particularly in the matter of land rights. In the absence of adequate or logical explanation, (if in fact such exists) it is inevitable that misunderstandings breed suspicion. This is not a problem confined to Tanganyika, nor to Africa. Nor is it an inevitable concomitant of culture contact and the development of backward peoples, as cases are cited to show. The dispersal of this suspicion should be regarded as a major problem, besides which the short-term advantages accruing from a course of action, which may engender suspicion shrink: into insignificance. The prolonged existence of a multi-racial society depends on the early discovery of a solution
