Since Rhodesia unilaterally seized Independence in novem Ber 1965, Britain has maintained what it terms a residual Mission in the territory. The Mission has a British based staff of 12 plus 25 locally employed assistants. Rhodesia has maintained a Mission in London of roughly the same size. The missions have served As a conduit for messages to a territory bound to Britain through a tenuous thread of legality embodied by the Gover nor. S i r Humphrey Gibbs. Though he has lived in isolation in his official residence the 67 year old governor has played a vital part in attempting to bring the two governments together. Sir Humphrey was warmly praised by the foreign Secre tary who said he hoped that before Long the governor and lady Gibbs will come to Britain to take leave of Queen Elizabeth ii in person. A period of three weeks has been set for closure of missions on either sides and after that time Britain will have to rely on informal and indirect Means of Contact.
