Letters, cuttings and statements in the wake of Helen Suzman and Peter Soal visit to detainees in Johannesburg Prison and subsequent disagreements with the DPSC; also a transcript of the Helen Suzman side of a telephone conversation with Minister Louis Le Grange [prior to 07/10/85] and a letter dated 07/10/85 which places the conversation on record; however, at the end of the transcript there is a paragraph about Angola: "Now listen, are we going to end up with a war with Angola, with the Russians? ... You think it's over ... Hell, it didn't sound like it on this morning's news .... God, well listen Louis, we must get out of there, it's really dangerous ... we'll be embroiled in a full-scale war, a hot war, not a cold war ... Yes, but your northern border, my dear, is not inside Angola..."; also some rough notes taken by Helen Suzman during a visit which mention on page 2 Ismail Momoniat, Amos Masondo, Cass Coovadia, Neil Coleman, Maurice Smithers, Auret van Heerden, Paul Maseko, "Abe Moyopa, 13 yrs.", Grace Mapule, Constance Hlatshwayo and Mary Ntingane.
