GERMAN SOUTH-WEST AFRICA
FUTURE FORM OF GOVERNMENT
8v Tele^inph—Press Association Copyrigh' Australian ana N.Z. Table Association Rec April 21, morning Capetown, xVpril 19
The report of the commission which inquired into the question, of the future form of Government for the late German possessions in South-West Africa, recommends, first, the establishment of a temporary advisory council, and afterwards that they be granted full representation as a province of the South African Union, but not until the population includes ten thousand British subjects of European descent. The opinion is expressed that any intermediate form of Government would foster the aspirations entertained by the German population ol developing into a State independent of the Union. The report recommends every German adult male to be proclaimed a British subject unless within a year he declines to accept citizenship.
