AFRIKANER PRAISED
Hertzog Finds Role (N.Z.P. A. -Reuter —Copyright) JOHANNESBURG, Jan 29. Dr Albert Hertzog, the extreme Right-wing Opposition leader, has said that were it riot for the Afrikaner, the English-speaking people would have been chased out of South Africa long ago. “If the future of South Africa depended on the Eng-lish-speaking people, you would have been chased out of South Africa long ago, as has happened to the English in the rest of Africa,” he told a Presbyterian minister at a public meeting on Tuesday night. The minister, the Rev. Graham Brayshaw, was cheered at the meeting at Witbank, about 100 miles east of Johannesburg, when he accused Dr Hertzog of spreading “prejudice and hatred.” Dr Hertzog said: “We have nothing against our Englishspeaking friends, but we know their weaknesses.” The weakness of the English was their permissiveness, he said.
