LONDON, 17th June.
The "Morning Post's" Berlia correspondent says there is curiously little comment oii the South African elections, . ■ ■- • - ; '.',-•••' .. ■ i '■'.■■■
The "Koelaiisehe Zeitung" says:— "The results show that the efforts of South Africa towards . independence/ and even complete separation, are consolidating. So far as we Germans are concerned we would Jike to address a request to General Hertzog. If he looks back a couple of decades he will recall the bitterness of his countrymen ■ against the victorious English, and vhe will recall that the .sympathies of the Germans were largely with the Boers. We hope : General Hertzog will l?eep these things in : mind when delegations from South-West Africa meet him, »nd! that he will show them the same sympathy his countrymen received from the, Germans' in .South Africa's hour of need."' :
