TWO RESIGNATIONS
AFRICAN PARLIAMENT
HERTZOG AND HAVENGA
(Received December 13, 2 p.m.)
JOHANNESBURG, Dec. 12. General Hertzog and Mr. Havenga have resigned from Parliament.
In a letter to their constituents they stated that they have resigned because of lack of confidence in them,
as revealed at the recent Free State and Transvaal congresses of the reunited Nationalist Party. The decisions of the conference, they declared, "prove that the party is on a course which is necessarily leading Afrikanderdom downward." They add that they will devote the remainder of their lives to loyal service to the people but outside party politics. -
