CAPE TOWN, July 15. (Received July 17, at 9.35 a.m.)
Colonel Cresswell took his seat in tho Assembly as leader of the Labor Party. Tho Senate, by 20 votes to 9, rejected Mr Reitz’s motion, arising out of recent adverse comment regarding birthday honors. Tho motion provided that in future the Government should neither recommend, consent to, nor recognise titles of whatever sort bestowed from outside on citizens of tho South African Union.
Tho Minister of Justice (Hon. N. Do Wot) said that if the motion had been confined to hereditary titles ho would havo been inclined to accept it, but not in its present form.—A. and N.Z. Cable.
