IMMIGRATION PROBLEM.
AUSTRALIA DRAINING SOUTH AFRICA.
South Africa, like Canada, is being faced with the problem of emigration as well as immigration. In South Africa’s case it is not the United States, but another Dominion, which is draining her population. The Johannesburg Sunday Times declares the demand in South Africa for information concerning emigration to Australia has lately grown to an alarming extent. The paper says it does not know whether this eagerness to move on to another Dominion has been brought on hy the unpopularity of recent legislation in South Africa, or by Australia’s offer of vastly more attractive terms to settlers. Probably it is due to a combination of both reasons, hut it is a portent which the Union cannot afford to ignore. The time has arrived, adds the Times, when a determined effort must he made, with the twofold purpose of keeping the settlers already here, and of attracting as many new ones as possible.
