HERTZOG GOVERNMENT
COLLAPSE FORESHADOWED.
JUDGE ROOS’ RETURN TO POLITICS. (Received 22, 12.10 p.m.) Capetown, Dec. 21. The collapse of the Hertzog Government is foreshadowed by the return to politics of Judge Tjelman Roos, who was Minister of Justice in the first Nationalist Government but resigned owing tp ill-health. He was subsequently appointed to the Appeal Court. The country was startled a few days ago when Mr Roos, addressing his former constituents, denounced racialism. He has now announced his resignation from the Bench and hopes to form a coalition.
A no-confidence motion by the Nationalists is anticipated to be carried by Parliament when it meets on January 20.
