NAZI MOVEMENT
IN SOUTH-WEST AFRICA. A SENSATION CAUSED. PROHIBITION BY UNION. (United Press Association —By Electric Telegraph.—Copyright.) Received November 23, 10.0 a.m. CAPETOWN, Nov. 22. Sensational exposures relating to the Nazi movement in South-West Africa are made in an official statement issued by the Department of External Affairs. The statement says the Administration has had no other choice but to declare the National Socialist German Labour Party a prohibited association and order Major Weigel, the - leader of the party, to leave the country. The statement details the principles and regulations of the party and says “there is no scope, in the minds of members of the party and Germanspeaking inhabitants under their influence for loyalty to any authority or community other than the German nation—a* state of affairs the Union Government can only contemplate with alarm. If the object of the party were achieved, then the German State and Government would have at its disposal an organisation controlling the whole German-speaking population of SouthWest Africa. It is clear that the Union, as a mandatory authority, could not allow such an organisation of a foreign State in the mandated territory.”
