RACIAL PROBLEM.
MEETING IN JOHANNES ITURGTI
A crowded lunch-hour meeting at Johannesburg!! recently expressed its determination to use every lawful means to ensuro that South Africans would remain and be known as British subjects. The Dean of Johannesburgli (Rt. Rev. W. A. Palma) issued a warning that racial peace could be assured qnly by determination of the races to honour each other’s loyalties. He said he would welcome a designation describing South African citizenship, but he would resist to the uttermost any “tinkering” with the designation “Biitish subject.” The Mayor of Capetown refused to call a similar meeting, as he considered it was likely to inflame public opinion.
