NO TRANSFERENCE OF RBITISH TERRITORY
VIEWS OF THE GOVERNMENT REFERENCE TO SOUTH AFRICA lU.P.A.—By Electric Telegraph—Copyright’ LONDON, 26th November. The Under-Secretary for the Colonies, the Marquess of Dufferin j and Ava, in a speech in Oxford on j the colonial question, said the Government was not contemplating the transference of any British territory. It was fallacious for Germany to say that the return of her colonies would be economically valuable to her, because they could not supply any of her basic needs. “In any case,” he added, “it is quite unthinkable that any of her I former colonies should be returned I to Germany under conditions likely to reproduce in Africa the conditions at present prevailing in Europe. “We cannot have Africa converted into an armed camp.”
