GERMAN GOODS
SOUTH AFRICAN BOYCOTT
GOVERNMENT'S WARNING CAPETOWN, June 20 A boycott of German goods is being conducted, particularly by trades unions, and the Government is threatening. to take action unless it is discontinued. The Johannesburg Town Council referred back to its finance committee a recommendation to accept a German tender. The Jewish ex-Mayor referred to "the savage state of affairs prevailing in Germany," and objected to the purchase of even one farthing's worth from Germany. The boycott is nullifying the agreement under which Germany is entitled to credit for £2,750,000 for raw materials, provided this credit is balanced by imports.
