The South African Native AffairsCommissiou estimates the shortage of native labour at 307,528, and recommends a form of taxation, the prevention of squatting, delimination of a final area for reserves, and separate native constituencies for each State. London, February 10. The Johannesburg correspondent of the “Times ” says that a more thorough-going scheme for giving immediate choice between tribal conditions and life under European influences would lead to many natives accepting European conditions, and with them the necessity for earning a living.
