AFRICAN ELECTIONS
FINAL ANALYSIS OF VOTING A PARADOXICAL POSITION Reed. 9 a.m. CAPETOWN, Tuesday. A final analysis of the voting shows that the Nationalists secured 77 seats with 148,000 votes, the South African Party 61 seats, with 178,000 votes, and Labouh 8 seats with 35,000 votes. It is remarkable that though the South Africans lost a number of seats in the Transvaal and Cape rural areas, their rural voting strength, is still very substantial.
