LONDON, Dec 12—Dr. Malan's policy it racial discrimination was condemned by Lady Violet BonhamCarter at a meeting of the council ot the Liberal Party in London. She said Dr. Malan was sowing the seeds of doom in a country where there were only two million whites and nine million people of other races. A minority might be suppressed for a time, she said, but it was not possible to suppress and oppress indefinitely a vast majority. She moved ■That this council views with deep regret the policy of racial discriminatin in Soutn Africa, and takes on record its conviction that so long as such a policy continues the British Government should on no account accede to any request put forward by the South African Government for the transfer to South African rule of the High Commission territories of Basutoland, Swaziland, and Bechuaiialand.”
