SOUTH AFRICAN PARTY.
REFERENCE TO STATUS QUESTION STATEMENT BY GENERAL SMUTS Received December 9, 11.15 a.m. CAPETOWN, Dec. 8. Addressing the South African Party Provincial Congress at Pretoria, General J. C. Smuts made the first reference to the status question since Dr Roos’s repudiation of secession. He said that the work of the South African Party was now crowned with success. The decisions of the Imperial Conference and General Hertzog’s whole-hearted acceptance of them completely justified the South African Party’s action. He maintained, however, that there was no material change in principle from the position defined at the Imperial Conference three years ago, when the right of treaty making was freely conceded the Dominions. What changes were made were of minor importance. He hoped now that they were finished with secession for ever.— A. and N.Z. cable.
