SOUTH AFRICAN ELECTIONS
TEN OF NEW PARTY RETURNED UNOPPOSED. (Rec. January 16, midnight.) Cape Town, January 15. Nominations in connection with the impending general elections have resulted in thirteen being returned unopposed, including ten of the new South African Party candidates, of whom one formerly was Labour, one Independent, and four Unionists. Mr. Merriman and General Hertzog had no opposition. Many threecornered contests between the South African Party, the Nationalists and Labour will be fought.
General Hertzog, replying to a question at a campaign meeting, whether the Opposition leaders should, attend the Imperial Conference, declared that if invited he would attend out of courtesy, but would not participate in the deliberations. The Nationalists have nothing •to do with Imperial closer union, nor do they admit the right of such a conference to bind them. —Aus.-N.Z. Cable Assn.
