S. AFRICA PROSPEROUS
RECORD RAILWAY TRAFFIC CAPETOWN, Aug 3. Prosperity still shows no sign of turning its back on South Africa. Recent railway figures provide new evidence of improvement in trade conditions in the Union, and serve to dispel the fears entertained in some quarters that another slump is lurking round the corner.

Goods traffic during the first week of July was heavier than at any other peak period in the history of the Administration. —Cape Times.
