AFRICAN FLAG DEBATE UPROAR IN ASSEMBLY By Cable.—Press Association.—Copyright CAPETOWN, Wednesday. The sixth day of the Flag debate in the Legislative Assembly was marked by considerable uproar owing to a strong speech by a Labour member professing to speak for the English-speaking South Africans. This member declared that Opposition members were ready to talk but not to fight for the Union Jack. When accused by an Opposition member with being an Irish Sinn Feiner, one Labourite declared: “I will oppose the Bill.” The rest of the Labour members are pledged to vote for the second reading.—A. and N.Z.-Sun.
