BOERS SEEK TO RETURN
SETTLED IN ARGENTINA AFTER AFRICAN WAR DEPLORABLE POSITION Reed. 11 a.m. CAPETOWN, Sunday. Several hundred Boer families who settled in Argentina after the South African War are reported to be petitioning the Union Government to assist them to return here.
Their position is described as deplorable. They are most deeply in debt, possess no title deeds to their lands, and are badly hit by the low wool prices. The petition is likely to receive the sympathetic consideration of the Nationalist Government.
