COMRADESHIP.
LORD HAIG’S MISSION. WELCOMED IN SOUTH AFRICA. By Telegraph.—Press Assn.—Copyright. Capetown, Feb. 21. Lord Haig, accompanied by twenty ox-servicemen’s delegates, representing Britain, Australia, New Zealand and Canada have arrived, and were accorded an enthusiastic civic welcome. Lord Haig, in a speech, said the conference he had come to attend aimed at linking up all ex-servicemen throughout the Empire and preserving the spirit of comradeship evolved in the great war, so that the benefits for which they strove in war would not be thrown away. After paying a tribute to the services of the South Africans in the war, Lord Haig said it was singularly fitting that the important conference of ex-servicemen should be held in South Africa, where twenty years ago men from the Overseas Dominions gava the first great proof of the abiding solidity of the British Commonwealth of nations.—Reuter.
