SOUTH AFRICA.
HUNDREDS O<P FAMILIES LEAVING. WARNING BY GENERAL BOTHA. (Received Last Night, 9.20 o'clock.) JOHANNESBURG, August 11. Hundreds of men with families are leaving for Australia, Canada, and Britain, fearing that bad times are coming. General Botha, the Prime Minister, met with a great reception at a party banquet at Johannesburg. He declared that South Africa was a young nation whose people must not walk about as revellers. "Mob law," he said, "cannot be allowed. If capital is frightened away, it will go badly with the labourers and the general community alike. Unless better relations are established between employers and employed, there will be no chance of avoiding a -recurrence of the recent trouble." General Botha indicated that the membership of the Cabinet would be increased, to enable the people to keep in closer touch with Ministers. 1
