ANXIETY IN AFRICA
OVER GERMAN COLONIAL AMBITIONS OPINION IN THE UNION ALL PARTY MEETING URGED By Telegraph—Press Association—Copyright. CAPE TOWN, October 11. Agitation against the return of SouthWest Africa to Germany is growing in all parts of the Union, despite the absence of even a semi-official German statement that Herr Hitler will demand the territory. Colonel Molyneaux, leader of the United Party, is urging an all-party meeting to show that the Union is unanimous against return. Major Van Zyl, the veteran Cape leader of the United Party, says that he is not prepared to say that none of the German colonies should be returned, but it would be fatal to the Union to return either South-West Africa qr Tanganyika, where the majority of the inhabitants are Union nationals. It is understood that the Union Government’s attitude is unchanged—namely, never to agree to the surrender of South-West Africa or Tanganyika—but it is not opposed to a general agreement for meeting the German colonial claims elsewhere in Africa.
