- LONDON, Nov. 19.-Colouial Secre-
tary Chamberlain received great ova-
tion last night at Birmingham, where
a farewell banquet on the occasion of
his departure !Jr South Africa was
held in his hcEoT. Members of all par
ties joined in the demonstration, as the
affair was of n nonpolitical character.
Mr. Chamberlain was accompanied by
his wife and his son, Austen Chamber
lain.
Responding to tremendously enthu-
slastlc welcome, the colonial secretary
paid an affectionate tribute to his
American wife, who, he declared, had
sustained him by her course and
cheercd him by her sympathy. He
had found in her his best and truest
counselor. Referring to his approach
Ing trip, he said it was to be a matter
Of business and not mere parade. He
could rot expect that all the bitterness
in South Africa would die out, but he
could say this for the government
that they would relieve all suffering.
He was bound on new venture, and
there was q possibility Of failure. The
governments $ desire was to make South
Africa one united natlon--llnited in
heart as well as in name. Greater diff
ferences, he said, had been healed, and
he mentioned Canada as an instance in
this connection.
He took very optimistic view re-
gardins the future OF South Africa.
On the conclusion Of Mr.. Chamber
lain's speech q torchlight procession
and fireworks display were held.

Frank Sargent Of the Brotherhood of

the organizations over which these
men presided had, while listening to
the advice of their leaders, refused to
lend helping hand to the Amalga-
mated association and had even fought
against 1t In the dark.
