THERE is A RACE PROBLEM In
AFRICA ALSO.

Washington, D. c., Dec. 25.zAc-
cording to the Washington Post, "The
United States of South Africa ap-
pears to be having a race problem
of its own. There is in effect in
that country system of color bar
legislation of which the natives are
barred by law from membership
rights in the Dutch Reform Church
and from employment in skilled work
in the Industrial areas. They claim
that they deserve better treatment,
for they sent to the actual front in
the world war $4,000 men Of whom
the high proportion of 10000, or
42.5 per cent, were killed and, as
an additional grievance. are buried
in places absolutely inaccessible to
their relatives.
1T is well known that the South
African act of 1909, which created
the Union, was framed and passed
by the British government without
any reference to the natives, except
those of the Cape Province; but the
measure which is the cause of the
sorest smart of all is the Native Land
act of 1913, passed by the Union
parliament. Under this act, which
the natives stigmatize as class legis-
lation of the worst type and as tend
| ing either to make them slaves or
to kill them off, IL per cent of the
land was set aside for the 100000
blacks and 88 per cent of the land
was set aside for the 100000 whites.
! The portion allotted to the blacks was
mainly composed of rocky and ma
larial soil and congested tribal To-
| calities held under old grants. The
result was that many blacks who
had been Industrious agriculturists,
were driven off the lands which they
formerly held and titled, and died
by hundreds from privation. Many of
the survivors, finding it impossible
| to live, cleared out of the Union
country altogether and fled to other
British protectorates.
These grievances spokesman of
| the natives have taken to London
and presented to the foreign and
colonial subcommittee. Their claim
is that their allegiance is due not
to the Beers, but to the British king
and nation they accordingly ap-
and nation they accordinginly ap-
peal for redress. 1t appears that
government of the South African
Union is at present demanding the
inclusion of more protectorates I'M
der its sway, and the oppressed ma
tives, with considerable political acu-
men, have seized the opportunity to
oppose the grant of this demand I'M
| til what they consider elementary
! justice is done to themselves.
THE problem is a perplexing one,
and it will tax the ingenuity of the
home government to solve it in a
manner satisfactory to all concern
ed"
1t is stated on good authority that
the time is not far distant when a
gigantic Union" of all the darker
peoples of the entire world will be
established for self-protection. Ameri-
can Negroes are much interested in
the plan.
