SOUTH AFRICA E
 10 HAVE CHANGE

LONDON.-In the future history of South Africa, the Botha govern ment may be the longest rememb- cred as the author of the Natives Land Act" The measure is the greatest experiment that has ever been made in the administration of a mixed people.
 The Land Act Commission ap- pointed to review the division of land under the act between natives and whites, decided that the whites have been given an undue share The native population of the coun- try is about 3,5OO,O00 The lands set apart for natives under the act amounted to 4O,OOO,OOO acres out of 3OO,0OO,OOO. All the re- mainder was allotted to whi.e population of less than l.50O,0OO.
 As the object of the act was to provide for the development of the native peoples under suitable con ditions, the commission has decided that the natives must have larger share.
 It now remains for the SoutE African parliament to confirm the decision, after which various other reforms will be put into effect among them the creation of native councils, the substitution of a sys-

SLAv SLACKERS FEEL THE BOOT;
 CURE FOLLOWS

VLADIVOSTOCK.-The Ameri- can method of applying the boot" by a muscular attache of the Stew ems Railway commission recently put an end to Bolshevisk agitation among refugee charges If the American Red Cross in Iladi9os- tok, as related by Lieutenant M. F. Hall, chief of the local relief or ganization
 Among the five hundred men, women and children wl\ are being cared for in remodeled soldiers barracks in the outskirts of Vladi- vostok, there being fifteen who would not work.
 The physician in control of the barracks, Russian, complained to Lieutenant Hall that this coterie of young fellows was preaching Bol- !evism to the others and ur.sIrg them to defy the authority of those upon whom they were de- pendent on ths grounds that the business of the Red Cross was to look after them and that there was no need for them to work. The doctor was threatened with death if he interfered with their pro- gram.
 Things came to such pass that Lieutenant Hall asked for assist ance and Lieutenant Brunner vol unteered to take on the business of disciplining the disturbers. After dinner one evening Lieutenants Hall and Brunner and an inter- preter, George Fainstone, made an unexpected visit to the barracks. The inmates were all lined up and the doctor designated as ring leaders of the Bolshevik element a half dozen young and middle aged men. Lieutenant Brunner, who is big man with business-like air, threw off his coat and invited the Bolsheviks to take a good look at him and listen carefully to what he had to say.
 Most of the ''slackers' after hearing Brunner's harangue, which dealt with the general proposition of mo work no keep" and with de- tails of certain physical discom- forts to be expected by any ob- streperous ones, elected to become industrious. Two young fire-eaters attempted to barley. Brunner seiz- ed one of them by the coat lapels and shook him until his teeth chat tered, stopping at intervals long enough for the interpreter to trans late as near as possible into Rus. sian some forcible English. Then, in the words of Lieutenant Hall, Brunner put his foot behind him and out he went" The other "brave" asked for time to consult his wife and in five minutes re- I turned to announce that he would do anything required of him. He was assigned to scrubbing the stairs. Another disturber whose prac- tice was to come in late and get out early so as to avoid meeting those in authority, put in an ap- pearance as Hall and Brunner were about to depart. His record was well known to them and no time was wasted in giving him stout leather impetus outward.
 The following morning when Lieutenant Brunner reached the barracks, so Lieutenant Hall says, he was embarrassed by the numer- ous applications for tasks by the erstwhile agitators.

HUNS TRY TO ESCAPE
WHEN TOLD OF THEIR
RETURN TO GERMANY

SYDNEY, Australia, July H.
Several hundred Germans and Aus.
trians made an attempt to escape by
tunnelling from the Holdsworthy
concentration camp here recently in
order to foil the purpose Of the Aus
tralian authorities to send them back
to Germany and Austria.
The military authorities had prev
iously informed the interned Teutons
that they would soon be returned to
their native countries. Shortly before
they were to be taken out of the in
ternment camp the authorities dis
covered tunnel $50 feet long which
led from one of the barracks under
meath the fence enclosing the camp,
and thence to the surface outside,
The tunnel was the work of about
$50 men and apparently was begun
as soon as the prisoners received q
warning of intention to send them
home. They had planned to break
free from the camp on the night be
fore the sailing of the steamer foi
England.
Earth removed from the tunnel hac
been so distributed around the camT
that it was not noticed until the tun-
mel was almost completed. When the
tunnel was discovered the German:
made hostile demonstration but tho
guards promptly suppressed il. The
prisoners watched with chagrin the
filling in Of the tunnel.
