Race Suicide Reduces
Native African Tribes
Special Corresponding.

special correspondence.
JOHANNESBURG, South Africa
(CDN).-Native tribes that we're
once powerful in Southwest Africa are
dying out and unless some means Of
stopping their race suicide can be
found they will be exterminated with
in comparatively short period.
Before the rebellion of 1904 the
Hereros we're one of the most powerful
tribes in the whole of Africa, and for
racial pride were not inferior even to
the Zulus. the greatest Of the Bantu
people. The German colonists could
not afford to take half measures when
the Hereros went into revolt, and the
power Of ths~tribe was broken ruth.
lessly and very thoroughly.
Like most African people, the He
reros have deteriorated with the dep
osition of old tribal rulers, but the
process of race suicide is not due to
this result of contact with civilization
but to the new customs that have
grown up to replace those imposed on
the people by the powerful chiefs of
pre-rebellion days.
1t was revealed at the inquiry now
being conducted by the government
Of the Union of South Africa into
conditions in the inundated territory
of Southwest Africa that one com.
paratively new tribal custom is fast
decimating not only the Hereros but
all other tribes except the Ovambos.
If a girl of IS or is Is about to
become a mother steps are taken, by
tribal order, to prevent the birth Of
the child. These steps are invariably
so drastic that even if the girl sur
wives, which is about a so per cent
chance, she is incapable of ever be-
coming a mother. AS a number of
girls so affected forms a majority in
most tribes, and as most Of these girls
would normally have five or six chill
dren (the infant mortality rate is
around about $40 to the 10000 the
process Of elimination is a rapid one.

Mauna Kea Quiet
For $4,000 Years

Mauna Kea, highest mountain peak
in Americas Hawaiian playground is
reaching respectable age. The
mountain has not had an eruption
for $4,000 years, according to the
Hawaiian Academy of Sciences expe-
dition which has made a thorough
study of the 13,s25-foot summit.
The last lava outburst on the noun

of glacial deposits, believed to have

And there are also the Carnival

that Carnival Clubs can have any i'm
portant bearing on industry, let me
hasten to explain that in Brazil they
most certainly can.
If you combine Christmas, Easter.
the Fourth of July, Labor day and
ArmiStice DAY in the United States
you would have something approach
ing carnival time in Brazilian cities.
In Pernambuco there are dozens of lit
tie clubs and societies organized not
only for raising money for costumes
and floats, but for the purpose of
practicing dances, pantomimes and
play1ets which they perform at Carni-
val time.
Il am taking q hand in the Carnival
Clubs. I have helped them organize a
federation Of the clubs, offering hand
some prizes for contests in dancing
and music. / contributed money for
their costumes and floats, helped them
to build club rooms and club houses.
I have even had posters printed and
sent all over the world advertising the
carnival.
"All this has cost quite a lot of
money" he went on. But after IL
months I am enthusiastic about the
results. Men work more regularly.
Work is more eficient. More impor-
tant still, there is a better spirit in
the organization"
Example Followed by Others.
Other industrial leaders, textile man.
ufacturers and even large agricul-
tural employers in Pernambuco were
beginning to follow this example. In
deed, this so-called experiment has
attracted attention throughout the
north of Brazil.
A Bahia mill owner was so i'm
pressed that he went home and at
tempted to go the Pernambuco expert
ment one better. In old Sac Salvador
he has built a miniature garden city
for laborers, with playground, SWIM
ming pool and movie theater. A band
plays in the plaza every evening.
To me the spread of so-called COM
munistic and Fascist doctrines are not
the only significant social develop
ments in Brazil today. The change
and attitude of the old conservative
industrialists and employers, the rapid
strides In improvement Of labor con-
ditions, of the relations between en-
ployer and employees, which the fear
Of communism may or may not have
inspired, are at least equally signifi-
cant
In q country where one clsss of peo-
pie, o conservative minority, ruled ex-
clusively in business and industry as
well as in politics from the founding
Of the republic until the present dec
ade, 1t is natural to find ferment of
criticism, Of protest and even Of wild
social ideas. In short, 1t would be sur
prising not to find radicalism and con-
servatism dressed up as communism
and fascism.
But with business and industry thor
oughly aroused as to possibilities and
eventualities, neither the Liberal Alli-
ance nor the Green Shirts is likely to
upset the Brazilian national household
to any serious extent.

RY GAST0N NERYAL.

- TX Lacin American republics will
commemorate next Tuesday the
105th anniversary Of the pass
- ing OF Simon Bolivar, the man
who made it possible for them to join
the community of independent and
sovereign states.
No exception to the rule, Bolivar
died, like many great men in history,
In tragic solitude, bitterly attacked by
his enemies and simost forgotten by
his friends 1t was only after the po-
litical effervescence of his day had
evaporated, and serenity and peace
had been restored, that Bolivar ap-
peared in all his greatness. as If
emerging triumphantly from the $ha-
dows in which human passion had
attempted to keep him shrouded.
Today, los years after "the Liberia
tor" downcast from watching the sell
fish rivalries of his contemporaries,
uttered his last words-"If my death
is going to bring about the union Of
my countrymen, will happily descend
to my grave"-a whole continent
praised his name and pays solemn
tribute TO his memory.
ROdO's Tribute Most Eloquent.
The merits and virtues of Simon
Bolivar have been immortalfzed by the
most gifted writer's and orators of
three generations, but none ever sur
passed the eloquence Of Jose Enrique
Rodo, the brilliant Uruguayan thinker,
when he said of Eel Libertador":
Great in thought, great in action,
great in glory, great in misfortune,
great enough to ennoble the base resi-
due which remains In the soul Of even
the great, and great in suffering, in
abandonment and death, the tragic
expiation Of greatness"
Bolivar has been hailed as a mill
tary genius. as political organizer of
extraordinary vision. as a statesman,
as the apostle and the man of action
working for a noble ideal. But the
South American emancipator Is sell
dom mentioned here as the true pio-
neer of pan-Americanism, the move
ment in which all the nations of the
Western Hemisphere are interested to-
day.
1t is with this aspect of his multi
form personality, as we have often
stressed in these columns, that people
in this country should particularly be
acquainted. Bolivar, the man of Wis
Ion who laid the foundations for a
genuine nism, becomes a
continental figure, and deserves as
much the admiration of Anglo Saxon
Americans as he does the gratitude
Of the Spanish-Americans he liber-
ated.
First TO Press for Union.
Bolivar may not have been the first
to speak Of continental union in the
New World, but he was the one who
spoke Of it most constantly and most
effectively, and the only one who
actually worked for it.
He is the one who inspired the indi-
vidual treaties Of alliance between sew
eral OF the Latin American nations
which preceded the collective attempt
at Panama in 1926. He is the one who
conceived, planned and carried out
the historic Congress of Panama,
where his genial dream of a united
America was put to test. He is the
ore who first advanced specific plans
for the setting up of q federation of
American republics.
Bolivars flight of thought knew no
limits. He first conceived the liber-
alton OF his native country, Venezuela.
He then widened its frontiers and.

the results if these percentages are
applied to the Roosevelt vote of a.

stronger in the South and Far West.
The large percentage Of people who

Meyer was well advertised when he
came to the senate. In 1881, as MEM

had ever before introduced. If he made
