Tor a republlc-849,9 ,958 votes to
775,978.
Long before, however, South
Africans had accepted the
word of an electric computer
that the pro-republic forces of
nationalist Prime Minister r
Hendrix Verwoerd had won.
The computer had forecast a
Republican majority of close to
10000 even while the anti-re-
publicans were still ahead in
early returns.
The republic is expected to be
proclaimed early next year
after Mr.. Verwoerd presents to
the nationalist dominated
parliament legislation making
q president the chief of state
instead of Britain's Queen
Elizabeth II.
The method of choosing the
president has not yet been de-
cided but it seems likely the
new Republican constitution
will provide that he be elected
by Parliament and have only
the status of a ceremonial head
of state without political power.
Swart Obvious Choice
The present governor gen.
eral, Charles r. Swart, and
Finance Minister Theophilus E.
DongeS were regarded as the
two strongest possibilities for
President.
Mr.. Swart, 65, a former
journalist and movie extra in
the United States who as a
child was a prisoner in a Brit
ish concentration camp at the
end of the Boer War, would be
an obvious choice. He entered
Parliament at the age of "a

minister for II years be-
fore he was appointed governor
general.
He may prefer to retire to
private life, however. If he
does, informed political sources
said, Mr.. Donges wuold be the
leading possibility.
Mr.. Donges, So, has a reputa-
ton as one of the moderate
and level-headed members of
the cabinet. A man with a
silver tongue who got his law
degree at the University of
London, he might allay some
of the fears of British-de-
scended South Africans who
bitterly fought the republic.
The descendants of British
settlers charged that in a re-
public they would become Sec
ond-class citizens under a die
tatorship of the Dutch-bor
