Pirow To Discuss Nazi Demands In S.W. Africa
Berlin, To-day. The impending visit to Germany of Mr. Pirow, the South African Minister of Defence, is promin- ently featured in the Berlin newspapers. Ex- tending the welcome to the Minister much is made of the fact that he comes of German stock. "Angriff" points out that contrary to reports circu-
lated abroad, the main object of his visit is to discuss economic matters and such mat- ters as lie within the orbit of his plans for strengthening the defences of South Africa.
