British Imperialism Dead, Says Smuts
Aberdeen, Sept. 16.
The Parls Conference was not all lost and a disap- pointment and friction, General Jan Smuts, Prime Minister of South Africa, said today. "There were some valuable deductions which one might draw, he said. We were forewarned and many illusions were being dispelled.

The world might have in the heart of Europe a centre of infection, which might sprend to the rest and which might mean a lowering of the stan- dards of living and the breed- ing of tempers which would work like poison in the heart of Europe..
General Smuts said that he read a couple of days ago that some person in America was accusing us of trying to shape the world on the lines of British Imperialism.
Non-Existent That gentleman was barking up the wrong tree. British Imperialism was dead. It died in the Boer War and had been non-existent since.
