Natives Need Their Own Quarters,

Langa-as the new village la called is the outcome of a cour ageons and enlightened policy on the part of the Cape Town City Council, but impetus has undoubt edly been given to the scheme by the fact that the large numbers of male natives now housed in the town or drifting about have long constituted a potential menace to the civilized community. The town- lip will include churches, & pub- lie swimming bath, p school, a com munity hall, a bioscope, a refresh. ment room, a big recreation ground, hostels for single native men, and women, and houses, with gardens for married couples."

G. P. Cook, who has been ap pointed superintendent of the

township, comes to the Cape with A fine record from Bloemfontein, where for over 10 years he super- vised what is considered to be a model location.

The Rant Question..

The one weak spot in the scheme, as at present laid down, is that the rents will probably be more than the average native can reason ahly afford to pay. To a nativi

earning £1 or 5s, a week 7 is' a large amount to pay for a couple of rooms for his family, especially as he will have to provide his traîn fare to and from the city" every day. There is some agitation at the moment for a reduction of these rents and no doubt the City Coun eil, which has taken so much care with the planning and building of this township and has pushed for- ward with the scheme in the face of no little opposition, will not allow the whole project to be ea- dangered by the rent question.
