INDIANS IN SOUTH AFRICA.

THURSDAY, APRIL 19, 1923.

Capetown. April 18.

The Assembly debated a motion by the Ministerialis; Mc- Keurtan, urging segregation of Asiatics. The opinion was expressed that only thereby could Indians obtain citizen rights.

The Labourite Strachan moved an' amendment providing for equal pay for equal work, and demanding a more vigorous repatria- tion policy.

Mr. Duncan, Minister of the Interior, emphasised the impos- sibility of dealing with the delicate problem without considering outside interests. He declared that other Asiaties, besides,Indians were watching the problem. He pointed out that the majority of the Indians in South Africa were born there and cannot be emi- grated wholesale. He doubted whether segregation in urban areas would solve the problem, but he proposed to introduše a measure

The debate was adjourned and is unlikely to be resumed.

Lord Wintertow said that on Lord Peel's direction, be, Sir Cyril Cobb, Lord Ednam and Captain Seagrave were inspecting the establishments a; London and other seaports where Asiatic seamen' were temporarily lodged.

THE BUDGET DEBATE.

London, April 17.

Two ex-Chancellors. Mr. Asquith and Sir Robert Horze. successively spoke in the resumed Budget debate in the House of Commons. Both in the main approved Mr. Baldwin's proposals. It is obvious that claims for relief for sugar will become the central point of the controversy.

Mr. Asquith joined issue with the Labourites as regards the Income Tax, declaring that even four shillings in the pound is a bad and pernicions form of capital levy. The tax had dried up the stream fertilising the whole field of industry and employment. He denied it was a class question.

THE IRISH CAPTURES.

London, April 18. The well-known Irregular Dan Breen has been captured in a dugout near Limerick.

Later.

The Free State trops yesterday surprised Breen in a dugout. He was partly dressed, and was secured before he was, able to resist.
