Will South Africa Go Fascist?

Porter, John | November 6, 1948 issue

This article focuses on the policy of racial discrimination followed in South Africa. For the first time in 1910, a Cabinet was installed in South Africa under the leadership of Dr. D. F. Malan which included not a single minister of English descent. It is in the sphere of race relations that Dr. Malan's government has shown its hand unmistakably. In Cape Town, the oldest of the four provinces, African men with the necessary qualifications elect three white members to the House of Assembly, which has 153 members. If the government gets a loan, Dr. Malan will not need for some time to do anything drastic enough to disturb relations between English and Afrikaners or between Gentiles and Jews.
