House in Committee:
[Progress reported on 12th April, when Vote No. 12,—“Inland Revenue”, £375,000, was under consideration; Vote No. 9 was standing over.]
Mr. Chairman, before you put the first question to the House, and before Government business is resumed today, I would like to ask, through you, whether the Leader of the House has been informed of the fact that the President of the United States has passed away.
Order. That has nothing to do with the vote before the Committee.
I know it has nothing to do with the vote, but I would like to know whether the matter is being raised.
I am sorry that I cannot allow the matter to be raised now.
When the House adjourned, I was drawing attention to the position in Pretoria in connection with the office of the Receiver of Revenue. I was pointing out that the Receiver of Revenue did not always show sufficient consideration. I mentioned the case of a boarding house owner whose tax was reduced from £400 to £40 after he had been involved in a court case costing him £70. All we ask in this connection is that the Receiver of Revenue should act a little more carefully. We appreciate that he is working under difficult circumstances and we do not want to blame this official, but cases should not lightly be forced into court, and every person ought to have a reasonable opportunity to explain his case to the Receiver of Revenue. In connection with the same case, I want to point out that the court gave judgment in November of last year, and in about January or February this person received a new assessment, but at the same time he was notified that he had to pay interest as from the day of the judgment by the court until such time as the Receiver of Revenue sent out the new assessment. In other words, he is punished for negligence on the part of the Receiver of Revenue. The excuse was that they did not have the necessary officials to send out the assessment form immediately, but it seems unreasonable that a person should be punished in such a case because of the difficulties experienced by the department. This is a matter which the Minister should take into review too. I was asked to bring this case to the notice of the Minister officially. We appreciate the difficulties of the office of the Receiver of Revenue in Pretoria. That office established a very high tradition in the past in connection with these matters, and as far as possible they came to the assistance of the people, and we should like to see this high tradition maintained.
I am very pleased that the hon. member referred to the high tradition of the office of the Receiver of Revenue in Pretoria. I agree with him that we are anxious to maintain that tradition. The hon. member mentioned certain individual cases. It is always difficult to deal with individual cases on the floor of the House. However, I think I know to which case he refers. With regard to the boarding house, the position is that I cannot see how in the light of the available facts the Receiver of Revenue could have acted differently. But when the case was brought before the special court, a balance sheet was submitted, I think for 1939, which threw a different light on the position. If that balance sheet had been available earlier, the matter would have taken a completely different course, but in the light of the information available to the officials, they could not act differently.
Vote put and agreed to.
On Vote No. 13.—“Customs and Excise”, £440,000,
I should like to bring to the notice of the Minister in connection with this vote a matter which I think is fairly important. As you know, the various branches of Customs and Excise fall under one department with one head. When Union was established it was possibly a convenient arrangement because in respect of ten months in 1910-T1—that is the only period in respect of which I can get data— Excise only yielded £160,000 while in 1911-T2 the Excise on spirits and wine yielded only £190,000. Tobacco and cigarettes yielded nothing in 1911 and only £170,000 in 1911-T2. At that time the Customs section of the department was, of course, very much more important than the Excise section. I think the wine merchants and the wine farmers are very grateful for the kindly way in which the Excise Department has helped them. Whenever it is possible to do something for them, it is done. We feel that the separation of these two departments is of importance to the country. We cannot get away from the fact that he Excise officials feel that they constitute the Cinderella department of the~ Government. The present position is that notwithstanding the fact that the Excise on spirits and wine (for 1944) yielded £4,200,000 and cigarettes and tobacco £7,200,000, i.e. £12,000,000 in round figures, from which it appears that this Department is today the most important section of the Customs and Excise Department, it is felt that that Department is being neglected. The clerks in the Excise Department feel that justice will never be done to them as long as the two Departments are under one head, and I think the Minister will agree with me. At the moment the first eight clerks at the head of the Department are Customs officials, people who had their training and experience in the Deparemtn of Customs. In other words, the most highly placed clerks in the Department are all Customs officials and only the ninth man on the list is an Excise official. The Minister will agree with me that the work in the Excise Department is of a specialised nature, and today we find that people are being transferred from one department to the other. It recently happened that a clerk of the Customs Department—I believe it was a first grade clerk— was taken from the Customs Department in Port Elizabeth and transferred to Worcester. This man had no knowledge at all of Excise affairs. As a matter of fact, he did not even know the difference between a “proof gallon” and a “bulk gallon” of spirits. He had to start learning from the very beginning. As a result of that state of affairs there is a great deal of dissatisfaction amongst the clerks of the Excise Department, and they leave the service when they can get a position outside. I know of one case where the parents of a youth asked me to urge the boy to remain in the department and not to go to a wine merchant. I made a point of seeing him and he told me that he had considered the whole position, that it was true that a Government position was more stable than a position with a private business, but that he had come to the conclusion that there was no future for him as a clerk in the department. These people are leaving the service and entering the employ of private liquor companies, and the Department consequently suffers. Eventually the Department will be saddled with clerks who are not worth much in the Excise division, and I think this is a serious matter. I saw the head of the Department, and I should like to help where I can, because we would like to see that there is satisfaction in the Department and that justice is done. The Minister will remember the report of the Graham Commission. That Commission made investigations in connection with the Civil Service in 1920. Today the position is just the same except that the Excise division has become much more important than it was in 1920. The amount collected on spirits was £700,000 in 1920 and £300,000 on tobacco, and today approximately £12,000,000 is being collected as far as these two items are concerned. The circumstances have become much worse therefore. When we read a few paragraphs in the Graham Report, we see what the position is. That Commission decided, and it was recommended in the report, that these two Departments should be separated. I feel that the conditions at the time when that report was drawn up were the same as the present conditions, except that the present conditions are much worse. A Public Service Enquiry Commission is sitting at the moment, and I should like the Minister of Finance to make arrangements to submit the view of the Graham Commission to that Commission of Enquiry, and to ask the Commission to obtain evidence on this point, but not only from people who are in the service of the Excise Department at the moment. They are afraid of victimisation. I spoke to one of these men, and he simply would not discuss the position with me. I asked him why he refused to do so. His reply was that he was a married man with children and that he was afraid that he might get into trouble if he said anything. That is the spirit which prevails amongst these officials. I cannot complain about the office of the Department in my constituency. The Department has augmented the staff and greater facilities have been granted. But the principle is that these two Departments ought to be separated. A number of the heads of the Excise Department have retired, and I wonder whether the Minister cannot ask them to give evidence before the Commission of Enquiry. I am thinking of men like Mr. Harvey, Mr. Chaplin, Mr. Jones, Mr. Murdock, Mr. Broadhurst, Mr. Shaw and others. These men could give evidence before the Commission, and the report of the Graham Commission could also be referred to the present Commission together with the statements made before the Graham Commission, because, as I have said, the conditions at that time were the same as the present conditions. The only difference is that the position is more acute today. Even where we have heads of the Department of Excise, it does not mean to say that they know a great deal about Excise. A bare knowledge of the law is not sufficient. [Time limit.]
My hon. friend raised the question of the possible separation of the Excise Department from the Department of Customs and Excise, so that it will become a separate Department. He was quite correct in saying that a recommendation to that effect was made by a previous commission. In saying that it is a matter which falls under the present Public Service Commission of Enquiry, the Centlivres Commission, I also agree with him. The points he raised are points which fall within the scone of this commission. I would be quite prepared to draw the attention of the commission to the fact that this matter has been raised in Parliament, and the chairman of the commission can then take any steps which he may deem fit. In the meantime I cannot take the matter any further. The hon. member is also correct in saying that the receipts from Excise sources have increased very considerably in comparison with the receipts from Customs sources. The receipts from Customs sources have declined, especially during the war period, while the receipts from Excise sources have risen. It may be that the tendency will be in the other direction in the post-war period, that the receipts from Customs sources will rise after the war. Whether the receipts from Excise sources will drop is a matter in regard to which I do not want to express an opinion at this stage. I think my hon. friend will be prepared to leave the matter there. I shall bring it to the notice of the chairman of the commission.
There is just one further point. Will the Minister give an opportunity to retired officials to give evidence before the commission? He could select a few of the former heads and a few of the present heads. If the Department approaches the heads at places like Worcester and elsewhere, they will feel at liberty to give evidence. At the moment these officials are afraid. They say that they were told not to say anything about the separation of the two departments, and for that reason they are afraid to speak. But if the Department invited those people to give evidence, they would be obliged to do so and to say what they know and what their views are in regard to this matter. I am very pleased that the Minister is of the opinion that this matter can be submitted to the present commission. I hope that some solution will be found which will satisfy these people. We have already had scandals in connection with the liquor trade, and on the other hand we know that the Government wrongly withheld £100,000 from the K.W.V. We are afraid of a repetition of that type of thing. This is a very important Department We were refunded £100,000, but how do we know that it was not £1,000,000 that we had to get back? The officials feel that if they are consulted in connection with the affairs of the Department, there will be fewer difficulties, because they know the practical side of the work. The Minister must remember that the official in the Excise Department who receives a salary of £25 to £40 per month, must pit his brains against people in the employ of the merchants who get £100 and £200 per month. It is very easy to defraud the Revenue authorities in connection with Excise. The Excise on brandy is 25s., and if a few gallons are removed, it means a good few pounds. This matter may lead to great difficulties. When Excise was imposed on wine, things were very muddled in the beginning. If the officials had been consulted, there would have been no difficulties. I can tell the Minister that I am not putting forward this case merely for the sake of hearing my voice, but because I feel that it concerns an industry which is rendering a great service to the State and which is paying large sums to the State, and that industry has the right to feel that its position is secure. If there is dissatisfaction amongst the staff, we cannot get the quality of work which we will get if there is satisfaction.
Vote put and agreed to.
On Vote No. 14—“Audit", £170,000,
I just want to put a few questions to the Minister. Last year complaints were made that the staff of the Auditor-General was too small and that it was impossible for him to carry out all the work entrusted to him. But it has repeatedly been urged that further work should be entrusted to him, such as the auditing of the books of the various boards and of semiState undertakings like the iron and steel industry. I notice that the staff has been increased by three, and I just want to know from the Minister whether it will be possible for the Auditor-General to audit the various books properly with the staff he now has at his disposal. I should just like, to hear from the Minister what the position is going to be in the future.
It is proposed to submit legislation to the House during the course of this Session with the object of subjecting the various boards under the Marketing Act to audit by the Auditor-General’s department. That legislation has not yet been accepted, and consequently we have not yet made provision for the necessary personnel. We shall naturally do our best to make provision for it. The staff difficulties experienced by the Department of the Controller and Auditor-General are considerable, just as in the case of other departments, but I anticipate that when the war is over it will be possible to bring about an improvement in that regard, and that the Auditor-General will then be able to do the additional work.
Vote put and agreed to.
On Vote No. 15.—“State Advances Recoveries Office.”, £125,000,
The other day I raised a certain matter in connection with the Farmers’ Assistance Board, and it was pointed out to me that there was a motion on the Order Paper dealing with this matter. But in view of the fact that that motion will not come up for discussion again this Sitting, the Deputy-Chairman ruled that I could raise the matter on this vote, and I should like to do so now. Very difficult circumstances are still prevailing in certain districts of our country owing to drought. I am thinking of certain places in the Free State as well as certain parts of the Cape Province where the position is very difficult at the moment. I am now informed that this department is rather strict in the case of people who borrowed money from the State—also under drought relief. The position is very difficult in some of these districts, and I want to ask the Minister not to allow these people to be pressed, but that they be given an opportunity to recover somewhat. I know that the Minister of Finance himself stated that the farmers were repaying their debts very well, but we cannot expect the people to pay when the conditions in certain districts are poor. I am not pleading for the whole country. While the position in certain districts is still serious as a result of the drought, we cannot expect these people to pay their instalments and interest on the due date. I should like the Minister to give these people a slight extension until such time as they have recovered and reaped their crops. Then I should also like to have information on another point. We are not only faced with drought conditions, but occasionally we also have floods in our country. I recall a statement which the Minister of Lands made last year in regard to the serious floods in the country. He stated that we should leave this matter in the hands of the Government. But now we find that in many cases those people were not assisted, and that they find themselves in difficulties in places like Britstown and elsewhere. I do not want to go into this matter very deeply. I just want to say that I think the Minister ought to do something to meet the people in those areas which are drought-stricken as well as in areas where the people have suffered tremendous damage as a result of floods. In the first place, an extension of time should be given in connection with the payment of interest or instalments in those cases where loans were grantëd. We must do it, otherwise many of those people will be driven to the cities which are already over-populated. I have in mind the case of a woman, for example, whose house was washed away. She applied for assistance, but her application was refused.
I do not think that matter falls under this vote.
I do not want to enlarge on it. I merely wanted to touch on certain points in order to get information from the Minister in that regard.
Last year I put a question to the Minister of Lands in connection with the settlement at Dyason’s Klip in my constituency. I have ascertained that that settlement falls under this vote. I raised the matter in connection with the damage caused by the great floods last year, and I should like to say a few words in regard to that settlement. It is a fairly attractive settlement. For the greater part young men were placed on that settlement. The system prevailing there is one which the present Secretary for Lands prescribed. The Assistance Board bought a few large farms in my constituency, and these settlers Were placed there. The idea of the present Secretary for Lands was to introduce the peasant farmer system. I think the present Secretary for Lands will be able to give the Minister of Finance a good deal of information in regard to this matter. Those men are making good progress. They are industrious and they are developing that part very rapidly. But financially they are not strong enough to obtain all the implements they require for their main product, namely lucern. They need presses. At certain times of the year scores of bales of lucern accumulate there; there are no storage facilities with the result that the lucern bales are sometimes damaged by wind and rain. These people would like the Farmers’ Assistance Board to give them certain facilities. They will pay for it, but the initial outlay will be too high for them, and I should like the Department of the Minister of Finance or the Farmers’ Assistance Board to cause investigations to be made into this settlement. Last year there were great floods—I refer to the floods in the Vaal River and the Orange River as a result of which Christiana and other places suffered—and these people at Dyason’s Klip also suffered tremendous damage. The Government came to the assistance of many people, but it did not assist these few people at Dyason’s Klip. They did not know whom to approach. When I approached the Minister he did not know that they fell under his Department and he could not give these people any relief. I do not hold it against him. I should like the Farmers’ Assistance Board to be asked to inspect this place. They will see what progress has been made and what can be done further to assist these people, specially where they suffered damage in the past, and to what extent they can be assisted in connection with that damage. This is an urgent matter and if the Minister of Finance visits those parts, I would advise him to go and see what those people have done.
Is it along the river?
Yes. It is probably one of the most attractive settlements in those parts. But financially the people are not strong. Most of the settlers are young men from the platteland, whose parents were bywoners who were not financially strong, and the Farmers’ Assistance Board helped them in this way. They are making good progress, but they feel that they are being neglected to some extent. They are living in a remote part of the country and I shall be glad if the Minister will give his attention to this matter.
I am becoming concerned about the restriction of the powers of the Farmers’ Assistance Board. We notice, for example, that the salary scale has been reduced in comparison with the previous year. I want to say to the Minister that I hope he will always see to it that the Farmers’ Assistance Board of 1935 remains in existence. It is a haven for farmers who are forced under by circumstances. We must not forget that many of those farmers were obliged to approach the Farmers’ Assistance Board, not through inefficiency on their part but as a result of circumstances over which they had no control. I want to draw the Minister’s attention to the North Eastern districts. The farmers in those districts are finding themselves in a very bad position just before the winter. The districts of Molteno, Burghersdorp and Aliwal have had practically no rain up to the present and the position is very serious, having regard to the feeding of stock during the winter months. I hope the Minister will be very reasonable towards those people. There are some places where it has only rained one or two inches and if the Minister does not afford those people protection and give them some relief in connection with interest, I am afraid they will go under. There are some people who have 100 per cent. bonds which they may never be able to pay off. The Minister ought to assist those people so as to keep them on the land. I referred to the position of those people the other day, and I hope the Minister will consider the advisability of introducing a sort of suspense account, writing-off, of something of that nature, in order to come to their assistance. Those people find themselves in an altogether impossible position when it does not rain. I hope the Minister will instruct the Farmers’ Assistance Board to act sympathetically towards those people and to assist them as far as possible.
I should like to know from the Minister what the nature is of the assistance which is still being granted by the Farmers’ Assistance Board. I assume that advances are no longer being made for the purchase of stock. I am speaking sub ject to correction, but I believe that is the position. What is the nature of any other assistance which is being given to the farmers and which will be given to them in the future? Then I should like to affirm what the hon. member for Cradock (Mr. G. F. H. Bekker) said. I should like to know what the outstanding debt is on the books of the State Advances Recoveries Offices. It would be interesting to know that and to know how much is being paid off annually. We know that there are cases on the books of persons who were advanced 100 per cent. and who have gone down to such an extent that some of them have no prospect, not even in times like these, of meeting their obligations. I want to make a plea on behalf of those people. The State Advances Recoveries Office should treat these people very sympathetically. I know from experience that they do so. I do not know of a single case where anyone has been pressed for payment. There are cases, of course, where certain steps had to taken but in all cases where I approached the office, the people concerned were met in every respect. But sometimes it does become impossible for the people to meet their obligations. The question is whether the Government should not once and for all face the position and place those people on a sound footing, as the Department of Lands did some time ago in connection with certain settlers. The department wrote off debt and placed those people on a sound footing, thus enabling them to make headway on their own. I should like to ask whether the time has not arrived to face the position as far as these people are concerned. Some of them are in a hopeless position; they are not able to get out of debt without assistance, and we must consider whether we cannot meet them so that they can be placed on a sound footing.
I just want to say that the Farmers’ Assistance Board is treating some of the farmers very sympathetically. We want to admit that readily. But there are some farmers who find themselves in circumstances which make things very difficult for them. In my constituency we have had a failure of crops for practically three years. Those people are crop farmers on a percentage basis, tenant farmers and bywoners, and apart from the mealies they reap, they have no income of any other description. The result is that those people have got into arrears, and I want to make an appeal to the Minister to come to the assistance of that type of person who got into difficulties through circumstances beyond his control, and to devise some sort of plan to prevent those people from going under altogether. But now we have other cases where people cannot avoid getting into arrears, because they have been driven off their land. I know of one man who was a temporary tenant farmer and who was forced to leave his land in August. That is the most difficult time of the year. He had to sell some of his stock so as not to lose the whole lot during the winter months. He has no income and he has nowhere to go. I want to make an appeal to the Minister to consider the position of those people. They were settled on the land, and if they had remained on the land, they would not have got into arrear. They were forced into this position, and I want to warn the Minister of Lands that this phenomenon will make itself evident on a large scale. I have in mind the position of settlers in my own constituency. They were given notice to vacate the land on the 1st July. The month of July falls in the lambing season, and these people asked me whether I could not do something so that it would not be necessary for them to leave at that time. We have this position therefore that a Minister is responsible for the position that people are practically being forced off their farms. They are thrown on to the street. How are they going to meet their obligations? I ask the Minister to prepare himself for a serious position if the Minister of Lands carries out his policy of driving people off the settlements. It will cost the State thousands and thousands of pounds to save these people. They are going to lose many head of cattle, because they have no place to which they can go. They are being asked to leave their land at an impossible time as far as the Free State is concerned, and the result is going to be that the stock of thousands of those people will die. These people have no income. How are they going to meet their obligations? Where are they going to live? It is too late for those people to find some other haven and they are simply being thrown on to the street. I make a serious plea to the Minister on behalf of these people. I know their position. These people are willing. It is through no fault of their own that they find themselves in that position. They are being driven off their land by a Minister, and he will be responsible for the fact that another Minister will be saddled with a great problem to solve. I ask the Minister to bear in mind and to use his influence to see that those people are at least given the right to remain on the land until such time as they are in a position to find some other place where they can live. That will mean that they will be able to stay on during the winter, and when the summer rains come in November, they will be in a better position to find grazing for their stock. But if these people are now to be driven off, the position will be disastrous for themselves and for the State. The State is going to suffer thousands and tens of thousands of pounds’ damages; and the most serious aspect is this. Those people are being reduced to beggary, and for that reason I make a serious appeal to the Minister of Lands to face this matter. It is an imminent danger. Some of those people are going under. The State is going to lose thousands and tens of thousands of pounds and I appeal to him to give his serious attention to this matter, and I hope he will devise some sort of plan to come to the assistance of these people.
The Minister quite probably is acquainted with the fact that during the years of depression a large number of the smaller farmers were threatened with being driven off the ground. That was especially true of certain districts in the south-west, including my own district. At that time the’ price of products sank to a level at which people could not possibly produce, with the result that there was a threat of their being driven off the ground. As a result of that the Government intervened and paid certain advances to those small farmers, most of whom were vegetable farmers, etc. The advances were made for a certain period on very favourable terms. The period of repayment has already lapsed and the people are today being asked to repay the money, and there are many of those people who are not in the position to be able to do it. Since that time matters have developed badly for many of those people, with the result that today many of them are no longer farmers. They found refuge in various other activities. There are many of them who fill other posts than they did when the loan was made. Today they are daily paid workmen, and it is impossible for many of them, with the new developments, to fulfil their obligations, and I want to ask the Minister that debts should be written off where instructions have been given that repayment should be made, and where it can be proved that the person is not able to pay. It will be no other asset to the State but that those people will be placed in a still more precarious position than that in which they find themselves today. I readily wish to agree that many of them are prosperous. As a result of the assistance they received at that time, they rehabilitated themselves, and many of them are today in a prosperous position. Numbers of them today own ground as a result of that assistance, but all of them are not in that favourable position, and where these people can pay but do not pay, I am in agreement with the necessary steps being taken to see that they fulfil their obligations. I do not worry about that section, but I am thoroughly anxious about the other section who will be still further pushed downhill if those steps are taken and they are threatened with having to pay. There are many cases where those people are today in low-paid occupations. There are some of them who are herders of sheep and who have only a few animals which they need for their existence and to get to their town and church. When those people are forced to sell their animals in order to meet their obligations, I think that I am justified in asking the Minister to consider such cases seriously and favourably on their merits in the interests of the State, and by so doing he will be rendering those people as great a service as he rendered at the time when he gave them the advances. As a result of those advances, which had a very beneficial effect, some of them were rehabilitated, but many of them are still in the unfortunate position that they cannot fulfil their obligations, and I should like instructions to be issued to the magistrates that there should not be harsh action in those cases.
Reference has twice been made to Christiana and I feel that it is my duty also to mention the matter. I just want to draw the Minister’s attention to it briefly. I think it resorts more under Irrigation, but it may be that Irrigation will not act in the matter, and then we must come back to the Department of Sate Advances.
It does not resort under State Advances.
Christiana was specially selected ….
I am sorry, but I cannot allow the hon. member to discuss that matter under this Vote.
The State Advances office has two types of functions. In the first place they still in certain cases give assistance to people who hitherto have not received help. The hon. member for Somerset East (Mr. Vosloo) enquired as to what they still did in that direction. The position there is that the Farmers’ Relief Board still grants loans to pay debts contracted before 1935, for which the debtors are being pressed, and that they also make loans to assist heirs in estates to take up loans on the estate. But essentially the work of the office today is that of administering debts already contracted in the past; and in view of the fact that quite a number of repayments were made in the last few years, the work of the office at the moment is no longer as extensive as it was once upon a time. That is understandable. There are fewer current accounts, but in any case, the machinery still exists. There is quite a lot more work to be done, and hon. members can accept the assurance from me that we are still prepared to continue as before in that regard. The general policy is of course to act as sympathetically and as helpfully as possible. I think that is generally recognised, and there has been no change as regards that policy. The policy also is, as the hon. member for Wolmaransstad (Gen. Kemp) knows, to suspend the payment of interest on loans where nothing else can be done. He put the question as to what would happen for example when people cannot pay their interest as the result of a drought. That is precisely the type of case where we are prepared to give assistance, and my hon. friend may take it that we will continue, as before, to help in those cases. Drought conditions are always taken into consideration when arrear payments are being dealt with and extension of time in those cases is very generously granted. Although the Department is a department to collect State advances, it has never acted as a Department, the only duty of which is to press the last drop of blood from a stone, and the Department has never forgotten that it has resting on it a responsibility for rehabilitation, and I think that will be generally accepted. That also applies to the small loans referred to by the hon. member for Caledon (Mr. H. C. de Wet). In that connection each case is dealt with on its merits. The Department does not insist on repayment within the prescribed period. As long as the debtor effects a payment, however small, time is always given for payment. In the case referred to by the hon. member, where a farmer has ceased farming and is not able to pay, the debts are written off. The general policy is therefore in that direction, and the hon. member can take it that that policy will continue. We are much encouraged, as I have always said, by the way in which the farming community fulfilled their obligations, and I think that to a certain extent that is due to the general policy of the Department in treating the farmers in the past in a reasonable and conciliatory manner. As regards the question of flood damage at Christiana and elsewhere, that is a matter which I cannot deal with under this Vote. It is an entirely different matter and the Minister of Lands, when his Vote, Irrigation, is dealt with, will probably have something to say about it. Ás regards Dyason’s Klip, that is almost an anomaly. There one finds practically a land settlement not under the Department of Lands but under my Department. That happens because that farm was bought under the Farmers’ Relief Act, and for that reason we there created under the State Advances office what practically amounts to a land settlement. It is difficult to see how those people could best be assisted. I do not know whether the hon. member would like to see the farm transferred to the Department of Lands, or whether he prefers the present position, but in any case I shall be prepared ….
Do not place anything under Lands.
You prefer me to deal with that matter; good, then I will investigate the matter further.
Just send members of the Farmers’ Relief Board to visit them and to investigate what progress they have made and what can be done in connection with implements.
Yes, I realise that it is a quite extarordinary group of people under extraordinary circumstances, and I will devote my attention to the matter.
I am glad to hear that the Minister will deal sympathetically with those farmers who are practically dependent on loans from the Farmers’ Relief Board. In my constituency there is today a large number of farmers who have loans from the Farmers’ Relief Board, but what has happened in the meantime is that the local magistrate is always sending those farmers letters, and the farmers have become stricken with panic and are busy selling their cattle in order to meet their obligations. The farmers during the last few years had terrible setbacks there, with the result that they are not able to’ pay the interest. There is, of course, a group of fortunate farmers in the constituency who had even paid off their mortgages, but I should like to know whether it will not be desirable to appoint a commission to investigate and to analyse their cases from beginning to end to see what the trend of affairs is, and where we find that farmers in recent years have had serious setbacks, we ought to write off that interest completely. If that is done, I feel that we will greatly assist the farmers, and the Minister will be doing the farmers a signal service by rehabilitating them in this regard and by seeing that they do not go under; because the magistrates are not quite au fait with the course of events or with the sympathetic attitude adopted by the Minister towards those people. It will be of much assistance to the farmers if instructions are issued to the magistrates not to act so drastically that the people are forced to sell their cattle. I should be very glad if the Minister would consider the matter and tell us what his opinion is in connection with the appointment of such a commission of enquiry.
Vote put and agreed to.
On Vote No. 16.—“South African Mint”, £165,000.
Under this vote I should like to discuss something which really is of more interest for the near future. I refer to the question of the decimal system. I think it falls under this vote, and I think that in the past there was some investigation and that there is also some prospect that a decimal system will be put into use. Can the hon. Minister tell us how far the matter has progressed? It will be quite easy to change our system into a decimal system. We know that Canada already has a decimal system.
I think that is a matter requiring legislation and therefore I cannot allow the hon. member it discuss it.
May I just ask the Minister how far it has progressed?
I should like to raise the question of the explosion in Pretoria under this vote. It is a very painful matter to discuss, especially as we feel that those ammunition workers should not be included in the mint, as it very clearly appears from this vote. I think that as far as the State is concerned, there was perhaps a large measure of carelessness. That storehouse for ammunition was built in the olden days of the Republic, when there was not yet any Pretoria at that place, and it was very careless of the Government to permit that ammunition depot to be within the City of Pretoria, and so to cause the unfortunate condition which arose. A large number of people were killed by that explosion, and I should like to ask the Minister whether he does not think that the time has arrived when a dangerous place like an ammunition depot should be built outside the city, so that there can be no repetition of the unfortunate incident which happened recently. But I also want to put this to the Minister. Pretoria suffered tremendous damage as a result of the explosion. It is not only the explosion, it is not only the loss of life, but a large number of houses were damaged. Those houses will not stand as long as they would if ‘ there had been no explosion and those houses may in future fall down. Will the State recompense people where they can prove that their houses were damaged as the result of the explosion? I think that is the duty of the State. I do not wish to have recriminations, but I think that if there had been a far-sighted policy, that depôt for ammunition would not have been placed in the heart of Pretoria. In the last 60 years many changes have come about, and I think that when they started manufacturing ammunition there on a large scale, the ammunition depot should have been shifted to a place outside Pretoria. If that had happened, there may still have been an explosion, although one does not know, but the explosion would not have caused so much damage. I was glad to hear that the Minister of Labour said yesterday that provision has now been made for all those people. I think the Government should have cared for those people immediately. It should not have been necessary first to have an agitation. After there had been a demonstration in Pretoria, the Government found work for those people. I hope that those people will now receive the same salary, or more than they received in the past. I wish to express the hope that the Minister will give consideration to the possibility of compensating people for the damage caused to houses in the immediate vicinity of the depot where the explosion took place. It is not the fault of those people that the explosion took place. It is not the fault of those people that they built in those areas at a time when they did not know that ammunition would be manufactured there.
The hon. member for Christiana (Mr. Brink) raised the question of the introduction of a decimal system. He spoke with reference to our coinage, but he will probably admit that such a change could not be limited to the coinage. It would have to be something which would also be applicable to our weights and measures; there is probably just as much reason, or perhaps more reason, to apply it to our weights and measures. In any case, it is something which would cause a fairly big change. As regards our railway administration it would, for example, cause great changes in their system of administration, especially in cases where they use machines, and in connection with the administration of their accounts, etc. Many machines are used in such a large administration, and they would all have to be changed.
Gradually, of course.
No, it cannot happen gradually; there would have to be a fairly quick change over, and the same applies of course to trade. Therefore, under the circumstances prevalent during the last few years it would simply have been impossible to think of anything like that.
But at the same time it would be a great saving.
Yes, I admit that, but it will cost much money. Apart, however, from the amount it will cost, there is the simple position that one cannot now obtain machines to replace the present ones. Therefore, under the present circumstances it is practically impossible to do anything in connection with the matter. I have discussed the matter provisionally with my colleague the Minister of Economic Development, but I cannot say that we made much progress with a view to the general difficulties I have mentioned.
Is there any chance of it happening?
Yes, there is a chance of anything happening.
There is a chance, for example, that the Minister might get married.
Yes, I hope so. The hon. leader opposite also waited fairly long. Perhaps there is a chance for me too. The hon. member for Wolmaransstad (Gen. Kemp) referred to the unfortunate question of the explosion in Pretoria. That is of course essentially a matter for the Defence Department. It is only for the sake of convenience that the administration of the ammunition factory falls under the mint. As far as the technical side is concerned, I have really nothing to do with that. Therefore the actual question of the explosion does not rest with me, but seeing that my hon. friend raised the question in connection with compensation for property which was damaged, I wish to say that the property damaged for the major part belongs to the Government.
There is also other property.
Yes, there is other property also, but I do not think on a large scale. In any case the Government has already taken steps to ask the departments concerned, namely the Department of Defence and the Public Works Department, to investigate the question of the claims loged in connection with damage caused to private property, and the whole question was also discussed ….
Will you pay them pensions or must they claim them?
I am afraid that we are at cross-purposes. We are not dealing with pensions now. My hon. friend over there raised the question of damage to property as a result of the explosion at Pretoria. He asked whether we would be prepared to recompense people whose buildings were damaged. We cannot go and look for those people. We do not know who they are, but the department concerned has been asked to take the necessary steps on which we can take action.
†*As regards the question of removing the magazine, I think the Prime Minister has already stated that a magazine will not be built in that place again.
It makes it very difficult for us to discuss the various aspects of the explosion in Pretoria properly when the relevant Minister only exercises control over certain portions of it. We do not want to misuse the opportunity to discuss the various aspects of the explosion under this vote, but so much damage was done, both to human life and to property, that the matter must be tackled in order to prevent a repetition of that unfortunate incident. The first objection I have is this—I know I must subject myself to the rules of the House— but does not the Minister himself feel that it is a false nomenclature to manufacture ammunition under the name of a Mint? Approximately 16 of the personnel are employed in connection with manufacturing in the Mint itself, while approximately 1,500 are employed in ammunition production. An amount £165,000 is asked for in the vote, while the wages of the ammunition workers amount to approximately £2,000,000. I regard that as false nomenclature, and I think it is not worthy of the Government to allow the manufacture of ammunition to be continued under a false name.
What do you regard as a false name?
Calling an ammunition factory a Mint. But the point I want to stress is that we must prevent something like that again happening in the future. I have been told—I do not have special knowledge of the area or of the geography but I have been informed that in the neighbourhood there is another great depot where ammunition is stored. The other place was chiefly used for loading purposes, but I was informed that in the same neighbourhood there is another depot, and I should like to know from the Minister whether it is true or not.
A second one?
Yes.
Apart from the one where the explosion took place?
Yes.
I know nothing about that; I was not told that.
As a result of what happened I object to the continued manufacture of ammunition in the original Mint, which was originally intended just for the striking of medals and for the manufacture of coins, in one of the most thickly populated parts of Pretoria, where people live close together. It is really the less privileged part of the population of the city who live there, and the people live close together, house to house. In the case of an explosion in the Mint, thousands and tens of thousands of pounds’ worth of damage must be inflicted. Furthermore, there are many valuable buildings in that neighbourhood. I am thinking of the City Hall which was built a few years ago and which is not far from it, and which cost the city of Pretoria hundreds of thousands of pounds. If an explosion takes place it may also cause damage to the railway station buildings which are not far away. In view of the danger attached to the continued production of ammunition in that vicinity, it is a very serious question whether the Government intends to continue with it on those premises. I take it that the Minister’s reply will be that with the expected end of the war in the near future, it is expected that the production of ammunition there will not be continued with for long. But the ammunition will still have to be manufactured on a certain scale. Is it intended to continue to manufacture ammunition on those premises? That is an especially important matter for the community as a whole, because it is not only a few hundred people who suffer damage through it, but it may be thousands. I do not know whether ammunition is also stored there, but if it is stored there, it will be still more dangerous. Thousands of lives may be lost in case there is another explosion, but it is unreasonable to manufacture ammunition practically in the heart of a thickly populated portion of a city. I regard it as nationally immoral to manufacture ammunition in a thickly populated portion of a city. We participate in the war; the Government allege that there was danger of an attack. What result would it have had if Pretoria had been attacked from the air and explosions had been caused? I think the Government should devote its attention to removing that factory and to use the premises only for which it was originally intended, or for other purposes which cannot cause any serious danger. In connection with the same matter, I just wish to refer to something else. The hon. minister knows that quite a number of new buildings were erected, valuable buildings, especially in the vicinity of Pretoria and near Kimberley, Is there any intention to convert those buildings for useful purposes? I am under the impression that those buildings were built with funds made available for war purposes. I take it that that is so. The Government gave the assurance that an appreciable portion of the £4,500,000,000 devoted to the war, approximately £70,000,000 was invested in permanent works. Is there any intention of using these buildings in a useful manner? The following aspect is the large number of workers concerned in it. I see from the vote that there are approximately 1,500, of which only 16 are used for the mint itself. I do not know what the position is in Kimberley, but I take it that there are also hundreds of them. There a number of them will, I take it, be permanent employees, but is the large mass of them all temporary? It is necessary to study the extent of this problem. I take it that the largest portion of them are in temporary service. I also know that there was an idea of using some of the buildings near Kimberley for industrial purposes. If this is a confidential matter I do not expect the Minister to make a statement, but if the plan has already been proceeded with in a practical manner, it will perhaps be possible to say to what extent the building will be used, and also how it will affect the problem of providing work. Finally, a question in connection with this tragic incident, namely what the position of the dependants is. Steps are taken in connection with the wounded and the unemployed, but there are also dependants. Can the Minister tell us what the position of the children and other dependants is?
I think the hon. member for Ceres (Dr. Stals) will appreciate that the connection I, as Minister of Finance have with the problem he raised, is not a very strong one.
That is our difficulty.
This matter has already been raised under the Defence Vote. The work to which he refers is work which is paid for under that vote. The matter therefore had to be raised there, and it was so raised. As regards the future use of the buildings, they are not my buildings. The Minister of Economic Development is busy investigating the matter, but I have no information available as to what progress has been made. The position is simply that even before the war a start was made with the manufacture of cartridges, and in view of the fact that the procedure followed in the manufacture of cartridges is similar to the procedure followed in the manufacture of coins, it was then arranged that that should be done by the Mint. It is not something which happens only in war-time. It goes back to 1937 when a start was made with it, but of course after that there was tremendous expansion as regards the manufacture of ammunition. It has always been convenient, to a certain extent, to make use of the administrative organisation of the Mint in Pretoria, especially in view of the fact that the major portion of the buildings of the ammunition factory adjoined the buildings of the Mint, and for that reason the administrative connection between the two portions has been retained but all the further work falls under the Director of Supplies, and financial provision is made under the Defence Vote. In this vote I only provide for the salaries of administrative officials who serve both divisions. That is the extent to which I am concerned in the matter. There is quite a lot to be said for it, and perhaps it would be advisable to cease the manufacture of ammunition next to the Mint. Of course we developed further in other places, and it is quite possible that the further development will take place at these other places. But there are plans which must still be discussed, and I am not acquainted with all the plans. In any case the hon. member can have the assurance that the matter will not be lost sight of. As regards the use of buildings for the purposes of other industries, that is also a matter which I have already referred to. I know of no other place at Pretoria where ammunition is stored. In any case, the explosion took place in the magazine and not in the ammunition factory, and as I have already said, I understood from the Minister of Defence that there is no intention of again erecting a magazine there. The officials, apart from the administrative officials who are permanent, and for whom provision is made here, are in temporary service, just like the other personnel in the ammunition factory.
With reference to the important aspect raised by the hon. member for Christiana (Mr. Brink) and the attention which this problem received recently from scientists, I want to request the Minister to obtain more information about the matter. I do not wish to recommend here that a commission should be appointed, but the matter is of so much interest that I feel it should be investigated.
It is essentially a matter for the Minister of Economic Development. I have already discussed it with him.
I should like to take the opportunity, while the Minister of Lands is here, to say something about the less privileged people in my constituency. The ground which is available there ….
I am sorry but the hon. member cannot discuss that under this vote.
Last year I also referred to the matter under the Vote of the Minister of the Interior, and he said that he would investigate it. That is the question of Latin on our coins. On our coins there is Georgius Rex Imperator. What meaning has that for South Africa? The reverse of our coins is in many cases very beautiful a ship, a protea, and all sorts of South African symbols, but on the face we find the old outmoded classical form, and I think it is high time that we touch on the matter again. I have four coins here, and all four are the same. “Imperator” has no meaning to South Africa. That has to do with India.
It is the King’s full title.
But give him the title he has in regard to South Africa; and why must we have the King’s head on our coins? Cannot we have the heads of old Voortrekkers on our coins, or something of that nature? Why that un-South African thing? Last year I pointed to the use of “Ex unitate veris”. No farmer will know what that means. Say “Unity makes strength”, and he will immediately have an idea of what it means.
Vote put and agreed to.
On Vote No. 17.—“Union Education”, £1,670,900,
There is only one point in connection with which I should like the assistance of the Department of Union Education, and that is to obtain building material from the Controller of Building Material who is sitting alongside the Minister. Great difficulty is being experienced by certain universities on account of the increase in the number of students and the shortage of housing accommodation for them. In the cities it is usually still possible to make other arrangements for lodgings, but in the smaller towns—I have Stellenbosch and Grahamstown in mind—there are virtually no additional housing facilities, and in the case of one university a number of students have had to be turned away this year for that reason alone. In many instances the universities have the funds available to provide logings for students but they can only achieve this by building, and I should like to ask the Minister to use his influence with the building controller to grant permits to the universities so that they can build hostels for the students.
We are always doing that.
I can mention one instance where they have already been waiting a year, and it is this university that has to turn students away because no accommodation is to be found in the whole of the town. They have made application to be allowed to build a new hostel and this has been refused all along. But if one goes to the playground of the idle rich at Hermanus one sees that permits are issued for pleasure purposes to give Cape Town’s idle rich and playboys facilities to spend their holidays; but where there is a real need to house our sons and daughters who want to pursue their studies, young people whose future in a great measure depends on their studies at the university, permits have in many cases been refused.
Business suspended at 12.45 p.m. and resumed at 2.20 p.m.
Afternoon Sitting.
Mr. Chairman, this morning we heard the distressing news that one of the greatest democrats, the late President and Commander-in-Chief of Our great ally, passed away. I had hoped that the Acting Prime Minister would have made a statement and would have moved a vote of condolence and then adjourned the House as a mark of respect and of the sympathy we feel for our allies and cousins in America. I will not speak at any length, but I want to draw the attention of the House, as we are sitting here, and the attention of the country to the position. May I ask the Acting Prime Minister why it is that in South Africa we, who have our armies fighting under an American General and who are so closely knit to our allies ….
Order, order. I do not think I can allow the hon. member to proceed, unless he moves ….
I move—
I have given my reasons. I do not wish to detain the House. It is not for me, as a humble member of Parliament, to make a speech on this subject in the House. I must leave it to the Leader of the House, and so I ask the Leader of the House to explain to me and to our friends here why it is that this was not done.
Mr. Chairman, the hon. member for Hospital (Mr. Barlow) has asked why a statement was not made in this House, when the House commenced its business this morning, as a result of the lamented death of President Roosevelt. Let me say at once that it was my feeling that it was right that such a statement should be made. I had that feeling both because of the position which President Roosevelt held as the head of State of a most important country and also because of his very outstanding personal position. It seemed to me to be appropriate that I, as the Acting Prime Minister, should express the feelings of the nation in this connection, and should do so in this House. But, Mr. Chairman, as everyone is aware, no one can discuss a matter which is not on the Order Paper if any one member objects. Moreover, the value of anything of this kind is gravely impaired if such a statement is not made on behalf of the House as a whole. I am today, in the absence of the Rt. Hon. the Prime Minister, the Leader of this House, and anything I might say on an occasion like this should be said on behalf of the House as a whole. Therefore, it seemed to me to be right, and indeed essential, that I should ascertain the views of the Leader of the Opposition in regard to this matter, with a view to learning whether I would have his concurrence in making such a statement as I contemplated. I followed the usual machinery in such matters, of consultation between the Whips, and the reply came back that the Leader of the Opposition did not agree that the course I had proposed was appropriate.
Scandalous.
Therefore, in view of the importance of the matter I felt it incumbent upon me to go and see him personally, which I did. I put the position to him, but he was unable to alter his attitude.
Scandalous.
On that account, and for the reasons I have given, I felt that I could not make the statement here when the House commenced its business, as I had wished to do. I am still prepared to make such a statement as I have indicated, which can only be made with the concurrence of the Leader of the Opposition. If the Leader of the Opposition is at this stage prepared to give his concurrence I will accept the motion of the hon. member for Hospital and then make such a statement, and thereafter move the adjournment of the House. But failing his concurrence it must be obvious that I cannot take that course, that nothing would be gained by the debate being adjourned, and in that event I would have to ask the hon. member to withdraw his motion.
In all my experience and in this Parliament there are few things, I think that have so amazed me as this episode that is now occurring here. What I should like to know is this: When the Acting Prime Minister left my room had he in mind allowing what is now happening to take place? Is there any understanding between him and the member who moved the motion; did the member who has moved this motion discuss it with the Acting Prime Minister?
He did speak to me about it.
Disgraceful.
The whole business is most distasteful. I cannot regard this episode as anything else than scandalous, and what is occurring here merits the censure of every reasonable person. I do not take the slightest exception to the idea having occurred to the Acting Prime Minister to make a statement here, nor to the fact that he asked my opinion about it. But as he asked my opinion on it I gave him my opinion. It was this. If such a motion was introduced here and a statement made in the House it would be something quite unusual. So far as my recollection goes it has never occurred when the head of a friendly State has passed away that a statement has been made in this House. This has never happened before, and consequently should it happen now it would create a precedent; and if you create it you will not be able to depart from it in the future without it being taken to a certain extent as a reflection or a slight on the State that has sustained the loss of its head. A precedent is being established, and it will have to be followed in the future in respect of all friendly States, big or small. That was my opinion and I told the Acting Prime Minister that at the moment it was the case of the late President Roosevelt. But Russia with Stalin at its head is another of the great allied powers. Regarding Stalin there exists a difference of opinion in this House, and a very strong difference of opinion on the whole objective and conduct of Stalin. Supposing he were to pass away tomorrow should we have to do the same thing and follow the precedent we are now creating here? Without having had any objection to President Roosevelt either as an individual or as head of the United States I simply want to regard the implications of this matter fairly and squarely, and we should not lay down a precedent that we are not prepared to follow consistently. That was my opinion, and what now is the result? The Acting Prime Minister stated that he could see my point of view, and with that he left, saying that he would let the matter rest. What is taking place here and now is nothing else than an attempt to cast a reflection on me and on the Opposition and to make political capital out of it. That being the case, I regard it as nothing less than scandalous.
I am sure the Hon. Leader of the Opposition does not realise the very deep feeling that has been created through every section of this side of the House at what took place this morning. The hon. member has suggested that this proposal of the hon. member for Hospital (Mr. Barlow) was the result of some preconceived arrangement between the Hon. Acting Prime Minister and the hon. member himself.
Nonsense.
I should like to say far from there being any preconceived arrangement between the hon. member for Hospital and the Leader of this House the action he took was the result of representations made by the majority of members of this House as a protest against the totally uncalled-for action of the Hon. Leader of the Opposition. The hon. member said we should not create—or he thought we were creating—a precedent by passing such a motion as the Minister suggested.
Has it been done before?
It has not. But what I should like to say is this. Has it ever happened before that a man of such worldwide importance and value, a man who has played so great a part in the struggle that has been going on during the last few years, has it ever happened that such a man, the head of a democratic state has died in circumstances such as these? Does it not mean that in these special circumstances this House is the proper place where on such an occasion we can depart from the ordinary rules. I venture to say we would not create a precedent in asking the House to deal with the matter as suggested by the Acting Prime Minister. I would venture to say that the action taken this morning is going to have the very widest repercussions right through this country, irrespective of parties. Hon. members opposite laugh.
It is nothing but politics.
The hon. member talks about politics.
You ought to be ashamed of yourself.
The matter is far too big for that. I want to say this action this afternoon is because of the deep-rooted sincere feeling of the members on this side of the House, and I venture to say of the vast bulk of the people of this country, that in this House was the proper place to honour a great man, that we should be acting in conformity with the democratic principles which go right through the Commonwealth of Nations in the actions we have taken today, or rather which we have been prevented from taking this morning.
What prevented you?
We were prevented by the Opposition. In what we have been prevented from doing we have done more discredit to the name of South Africa amongst the nations of the world, and we will hold the Opposition responsible for the discredit they have brought on the name of South Africa.
Scandalous.
The Hon. Leader of the Opposition has had a great deal to say about “shame” and “scandal”. He cannot fling that at me. If anyone ever treated the Leader of the Opposition with courtesy I have done so. He has hurled the accusation at me that I left his room and immediately made arrangements which resulted in him being placed in his present quandary. That is of course not so. If I wanted to do that I should have adhered to my intention of making a statement in this House. But he refused the request. I sat here in my place the whole morning. After the adjournment the hon. member for Hospital (Mr. Barlow) said that he wished to introduce a motion of this sort. Perfectly all right, why not? Why should he not move this in the circumstances? What took place between the Leader of the Opposition and myself? It is true he stated that a precedent would be created and that tomorrow we might have to follow a similar course in respect of another State. He said that if Stalin died tomorrow we should have to do the same thing. I pointed out to him that this was no precedent. President Roosevelt is head of a State and Stalin is not head of a State.
What next?
He is not head of a State. In addition I stated that, quite apart from the position that the late President Roosevelt held, it was right we should pay homage to his memory, bearing in mind his outstanding personal career; and he then stated that his position of prominence was to be attributed to the role that he played in this war, and they as an Opposition were opposed to South Africa having taken part in the war. Then stated that I understood the position of the Hon. Leader of the Opposition and seeing he was not prepared to support me in such a statement—which in my opinion, as I have stated, could under the Standing Orders only be introduced in the House as an unopposed motion—I would not take this course. I complied with that. That is still my position. If the Leader of the Opposition even now will say that he will offer no objection to the making of such a statement I am prepared to accept the motion of the hon. member for Hospital.
It appears to me that the Acting Prime Minister does not quite realise his responsibility. I know it has been customary on the demise of the head of a friendly State for the Prime Minister to despatch a cablegram to the country, expressing sympathy for the people on the loss they have sustained. But never has this House accepted a motion of condolence in connection with anyone who has not been a member of this House. Now the Acting Prime Minister says that it will not be a precedent. What else is it? If you do this in regard to President Roosevelt you must act similarly in respect of the heads of other friendly States. Why not? Now the Acting Prime Minister says that Stalin is not the head of the State in Russia. Does he believe that himself? I fear the Acting Prime Minister does not believe that. Let me say this very clearly. We are opposed to this war. Have we to pass a motion of condolence in connection with the head of any State who has died and who has been on the allied side during the present war? We are not prepared to do this. We would be creating a precedent that we may not create. The Acting Prime Minister can, as has happened in the past, send a cable in the name of the people, but he cannot have such a resolution taken by Parliament. But what grieves me specially is the attitude taken up by the Acting Prime Minister with the hon. member for Hospital. We know that he will do anything. He made this agreement with the Leader of the Opposition, and now he has changed his attitude. The whole purpose of this motion is to set up a sort of agitation among the people and to create the impression that we have no sympathy in connection with the death of President Roosevelt. We have sympathy in connection with the death of anyone whether he was opposed to us or not, but we decline to create a precedent that will have far-reaching results, and that might tomorrow or the next day place us in a false position when we might have to adopt a motion of condolence regarding someone we do not like, or who possibly was an enemy of the people of South Africa. For this reason the Leader of the Opposition was perfectly right in taking up the attitude he did, and I think it was the duty of the Acting Prime Minister when his members approached him to say: Look, this is the position; I have agreed with the Leader of the Opposition; this is his opinion and in the circumstances the Government will follow that course. He could always have sent a cable.
I suggested that.
The Acting Prime Minister could have sent a cable of sympathy in connection with the death of President Roosevelt. I hope that we shall never have, a repetition of an incident of this sort, and that never again will such an underhand thing occur.
I should like to make an appeal to the Hon. Leader of the Opposition, ah hon. member for whom I have always had and still have the very highest respect.
After this?
Even after this. I am prepared to repeat all that I said as I am entitled to do. The main point of the Hon. Leader of the Opposition, as I understand it, is that he does not desire this to be made—as he fears it might be made —a precedent for other nations. I say let that point be met. Let the House agree in what we shall do today, including the Hon. Leader of the Opposition, we shall be establishing no precedent at all; let that be made plain. I have hope that the Hon. Leader of the Opposition himself will support the House and South Africa in paying tribute not merely to a great man but a great Christian, a really great American, the greatest man that the world has seen since Abraham Lincoln.
I think there is one thing we must endeavour to forget, and that is the sentimental side, and that we should look at the practical side of this matter. It does not admit of doubt that what is proposed here is an innovation—it has never happened before in this House, and consequently it would be wise to pause and discover what the implications are of this new step that is being taken. The policy hitherto consistently followed in connection with the death of a person outside the country who has not been a member of this House, is that no motion of condolence has been adopted. That has been consistently followed. Here we have to deal with a case, however exceptional it may be, of the head of a State who has died, the head of a foreign government, and one must necessarily be careful to see that no discrimination is being made between one government and another. It is an extremely dangerous point. If you treat them all in the same way, well and good. Then no one can take umbrage, but if you adopt one course of action in respect of one State and a different course of action in respect of another State, you expose yourself to a charge of discrimination, and what this House must decide is whether in the future in every case where the head of a State dies a motion of this sort should be adopted or not. You cannot merely say that you will do it in one case and not in another, because then you will be discriminating. Then the nation in connection with whose head of State you are not adopting a motion can say that apparently their head was not good enough for a motion of this sort. That is the fundamental question that must be considered in a matter such as this. Do we want to create this precedent? It is no use arguing that it is not a precedent. The mere fact that this is the first time that anything like this has happened is sufficient proof that it is a precedent. If it is once created you run the danger of making yourself guilty of insulting a foreign nation if you do not carefully comply with this precedent in the future. The question is, are we prepared to do this? And as we do not want to place ourselves in a vulnerable position so that in the future the finger can be pointed at us, we cannot identify ourselves with this. We do not want to land ourselves in a difficulty with foreign nations. We do not want to place ourselves in future in an embarrassing position in respect of other foreign powers, and in view of what has happened before, it has been regarded on its merits and it is something we must consider very seriously. We have had an example in the course of this week. A very important official of the Government of this country died in America, a man who gave distinguished service to South Africa, very valuable service.
An official.
An official of this country and of this Government. But it has not been customary to pass a formal motion of this sort in respect of an official, and it was never felt by hon. members on the other side —who are now concerned over the head of a foreign government—that when such a leading official of their own Government, a Minister overseas, passes away …. [Interruptions.] I know that hon. members in the corner are very noisy, but often that is only to conceal their lack of ideas. I repeat that here was an opportunity to pay a tribute to an important person in our country by way of a motion of condolence, and we did not want to establish a precedent. I should have opposed it in that case also because it is a dangerous precedent. You do not know when to draw the line. But it would be just as dangerous to create a precedent here, because you do not know where to draw the line between the various States. It is necessary to regard the matter objectively and on its merits. But there is much more in it than this. I think it will scarcely reflect honour on the memory of President Roosevelt that this is being used, and that his death is being used as a means of making political capital. I think that nothing is more calculated to detract from the memory of President Roosevelt than by using his death to make low political capital. In the circumstances one perhaps cannot take offence at thé Acting Prime Minister. The post is still new to him. He cannot be expected to have the tact that is necessary in the position, but I maintain this on his own admission here today he arranged something different with the Leader of the Opposition. Now he maintains that he did not do anything in conflict with that agreement; but when the members of his party approached him he must have told them what he had agreed with the Leader of the Opposition—that he had discussed the matter with the Leader of the Opposition, that he had arrived at an agreement with him, and that he could not identify himself with the course proposed by these hon. members. He must have told them that if they did that they would be doing it on their own account, and he would not be able to identify himself with it, seeing that such an attitude would have been in conflict with his agreement with the Leader of the Opposition. That would have been the correct moral attitude in the circumstances. But what does the Acting Prime Minister do? He gives an assurance to the Leader of the Opposition then lets the members of his party propose the opposite, and then he shrugs his Shoulders and says: “It is not I who have done this.” The question is not whether he inspired it but whether what he has done was in conformity with the agreement. Has he dissociated himself from the attitude of the members of his party? So far as I can understand he has certainly not done that. It does not appear to me he has done that because he cannot hold the hon. member for Hospital in check. It is perhaps a proof of his weakness that he cannot function as leader and take a decisive attitude. It is no evidence of moral courage on the part of the Acting Prime Minister that he cannot keep his own satellites in order on such a point as this. The whole of this regrettable incident is no tribute to President Roosevelt. If hon. members on the other side are so concerned why do they not present a motion as from their caucus? Then they could send a unanimous motion and they would not be creating any precedent and we would not be involved in it; because then it would be a precedent of their caucus and not in respect of the House. They have every right to adopt such a precedent. It might be a precedent, but it would not affect this House. But if the House is involved in it, it is something we have to consider seriously, because it would create an important precedent.
The Senate adopted a unanimous motion.
If they want to create such a precedent, well and good. Even this hon. member who is so obstreperous can send his own personal telegram of sympathy, but we would be stultifying ourselves to adopt such a motion if we are not prepared to do the same in future in connection with other heads of States. In heaven’s name do not let us allow such an event to be made a political shuttlecock. Do not let us try to make political capital out of this mournful event that has befallen the world.
I have asked the Leader of the Opposition whether he is even now prepared to associate himself with what I put before him this morning. I did not put a motion before him, but I asked him whether he was prepared that I should make a statement. I have again asked him whether he is prepared to agree to that, but apparently he is not. In view of the attitude of the Opposition I am, however, now quite prepared to accept the motion of the hon. member for Hospital (Mr. Barlow) and to let progress be reported as far as this debate is concerned. I shall thereby not be enabled to make the statement to which my hon. friend has made an objection; the right was denied me to do that in Parliament, and I have had to avail myself of the opportunity to make it on the wireless. But I shall, without speaking on it, move the adjournment of the House so that the House may in that way show its respect to the late President Roosevelt.
I want to say that we on this side of the House naturally regret as much as hon. members on the other side the painful discussion that is now taking place, but I think we have to look facts in the face. To what is this debate due? Is it not due to the weakness of the Acting Prime Minister? If he had brought forward a motion in favour of what we now feel so strongly about, why did he not do his duty and make a statement to the House when it assembled? Nothing prevented him do so. We appreciate his having approached the Leader of the Opposition. Why was that? It was to secure unanimity. And after the Leader of the Opposition explained his viewpoint the Acting Prime Minister accepted it. I only want to sound a warning in this connection. We have previously experienced unfortunate difficulties when we attempted to come to an understanding, especially when the Prime Minister has been absent. We have already had difficulties when the Whips have been involved in it. The duty of the Acting Prime Minister, if he felt so strongly as he says, was clear. Now he suddenly accepts the motion because he realises what a blunder he committed. If he felt that way about it, as he says, he should have stated to the Leader of the Opposition: Notwithstanding what you say, though I understand your attitude, I am still going to do what I have proposed. Why did he not do it? He realises now that from a political viewpoint he has made a mistake, and now he wants to act the strong man and accept the motion. It is regrettable that this painful debate has occurred. I have always had a great respect for President Roosevelt. He was the head of the greatest republic. I was a republican too, and I had perhaps more respect for him than hon. members on the other side. It is regrettable that we should have a discussion at this stage. I may say that I uderstand— I may be wrong—that even our Governor-General under the procedure is not allowed to send a cable. Only the King sends a cable. After the Leader of the Opposition had explained his standpoint and it was accepted by the Acting Prime Minister, why did he not let it rest at that? If he did not accept it he should have proceeded with his intention. The Acting Prime Minister now wants to take advantage of the position. I am very sorry that this discussion has occurred, because we here have just as much respect for the late President Roosevelt as they have, but with this sort of discussion we are not paying homage to his memory.
I would like to ask my hon. friends on the other side, if what we have proposed is so wrong, why is it that only a few minutes ago, in Another Place, a resolution of condolence was moved by the Leader of the United Party there, Senator Clarkson, seconded by Senator van Niekerk, the Leader of the Nationalist Party, and carried unanimously? Will they answer that question, because everything they have said here today also applies to the Nationalist Party in the Other Place?
It just shows how much regard the Nationalist Party had for President Roosevelt.
I should like to relate what happened this morning, because there is a small detail that has all along been omitted. Were it not for that I should not have spoken, because I feel that it is an unfortunate discussion that has taken place in the House. I want to ask hon. members if anyone should come into this Chamber and hear us talking about the death of a great man, sitting here and laughing and shouting at each other,—would such a person think it possible for us in these circumstances to express our condolences on the death of this great man? I should like to say how this discussion started this morning. The Chief Whip of the United Party came to our room and said to us, in English, that the Acting Prime Minister did not want to propose a motion but he wanted to make a statement in the House; but if the feeling on this side was against that course he would leave it at that. Those were his words. I then said to him in the same nice spirit that as soon as the Leader of the Opposition came in I would see him at once. I waited at the door of his room and told him about this. He had just as much sympathy, and he replied just as he has done today in the House. There was nothing but the deepest respect, but he was afraid that a precedent would be created. The Leader of the Opposition added that it could be done in the usual way, and that the Prime Minister of the country usually sent a telegram in the name of the people. The whole position was discussed with the deepest respect. Those of us who have recently lost dear ones know what this means. This is the spirit in which the whole matter was discussed. I thought it necessary to inform the House that this was the spirit in which these discussions were conducted this morning; but if this is the spirit in which we are going to evince our condolences in regard to the deceased president, I do not think that America will feel proud of it nor South Africa.
One thing is abundantly clear; if we want to show dishonour to the memory of the head of a State, in this case to President Roosevelt, the way to do it is to have a debate such as has been occasioned in this House this afternoon and which is taking place now. I want to ask the Acting Prime Minister now whether, in the circumstances as he knew them when the hon. member for Hospital (Mr. Barlow) approached him and said that he wanted to introduce such a motion, he did not know, or must have known, that as a result of that there would occur what has occurred. He knew that; he must have known; and I ask him if his object was by making a statement to pay homage to President Roosevelt whether his attitude towards the motion of the hon. member for Hospital was not directly in conflict with his intention? He could not have done a greater dishonour to President Roosevelt’s memory than to have provoked a discussion of this nature and to have made it possible. I should like to supplement the remarks I made a little while ago, and which have not been supplemented by the Acting Prime Minister, though he ought to have done so when he explained what occurred between him and me. It is that I told him that I believed that if the Prime Minister himself was present here he would have followed the usual procedure in such circumstances, which was, in the name of South Africa and the people of South Africa to send a telegram of sympathey to the United States in the loss of the head of their State. It is always done in such cases, and that is the usual and ordinary course to follow. I made the suggestion to the Acting Prime Minister; I told him that he should do this, that I had not the slightest objection to it, and that no reasonable man in the country would object to it. But he wanted to follow an unusual course and make a statement here in Parliament, such as he has now proposed, and to do it in the name of Parliament. He asked my opinion on the matter and I told him it would mean the laying down of a precedent. And as I previously stated, and as I again emphasise, such a precedent would have to be followed consistently in the future especially in connection with the heads of other friendly nations. If we do anything of this kind today we should be prepared to say that we will follow the same course in the future, and we cannot be prepared to follow that precedent always. The Acting Prime Minister now presents the case as if I prevented him from doing this. I did not prevent him. He had the fullest right to do that, and he still has that right. It is not for me to tell him that he should not do this, or that he should do it. But he asked my opinion whether he should do it, and I said it would be an unusual course to follow because it would create a precedent that we could not follow in the future. I did not prevent him doing that and he could have done so if he wanted; and why does he want to do it in my name and on my responsibility and not on his own responsibility? All that I can say is this. The Acting Prime Minister came this morning and asked my opinion. When I gave him my opinion that it would create a precedent that we could not follow in the future his answer was: “Well, if that is your opinion I will leave it there”. That is the assurance that he gave me—that he would leave it. After that he gave encouragement and permission to a member of his party to come here and initiate a discussion such as this. I maintain that the only honourable attitude that the Acting Prime Minister could have adopted in those circumstances was to have stated to that member of his party: “Look, I have discussed this matter and there is another opinion over it, not as regards President Roosevelt or the United States, but on the question of whether the House should express its condolences in this unusual way and create a precedent, and I ask you as a member of my party to acquiesce in that”. That is the only honourable course he could have followed, and I do not hesitate to say that his conduct in connection with this matter is dishonourable.
It appears as if this debate has resolved itself into a personal difference between the Acting Prime Minister and the Leader of the Opposition. I rise as a member of this House who stands outside that personal difference and I ask myself whether I as a member of this House would regard it as my duty to express condolences in connection with the death of a man like President Roosevelt. I want to confine myself to the consideration whether a precedent would be created if this House followed such a course. I take the view without any doubt that no precedent would have been created, because we would always be able to adopt such a motion should the death occur of the head of a State standing in that exceptional relationship in which President Roosevelt stood to us. He is today the commander-in-chief of all our forces. It is the American military leaders under whom our troops are fighting. I can understand that hon. members opposite do not feel as we do on this matter. I am speaking purely in a personal capacity in this House. I personally, and I am convinced a large section of the country feels that a close relationship subsists between America and ourselves in this war and otherwise. Our fighting forces are fighting under American military leaders, and in those circumstances it would have created no precedent if we on this occasion had adopted a motion of condolence. Should circumstances recur in connection with the death of the head of a State standing in such a relationship to South Africa we could again adopt such a motion.
Mr. Chairman we, have spent exactly 50 minutes over the dead body of one of the three greatest men in the world today, considering whether we (as we ought to do, with tears in our eyes) should (metaphorically speaking) shake the hand of his widow and family. I suggest to you, Mr. Chairman, although I do not know the exact procedure of this House, that if it is at all possible, this discussion should cease at once, this discussion in regard to whether we will send condolences to the wife and family of one of the three greatest men in the world. This is one of most deplorablë exhibitions that could have happened in any Parliament in the world. I therefore say to you, Mr. Chairman—and through you to the Acting Prime Minister—that if he has the power, he should exercise that power and allow the motion of the hon. member for Hospital (Mr. Barlow) to be adopted. Furthermore I want to tell the Opposition that if this matter is considered by them to be of some political advantage to this side of the House, they must forget that the more they say the more difficult it will be for them to get out of their dilemma. I suggest that the motion be now put, for I am sure that as far as this side of the House is concerned the message would have been sent away long ago, containing real condolences to the people of America and to the world in general.
Motion put and agreed to.
