The Hoc. the Minister of Native Affairs,

Union iuildings.

m i,

On December 8th, 1950, the "Bund imily Mail" onblished a report on an interview with you in regard to the adjourn­ment of the Natives' Representative Gouncil. Towards the end of this report, the following passage appeared:

« Coapl a 1 nj. zjJ&SS-lM&SSLtot.

"Because the Connell had refused to submit to the discipline of the Chair there was a deadlock. Meanwhile the Institute of Baee Belatione had tried to influence the Chairman to give Councillors their way for two hours * so that they could satisfy their electorate* before going to the actual agenda".

Ve realise, of oourse, that the sub-heading "Complains of B««e Institute" was Inserted by the aewepaper staff, and did not fe n part of year statement. Mererthelees, as our entire object la approaching the Secretary for Satire Affairs, and in interviewing Councillors, had bean to aeeist la enenrlng the continuance of the work of the Connell, we ware anxious that the press reoort should not create a false Impression in ths mind of the public. We therefore issued a statement to ths "Hand Sally Nall*, a summary of which wae published on 9th December,1950. I enclose a copy of the full statement, in eass you would ears to see this.

Tours faithfully.

26th January, 1955

Senator W.G. Ballinger,

House of Assembly,CAPE TO'TO.

Dear Senator Ballinger,

Thank you very much for your letter of January 13th, 1955 with your

observations on your election campaign. It is difficult for me to suggest what action you should take. You suggest that there were pressures and

intimidations and, in default of evidence, I can, of course, in no way make judgement on that. I do not know to what extent the "switch" between the time of nomination and election date was due to ministerial activity.

I do know that I have received recently letters from within the area of your constituency, which showed a greater sympathy for the Bantu Education Act

than I had anticipated. Whether this is due to pleasure with the new form of control given rural Africans over their schools or to other factors I do not know.

My only suggestion is that, i f you feel that there were definite "pressures" and you have evidence, you write an article on it . (The activities of Cabinet ministers in support of their own candidates is a

legitimate election procedure as you know). Otherwise, there would appear to be little that can be done.

vith all good wishes for a successful session.

Yours sincerely,

C ,
