"Ideal is to Be Free and To Remain Free"
Windhoek, May 7.
An appeal to the South Africans to maintain a (frm grip on freedom was made in a statement issued today by the German African Party in South-West Africa, which is composed of naturalized Germans, mostly German ex-servicemen, who reject the Nazi system in its entirety.
The statement says that Herr Hitler does not only want South-West Africa. Only. South Africa can revive the inflated German exchequer. The Party views with astonishment the short-sighted attitude of a section of the Union population in South-West and South Africa, towards the present situation in Africa and Europe. The South Africans are asked to remember the Germany of a previous age "where right and justice were the supreme law."
"To be sure," the statement adds, we should not fight the Hitler system it it brought blessings on our old home. The ideal of the German African Party is to be free and to remain free."—Reuter.
