by Kevin Holland
The riots of African women, the resignation of the Province's Executive Committee, and the Natal-led split in the South African Opposition have brought Natal more into the news recently than at any time since the siege of Ladysmith.
Mr. Holland analyses the trends behind these events, which he believes apply to South Africa as a whole.

Chairman of the Cotton Board

The reorganisation of the cotton industry is proceeding on entirely novel lines.

Sir Raymond Streat examines its prospects of success and speculates on its possible application elsewhere.
