A ------ r : ---- REPLIES TO AMENDMENT OF LABOR MEMBERS To Withold Assent to Bill of Prem- ier Botha, of South Africa Would De a Very, Dangerous Thing. London, Feb. 13.--"You could easily smash the British enipire in a day's debate in parliament if you tried to interfere with the autonomy granted in its various parts," was the gist of the reply given yesterday by Lewis Harcourt, secretary for the colonies, to the amendment moved by 'the dabor inenbers in the house' of commons to the address in reply to the king's speech. The labor mémbers suggested that the goveriment withhold its as sent to the bill of Premier Louis Botha of South Africa indemnifying the South African government for its act in deporting the labor leaders af- ter the recent general strike there. Without defending the action of the South Afriean government, Mr. Harcourt pointed out that there were only 1,250,000 whites . to 6,000,000 South African natives, who, when work had ceased at the mines, became hungry and danger- ous; He added: "That is 'the sort of volcano on whieh everyone was sitting in South Africa," Me. Harcourt declined to advise tho king to withhold his sanction from the bill if it passed, and de- clared that h advice would be en- tirely 'unjus ble, He urged the speakers during the debate to be careful of the sensitiveness of the self-governing dominions and to re- frain from saying a word in deroga- tion of an autonomous government.
