The South African Government is considering a measure banning various political uniforms, it was learned today. The measure will probably not be introduced at this session of Parliament since the Government is awaiting the results of a similar law which went into effect recently in England.

Dr. Conradie, administrator for Southwest Africa, is discussing with the Union Government the steps necessary to prevent alien interference in Southwest internal politics, it was reported. It is expected that a ban on political uniforms will soon be introduced in Southwest Africa by proclamation.

Newspapers predicted that an additional measure to prevent aliens from becoming members of any political organizations in Southwest Africa would be introduced.
