Canon Haywood Harris At<br />
Maritzburg Meeting<br />
Sir,-It seems to me that the presence of Canon<br />
Heywood HarrIs on the platform at MarItzburg on<br />
Saturday last\requires some explanation. The meetmg<br />
was calle,l by the Indian Congress to protest<br />
against the legislation now beIng mtroduced against<br />
the ASIatic races, but an allusIOn to this was made<br />
by the Canon. Instead he repeated some common<br />
ChrIstIan platItudes about "l"lghteousness" and<br />
.. princIple, " and laId great stress on .. team-work"<br />
I.e. co-operation.<br />
Judging however, from a report of this gentleman~<br />
words in the Nalal W~/ness of 15th Oct. 192.5,<br />
his homIly on " prInciple" falls very fiat, and he<br />
hImself stands convICted of inconsIstency and insmcel"lty.<br />
HIS words as reported are: "The Indiar:,<br />
natIve and coloured people were encroaching on<br />
many of the ordInary avenues of work, and it was<br />
becommg Increasingly ddficult to place all the European<br />
boys. He wan Led the school-boy of to-day to<br />
grasp that the whILe people would only hold theIr<br />
posItIon In work and In government In this country<br />
so long as they pt'oved themselves bettE'r able than<br />
the other races to fill the vanous posts." No "teamwork"<br />
between ~he races here, but cut-throat competitIOn<br />
on raCIal lines'<br />
