During the year race relations have taken a turn for the worse. The Institute of Race Relations has a very important role in those matters. Its attitude is that economic integration counteracts the segregation which would in the long run create the ruin of South African civilization. In the urban area the Group Areas Act does not solve the difficulties of the coexistence of various racial elements. Housing facilities are inferior to present needs. The commission of the social and economic development of rural areas pursues its enquiries. Due to economic integration, territorial segregation becomes impossible. Non-Europeans form an increasing past of the labor force. The Commission for study of industrial legislation made three recommendations on the possibility of a greater coordination of wages, the abolition of mixed trade unions and the reorganization of African ones. Migratory movements into towns are regulated by placement bureaus. Professional aptitudes are classified into managerial, mechanical and non-mechanical. The number of agricultural workers has increased. Recent policy increased the rigor of the law against Africans. Delinquency is quite high, and health conditions should be much more improved. While the life expectancy is 66 years for the European, it is only 44 for the colored Africans. Tuberculosis and under-nutrition are the principal causes of sickness. D. Bystryn.
