To all members of the Executive Committee, All African Convention.
Sir,
You will remember that the All African Convention last month at Bloemfontein decided that a deputation s h o u l O e n t to Cape Town as soon as Parliament meets. Parliament is due to meet on the ^4tn _ of the present month. Under the circumstances the Executive Lom: mittee should travel to Ckpe Town as so o n as possible to deliver the findings of the"Convention to the Government.
The officers of the Executive arc five in number, President, Vice President, General Secretary, Recording secretary and the Treasurer. In addition to these it seem s desirable that each Province should send its fiv e rf‘oresentativQ.s as chosen last rcijntn. Tht Ravelling elpences will am,int t? £300. The date will be wired by me at Cr.pe Town as soon as I an fix it with the Government and am goi'~fr to ask for Monday, Ft binary 3rd, nex^, if possible.
If each Province can raise and forward a sum of £60 to theTreasurer, Dr. J. S. Moroka, P. 0. Thaba Nchu, it will cover theemergency. From to_day t,ill the 3rd February my address will be 72 Keerom Street, Cape -L'own.
I hereby make an earnest a immediately in any way you see sympathetic Europeans, and to a be crossed All African Conven
ppeal for these funds to be raised it, especially by appeal to 1 Bantu everywhere, cheques should ion, per Dr. J. S. karoka.
Yours, in the cause uf the African race,
(Signed) D.D.T. JABAW.

\i rfc uyj|M r°if",liat100-pcr Dr-J-S- Mof°-Ji \ 3rd* Feby‘ 193 •^ very much concerned with the raising of the 5 million
shillings in view of the long and expensive struggle before us. Unfortunately, the funds of the Convention do not permit at the moment of the employment of a full time organiser other than a man who could be paid on a commission basis provided the margin is as liberal as possible.
After discussing the matter with the General secretary,I find that he is in a position to undertake the work and I have suggested to him the following terms, for which I ask your approvaland confirmation, viz:- „. . .
That he shall be paid 33 1/3 per cent from all collections taken during his tours plus actual expenses for travelling
Mr. Msimang accepts these terms provided he will be assured of your co-operation and active assistance in the organisation of meetings and in the carrying out of his programme.
Kindly favour me with an expression of your opinion hereon in the course S T the next few days and what you propose to do to assist him in your respective Provinces and districts0
Yours faithfully,

Dear Sir,Your telegraph of the 31st ultimo reading:-
"Order paper sets Bills February 13th "Whom does Executive meet February 3rd "What about Bar of House "Transvaal advise postponing engagement "to about 13th. Wire reply"
went astray and only got into the hands of Prof. Jabavu late on Saturday evening.
Owing to the interview with the Prime Minister which was fixed for 10 a.m. this morning and other pressing matters due to the arrival of the members of the Executive from other Pronvinces, same could not be replied to early this morning but I have this day sent you a telegraph reading:-
"Your wire Friday went astray received late "Saturday. Interviewed Prime Minister today "continuing tomorrow. Postponement impossible.
On the face of your telegraph it would appear that you are not acquainted with the proceedure which ie that before any steps could be taken, the Minister in charge of the Bill should be interviewed and if not successful then steps be taken to petition the House for leave to appear before the Bar of the House. In the circumstances we had to see the Prime Minister this morning and are seeing him again tomorrow. The Prime Minister is prepared to negotiate with us and to abandon all the other sections of the Representation of Natives Bill provided we agree that a change in the present system is necessary. The Deputation withdrew in order to find a way for persuading him to postpone the Bill to enable us to consult the Convention.We are seeing him again tomorrow morning at 10 a.m. and hope to discover a way of persuading him without compromising our resolution. I may add that he has definitely told us that he is at the moment proceeding with this Bill and that if he succeeds he may consult us on the Land Bill, otherwise the Bills will be dropped.
