General Delarey Killed in South African Conflict
General Delarey and General Beyers were in a motor car stopped by police near Johannesberg. Delarey was fatally shot, Beyers unharmed. A separate shooting of Dr Grace occurred on the Reef. Beyers had resigned over opposition to sending commandos to German South-West Africa. Smuts defended the government and urged unity amid war.
