Abstract
Tuesday 28 January 1958 was a tepid 20.8 degrees C in St George's
Street, Cape Town. Not far off, the Houses of Parliament
were considerably hotter. Generator of this heat was none
other than the 'Famous Lawyer' and former Native Senator, Mr
Hyman Meyer Basner. Basner had just bombarded every MP,
including the Senate, with copies of an affidavit rebutting
the Minister of Native Affairs' attack upon his integrity
the day before.
