Godfrey Huggins United Party Godfrey Huggins United Party General elections were held in Southern Rhodesia on 7 November 1934, fourth elections since the colony of Southern Rhodesia was granted self-government.

Huggins succeeded in winning a landslide, defeating all but one of his Reform Party opponents.

In particular, Finance Minister Jacob Smit was a strong believer in conventional economics and opponent of Keynesianism.

The course of government led eventually to a confrontration in August 1934 with the left-wing of the party over reform to the Rhodesian railways.

However, the Acting Governor refused a dissolution on the grounds that the Assembly had many years left, and the government had not been defeated.
