CO-OPERATION IN DEFENCE.
NO CAST-IRON PLANS WANTED. Sir B. H. Carlile praised the virile courage of colonists in the face of: difficulties, and their, prido .in their institutions.
The Hon. T. Mackenzie, in responding to the toast of "The Dominions," suggested co-operation between tho colonial and British authorities in training emigrants. '
Captain Collins,' representing the Commonwealth, said that no one now spoke of disintegration of the Empire The only difference was botween those who believed in some form of Britannic alliance and those desiring closer legislative union.
Lord Haldane, replying to the toast of "The Chairman," said the War Office had done something by the exchange of officers, which would result in an exchange of expert knowledge of a common plan.of defence. The secret of dealing with the Empiro was to have no east-iron plan. Exchange of views and ideas would lead to the growth of common unity and action. The Judicial Committee was an important link in the Empire, and was. Imperial in reality. There was no reason why it should not sit in the oversea Dominions.
