AUSTRALIA'S PROGRESS.
PRAISE BY MR AMERY-
(BT CABLE-PRESS ASSOCIATION*—COPraiGHT.) (AUSTRALIA!" AND 2C.Z. CABLE ASSOCIATION.) BRISBANE, November 10. Mr L. S. Amery (Secretary for State tor the Dominions), responding to a toast at, Maryborough, expressed wonderment at the rapid progress Australia had made in the course of barely a century. It was a wonderful piece of colonisation. He warned his audience to avoid the great evils which resulted from a mixture of races and of peoples of different planes of civilisation. They would certainly .have difficulties to face, which, to many other nations, had appeared insurmountable. They had gone a long way towards vindicating the White Australia policy. They had built up the sugar industry by white labour, which was a great achievement, as that industry hitherto had been regarded as capable of development only by black labour.
