' Tho handshake between Wellington and Blucher after Waterloo would, he said, exert its friendly ' influence through the centuries. With such memories before them, was it not, he asked, unrighteous to talk of war between the two countries?
Australia, Dr. Irmer declared, would need no Dreadnoughts if only they had 20,000 fighting men drawn from the ranks of Australians, Germans, Scandinavians, Russians, and Britons, bocause then none would dare trouble them.
