DOMINIONS AND THE NAVY.
POTENT FACTOR FOR PEACE. Br Telegraph—Press Association—Copyright Melbourne, March 12. Commander Thring, who was appointed by the Commonwealth Government as assistant to the first Naval Board, in an interview,' said the action of the overseas Dominions in coming splendidly to the assistance of the Empire has had a wonderful effect in the United Kingdom, but has been even more marked on the Continent. The impression created* there was most valuable to the Empire. Britain would continue her shipbuilding just as if the Dominions were not assisting, but the assistance gives Britain exactly the preponderance desired. The outcome would probably bo a workable understanding, at any rate between Britain and Germany. Thus the Dominions will havo become a. potent factor for peace. The menace of Germany for years has been a very livo factor in the naval development of Europe, but tho, time is favourable for a better understanding I amongst the Powers. ,
