RECIPROCITY.
AUSTRALIAN ATTITUDE,
OPEN DOOR FOR DOMINION
ADVOCATED.
By Telegraph—Pi'css Association-Copyright Sydney, April 4. Tho "Sydney Morning Herald," in commenting on tho question of reciprocity between New Zealand and Australia, says: "It is a'little unfortunate that tho conference is being held during tho Federal election campaign. This pust inevitably make tho deliberations of tho conference loom less largo in the public cyo than its importance warrants. This is a pity, for if Australia aspires to bo a nation in fact, as well as in name, she should give more thought to external relations. Our commercial relations with New Zealand aro anomalous. We allow (3rent 'Britain preference in regard to certain imports, whilo wo confront New Zealand with the samo tariff wall as Germany and Japan. / So far as sentiment is concerned, New Zealand has equal claims with Britain; so far as propinquity goes sho has greater claims." .'■ .' Tho paper points out the advantages of reciprocity in connection with certain products, und urges the importanco and necessity of reciprocal action in rcspcct to defence matters.
