CO-PARTNERS IN SEA DEFENCE.
——^—4- — l * AUSTRALIA AND NEW ZEALAND. BOTH MUST BE EQUAL. / EPOCH-MARKING CRUISE OF THE EMPIRE. " j jßy Telegraph—Press 1 Association-Ooßfriijlit | Sydney, Dwinber 17. •..'i'Tlici''Sydney Morning Herald" says: | ''Australians., .will, .welcome the decision of. theiNews'.'Zealand Government, in favour, of a New; Zealand Navy, because it is ■ the ..'only ' scheme ' which fits in perfectly,,with, the' Australian ideal of a Pacific'fleet composed of Australian, Canadian'," New Zealand, and British sections; .but Australians will know that- the one' thing itioro than any other which, will prejudice the success of the scheme will be any attempt 011 Australia's part.to claim any sort of ascendancy or control over whatever force New Zealand decides upon. If this great scheme is ever to see the light, Australia and New Zealand must enter as equals. The success of New Zealand's infant project is far too important to tho success of tho Anglo-Saxon races in the Pacific, for us to imperil by any short-sighted claim of ascendancy. This is a danger well realised in Australia, and one Now Zealand need never fear. ~
