MR. MASSEY IN LONDON
| AN AFTER-DINNER SPEECH. [ (Rec. January 19, 11.40 p.m.) London, January 19. Mr. Massey was tendered a dinner at- the Junior Constitutional Club. In his speech lie said the war had taught the' British Empiro to think Imperially. If the statesmen of the United Kingdom did their duty, and were guided by tho lessons of the past, the British Empiro in fifty years would be strong enough to hold its own against any combination of nation? in the world. New Zealand had spared nothing to support the Mother Country, and had sent moro trained soldiers than Wellington commanded at Waterloo. Never was thero a time when there was more justification for optimism than at prosent. Ho believed tho end of the war would Come soon, but whatever happened the Empiro must sot its teeth and go on till tho enemy was broken and tho Kaiser's armies driven back to their own frontiers. —Aus.-N.Z. Cablo Assn.
