SIX-WHEELED MOTORS
DOMINION DELEGATES’
INTEREST
USEFUL IN DEFENCE AND COMMERCE BY Telegraph.—Press association COPYRIGHT. London, November 23. The “Daily Telegraph’s” military expert, commenting on the Dominion delegates’ interest in the six-wheeled motors, convertible to caterpillar traction, seen at Camberley, says “Manv times Australia’s sixty-two battalions of a citizen force of infantry would be utterly inadequate to defend the Australian Continent, but sixty-two battalions of machine-guns in cross-country carriers would be capable of such rapid concentration and movement that no invading army of infantry or cavalrv could hope to make effective headway. By encouraging their use for commercial purposes, for which they are most economical, the Dominions would help the British motor industry, and, while facilitating the mechanicalisation of both armies, it would be a valuable line of true Imperial co-operation.”
