MR. THOMAS OPTIMISTIC
OVERCOMING DIFFICULTIES
(Beceived 23rd Sept., 1.30 p.m.)
EUGBY, 22nd September. The Secretary for the Dominions (Mr. J. H. Thomas) referred to complex problems before the Imperial Conference in a speech at the Wool Bosearch Conference in London to-day. He said: ' . - "There never was an Imperial Conference held in more difficult circumstances, but equally there never was a Conference that was more necessary. Each constituent part of the Empire is faced with its own domestic and economic problems. "We in tho Old Country are passing through a period unexampled in history. I have confidence, however, that the old spirit of grit and determination that saw the country through many of its difficulties in the I past will pull us through. ;
"At the Imperial Conference wo shall sit down, not with the desire to think for onrselves alone, but with a singleminded desiro to see how we can combine our brains and energies to make the best use of the Empire with' its unlimited potentialities and possibilities for the common good of all."
