DOMINION'S OBJECT LESSON
(To the Editor.)
Sir,—Permit me to congratulate you on your leading article of the 2nd instant, and if the Dominion Premiers accomplish nothing else, the contact they have made with the realities and difficulties of Great Britain's foreign policy will have been time well spent. .We, or at least too many of us, have been over-ready to criticise the Old Country without knowing the pros and cons surrounding the actual problem. By far too much loose talk has been indulged in by public men who do their speaking first: and their thinking | afterwards. Apparently these wouldbe judges of British foreign policy are not capable of visualising the meaning of another European war and its ultimate repercussion on New Zealand. They have so long been removed from the scene of tragedy and so well protected that they have come to regard New Zealand as inviolate and immune from the horrors lately forced on other less fortunate countries. / Let us at least hope, that when Mr. Savage and Mr. Nash return to New Zealand they will not have forgotten this most tragic of all object lessons.—l am, etc. H.E.C. ~
