COLONIAL DIPLOMATIC REPRESEHTATIOt Press Association —By Telegraph—Copyright. LONDON, February 15. (Received February 16, at 9 a.m.) In toasting Sir Hugh Denison (Commissioner for Australia in the United States) at the English-speaking Union’s lunch, Mr Evelyn Wrench (Secretary of the Overseas League) said that it was rather invidious that Australia, New Zealand, and South Africa had not the same diplomatic' representation at Washington as Canada. He was convinced that ultimately they would have tbdr own Ministers. This would not weaken blit rather strengthen the Empire. \ Sir Hnpli Denison, replying, said that if be wore in the chairman’s position ho would say what he did; “but 1 still have an obligation to tho Government not to express my views until I have discussed the whole thing with Mr Bruce. I can merely express the pious hope that our position will be materially strengthened as a result thereof.”
