Professor \Yood, of Sydney University, President of Die New South 'iyales AntiWar League', in'an' article published in the Manchester Guardian, states that a very great minority in Apsfralia fire opposed to the war, chiefly consisting of Irish residents, the labor party, shearers and rouseabouts.
He adds thqt racial unity and profundity of igho~ran.ee are the real causes of thp war. The chief reason of Australia’s support, he cjeclares, is that the Colonies consider their help is a gpad investment and a good advertisement. Few volunteers were inspired with selfsacrifice. Most were prompted by sheer love of adventure, and a desire to escape the_monotony of bush life.
