FOREIGN POLICY.
'Ih a recent address at Aberdeen Sir Patrick Duncan the Governor- General designate of South* Africa, said: 'You are the oldest and strongest memher of the Commonwealth. You live nearer to Europe; nearer to the scene of battlefields; nearer to the scenes of those international strifes and controversies which are tearing Europe apart to-day. Do'not forget these free peoples overseas who are gathered in assooiatian with you. I hope you will not let these controveries in Europe pull you into commitments, even possibly mto conflicts, in which it will be difficult for the Dominions to follow you. It may be well that a more fundamental decision is Ioomrng up than any that has eonfronted us since 1920. Is it really necessary that the whole world should remain tributary to Europe, so that if, as in 1914, an anarchic Europe once more stumbles into war, the whole world has to stumble into tbe inferno after it? " — The Round Table.
