. Sir,— When certain .delegates to the Empire Gonfexence of Chambers of I Commerce- ventured to comment oix local politics, tbere "was great indignation expresscd by our Ministers. ifc "was deseribed as "unwarranted interference witb our domeslic ai'i'aira." No sucb indignation is expressed ovur vthe complimentary opinious of the k Premier of Tasmania. Is ' tho "interr f erence » > therefore only applicable' to those who criticise? , Wiule protesting ; against adverse eritieism, .1 notice our Ministers indulgo freely in tbat saine tMug when abroad. Mr. Armstrong at Washington critieises and advises U.S.A. on its method of hanflling . disputes wilh labour. Mr. Semple is indulgiug on mueh Soeialist propaganda while enjoying -ihe. hospitality of Australia. He also eonfirms Mr. Eraser's promise tbat bis party Vill iclp tbe Socialists of Australia at tbe next eleetions over tbere. ' Surely this sdrt of tbing comes'badly from. men who protest ' against "undue interf erence witb our domestic affairs —*or doegn't tbis rule apply to tbem?—
.Yours, etc. ' ^ Hastings August 1G 1937,
