“NO COUNTRY. NO FLAG.”
If any foreign Power, European or Oriental, wants to fight England, and thinks it has a good chance of victory, it will attack us, notwithstanding all the frothy ebullitions of Socialist orators, says the Christchurch Press. These men who talk so glibly about recognising no flag and having no country to defend ought to have to live for a time in the countries which England must regard as at least potential foes, and against which her precautions of defence are taken. Safe under the British flag, which they apparently despise, they can now afford to indulge in loud, cheap talk, of which all the good that can be said is that it must open the eyes of the workers generally to the dangerous paths in which the Socialists would lead them.
