GERMANY’S AIM

AH ANTI-BRITISH SYNDICATE THE IMPERIALISM OF THE TEUTON. By Telegraph—Pres* Association—Copyright Australian and N.Z Cable Association NEW YORK, October 9. Officials in Washington ve interested in the latest phase of Teuton Imperialism, as voiced in the ''Cologne Gazette.” This paper recently pointed out that Germany has the choice of being a full partner in a future “syndicate for the division of the ■world” or of being a despised outsider. It pictures the syndicate as a political combination of Germany, Russia and Japan; but Great Britain must be defeated before Germany can become a full partner. The “Gazette” clumsily outlines “North American Imperialism” as expelled from' the Pacific, and adds: “Perhaps, later, the future North American-Far Eastern line of separation will run straight to the Australian Continent, which, as is widely known, Japan covets.” CONSCRIPTED CANADIANS ORDERED TO JOIN THE COLOURS.
