LORD ROBERTS.
CANNOT VISIT AUSTRALIA
United Press Association.—By Electric Telegraph.—Copyright. London, June 8.
Lord Roberts has written to Colonel Unsworth regarding Mr Deakin’s suggestion that he visit Australia. He declared: “I would be delighted to see the country and meet many of the gallant fellows who fought under me in South Africa. I recognise the valne of Australia’s example of readness to accept universal military training, bat because England is not educated to this necessity, I must remain Home and continue my efforts and urge them to follow Australia’s example. ”
