LORD MILNER'S CONFESSION.
+_ FAITH IN EMPIRE'S DESTINY. WORLD-WIDE CIRCULATION. LONDON, July 29. Among the late Lord Milner's unpublished documents was an inspiring confession of faith in the destiny of the British ' Empire, entitled "Credo." He said: "If I am an imperialist,' ft is because it. has been the destiny of our race owing to our insular position, and supremacy at sea, to strike fresh roots in distant parts ofthe world. "I. feel that Canada, Australia, New. Zealand arid other parts of the Empire are as much my country as Surrey or Yorkshire." Lady Milner has permitted the Times to publish the document, which has attracted interest throughout tne country. Lord ; Stonehaven, at the luncheon at the Royal Colonial Institute, said that'he thought Lord Milner's "Credo" opened a new page in the Empire's history. It should be taught in every elementary school of the Empire. Actually hundreds of thousands of copies of "Credo" will be circulated throughout British schools, colleges and universities.
