“How can England give either Australia or New Zealand any preference over the Argentine when we have six hundred million sterling invested in South America?”—This was a remark made to Mr W. S. Park, of Levin, when in England lately, by a well-known journalist. The Now Zealander had commented upon the slow progress that the principle of Preference was making in England., The 'reply crystallised the real trouble into a sentence and helped the Levinite to understand the real significance of a recent remark during the Prince of Wales’s visit that “the Argentine is really a British settlement outside the Empire.”
