BRITAIN AND AMERICA
THE BULWARK OF CIVILISATION. SPEECH BY SIR AUCKLAND GEODES, (By Telegraph.—Press Assn.—Copyright.) (Australian and N.Z. Cable Association.) NEW YORK, Juno 15. Sir Auckland Gerldes, speaking at Princeton University commemoration, said the greatest calamity which could befall the world was a rift between the Englishspeaking peoples. Civilisation then would be destroyed. The future of the world really depended upon a free interchange of thought and a frank understanding between English and American university men. lie continued: "I believe the world war was really inevitable because of the economic position of Europe, but out of the turmoil will evolve a saner and nobler civilisation.”
