THE LUST FOR TERRITORY
AUSTRALIA, A STORM CENTRE. 1 I
By Electric Telegraph—Copyright] [Uniter Press Association ] 1 p.ra.) Sydney, December 31. Sir George speaking at a Vtnquei at Bathurst on Tuesday, said Australia would become the stormcentre of the world. As far as an ambitious foreign nation was concerned iq the lust for territory, Australia would make a splendid; ready-made colonial Empire for an European nation, and a genial continent for a nation in the east. "When such danger threatened, there was only one hope and one Power which could shield them; and that Power was their own race, and the hope that which flew their own flag. The Antiimmigrafionists are the most infamous land-grabbers in the whole world. In strengthening the power of the Empire, they were adding strength to their own preparations. They would have a glorious time when Australia was strong enough to defend herself.
