Mr. Bruce indicated that if Australia adopted an attitude of restricting the immigration of Southern Europeans it might bring about an awkward situation before the League of Nations, where, on two occasions, questions of the “White Australia” policy had been raised, and each time the Australian delegates had managed to brush it aside.
