IMPERIAL PARLIAMENT
THE AUSTRALASIAN DEFENCE PROPOSALS. STATEMENTS BY THE TIMES. By Cable—Press Association—Copyright. London, March 20. Replying to questions in the House of Commons, Messrs. Asquitli and Harcourt declined to be drawn into discussing Sir Joseph Ward's Imperial scheme. The Times says that the Australian delegates to the Imperial Conference will have to bestir themselves if they are to maintain the reputation for eloquence and fervid Imperialism which made Mr. Deakin a dominant figure in 1907. The Times says that New Zealand has often led the way in Imperial politics, and trusts Sir Joseph Ward will persevere in the effort to advance the fundamental object of the conference the closer union of the scattered nations of the Empire.
