AGALYST BRITAIN'S LACK OF CO OPERATION.
By Gable—Press Association—Copyright Received 21, 9.40 p.m. London, April 21.
The Standard is informed on (high authority that divergences have arisen between the Home Government and Australia and New Zealand, the latter insisting that there is no necessity for their being represented on the Committee of Imperial Defence unless theTe is full co-operation between themselves and the 'Mother Country in the Pacific. It is understood that Mr. Asquith will shortly make a full statement in the House of Commons. Australia and New Zealand take the view that Imperialism is above party politics, and cannot be controlled exclusively by the British Cabinet.
The position is so strained that .the whole conception of Imperialism may be modified.
The. discussion is being carried on through Mr. Harcourt and the GovernorGeneral of Australia. New Zealand will not accept the Government's interpretation of the Anglo-Japanese Alliance.
