AN IMPERIAL OUTLOOK
POSITION OF THE DOMINIONS. SOME INTERESTING COMMENT.' By Teleernph—rress Assn.—CopjTleht Received Jan. 16, 7.48 p.m. London, Jan. 13. Newspapers, commenting on a decision of the Appeal Court that naturalisation does not hold good ill Bri* tain, emphasise that despite the appar-t out incongruity, there underlies the paradox the very principle of self-deter-mination and voluntary interdependence in Imperial matters, which was recentlyproved to be beyond the comprehension' of the enemy.
It is pointed out that unless the time comes wlien there is representation ,of flie Dominions in an Imperial Parliament it must be impossible to encroach upon the privileges and powers which are essential to the full self-government of various parts of the Empire, and tip Courts must be bound to recognise the existence of local untransferable . al«' legiance, which is not only in accordance with tho statute law, but the fundamental principles of British Imperial rule.—Aus.-N.Z. Cable Assn.
