DOMINION GUARDS.
PROJECT FINALLY ABANDONED. By Telegraph.—Press Assn.—Copyright. London, March 10. A section of the Press is reviving Mr. Churchill’s Dominions Guards project, declaring that the' Dominion Premiers will discuss the scheme at the approaching conference. The War Office states that the scheme was finally abandoned in 1919 after serious consideration from every viewpoint, on the ground that it was impracticable, and the subject is not likely to be officially revived. The War Office authorities are not antagonistic to the suggestions, on the contrary they are eager to strengthen Empire-wide views in every direction, but the difficulties of varying rates of -pay and the Dominions’ natural desire to control their own nationals in the event of war far outweight the scheme’s possible advantages.—Aus.-N.Z. Cable Assn.
