PEACE IN PACIFIC.
THE NEW TREATIES. IMPORTANCE TO AUSTRALASIA. By Telegraph.—Press Association, Wellington, March 27. Interviewed on his arrival in the Tahiti from the Washington Conference, Senator G. F. Pearce (Australia) expressed keen gratification at the ratification of the Pacific Treaty by the American Senate. The majority was very gratifying. In view of all the circumstances he was sure all the other treaties would be ratified, with probably larger majorities. He declined to speak before returning to Australia upon the particular effects of the treaty upon the Commonwealth and Dominion, but said no countries had more reason to be gratified and thankful for the deliberate acceptance of the policy of peace in the Pacific. He expressed the view that direct representation of Australia and New Zealand at such a conference was absolutely essential, particularly because of the influence representatives were able to bring to bear upon the British delegation. Nobody from the United Kingdom, without any reflection on their ability, could adequately represent Australasia owing to the different environment.
