COLONIAL OFFICE POLICY.
AN INDICTMENT FROM THE SOUTH SEAS.
Received April 22, 10.31 a.m. SYDNEY April 22. Mr Forsayth, a settler of New Britain, who is visiting Sydney, states that the German methods of colonisation are far more progressive than those of Great Britain. They carefully foster settlers, while the British authorities give no assistance and let the settlers help themselves. The labour difficulty keeps back development. Nearly all the labour comes from uerman New Guinea, and the company which controls that possession restricts recruiting to 200 natives yearly.
