PLENTY OF MONEY.

WHAT AUSTRALIA COULD J DO. United Press Association —By Eleotrio Telegraph Copyright Received June 1, 9.30 p.m. LONDON, June 1. Sir George Reid, Commonwealth High Commissioner, referring to the West Australian loan, said Australia, if put to the test, could find her own money for all her needs. But the more British capital converted into Australian securities the better for the British capitalist, for Australia and the Empire. Mr Moore, the Westralian Premier, also referring to the same loan, said West Australia would come to London ih the next year or two for four or five millions. West Australia was now more solidly and genuinely prosperous than m its palmiest days of the gold boom. He instanced the wheat production, and said the State would soon share with Tasmania the world's fruit market. The immediate and pressing neces- v sity was population. His last audience with the iate King revealed to him the profound interest King Edward took in Dominions, and his intimate knowledge even of such a remote State as West Australia. King George, who received him as the Prince of Wales, was a great Imperialist, and no one knew better and understood better the overseas people.
