EMPIRE COUNTRIES
IGNORANCE OF GENERAL PUBLIC. OTTAWA, Canada. Deploring the lack of knowledge of each other which seemed to him to characterise the Dominions, Dr William Menzies Whitelaw, of the staff of the Dominion of Canada Archives appealed recently to an Ottawa audience to get better acquainted with the populations of other parts of the Empire. Dr Whitelaw recently returned from an extended visit to Australia and stated that the ignorance about Canada in that country only equalled our lack of knowledge of Australia. “The degree of ignorance of one another, on the part of the Dominions,” he said, “is rather appalling.”
