BRITAIN TIMID
0 IN PUBLICISING WORK OF HER OWN TROOPS MR. NASH’S CRITICISM. POSITION OF DOMINIONS. (By Telegraph—Press Association —Copyright) (Received This Day, 12.25 p.m.) LONDON, July 31. Criticising Britain’s timidness in publicising the work of her own troops, Mr Nash said: “Nothing can be more wrong than that Australians and New Zealanders always attack and the British always retreat. I know who at present are doing the fighting in Egypt and I do not know why they (the British) make the work of their troops such dull reading here. There is a natural urge in Britain to show how New Zealand, Australia and South Africa fight for the Old Country. We are not fighting for the Old Country in particular, but for a little bit more. They do not see, in Britain, that by giving full credit to the Dominions, they are dangerously belittling their own credit in the United States and elsewhere.”
