NEW ZEALAND TROOPS
PRAISED BY MR. ATTLEE. EMPIRE RELATIONSHIPS. LONDON. May 14. “The New Zealanders had put a most marvellous finale to a great and dramatic performance,” said the Deputy Prime Minister, Mr. C. R. Attlee, referring to the African campaign, in a speech on the Dominions' contribution to the war effort. “The Dominions,” he said, “are treading a path which leads, not to independence, but to interdependence. When people grow up their family affections remain. That is abundantly true of the Dominions. It is in times of stress that our family ties grow so strong. The effect' of the war on the Dominions has been to increase their national development, without in the slightest degree impairing the unity of the Commonwealth.”
