New Zealand liners rnto cruisers. Should the othor colonies consider the scheme favourably, and of this there can bo no tioubt, the Empire ! will have afc its disposal fcha Raesb uioueted infantry in the world. Australasia providing 50,000, and South Africa 10,000, besides a naval reserve of 20,000 strong. This is not a scheme propounded by enthusi&stis, but irresponsible, Imperialists, but a scheme which has been referred to a Select [Parliamentary Committee by the Premier of a self-governing colony. That many details will have to be modified is obvious, but the faofe remains that we have advanced [another great step on our Imperial road. It is to be hoped that it will have the effect of hastening the reorganisation of the Imperial army.
