Nowhere In the world wag there Vnlckcr understanding of this war's significance than In Australia. With enormous surplusage of wheat, wool, sugar," beef, and fruits, Aus tralia has been forced to erect storage-houses ,end to Isk millions In losses because of lack of transporta tion. For the Importation of much needed manufactured articles she has &ad to rely to a great extent upon the uncertain visits of sailing-vessels.
