an Indisputable evidence that America
was preparing for the protection of her
Insular possessions on ths Pacific, and
that the natural sequence would be a
union for defense of the two English
speaking peoples
The people of all Australasia have ac
cepted the fleet as being as much their
fleet as though the union Jack were
floatlnr from the truck of every ship.
There is not a man or woman in Aus
tralasia who does not believe thit a
war with Asia for the posseaslnn of the
islands of the Pacific is inevitable.
They look upon America as their nat
ural ally, owins to our holding Insular
possessions within ths same danger

Though diplomatic In utterance, both
Bir Joseph Ward, premier of the domin
ion, snd Admiral Rcerrv. In their
change of official greetings, dwelt upon
the common Interests of the two peo

It was this deep racial respect for
America and rsdal distrust for Asia

There Is not an officer with ths fleet
