closely than ever blended.
Dr. McArthur of New York sums
the whole matter; up In these words,

Is proof asked? National defence,
common to the motherland and her
colonial offshoots is suggested. But
no. The great colonies agree to
spend money on a navy. But the
ships they pay for must remain in
their own waters for their own de
fence. It is made plain that a common
foreign policy, even a common de
fence, must be matters of arrange
ment as necessity arises, rather than
of definite obligation under a for
mal bond.
Again, Great Britain has evolved
a 8ystemof labor exchanges. Labor
failing to find employment ready Is
to be sent to other points demanding
It. The colonies are each and all
seeking Immigration, and welcome
selected immigrants of British birth.

the conference to extend the limits
