NEED OF DOMINIONS. AUSTRALIAN IMMIGRATION.
(iPer Press Association, Copyright.) LONDON, December 12. Mr E. A. Belcher, in an interview in the Press, paid a warm tribute to the Australian migration efforts. “ What the Dominions want,” he said, “ are . men "who are- willing and men who will work. There will be failures, of course, but we must remember that the percentage of failures who write complaining letters is infinitely higher than the percentage- of successes who write letters of thanks. ’ Any scheme which shows a definitely marked success of 60 per cent, is worth while.” Mr Belcher believes that some of the Australian schemes will reach 80 per cent.
