PROTOCOL CONFERENCE
OBJECTIONS OF DOMINIONS
THE COLONIAL POINT OF VIEW USELESS SUDDEN CONCLAVES. (Bγ Cable. —rress Association. —Copyright.) | (Fieceiveil noon.) LONDON. December 2(1. The •'Times'' in a leader, says there j« nothing cither surprising or disappointing about the reluctance of the Dominion (Jovernmcnts to participate in a special .Imperial Conference on the protocol. The Dominions have their own afTnirs to attend to and cannot reasonably be expected to release their Premiers and other responsible Ministers for long periods whenever a problem, however important, comes up for settlement. Besides, the attitude of the Dominions to the protocol is sufficiently notorious in advance. The proposed conference could therefore decide nothing but what is already known. The business of tin Imperial Conference when it next meets should be something fnr larger and more far-reaching than the settlement of any current question. We should inaugurate once and for all a FVstem under which, not merely the protocol, but every other world problem could be discussed between its members with a knowledge and continuity which would, in fact, make an invitation to sudden conclaves as unnecessary as it is now proving impracticable. — (Times.)
