The Empire.
(UNITED PRESS A8800IAT1ON. ) (By Electric Telegraph—Copyright.) London, March 20. Lord Averbury (formerly Sir John Lubbock), addressing the Empire League, suggested the creation of a Colonial Council to advise the Secretary for Foreign Affairs, and which would ultimately, perhaps, deal with all legislation affecting the whole Empire. At the Empire League meeting, Mr Gopeland, Agent-General for N.S.W., referring to Lord Averbury's proposal, said the Motherland must give the colonies time. Australia was anxious to know what she could about Imperial defence.
