BLACK & WHITE CLASH IN AUSTRALIA

NOT DUE FOR A CENTURY

“The Isolation of Australia” w r as the subject of a paper read before thq geography section of the Science Conference yesterday bv Dr. J. V. Danes. After dealing, with the principal factors upon which tliQ isolation of Australia w’as dependent, Dr. Danes said it was well-known and generally appreciated all over the world that for the study of the effects of modern social legislation Australia was an admirably adapted field, as many , influences which in other countries easily complicated the problems were a priori excluded, or could be easily followed and determined. Ho had no doubt that tho scientific interest in the present and future development of Australia would be strongly intensified in the near future. . In the course of the subsequent discussion. Mr. C. T. Salmon stated that Australia was in a unique position in so far as the clash which was predicted between the white and coloured races was concerned. Personally, he did not think the clash would occur for about one hundred vears. By that time Australia should, navq a population of about 10 million people, and ho suggested that the country would then be in the position of what ho called a world-determinant factor — able to menace tho East in the same way as the East menaced the Vest.
