Against return, 83 per cent. In Britain: For return, 15 per cent. Against return, 85 per cent. The diplomatic correspondent of the “Daily Telegraph” foresees a change in the German campaign for colonies in the direction of discontinuing references to the “old colonies” and concentrating on a comprehensive demand for colonies equally as valuable as those held by other European States.
