(AtJSTBALIAN-NEW ZEALAND CABLE ASSOCIATION.) (Received April 27, 8.20 a.m v .)
-> - LONDON, 26th April. It is understood that the Imperial Conference, including, the South African delegates, has unanimously accepted the preference proposals. , Mr. Lloyd George makes the announcement in the House of Commons, which will also include the decision on the Paris economic resolutions. The announcement has been hurried on owing to the determination of France to immediately denounce aE treaties with a view of shutting Germany oat of favoured nation treatment; and also to make a fresh treaty with Britain. ■ \ ■ s . ■ ; '
This action was rather resented-here, but Mr. Lloyd George conferred with \ftL Ribofc (Premier of France), and.a mutual decision was leached.
