EMPIRE SETTLEMENT

LORD LOVAT’S TOUR IMPORTANT RES ULIS PROPHESIED. Press Association—By Telegraph—Copyright, LONDON, October 10. (Received October 11, at 11.5 a.m.) At the annual conference of British passenger agents Mr diaries Wright, the senior member and also tlio secretary, contributed a paper prophesying important results from Lord Lovat s tour, which, he stated, was calculated to promote complete understanding with the dominions. Lord Lovat was remarkably well informed on migration, avid was animated with sympathy and goodwill towards tiio dominions, whose co-operation was desired for mutual interests. Lord Lovat had already made important recommendations affecting Canada, and it was anticipated that i.e would make equally important ones affecting Australia and New Zealand. M • Wright expressed the opinion that there were opportunities for tens of thousands of people in the dominions, but to ensure the development of tho resources and industries, also continuity of employment, it was necessary to export capitalists and industrialists contemporaneously with workers, ft was obviously to the interests of tho dominions to offer opportunities to all three, and it would be to Britain’s advantage to divert to migration a part of the £2,000,000 spcii* weekly on unemployment pay and charitable relief.—Australian Press As-sociation-United Service.
