JbUiNIKJiM, AO.gUBI ». Dord Fisher, in a preface to a lecture on the Committee of Imperial Defence delivered to the United Service Institution in March, states that if the function and potentialities of the Committee are clearly grasped the problem of Imperial defence is not insoluble. Two conditions are essential. First: No concealment of policy or intentions between the British Premier and the Prime Ministers of the Dominions, and secondly, that no new departure in foreign policy involving Imperial interests be taken without tho approval of the Dominions. Lord Esher suggests annual, or triennial, visits of the Prime Ministers in July with a series of meetings of tho Committee of Defence, the Prime Ministers, between the conferences, to be kept informed of events by the British Premier and the Committee’s secretariat
