N.Z. INDUSTRIAL POLICY UNDER FIRE : BID TO STAND ALONE
(N.Z. P.A.—Router —Copyright.) LONDON, Feb. 9. Some Dominions are trying too much to stand alone industrially instead of co-operating with the rest of the Empire, said the Lord Mayor of London, Sir George Aylwen, speaking at an Overseas League function.
Sir George Ayhven said he hadi noticed, particularly in New Zealand and to a less extent in Australia, that there was a danger of concentrating too much on some industries to the detriment of primary industry. This might be dangerous to the Empire as a whole. Sir George Aylwen said that some Dominions could never stand alone. No part of the Empire could stand alone economically. Co-operation was the only saviour of all. “We should either become a British Empire together or say at once ‘everyone for himself and the devil take the Empire.’ '*
