NARROW VISION.
MEANING OF EMPIRE. jY OABLB—PRESS ASSOCIATION- -COPYBIGF' Received June 27, 9.25 a.m. LONDON, June 26. In an interview, Mr. Janies Craigie, a member of the New* Zealand Legislative Council, who conferred with prominent Conservative and Libera] welfare was astounding. The mass of statesmen, said that the public’s ignorance of and indifference to Empire the iieople did not realise that the time was gone when Britain was the only important part of the Empire. British politicians must stir the people’s imagination and educate their minds to grasp the modern meaning of Empire. The north of England and Scotland showed more interest in the Empire than the south of England showed. He attributed this to the feverish rush of London life, ih which everybody was a specialist in his respective calling, with no ‘time to study wider interests. — Sydney Sun Cables.
