JOBS FOR PRINCE.

BRITISH RENAISSANCE. LEADER AGAINST REVOLT. ‘.‘We left England free, but return to find her under blackmail, grimly and. intensely waiting A. J. Cook’s threat of revolution. “Those working for England’s salvation badly want a leader, and there is none to whom they can turn more confidently than the Prince of Wales,” says G ; . Ward Price, in the Sunday Pictorial. Close personal contact during a seven months’ tour has convinced me that the public is too engrossed by the Prince’s charm and sportsmanship, not reaHsing that hi s extensive experience gained in the world tours has added to his sterner qualities. ACHIEVED AIANHOOD. “The Prince has definitley achieved manhood with' self-confidence and a strong-will. . As long as the most serious internal crisis that has faced England for generations remains a peaceful political issue the Prince must stand aloof. But in the event of open Communist revolt he is the ideal leader of a revival of true British patriotism. His activities are less limited than the King’s, yet the Prince carries all the Throne’s historic prestige, and understands and sympathises will all classes. “He knows the Empire as he knows England. Again and again during the tour I heard him asking about the possibilities of emigration and the development and sale of British products. It won’t surprise me in the least if the Prince’s investigations and reflections •shortly .reach the nation in the form of an energetic, sincere and straightforward sepecli, urging all classes to start a British renaissance and dispel the diseases of soul and body from which the country is suffering.” MIGRATION WORK. The Daily Graphic condemns Air. W ard Price’s suggestion that the Prince of Wales would make a valuable leader in the eve tit of a general s trike, and says: “Although not a Socialist, the King has shown Air Ramsay MacDonald and other Labour members marked favour, because be i s the King of organised Labour, as well as of other classes. We are able to manage the Communists without- dragging in the Prince, whose most useful; work would be in helping migration. “The world’s progress in transport .and communication makes Australia hardly /more remote than the Shetland Islands. If extensive iron deposits or a goldfield were discovered in the Orkneys, Britishers naturally would flock there, yet far more durable wealth can be exploited in Australia. “The Prince’s travelling has been invaluable. He could tell us about Australia’s enormous sub-continent, overlying a vast underground lake which, if tapped, would become as rich and populous as the middle west of America. It could be called Prince Edward’s Land, and its settlers Prince Edward’s men.”
