DEFENCE AND TRADE
Mr. G. W. Forbes’s Empire Day Interview By Telegraph—Press Assn.—Copyright LONDON, May 24. Most newspapers draw attention to Empire Day and its special significance during Jubilee year. The “Morning Post” publishes interviews with the Prime Ministers. Mr G. W. Forbes says, “Imperial defence is closely linked with the Empire 's future, but I can see no need for drastic alteration of tho present system. Tho British Government is going ahead steadily with its policy of defence and has, in my view, done all possible in the cause of peace. “The establishment of a land settlement scheme in New Zealand would merely increase the production of goods for already-glutted markets. A solution of the marketing problem would consolidate the Empire more than anything else.
“I see no royal road to such an end,” added Mr Forbes, “but believe that we shall find at least part of the way in the present talks in London.”
