MISCELLANEOUS.
LONDON, May 11. •Speaking at the Newspaper Press Fund dinner, Sir Thomas Mackenzie urged public men to visit the Dominions instead of remaining at home in snug and contented ingnorance of such vital questions as the future of the late German colonies in the Pacific. If the Empire is kept together, it must bring to its councils men who voice, the aspirations of the peoples of the Dominions, the importance of which public men should realise. Germany had been allowed to get a grip on the throats of the Dominions and almost to strangle them. Three battalions of America's new army marched through the West End, great crowds cheering them. The King inspected the Americans at Buckingham Palace.
The Minister of Agriculture has abandoned his intention to send a Meat Export Trade Commission to Australia.— Aus.-N.Z. Cable Association.
