HIGH COMMISSIONERSHIP.
ASPIRANTS FOR OFFICE
DOMESTIC POLITICS ENDED ?
Received September 12, 12.50 p.m
LONDON, Sept. 11. The Daily Express says that Mr S. M. Bruce's acceptance of the High Commissionership has only been postponed for three weeks to allow his resignation from the Cabinet to reach Australia by air mail. It is known that five or six leading Commonwealth politicians, seeing no hope of advancement to the Cabinet, had been eager to secure the High Commissionership. Mr Bruce’s acceptance indicates that he has turned his back on domestic politics. Probably liis chance of attaining a high office in Australia became remote during his Resident Ministership. He lias conducted financial negotiations of the greatest importance to his Ministerial colleagues’ satisfaction.
