No One Will Be Missing In Emergency
CSpecial to “Northern Advocate’'! WELLINGTON. This Day. In an interview yesterday, the Prime Minister, The Rt Hon M. J. Savage, referring to Mr MacDonald’s allusion to material factors that worked towards the continued association of the Dominions with Britain, said the most substantial foundation he knew of would be the investment of British capital within the British Commonwealth of Nations. That was the only lasting foundation for the principle outlined by Mr MacDonald. “I do not know of any disintegrating forces within the British Commonwealth. but I was always led to believe that to be within the British Commonwealth of Nations was to enjoy the right of self-government,” said Mr Savage.
“I think that Britain will find, when it comes to the pinch, that there will be no one missing so far as the Dominions are concerned,” added Mr Savage. referring to the suggestion by Mr MacDonald regarding the growth of nationalism in some of the Dominions.
