-By Electric Telegiaph.—Copyright.) (Austialian & N.Z. Cable Association. LONDON, June 13. The Daily Telegraph, commenting on the Dominion secretaryship, thinks tiiat the new arrangement, while offering advantages at present, is unlikely to he perpetuated. The responsibilities of belli the Dominions and the Colonial Office are hound to increase until they become too heavy for, one mail to- cc>nplete. The divorce between the Coh.i ml Office and the Department of State for t he Dominion Affairs may prove o.dy a matter of time. The Daily Chronicle says: "We co not think the plan by which the r vv Secretaryship of State for t 1m? Dominions is combined with the Colonial Secretaryship in the hands of a single Minister ought to he continued for long. It. might have been better from the viewpoint of satisfying dominion sentiment, not to have combined them even lomporarilv.” LONDON, June 12. Presiding at a meeting of the Victoria League at the Guildhall, Mr Am cry said the recognisation of the Colonial Office would make it easier for the Secretary of State for Dominion Affairs to visit those dominions and deal with matters of interest at- first- .hand.
