LORD LOVAT'S TOUR.
GOOD RESULTS EXPECTED. co-off:ration in migration. Australian Press Association—Uuited Scrvico LONDON, Oct. 10. Tho annual conference of British passenger agents is sitting in London. Today Mr. Charles Wright, senior member and secretary, contributed papers. In these ho predicted important results from Lord Lovat's present tour, which he said was calculated to promote complete understanding with tho Dominions. Lord Lovat was romarkably well-informed on migration and animated by tho sym pathv and goodwill of the Dominions whoso co-operation was desired for mutual interests.
Lord Lovat had already made important recommendations affecting Canada, and it was anticipated that he would make equally important ones affecting Australia and New Zealand. Mr. Wright expressed the opinion that thero were opportunities for tens of thousands of people in tho Dominions but, to ensure tho development of their resources and industries, also a continuity of employment, it was necessary to export capitalists and industrialists contemporaneously with I workers. It was obviously to the interests of the Dominions to offer opportunities to all three. It would be to Britain's advantage to divert to migration part of the £2,000,000 spent every week on unemployment pay and charitable relief.
