ANTI-BRITISH SENTIMENTS.
Sir, —1 read the references made in the United States Senate to Britain, and the hot words, foolish and more foolish, levelled at Britain. I fe 1 to wondering what some of our New Zealand friends of that country (and there are many) would have said of Britain if such words had been used conversely. I see the very same attitude asserting itself in America as obtained in Germany prior to the war, and always is Britain the target of the offending party. Trade prosperity, helped along by us here, as in other parts of the Empire, has brought upon the United States a • dominating character. Perhaps it would be wise for us to more vigorously consider buying Imperially, and even iri this to consider well, as so many foreign firms are using the Empire trading slogan, and adopting English names for their articles, that one is liable to be deceived.
