DOMINION IN DANGER OF ATTACK
(Rec. 11 p.m.) WASHINGTON, May 27. “New Zealand is unquestionably in danger of attack, but it is extraordinarily well prepared,’’ said the New Zealand Minister, the Hon. W. Nash, in a speech to the Women’s National Press Club. This Mr Nash credited largely to United States aid. He said that 240,000 New Zealanders were under arms—one-sixth of the population—many of whom were serving overseas, but New Zealand was not asking that they return to guard her, because she realized they were fighting the same war wherever they were serving.
