IMPERIAL PROBLEMS.
CONFERENCE SUGGESTED. PARLIAMENT PREMATURE. By Cable.— Press Association. — Copyrii/.'it. Australian and N.Z. Cable Association. LONDON, December 6. The Right Hon. W. F. Massey, in an interview in the "Pall Mall Gazette," strongly urges the summoning of an Imperial Conference *»t the earliest possible moment for the sole purpose of considering the consolidation of the Empire. Mr Massey said he had no ambitious projects as to the creation of an Imperial Parliament. However attractive such a scheme might be to enthusiasts, it was premature. A much less pretentious structure would meet present requirements. The creation of an Empire Council, with executive power to deal with certain practical questions, would be a great step forward.
