CALL TO PREMIERS.
CONFERENCE IN LONDON. AUSTRALIA MYSTIFIED. WHAT JUSTIFICATION? By Telegraph.—Press Assn. —Copyright. Melbourne, Dec. 23. Mr. 'Bruce has received an invitation to attend a conference, of Dominion Prime Ministers in London in March. It is . stated that the Federal Ministry is at a loss to understand the motive underlying the summons. The pre posed reorganisation of the Colonial Office, the suggested grant of a million to assist the marketing of Empire produce, and various trade suggestions which are impending, are regarded as easily adjustable by correspondence or cable exchanges. Beyond these matters there does not appear to 'be anything which would justify Mr. Bruce’s absence from the Commonwealth for six months.
If these are the only subjects for discussion it is taken for granted that neither Mr. Bruce nor any of his Ministers would be sent to London to represent Australia.
