THE PACIFIC
POLITICAL AND ECONOMIC CONFLICT By TelegrapU—Press Association NELSON, October 25. Mr Frank Milner delivered the annual Cawthron Lecture last evening to a large gathering. His subject was “Political and Economic Conflict in the Pacific.”
In an impressive address Mr Milner made an appeal for Anglo-American co-operation, and sympathetic investigation of Japan’s problems. The position in the Pacific was worse today than when the joint statesmanship of Britain and American, before an incredulous world, staved off the Armageddon by the Washington Pact, which for 14 days had kept the peace! Surely these two great Powers to-iay could transcend the war debts, trading rivalries, and shipping disputes, and again by summoning Japan to a frank conference, find a Pacific solution for her overwhelming problems, were national feeling not so callous as to dis. regard Japan’s overwhelming problems nor constructive statesmanship so beggared as to fall in the solution.
