THE DEFENCE QUESTION.
A GENERAL STAFF. (Received April 24, 9.1 a.m.) LONDON, April 23
The Imperial Conference has resumed
Mr Haldane moved that the conference, without wishing to commit the Governments represented to immediate action, recognises th© need for developing throughout the Empire the conception of a general staff, recruited from the Empire's forces, becoming a means of festering the study of military science, tho collecting and disseminating: of military information, and the undertaking of the preparation of a scheme of defence on a common principle without the least interfering with the questions of command and administration. Such a staff would be capable of advising the various Governments regarding the direction of war and military organisation throughout the Empire. The resolution was carried.
