SYDNEY TELEGRAPH" ON MR. MASSEY'S SPEECH.
(United "Press Association. —Copyright. SYDNEY, Mar. 23.
The "Daily Telegraph," commenting on Mr Massey's speed*, states that it is undoubtedly a. fact that British interests in the Pacific are safeguarded by the Anglo-Japanese alliance. No good purpose can be served by refusing to admit it. It is not correct to say that Australia and New Zealand are protected by Japanese ships and men. Mr Churchill did not say it. No naval expedition from Europe need be feared, an attack by the United States is unthinkable, and so also is an invasion by any of the South American republics. There remains only Japan, since China may be ruled out for some time to come. Therefore, obviously, the alliance secures safety.
