Mr Barton's Backwardness.
Another Complaint.
lieceived December 18, 10.10 a.m. MELBOURNE, December 18.
Mr McCulloch, in a letter to the press, expresses sad disappointment at nothing being done in regard to his suggestion to send a further Contingent. He understands that certain of Mr Barton's followers are not favourable, and asks is this the reason the Commonwealth is holding back, when Canada and New Zealand are to the fore? He wishes they had someone at the head of the Commonwealth 1 with sufficient backbone, to rise to .tho occa-
sion. Had there been no federation, ' certain colonies long ere this ' would have sent Contingents. . He is inundated with letters from men desirous of volunteering. ' '
