Cardinal Moran Interviewed
SYDNEY, March 22. Cardinal Moran, interviewed, said he had always been, favour of building Dreadnoughts for Australia, as by so doing, it would strengthen the British. Government's naval projects in a marvellous manner, but he looked upon the proposal to give a Dreadnought to England as a piece of hysterical fanaticism, not to w folly. England had money enough to build any number of vessels and only required the whole of the people of the Empire to correspond in their determination to maintain the supremacy of the nation. To send a ship home would be like- sending coals to Newcastle, whereas securing half a dozen Dreadnoughts for the Pacific w?ll not only benefit this young country, but will also assist England to maintain the peace of the world.
