The above is a question Mr. W. T. Blood put in the Review of Reviews in anticipation of the meeting of the Imperial Conference:-

If the first radical question before the Con- ference is that of the relation between the Iniporial Government and the Dominions for the purpose of Imperial defence, the second, and rerhaps the more orions and urgent, relation between the Dominions and the other subjects of His Majesty inhabiting Asin. The Premiers bolong exclusively to the White Dominions. It is true that General Botha represents a Colony, the majority of whose inhabitants are not white: but In South Africa the white sentiment is, perhaps on that acooant,
more aggressively dom- luant than it is in any other Dominion. Mr. Figher stands for a White Australia; Gen- eral Botha is responsible for the exclusion of the Asiatic; Sie Wilfrid Laurier has had to face serious diffenities arising from the immigration of Asiatics into British Columbia.
This question of keeping the Dominions white even when, as in Africa, they are already pisbald, divides itself into two. The first relates. to the exclusion of the Indian sabjoots of His Majesty from the white dominions of the King: the second relates to the regulations intended to Ah, thero it fe," sheenid To tollesonde forvigu Asiatics from the British you more I must call the two packs of cards Empire. and the coffee grounds into the service, and you cannot afford that.
