Sir Ian Hamilton, speaking in support- of the toast of Senator Pearce, tüld a story of the day when he first" inspected the Australian troops in Egypt, on March 29th, 1913. That night, after a very tiring time, he made the entry in his diary Fiae day This 30,000 crowd of Birdwood's would straighten out the back of a pacifist."
General Birdwood, who also supported the toast. congratulated Senator Pearce on having been one of the signatories to the effect the death warrant of the oldest and most effete of the monarchies of Europe.
Senator Pearce, in reply, mentioned with some pride that, although Austra lia is a very long way from Europe, in eight months from the declarasion of war 30,000 Australian troops were in the field, fully equipped and armed put of Aus tralia's own resources except that we were 17,000 rifles shurt because the, British Government had commandeered them." (Laughter.) Out of a population of five millions over half a million Australians offered, their services under a scheme of voluntary enlistment, and 400,000 of them were accepted: Australia also contribut- cd a Navy consisting of battle cruiser, three secund-class cruisers,, six destroyers, and two submarines; and she had, at the

But, ho asked, what was to be the out- Come of the Empire's war effort Ja one sense, during the war the Empire had been reaping the harvest, and, in another sense, sowing the seed. It the Empire.was to be no more in the future than it had been in the past then we should not have. gathered the fruits of the efforts that bad: been made.. To obviate that danger we should, first of all, take down the sign John Bull, Limited, and put in its place Jubn Bull and Sons, Unlimited. (Cheers.) We could not be content with fine sentiments. There must be definite arrangements.
Trade to-day, he proceeded, took the place of the war of yesterday. We bad shown that we could co-operate in war, Could we not do the same in commerce) Trade for the benefit of the Empire ought to be just as well organised as the armies were for battle; and one of the great secrets of success in trade was the use of shipping for the general service of the Empire, He had read in the English Press that the rate of exchange was against England. "There are some markets in the world," he declared, "i which England would be welcomed before, any other country! (Hear, hear.) But we cannot buy from you unless we can sell to you, and unless the trade can be made mutually advantageous"
