THE MIND OF NEW ZEALAND,
A VERY CANDID ARTICLE.
BY M. C. RANE, EDITOR OF THE PRESS,"
'CHRISTCHURCH, NEW ZEALAND.]
New Zealand is growing fast. In 1873 its population was 800,000; in 1900 it was 750,000; today it is a million and a third. ITH But we have become conscious that the rest of the work is growing too, and that there is next to no change in the one great fact which appresses us, namely, our isolation.

Twenty years ago it troubled us' little that we were on miles from Great Britain. War could not come nearer to us than the North Sea, and the Navy coull attend to that; we could always sell all the wool and "meat and butter that we could produre; and we could horrow all the money we needed.
To-day uur old sense of perfect seentity is.gone, although we can still sell our produce to Britain and can sti!? ruise Toans there, adding to the debt which mainly accounts for the growth in our population and our activities. We are entirely dependent, that is to say, upon Great Britain, and more of us realise this every day.
DOMINION DIFFERENCES.
We feel no strong sense of closest kin- ship with any of the other States of the Empire: Their problems are not ours, nor their ways our ways.

Australia jars upon us very often, and the measure of our affinity is the fact that the compound word Australasia" is my longer seen in print in New Zealand, and has been condemned tacitly and express- ly by the Press, and even by some of the large public organisations. South Africa. with its Hertzeg and its incalculable Labour Party, merely makes us uneasy. We have not yet reached the stage af alightly agonised wondering what will be come of us, but we do realise very acutely that our future is more than ever bound up with the future of the British Isles. We might borrow, money from America: we might sell all our produce, instead of some only of it, to America or "Europe; but we do not wish ever to be forced into doing this through Britain's loss of her The New Zealander present position. does not want to think of existence other- wise than under the Union Jack

New Zealanders love and respect the spirit of England, and while they fully understand the extent of the, over-ses Dominions efforts in the Great War, in- cluding their own, they understand just as clearly the magnitude of Britain's sacrifice and the great courage and us selfishness of her policy since the ending of the war.
"Britain is good enough for me." "is a phrase I-heard from the late Mr. Massey many a time, and it is the sentiment of most people in this Dominion. The late Mr. Seddon used to speak in thrilling toues of the Empire; Mr. Mussey pre ferred to speak of the Mother-country, which still means more to us than the Empire does. One doubts whether Mr. Mackenzie King or Mr. Stanley Bruce would ever way Britain is good enough for me" unless with annihilating quali
