EARLIER TELEGRAMS.

THE EMPIRE'S PRESS.

London, April 15. Lord Athuisian, chairman of the Imperial Press Canter ence in Canada, was entertained at luncheen at the Savoy m connection with the British Newspaper proprietor Conler- Lord Burnham preside The guests included the Duke of Devonshire and Lord Miler, Commissioners Perley, Mackenzie and Fisher, and editors and managers of a hundred British and Dominions newspapers. Lord Burubam, toasting Lord Athelstan, hoped the conference at Ottawa would con- tinue its splendid work. It was the first Conference for the general good of the Empire. Lord Athelstan, replying, said *Britain was best able to state how the Press Conference would benefit the Empire. He was of opinion it would be a more profitable conference and result in increasing emigra tion rather than lowering press cable rates. Lord Milner, toasting Canada, said the war witnessed the rise of a new and great power, destined to increasingly induence the coun- cils of the Empire. The World Press Conference was most valuable in establishing community of ideas, to which could be attributed the marvellous way the whole Empire had pulled together in the hour of trial. In the absente of common Council of the Empire, the moral unity of the Empire would largely depend on the success of the Empire pressevolving a common stock of ideas regarding the future grest problems.

DISARMAMENT OF GERMANY.

Another 3,500 guns on the Southern and Eastern fortifications have to be handed over. Thas to 'gether 17,500 German guns are being destroyed by the inter- Afied Commision. The Air Ministry estimates that Germany has 13,000 aeroplanes available for war purposes These are now being listed with a view to being taken over by the Commission Mr. Churchill declared the work was being. accelerated with all possible speed and the German authorities were not in any way costroversial. He was quite satisfied the course being parsued by the Anglo-French authorities was one which would be conducive to one of the most im- portant objects of the Treaty, namely the disarmament of Germany.
