The Prince, replying, after a narrative of his tour feferred to the ex-service men of the Empire as the backbone of the nations. Ka wanted them always to regard him as a comrade. He considered the greatest compliment his being called a digger when he landed in Australia. He was convinced the future of the Empire was safe in the keeping of the ex-service men and convinced that the old eduntry. where the problem of employment was hardest, would do its utmost to give ex-service men a chance. The younger nations were putting their shoulders to the work of development with credit and exter- prise, but they needed our help and sympziby. They were ready to stand by us at any time, but we must endeavour to appreciate their viewpoint.
