GENERAL MANAGEN

THE ECONOMIC ALLIANCE.

TITANIC UNDERTAKING,

Referring to the text of the resolutions parsed 05 the Economic Conferencn. recently held by the representatives, of the Allied nations in Paris, the Leader of the Federal Opposition in the Conizon - wealth Parliament (Mr.. Cook) recently said I was splendid and dazzling

n to think that 700,000,00, of humans were to join in a league of mutual perfectio and musumi" developmenj. Ping for envite other's' interests of promoting each other's welfare. But the question arises of carrying 'out the resolu rines, jor, it must be remembered, they are, only resolutions. As I seg it, to zime je efect to them, will be a stupendous nad ritardo undertaking.. One remembers the saying. Better in the high aim to fail than in the low nim to succeed,' and we should do better to fail in the attempt than to do nothing whatever. We propose toe holy practically to prohibis at least

a number of years young tradion with the Allies, but also to bring the Infuence of this mighty league to organisa mutral countries on a basis of económic alliance with the Allies. During the rreanstruction of the Allied countries. which may occupy mary Sears, enersy countries shall not be granted the lavoured nation treat theat, and the Allies may fix a number of years during which goods from the Central Powers mag actually be prohibited from entering Allied countries, while special conditions born like period may be imposed upon the shipping of the countries with which, wo are at present at war. In brief, the Allied legne in to win the war. Then, during the period of years evering the reconstruction, alanest entirely to suspend all interecurve with the Central Powers, practicalty maintaining intact and

broken that band of steel which has been so eloquently spoken of. We cannot believe that the Central Powers will be Satish to take their medicine lying down. They will prepare for a further attempt upon the liberties of the world, unless indeed we succeed in oathrasing in Central Europe the idea of public right the basis of all civilised human inter. course. Our Empire will require all its strength to meet the exigencies of the future and to that end should be preached sonud patriotism that makes a nation believe in itself; that makes military. service pub an obligation to stoid if posible, but a national duty. It is n nighty effort we are putting our hands ing and we shall moro thas ever require sword in one hand and the trowel in the other."...
