SACRIFICE
Washington, To-day.
Comment on British conscription is reserved, and will probably be largely withheld until it is seen how the British electorate and the Dominions react. Mr. Neville Chamberlain's justification for intro- ducing conscription in peacetime on the grounds that the present is not peacetime, will doubtless be weighed against the efforts he will make to ensure equal sacrifice by all classes.

REGARDED AS GESTURE
German comment is that Chamberlain's statement disposes of the theory that Sir Nevile Hen- derson brought back a threat of conscription in order to influence Germany, as it was introduced without waiting the outcome of Sir Nevile's visit to the German For eign Office, whom Sir Nevile in- formed of the decision.

Outlining the Australian Gov- ernment's defence policy yester- day, the new Premier, Mr. R. D.
