Asia Looking To The Dominion

For Support

FROM H. KING WOOD

Sydney, Jan. 9. -

Asia today is on the move. Nationalism is on the upsurge and no retrogade forces could possibly keep this avalanche in check, High Com- missioner for India, Mr Duleepsingh ji, declared this week.

He said that even the most cursory look at the map would show how Nature, in its original design, aimed to link the fortunes of Asia and Australia.

"Australia is young in years, hence full of vitality. She has no past to contend with or out-grow. Her history is not marked by any imperialistic ventures. She stands out in South East Asia as a progress- ive, democratic country," he said.
