STR J. COOK ON BONDS OF LOYALTY.
Sir Joseph Cook, High Commissioner for Australia, was the guest of the Royal Colonial Institute at luncheon at the Eotel Victoria, on July 8th..
Sir Joseph Cook said it was the fashion to-day to describe the Empire as a association of nations standing together on a relationship of perfect equality. With that he agreed, but if that were all the Empire. would be in a poor stats. It was much bigger matter than one of
mere material interest. The self-governe ment of the Dominious was complete; but Proposing the health of Mr. Taft, the the Empire consisted of much more than Chairinan said that he had consistently worked for the co-operation of the AmeriIn his opinion, penetrating the Empire an aggregation of allied Governments.

One of the things he directed attention to was the growing use of arbitration as a means of settling differences between Great Britain and the United States. They had formed in the United States, as they had in this country, the habit of arbitration with respect to every ques tion that could arise between the two con- tries. When he was loaded down upon the American people as their President (aughter), he had some ambition to formulate that spirit of arbitration into a regular contract, 'so be drafted treaties, one with Great Britain, the other with France. He was very enthusiastic, was Lord Bryce, so were a good many other people, and they had their photo graphs taken signing the treaties, as they were going down through the corri dors of Time as one of the great steps forward, and they were all going to figure in the glory. (Laughter.) But when the treaties came back from the Senate with the amendments suggested their own father did not recognize them. (Laughter.) He did not want to be unfair to the Senate. The Senate did not dissent from arbitration, they just dissented from being. bound to it. They did not want to sign anything they were not willing to carry through in the letter and in the spirit. I only indicated that they did not think the time had come them to put into formal obligation that which they felt in their hearts, and which every American knew must always, come, when any question arose between the two peoples. They were all for arbitration on their side of the water, but how far that might be en bodied in defisite contracts giving assur- ances as to the future was a question that he was not in a position to prophesy..
He apologized for detaining them at such length, but he would not have spoken in vain if he gave to anyone who heard him greater confidence in the maintenance of the bond between Great Britain and America, which was so absolutely essential to the saving of the world. (Chyers.)
DUKE WINS £3,000 WAGER.
557 MILES IN 14 HOURS."
The Duke of Leinster, who left London at thren am on July 5th, by motor for Aberdeen, reached his destination at 9.7 at night. He claims to have done the journey in fourteea and a half hours actual travelling time; and thus to have won his wager of £3,000 that he would do the journey of 610 miles in fifteen hours. The Duke deducts stopping time for meals, and for the Firth of Forth ferry
In an interview his Grace stated that the affair arose from a statement that 363 miles was the greatest distance anyone could drive in a day. He wagered with another member of a ducal family, whose name he declined to divulge, that he could motor from the boundary of London to Aberdeen in fifteen hours" actual travel- ling time. When he reached Aberdeen, ha boused his car at a garage where, the, #peedometer, which had been reduced ta zero before, leaving London, was sealed." It showed that the distance covered "was exactly 567, miles, while the route chosen along the East Codit had a mileage of 514). The difference is accounted for by his losing his direction between Riggles- wade and Buckden and again at Barrow- bridge The Thike added that he had another wager to complete the whole dis tance in twelve hours without a stop.
could not help thinking of what could: be done with that sum in the Dominions. The population of the Dominions could be doubled within a few years.. Invested in the Dominions the money would be safe, and there would be no suggestion of Russia. It would provide direct wireless repudiation-which could Bot be said of communication, it would provide efficient dying services to every portion of the
misfom it would help to build noncering railways opening up the great fertile, sunny spaces of the interior of Australia, and it would help to conserve the waters of various portions of the Empire. It had been said that if the money were advanced to Russia it would stimulate trade, but the figures for pre- war daya did not appear to bear out tant contention, The Dominions to-day were the best customers of this country, and while we were generous with our contri. bations towards the reconstruction of other nations, let us not be unmindful of the pressing needs of our own Empire. (Cheera)
BISHOP WELLDON AND MODERNISM-
Bishop Welldon, Dean of Durham, speaking on Modernism" to members and associates of the Victoria Institute at Central-buildings, Westminster, on July 3rd, described that movement as & retro- grade one in that it tended to materialise man's view of the universe at a time when science itself was beginning to spiritualise that view. He believed that it was in consistent with the realities both of Jesus and of Christian history, and that it was: as critically unscientific as it was relig iously undevotional. The survival of the fittest as an article of the Darwinian faith, he said, was the antithesis of the Christian benediction of the poor, the humble, the suffering, and the amicted. It was not a moral doctrine at all. Nietz sche, in his wildest hours, "sinned only. by applying the Darwinian theory to international life. Today the civilised nations exhibited a reaction towards Christian morals. It seemed as though by strong paradox that the triumph of Christ's moral law in international-life was beginning just when it seemed to be failing in social and even personal life.
The Modernists, standing face to face with the orthodox faith and creed of the Church, "could not justly maintain an attitude of neutrality. As the Jewish people survived to attest the general truth of the Old Testament, so Christian Church survived to attest the general truth of the New Testament. It was not the New Testament but the Church which was the standing witness
the
to Christianity. The Church would exist if no single book of the New Testament were existent to day.
