Standing-room on this earth will he full up in another ten centuts if the human race goes on increasing at its present rate.

By that time our descendants may ali be negroes.

Further, our own great-grandchildren will starve on an earth which will not feed them all if this increase continues,

Worse still, the coloured man may oust the white.

These are the startling propositions put before the British Association by Professor J. W. Gregory, D.Sc., F.R.S., President of the Geography Section, in his address at the Toronto meeting.

if it is true that aneasy lies the head that wears a crown, it is equally true that those who form the present Govern- ment have many causes for uneasiness. They are assailed both from without and from within their own ranks. They have the very doubtful satisfaction of know- ing that their every action is closely watched by the inrinbers of their party throughout the length and breadth of the island, and that when, at the annual con- ferences of the Labour party, they are called upon to render an account of their stewardship. there will arise critics on every hand ready to denounce any de. parture from the sacred tenets of the ...$31.00 party as interpreted by any particular

The terrible struggle of the races for land even in 1924 was vividly outlined by Professor Gregory.

The struggle for expansier, which was the ultimate motive of the world war of 1914-15, will inevitably, be, still more bitter and terrible if it became a struggle for existence between the white and coloured races.

The problem of the present century the problem of the colour line.

NECROES IN EUROPE.

A question that is seriously agitating the minds of the labourers is the at titude of their representatives in the Cabinet towards Court functions, and nine districts have tabled resolutions on this subject. Camberwell (North-West), for instance."enters its emphatic pra test against the appearance of Labour.

The drain on sixteenth-century Portu- sal's manhood by ita vast colonial empire halved the home population, and went out of cultivation, famine came, and negroes introduced to till derelict farms were absorbed into the nation.

The dilution of the Portuguese by negro blood is often regarded as one of the main causes in its fall from political and intellectual pre-eminence.

PUSION OF RACES.

When white enterprise has subdued the land, built railways, and utilised the rivers, the coloured man will bust the white from all but the few posts that require experts."

To M. J. H. Thomas, alone among the members of the Government. is given the doubegal distinction of a resolution all to itself. Bow and Bromley roundly demands that in view of Mr J. H. Thomas's general behaviour it be asked that he be excluded from the Cabinet." It is not so very long since Mr. Thomas, when appearing at a dinner in a lounge suit, explained that as there seemed to be growing a doubt whether he was a democrat any longer, he sought to neatralise that feeling by coming **essentially as a plebeian." But the suspicions of the watchdogs of Bow and Bromley are not so easily allayed.
