GREAT BRITAIN'S PROSPERITY

DUE TO EMPIRE TRADE

London June 22. Dr. Earle Page, Deputy Prime Minister of Australia, speaking at Birmingham to-day attributed Great Britain's prosperity entirely to the improvement in the Empire trade during the last four years, during which world trade has been almost stagnant. Almost the only ray of daylight, he saw, in a some-" what dark condition of affairs was the increased possibilities of the Empire trade. He advocated the Em- pire policy of nationalisation for secondary, as well as primary in- Idustries which they mist regard not as antagonlstle but as compli- mentary. Such plan could only come through personal collabora- tion of the heads of the individual Industries themselves, to be fol- lowed by ratification of an agree- ment reached and clearing away of administrative and legislative obstacles to their fullest co-opera- tion. Australia has already set a stage for his development- British Wireless,

the figure at which the normal need hesitate to pat his son into proportion of them could look for promotion to the ranks of captain and admiral were constantly ren- dered out of date. The stagnation In promotion persisted, and the consequence was that many first class officers who deserved and were fully qualified for promotion were superannuated for lack of

vacancies. Their fate was a dis- couragerbent to their sons and the sons of their friends.

THE EXAMPLE

That phase has now passed. The example in unilateral dis- armament set by this country has not been followed abroad, and the present urgent necessity for mak- ing good deficiencies in 'the De- fence Bervices ensures that for many years from now the Navy will be an expanding Service. The effect of expansion on the prospects of officers and men is the direct opposite of that of con- traction.
