·MEETING OF EMPIRE PREMIERS.

London, Jane 11. General Smuts, accompanied by Ministers Smartt and Menta have arrived to attend the Imperial Cabinet General Smuts, in an interview with Renter's representative, said that it was most in convenient for himself and his colleagues to leave South Africa, where the Union Parliament was at prasent dealing with most in portant matters, and he only did so because of the importance they attached to the discussion with their British colleagues. But other Dominion Premiers ware much in the same position and he hoped the sacrifice the Dominions' people had made in sending their Jeaders to London would be justified by the results of their labours General Smuts did not doubt that the forthcoming meeting was of far-reaching importance. A stocktaking of the postwar situation afecting the British Commonwealth was imperative, as nothing could be more dangarous than uncertainty and vacillation. amidst the

present perils of the world situation.

COTTON DISPUTE.

London, June 1.

Dealing with the economic question General Smuts said the Union Government singled out rurrency and banking reform as

the keystone of their economic policy. South Africa's economic posi- tion was exceptionally healthy and strong and it had been a matter of satisfaction to the Union Government that their policy of a central bank and gradual deflation of currency was recommended as a model to other countries by the Financial Committee of the League of Nations. The problem at present confronting the Union was to find markets for its raw products. Hitherto the British home markets had been the Union's chief eustomer, but the present The Manchester cotton dispute conference, mentioned yesterday, depression was not happy and the unsettlements and dislocations lasted for nine hours.

Washington, Juone 11, Admiral Sims' leave of absence to England was revoked to-day. He has been ordered to report immediately to the Secretary of the Navy.

London, June 11.
