George Pearce, has announced that neither ex-German New Guinea, now held by the Commonwealth under mandate, nor any other Australian territory, will ever be handed over to any but British control.

"By reason of its geographical position In rela- tion to Australia, its natural harbours and its facili ties for naval and military aircrafi, ex-German New Guinen is of considerable strategic value to Austri lia from a defence uspect," Sir George said.

"Every country is entitled to examine any inter- national issue In the light of its own security and national interests, and the inviolability and Integri- ty of our Australian territories is as much a cardinal wim of the Australian people as the Whita Australia policy."
