Mr. Casey emphasised that he was speaking as an Australian of three generations' standing.

He confessed that Australians got irritable when they read that Hitler had said that in certain circumstances he was willing to guarantee the continued existence of the British Empire.

"We thought that someone else besides Huler would have some say in the not animportant matier whether the British Empire con- inues to exist or not," Casey.
