With measured dignity he enunciated Canadian policy. When he pro- nounced emphatically that Cana- da and Canadians stood for ‘‘One King, One Flag, One Empire and One Navy,” cheering was voci- ferous and enthusiastic. Ap- be sacrificed and that, as regards both immediate . co-operation to meet present emergency and a permanent basis of plans of de- fense, he would say that the Canadian people came of races that had never failed to realize andact upon their responsibilities, Public men of long experience who were present agreed that no more remarkable demonstration ever preeted a colonial premier in this country than on the con- clusion of this speech.. One of the great London dailies, in speaking of Borden says he is now one of the “‘leading, trusted and inspired figures in the arena of public affairs.’’ ' The London Times, in review- ing Borden's speech says ‘‘Cana- dian people could undertake no permanent share in defence with- ont voice in policy which shapes issues of peace and war. Itis a nation with a nation’s rights, a great part of a greater whole, and if'it is to-take its share in imperial defence it must have its proper voice in- relations of empire with foreign powers.’ The Standard uses such phrases as ““Tumultuous welcome,” “Splendid speech which delight- ed hearers to last ditch of enthu- jot of Canada’s autonomy would siagm.”’ On Admiralty Board London, July 10:—The Daily Mail says it may be regarded as certain that the Canadian govern- on the admiralty board and the imperial defence committee, A request of this kind, aceom- panied as’ it would be with definite naval proposals could not be denied, “The presence of Canadian ex- perts in these departments of greatest advantage to every part of the empire. © - ‘Rt.
