Sir Jose; !1 t ar,i Says Motherland Must ' Admit Overseas Dominions To Her Councils, London, .,Jan. 24.—Sir Joseph Ward, ex -Premier of New Zealand, speaking ata gathering of the Em- pire ,Parliamentary Association in the House of 'Commons to -day, de- clared that while ho recognized the great step p forward which had been taken in inviting the representa- tives of the overseas dominions to tat SIR JOSEPH WARD. the Imperial Defence Committee, he did not think that sufficient under present conditions. The time was coming when the Motherland would' see the necessity of making a change in the repre- sentation by the overseas domin- idns and would enable the Mother- land, as the predominant partner, s to ben controlling party of an altered constitution for the pre- servation n 01lhe dominions as well as the Motherland itself. His opinion as an independent citizen was that they would never solve the present difficulty until the genius of :British statesmen provided that the work of defence, foreign affah's- and trade development and things that were common to them all was put into the hands of an Empire parliament, free from local affairs . They would never, in his opinion, see the, fabric of the :British Empire made strong and powerful and irresistible without establishing a great Imperial navy controlled by an Imperial parlia- ment, " which would make for :the peace Of the world for the next generation, Without attempting to put bis oar into polities of the Old World, he looked forward to Lite time when men o:fthe Empire would be able so to control the de- stines of the. Empire' that no single power or combination of powers would be able to do anything but recognize that there hacl never been anything :to compare with it, In ,Kew Zealand they had done everything possible to defend themselves against a raid.' If they believed in one Empire, one King? one flag, eget did, then they ought to believe in one people. He hoped the great minds of this country would realize that some change of system was . essential so that all parts of the Empire could have re- presentation without its being re- garded as a compliment but a right overseas to enable them to do something to help the British Em- pire tobecomegreater and more powerful than it was to -day.
