In no circumstance Is it consistent
with ths safety, security and unity of
the British empire that Germany's
colonies should be returned to her,
declared A. J. Balfour, the .British
foreign secretary, in a speech at the
luncheon of the Australian and New
Zealand club today. ; j " ; .
Mr. Balfour said It was absolutely
essential that the communications of
the British empire shouPJ remain
safe. He asked if the German colon
ies were returned what security was
there that their original possessors
would not use them -as bases lor pi
ratical warfare. .." ' v ' - : '1
Tha doctrine '.that i the . colonies
should not be returned, Mr. Balfour
claimed, was not selfish . and Imperial
istic,. It was one in wnicn tne inter
Mtav nt tha world .were . almost as
much : concerned as the Interests of,

to .remain united it was aosoiuieiy
necessary that v communications - be

the mercy of an unscrupulous power.
