and
the
British
self-governing
domini-
nns.
People
sometimes
talk
as
if
the
dominion
partnership
were
a
one sided
affair
in which
the
dominions
gave
up
something
of
abstract
independence
and
we ‘n Britain gave
up nothing.
It is not
so.
Britain
has
given up
some
of her
independeneca
in
order
to
make
the
dominions
imperial
partnership
a
real
thing.
There
can
only
be
one
foreign
policy
for
the
Empire,
but
precisely
bacause
there
can
be
only
oone
foreign
policy
the dominions
are called
igto
con-
sultation.
The
foreign
policy
is
now
arranged
after
consultation
and
agrea-
ment
with
the
dominions.
The
Brit-
ish
Government
has
given
up
the
prictice
which
thev
formerly
exer-
cisad
of deciding
foreign
polities with-
out
consultation
with
the
domini-
ons.
Even
the
standard
and. streangth
of
the
Beizish
Navy,
[
understand,
was made
a subject
of consultation
be-
tween
the
dominions and
an
agreement
with
the
British
Government.
The
re-
cent
[mperial
conference
in
fact
thz
dominion
partnership
is
not
something
in which
tne
British
Government i 3 su-
perior and
the
others
subordinated.
It
is an equal
partnership
hetween
rhe
par-
ties.
We are
prepared
to
take
Ireland
into
partnership
precisely
on
the
same
terms
as
the
self-governing
dominions.
I believe
it
is
the
orly
solution
at
which
the
Government
is
aining,
we
must
again
have
the
consent
of
the
other
dominions.
You
cannot
bring
a
new
partner
into
the
Imperial
council
board
on
the
same
terms
as
the
old
partners
without
having
the
good
will
of the others’’.
Viscount
Grey
said that
it was
very
likely that
the
consent
of
the other self-governing
dominions
to the
admission
of
Ireland
had
been
secured.
If not,
he said,
he
had
no
reason
to doubt
that
it
could
be
easily
secured.
‘‘But
let
us
bear
in mind,”’ e
said in
conclu-
sion,
‘‘that
when
we
are
talking
do-
minion partnership,
w 2 have got to
make
it real partnership
all through.
We
can-
not
even
diseuss
[reland
coming
into
that
partnership
on
the
same
terms
without
an agreement
with the self-Gov-
erni..g dominiuns
already
in
the
Impe-
rial council.”’

field,
Marshal
Earl Ha« sharply
criticized
the proposed
disbandment
of
four cavalry regiments,
expressing
the
opinion
that such
a step
was
not
justified
by
the
lessons
of the
war.
Karl
Haig
declared

had
sufficient

to throw

scuth
west
of

on

the
result
might have been
disastrous
for theAllies.
The
war
has
taught
emphatically,
he
said,
that cavalry
was
an
essential
arm
of the service,
and
could
not
be replaced
by tanks,
aeroplanes
or heavy guns.
