Australia under British rule has played an important part in pioneering legislation of an experimental character. The Australian Ballot, Women Suffrage, The Torrens System of Land Transfer and a whole volume of laws dealing with industrial relations have been the fruit of our government of the Island Continent. This legislation has been copied far and wide. We could not continue this work if we were overwhelmed by a colored horde from Asia...

It shows, too, the futility of the policy of isolated attacks and unsupported campaigns; in the attempts of Kolchak, Yudenitch, and Denikine, lack of co-ordination was the cause of failure.
