Imperial

Federation League was formed in 1884, under the chairmanship of the late Right Hon. W. E. Forster, who was succeeded by Lord Rosebery. It presented a scheme for I.F. in 1892, and then di olved itself. The points of importance are and (1) how the resources of the Empire can be most effectively (2) combined. The work is being carried on by the United Empire Trade League, the British Empire League, etc.; and the appointment of Mr. Chamberlain as Secretary of State has given a direct . impulse to it. The great authority and speaker on the subject is Mr. J. R. Parkin.
