LONDON, Feb. 28
The “Times’’ Wellington correspondent states that the manoeuvres emphatically demonstrated 1 the weakness of the New Zealand defence system in scientific training, and the inefficiency of several officers. He adds that ho gathered in conversation with Lord Kitchener that- the -geographical situation of New Zealand and Australia will necessitate a considerable measure of interdejjenden.ee regarding defence, .because an enemy landing in one country would be a menace to the other. Hence both should adopt the same system. As New l Zealand is at present unable to afford, a Training College, her officers should be trained in the Commonwealth. Lord Kitchener favored the establishment of scholarships.
