land of the country, which can never be opened up unless British labour of a 

 desirable quality is introduced. It says, "A patchwork system of State-assisted 

 immigration has not succeeded in the past : it cannot possibly meet with success 

 the much greater demands of the future. It is a matter in regard to which the 

 eccentric activities of the irresponsible politician should be as far as possible 

 restricted. A certain percentage of the immigrants to all States during the past 

 years has been made up of undesirables. The scheme ahead must provide for the 

 exclusion of undesirables. We need for the population of Australia men of our 

 own race and our own civilisation, our own traditions and our own points of view." 



" Les Annales des Nationality " 



This periodical discusses from every point of view the questions involved in the 

 relationship of one nation to another, and deals largely with the smaller countries 

 that have been devastated by the war. It includes articles on " France and the 

 Oppressed Nationalities," by C. R. ; "A Fault of the Allies," by Georges Bienaime, 

 in which he displays with much sarcasm the great discrepancy between the boasts 

 of some of the Allies that they are championing the cause of the weak and the 

 actual treatment meted out to such when they come within their power ; and 

 "Conference of the Nations and the Work of its Permanent Commission," by 

 J. Gabrys, which is to be continued in following numbers. It also sets out in brief, 

 in a section entitled Chronicle of the Nationalities, the aims and projects of 

 Bohemia, Bulgaria, Lithuania, Poland, and Serbia ; but the article on Serbia 

 consists chiefly of a tribute to her heroism. 



11 The Southern Slav Bulletin " 



The Jugoslavs, by publishing this little English pamphlet, are endeavouring to 

 keep their aims before the mind of the British public, aims which they hope will 

 be realised for them in the final terms of peace, on the supposition, of course, that 

 victory will perch on the banners of the Allies. They look forward to the time 

 when they can gather under their own rule all of their brethren now condemned to 

 live under the sovereignty of enemy countries. Amongst other matter the number 

 dated May 4 contains articles on the Crown Prince Alexander's visit to London, 

 the Jugoslav National Holidays, and the Cause of Serbia.
