Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Outlook, Vol. 86: A Weekly Newspaper; May-August, 1907 In spite of hospitalities so numerous and so exhaust ing that several Premiers were compelled temporarily to seek te tirement, the Conference has organized the movement of which it is an expres sion, so as to consolidate and perpetuate it. The general trend of the organiza tion is perhaps indicated by the change of title from the Colonial to the Im perial Conference. The meeting of the Prime Ministers of the Colonies with the Prime Minister of the Home Government is to be held every four years; it is to be presided over by the British Prime Minister, who is to be ex-officio President of the Conference; the Premiers of selfgoverning colonies and the British Colonial Secretary are to be ex-othelo members; and other members are to be appointed by the respective Governments. Each Gov ernment is to have one vote, and every discussion is to be conducted by not more than two representatives of each' Government. In order to keep the vari ous Governments well informed of one another's movements during the inter vals of the Conferences, a permanent secretarial staff is to be established under the direction of the Colonial Sec retary, the duty of which shall be to obtain information for the use of the Conference, Conduct its correspondence, and attend to the carrying out of its resolutions. Subsidiary conferences are to be held between the representatives of the different Governments when mat. Ters of importance cannot be postponed until the next general Conference. This is a long step toward binding the colonies in closer relations with the Home Gov ernment, and bringing into cooperation the different parts of the British Empire.
