Com- prised of nine Malay states of the Malayan Peninsula and two British posscssioiis. Pcnans: and Malacca, the new nation is about the size of the three Maritime Prnviiices. It has I population of approximately six millions.

It is 'el iiiiilii-racial slate - .li;ilziy.-, Chinese. Indian. Pakisiaiiis and a Imatteriiig of other races incliidiiiiz, a relatively small iiiiinbci" oi people of British riricestry.

It is not unreasonable to expect members of Parliament-whether of the ('ommons or the Senate - to be capable of expressing their opin- ions lucidly. Above all. they should be capable oi using proper restraint of language. that is to say. of stat- ing publicly only what they are pleased to have appear 9n the of- ficial record. Most of them, it is safe to say. are persons of that calibre. It is not eood for the others or for Parliament as a whole that inadequacies or irresponsible drama- tics be hidden under an editor's benevolence.
