FORMER PREMIER OF SOUTH AUSTRALIA SPEAKS AT UNION

Crawford Vaughan, former Premier of South Australia, will address the members of The Union and the Student Liberal Club in the Trophy Room of the Union at 8 o'clock tonight on the subject of "Greater Britain and America." Mr. Vaughan has been in the United States and England during the past three years and is thoroughly cognizant of the subject of British-American relations. He is at present in Boston where he is delivering a series of lectures on labor problems in Australia at the Lowell Institute.

Before becoming Premier in 1915, Mr. Vaughan served in the Parliament of Australia continuously for ten years, having entered Parliament in 1905. During this period of service he was State-Treasurer and Minister for Lands from 1910 to 1912. Among the important measures passed during his premiership, which he resigned in 1917, were those affecting the remodeling of the educational system, making it one of the most up-to-date in the world, the industrial conditions, and the war policies of his counery.

Came to America in 1917

At the invitation of the United States Government, Mr. Vaughan came to America in 1917 and during the next 12 months addressed some 300,000 people in 26 states on the various war issues of the day. Since the Armistice, he has been in England, for some time the guest of the British government, in Paris for part of the Peace Conference, and in Belgium and Germany. He is associated with the League of Nations Union, of which Lord Robert Cecil is chairman, and with the World's Adult, and Sailors' Adult, Educational Movements, holding the chairmanship of the latter organization. Mr. Vaughan's appearance here tonight is of particular interest, coming as it does on the heels of Premier Hughes' statement yesterday in regard to Australia's stand for a "White Australia."
