  • Dominion Status*
    DOMINION STATUS* ]. H. MORGAN N November 18th, 1926, a Report by a Committee of the O Imperial Conference on 4'Inter-Imperial relations"-! would ask you to note the title, for it is important in the light of subse­ quent controversy-was signed by Lord Balfour, and was subse­ quently adopted by the Imperial Conference. It contained, among many other things, the following sentence which Lord Balfour thought so important, as indeed it was, that he emphasized it with italics: The group of self-governing communities composed of Great Britain and the Dominions, their position and mutual relation, may be readily defined. They are autonomous communities within the British Empire, equal in status, in no way subordinate one to another in any respect of their domestic or external affairs, though united by a common allegiance to the Crown, and freely associated as members of the British commonwealth of nations. These words were big with destiny. They have been the subject of speculation,· interpretation, dispute, not only within the British Empire but outside it. They have excited the most lively curiosity among foreign jurists, not excluding American jurists. One of these, Professor Loewenstein of Munich, has lately sent me a commentary of his own upon them, in which he describes the Report embodying them as the "Magna Carta of the British Com­ monwealth"-Die Magna Carta des Britischen Weltreiches. The synonym is not inapt in one respect; namely in this, that it was well and truly said by Maitland of the most sacramental words in Magna Carta that it was possible for subsequent generations to worship them because it was possible to misunderstand them.
