Would Make Jack All-Empire Flag LONDON 0 Suggestion that something be added to the Union Jack to make it a "true flag representing the whole Empire" is advanced by Sir Lavington Bonython, vice-chairman of the board of directors of the Adelaide Advertiser In South., Australia. "All loyal subjecte., 'tb,e Empire are proud of the Union Jack," he said in a letter published In the Dally Telegraph. "But Great Britain has her own flag, and so have each of the Dominions . . . but there is no common emblem. Why do we not add something to the Union Jack, something which vflille not necessarily very marked, would make It a flag really representing the whole Empire? For example, we could make some such addition as a tiln cross, which would be noticed only when the flag was critically examined."
