As a result of the incident and of the Conference, power was obtained in 1907-8, by negotiation with Paraguay, Egypt, and Liberia, to withdraw in respect of any self-governing Dominion on a year’s notice. It must not, however, be thought that by obtaining power to withdraw or to exempt self-governing Dominions from the obligations of treaties, those Dominions are by that fact shut out from the benefits of the treaties in question.
