HISTORIC_DECISION.
A RICH TERRITORY,
London March 2. The Judielai Committee of the Privy Council have dellvored their considered report on litigation, of general historical intorest and of particular practical importance to the Dominion of Canada and of the Colony of Newfoundland. The ques- tion for decision was what is the location and definition of the boundary in the Labrador Ponin- sula under Statutes and Orders in Council.
This has been in dispute for many yenia. The decision now given favours Newfoundland.which thus acquires about 120,000 square miles in Labrador. Although ap parently forbidding and inacces- able this territory is rich in timber suitable for pulp and paper and has considerable water power.- British Wireless.
Definition of Word.
The case concerned the bound- ary in the Labrador Peninsula and largely hinged on the definition of the word-"const" as used in the early grants and maps.
