OFFURE*
This Company has recently commenced ship-
-ments of Cenent to Vancouver, British Columbia and it would
be of considerable advantage to us if our Cement were allowed to
enter Canada under the preferential duty accorded to all British
manufactures.
We are informed that this privilege is
already given to imports from the Straits Settlements and
Ceylon, and we presume that there will be no objection to Hong-
-kong being placed on the same footing.
We therefore beg to suggest that you will
be good enough to communicate with the Canadian Government with
a view to obtaining this preferential treatment for Hongkong
products sent to canada.
We have etc.,
(Sd.) Shewan, Tomes & Co.,
General Managers.
