Wireless Company in respect of the

proposed contracts, and I am to say

that before considering the applica-

tion of the Company that they should

be allowed to augment the amount of

their tenders by £175 per station,

Mr. Harcourt desires you to ask

the Company whether, in view of the

proceedings which have been commenced

against them, they are still prepared

to carry out the contracts.

3. In any case with regard to

the proposed station at Barbados

I am to say that the Colonial Govern-

ment he authorised the acceptance of

Co's original

the Anglo-French tender, if the

A

Secretary of State approved; but there

is no authority for acceding to the

request of the Company that they

should be permitted to increase the

amount of their tender by £175, and

it

354

it will be necessary to refer to the

Barbados

Loot Government on this point before Consisting in Guation of entering into a contract on this basis.

n

I em,

etc.

H.L.

for the Under Secretary of State.
