D.0. 11760/1/30
Sir,
11th December, 1930.
With further reference to your letter of
the 3rd September, I am directed by the High
Commissioner to state that he has received from the
Secretary of the Western Samoan Administration,
copies of the Conditions of Employment which were
printed for presentation to Labourers recruited for
the "Anoey" Transport, which sailed from Hong Kong
about April last. A print is enclosed.
The High Commissioner understands that
the conditions outline the principal provisions of
the Ordinance concerning labourers, but that there
is no written contract. The Ordinance differs from
present actual practice, and it is proposed to
amend it when convenient. In the meantime no
practical difficulties are being experienced.
I am, &c.,
•
(Signed) ALEXANDER CRABB
Secretary to the Department.
