your experience, the appointment of a Town Planner of
standing for such length of time as would enable him
to draw up a detailed plan or
development or the
visit of in the first instance, a Consultant is likely
to be most profitable.
We should also be very grateful
if you could suggest the names of any suitable persons
who might be approached in either capacity and give us
some indication of what salary they would be likely to
expect.
We have considered telegraphing to the Governor and
seeking a clearer definition of his requirements but think
it is probable that he does not himself know what would be
best and wishes advice from this end. We should be most
grateful for any help that you can give us. My Secretary
of State is taking a personal interest in this appointment
which he regards as of considerable important at the present
time. Consideration of it has unfortunately been delayed at
this end and I would very much appreciate (therefore)an early
reply.
