Agreement between the Crown Agents and Messrs. George Philip & Son, Ltd. respecting the copyright and the pub- lication of the lecture on the West Indies to be prepared by Mr. Aspinall.
Suggests that the High Commissioner of each Dominion should make use of one of the various Colonial premises in London for lectures making known the charms of England, for the benefit of visitors from their Colonies to London, and that he should be ap- pointed as the Committee's official lecturer and organiser of lectures in the United Kingdom, the necessary arrangements as to fees and cost to be Bettled between himself and the High Commissioners.
States that No. 146 will be laid before the Committee at their next meeting, but suggests that, as the subject is rather outside the Committee's pro- vince, he might do well to communi- cate with the Royal Colonial Institute and the Victoria League as well as with the High Commissioners.
