[MY LORD],

*

Downing Street, 20 March, 1913.

WITH reference to Mr. Lyttelton's Circular despatch of the 13th of April, 1905,† I have the honour to transmit to [Your Royal Highness] [Your Excellency] [you], for the information of your Ministers, the accompanying copies of a Circular despatch which has been addressed to the Governors of the non-Responsible Govern- ment Colonies and the Protectorates with regard to the present position of the work of the Visual Instruction Committee of the Colonial Office.

2. I consider that the work which is now being carried on, and which has in large measure been facilitated by the assistance given by the Governments of the self- governing Dominions and the States of Australia, is of interest and importance for educational purposes as tending to give children in the different parts of the Empire a fuller and more accurate knowledge of the conditions prevailing in other parts of British territory.

3. I should be glad, therefore, if your Ministers will be so good as to bring the work done under the direction of the Visual Instruction Committee to the notice of the [Governments of the Provinces of the Dominion of Canada] [Educa- tional Authorities in [the Northern Territory and Papua] [New South Wales] [Victoria] [Queensland] [South Australia] [Western Australia] [Tasmania] [the Dominion] [the Union] [Newfoundland]].

I have, &c.,
