Referring to our telephone conversation of yesterday

on the question of obtaining meteorological information from ships

by means of wireless telegraphy, I forward you herewith drafts of

a notice and a few instructions, which I think might be printed in the Government Gazette, and circulated among shipmasters willing

to co-operate.

2. The instructions should be amplified by the inclusion of any technicalities the circumstances may require, and I should appreciate any remarks or suggestions you would care to make in the

matter. Your active help would be invaluable, as the association of your Department with shipping and shipmasters is so close.

3. The importance of receiving meteorological informa- -tion from the sea areas adjacent to the China Coast cannot be over

estimated; observations received from all vesels trading in thes8 waters equipped with wireless would constitute the greatest aid to efficiency that this department has received for many years.

Yours etc.,

(Sd.) C. W. Jeffries,

Director.
