191 END

possible acquisition of the Colony's public

utilities by foreign groups with considerable apprehension, and 1 shall be glad to learn

from Your Lordship how such a menace has been

countered in other parts of the British Empire

and to be supplied with copies of any legislative

enactments dealing with this subject. I should

also be glad to receive guidance from Your

Lordship as to the best means of insuring that the public utility companies of this Colony shall

remain in British hands.

4. I trust that I may receive an early

reply to this despatch.

I have the honour to be,

My Lord,

Your Lordship's most obedient, humble servant,

Governor, &c.
