Trap T

the circumstances explained in the Governor's

despatch I submit that we have no option but

to accept his recommendation.

The matter is urgent as the Supply

Bill is down for its first reading on the

16th September, and an announcement will then

have to be made on the subject. I have kept a

copy of the draft telegram, in the hope that

I may get your instructions by telephone

to-morrow morning, in which case the telegram

could be despatched at once.
