This would embrace many t servants and members of the Imperial Forces in the Colony. The representa- tion of the Chamber of Commerce would be left unchanged, as it is felt that the important local commercial and shipping interests require direct and expert repre sentation, The Chinese representation would be increased from two to three members in order to maintain the same proportion as at present. These members would continue to be appointed by the Governor.
HE GOVERNOR has reported to the Secretary of State for the Colonies in favour of selection of all non-Chinese members and has added that he is agreeable to an increase in the unofficial element provided that the official element is increased accordingly.
He has expressed a doubt, however, whether any change is generally desired.
