The

following communication was issued from the office of the Colonial Secretary yesterday:-

The Emergency Regulations published in the Government Gazette of September 6, 1940, make it clear that the Government; is determined to implement to the fullest possible degree the instrue- tions received from the Secretary of State for the Colonies in the matier of the evacuation of Bri- -tish women and children,

Frequent requests have in the past few weeks been received for the return to the Colony of evacuated women, and His Excel- lency wishes to make it clear that he is only prepared to consider the use of his permissive powers in entirely exceptional cases.

Appeals on medical grounds oron grounds of Individual hardship will not "generally be considered.

The question of dealing with those women and children who; either by failing to depart inde- pendently on an agreed date or by other means, evaded the general evacuation is being actively pur- sued.

Refugees In The Colony

An increase at 87 in the num ber of refugees and destitutes ac- commodated in the Colony in Gov. ernment camps, etc., in the Urban and Rural Areas is revealed in the returns for the week ending on September 7.
