PROBLEM OF EMPIRE

Gather The Harvest From The Colonies

-Lord Beaverbrnok),

PLEA TO COMMONS

The following is an open letter by Lord Beaverbrook to the London 'Daily Ex- presa:

"The Crown Colonies have no members in the House of Commons.

"The distressed areas have! many members, valiantly winning for their constitu-f ents the attention of public cpinion.

"The problem of the distressed; areas is the problem of our people. If we help the men and women in these areas we help our own trade. The good deed will have its reward.

"And the same is true of the Colonies.

"If we develop the Colonies, increasing their production and. expanding their trade, and givej Britain the right to reap where she has sown, we will gather the harvest.

"And what opportunities await us! What a necessity for development!

"The raw cotton was an in-l portant crop in British Guiana A century ago. Now production is negligible. But we have only to take the decision, and we can restore the cotton output to the level which it. formerly attained."

We can build up a splendid industry, supplying Lancashire

with raw cotton which at present! it buys from foreign lands that: do not buy our textiles.

"That is only one example drawn from a small Colony. But there are great Colonies. There are countless opportunities.

"We cannot have members for Crown Colonics until the Consti- tution is altered.
