(i) The telegrams in question deal with at least two separate matters: (1) compensation for lives taken and damage done by rioters, and (2) relief to persons left destitute. An official file on (1) has been ‘marked on’ to the ‘J & P’ and Finance [Committee], but if there is no official file on (2) it might be better to send the first part of his telegram [A2/23/24] privately. From the financial point of view the two questions are separate: (1) can be levied in the localities; the question is how to do it; (2) can only be charity at the Government’s expense.
(ii) Has submitted an official draft telegram to be put on a separate file.
