The above resolutions were prepared by the officers of the Royal 

 Agricultural and Commercial Society and the Eoyal Colonial Institute 

 (B.G. branch). 



Sir Charles Cox, in seconding the resolution, said that if it was pos- 

 ble to increase their determination — that determination being now at its 

 highest — to carry on the war to a just and glorious end he thought that 

 the lecture they had heard might add warmth to that determination. 



His Excellency : Of course, this is really non-contentious (laughter), 

 but before putting it I would ask if anyone wishes to oppose it or propose 

 any amendment or addition to it or to take it in section, or to take it in 

 one lump as read by our president. (Laughter.) As nothing is said I 

 must put it in the way moved and seconded, one vote for the whole of the 

 motion. Is the motion agreed to ? 



The motion was carried by a round of applause. 



Professor Harrison having thanked His Excellency for attending, the 

 proceedings terminated.
