2. That there should be only one exhibit to be made by the Com- 

 mittee as representing the Governments of the Straits Settlements 

 and the Federated Malay States, and the Planters' Association. All 

 firms here wishing to exhibit should do so through the Committee, 



3. The Secretary, Planters' Association of Malaya, is to try to 

 collect $10,000 from the planters. A copy of his circular letter to 

 planters is attached. With regard to this it was agreed, later at a 

 meeting of the Planters' Association of Malaya, that those firms 

 wishing to do so could forward their subscriptions to Sir W. Taylor in 

 England, other subscriptions to be paid here to the Secretary, Planters 

 Association of Malaya, on the understanding that the Committee 

 here can if necessary draw on the money collected in England. 



4. That the Secretary, Planters' Association of Malaya, is to 

 arrange a preliminary exhibition at Kuala Lumpur in April, 1911. 



5. That a model of a rubber estate be made here, showing factory, 

 manager's house, coolie lines, etc., for the exhibition. 



6. That the model Malay house be again used and that Sir W. 

 Taylor bs asked to supply the measurements for a new attap roof. 



7. That if possible a number of Tamils and Malays be sent over 

 to act as attendants, give demonstrations in tapping, etc., at the 

 exhibition. 



8. That each member of the Committee obtain as many photo- 

 graphs of typical Malay and rubber estate views as possible and that, 

 these should be collected here by the Director of Agriculture, who 

 would select and send such negatives as he thinks fit on to Sir W 

 Taylor for enlargement in England. In this way large and artistic 

 photographs would be obtained and the whole series would be uniform 

 in style, mounting, etc., and could be better fitted to the stands at the 

 exhibition. 



9. Mr. Ridley promised to be responsible for the supply of 

 stumps to show the methods of tapping. 



10. It was agreed to ask the Inspector of Coconut Plantations to 

 get together an exhibit of coconuts, and articles of native manufacture 

 as suggested by Mr. Manders. Mr. Brown has since consented to do 

 this. 



11. It was thought best to leave the decoration of the stall 

 entirely in the hands of Sir W. Taylor. The Committee hope that it 

 will be possible to achieve something distinctively Malayan. 



12. An exhibit of rubber seed oil and oil-cake in large quantities 

 was suggested. Mr. Cummings was spoken to on the subiect and Mr 

 Ridley will try to obtain some also at Singapore. 



13. The Director of Agriculture is to be responsible for a number 

 of diagrams, showing increase in acreage under rubber, increase in 

 ■export, labour force, population, and as many others as possible.
