, The Federated Malay States Government has undertaken to 
grant a sum of £100 a year for 5 years to the Department with a 
view to the careful investigation and commercial development ol 
the mineral resources of the States. 
The Government Geologist is collecting specimens for chemical 
examination and after analysis the Imperial Institute winch is in 
very complete touch with the principal manufacturing and other 
industries of the United Kingdom, will bring the specimens before 
manufacturers and others for trial with a view to their commercial 
development, 
it is expected that this action will do much to help in finding 
a market for new products and developing the markets ior those 
already exploited.
