The Secretary reads the following letter 
Kapar District Planters 1 Association. 
Secretary, Klang, July 6th, 1911. 
Planters’ Association of Malaya, 
Kuala Lumpur. 
Dear sir, 
At a Meeting of the Members of my Association I was requested 
to write and ask you to put on the Agenda of your next Meeting the 
re-lighting of bullock carts and slow moving vehicles as it was in the 
opinion of the Members likely that serious accidents would happen if 
this was not brought into force. The idea was that each bullock cart 
and slow moving vehicle such as rickshas, steam rollers, transport 
waggons, transport motors, and gharries should all be ordered to 
carry a red light situated so that the tail end of their load could be 
easily seen. Government has already been approached on the matter 
but seemingly no notice was taken. 
I have, &c., 
E. P. Howard, 
Hon. Secretary. 
The chairman suggests that the reply be that it would be better 
if the Kapar Association or any other association interested wrote to 
the Motor Union and asked them to take the matter up. It 
would come better from that body than the P.A.M. 
Mr. Cruickshank says he takes it that this Association is not in 
sympathy with it. 
The Chairman says no he does not think that at all. The 
Association can express sympathy with it, but the Motor Union may 
probably be able to get more in this way from the Government than 
the P.A.M. It is decided eventually to write to the Motor Union 
and ask them to act. 
The Secretary reads the following correspondence 
Census No 87/191 1 . . , . 
Superintendent of Census Omce,

I have the honour to forward herewith 20 copies of a return 
giving the provisional totals of the population of the estates in the 
Federated Malay States by sex and race. 
I have, &c., 
A. M. PODNTNEY, 
Superintendent of Census, 
Federated Malay States. 
The Secretary, 
Planters’ Association of Malaya, 
Kuala Lumpur.
