last, and the 23rd August last-( attached )~from which

I gather that no whaling Licenses have been issued

to them since that contained in luP. No. 435/190#,f0**

the season 1909-10,-(attached).

I fear there does appear to be many Minute2.

Papers which cannot be found,and I venture to express

the opinion that there would seem to be something

wrong,in the proper recording or tho filing of those

papers.

I was at a loss to Know whether it was in-3-!tended to issue a license to Salveson for the season

1910-11,or only to acknowledge the receipt of the

sum of £100 which has been paid into tho Treasury,

for which receipt No.6931*is enclosed. Draft letter

H.E. the Governor,

These papers were considered in

Executive Council this morning. Council decided that in

the special circumstances of the case, the New Whaling

Company be permitted to employ a sixth steam whaler at

New Island during the remainder of the 1912-1913 whaling

season, i.e., until 30th. September next, without payment by them in respect of such permission. Coxincil desired

to point out that this is to be regarded as a special concession and not as a precedent.

He tells me that his Company, as

6th April 1914.

Sir,

With reference to the refund of £100 to Messrs

Salvesen & Co for a whaling licences,mentioned in the 20th

paragraph of His Excellency the Administrators Message to

the Legislative Council introducing the Supplementary Appro

priation Ordinance, 1914,of March last,I have the honour to

report that the One hundred pounds therein referred to, would

appear to be that refunded on Pay Voucher No. 16 of August 1913

Accounts, and would respectfully beg to state that in my humble

opinion it would appear, now that One hundred pounds has been

refunded to this Firm, that the New Island Whaling

Chr:

Company havebeen whaling in the waters of the Falkland IaLands since the

1st October 1913, and still whaling, on a Licence for which

the necessary Fee hast been paid, but has since

are

been refunded.2. In support of the above statement I would

give the folio wing facts:-

(a) That under the Whaling Regulations, the perior for which

a Licence may be issued, "shall commence on the 1st day

of October of each year, and terminate on the 30th day

of September of the succeeding year."

(b) That the New Island Whaling Co, commenced to whale in the

waters of the Falkland Islands, in the 1908-09 Season,

have been whaling in the*.

have been whaling in these waters ever since. That is to say they

have been whaling during the following Seasons:- 1908-09., 1909-10.,

1910-11., 1911-12.,1913-13., & 1913-14., making in all

(c) That the fb3.1owing Fees of £100 each have been paid by that

Firm:- 1909. Receipt 5845 for £100., 1910. Recpt:6627 for

£100., 1911. Recpt :6931 for £100., 1912.Recpt:4765 for

£100., 1912.Receipt 5398 for £100., and 1913 Recpt:

5537 for £100. Making a total sum of £600.

Six Seasons.

From the above facts it will be seen that xhe correct

amount of Fees /ad been paid by the New Island Whaling Company

in respect of the Whaling Licences issued to them, and had I not

been on leave when the sum of £100 was refunded to this Firm on

2.

Pay Voucher No. 16 of August 1913, I should have drawn the atten

tion of the Government to these facts.

I she'll be glad to know whether I shell call upon the

refund the sum of £100 paid to them on Pay Voucher No. 16 of
