§ SIR ANDREW AGNEWsaid, he would beg to ask the Secretary of State for India, If he will take into his favourable consideration the wish of many respectable British Merchants and Traders in British Burmah, to have a High Court of Judicature established at Moulmein?
§ SIR CHARLES WOODreplied, that he was not prepared to incur any considerable expense for the establishment of a Court of that magnitude. The Government had endeavoured to improve the administration of justice there by appointing a barrister; but, upon the whole, they found that the people were not so well satisfied with his administration of justice as they were with the administration of 1950 the lieutenant of the Bengal Artillery who did it before.
