HC Deb 26 March 1914 vol 60 c574W
Mr. POINTER

asked the Secretary of State for the Colonies what is the rate of mortality during the years 1911 and 1912 among imported labourers in the Straits Settlements and Federated Malay States, showing separately the rate of mortality among Indian coolies during those years?

Mr. HARCOURT

I have not sufficient information to enable me to answer this question, but I am requesting the Governor and High Commissioner to furnish it.
