§ Mr. P. Smithersasked the Secretary of State for the Colonies whether he will investigate the nutritive value of the fruits of Gulielma utilis with a view to introducing this palm as a garden crop for native peoples in territories where it is not at present cultivated.
§ Mr. J. GriffithsThe possibility of trial propagation of this palm in British Colonial Territories is being examined. At present, so far as I am aware, it is grown only in Trinidad.
