Add to basketItem description from seller
8vo, 2 pp. Text clear and complete. Good, on lightly-aged paper. He is 'sorry' that Harlech has 'left the Colonial Office, upon which you have produced such a profound and salutary effect'. From the point of view of the I.L.O. Harlech's departure is 'particularly regretted, as your new labour policy touched our work at many points and gave our native labour people great encouragement.' He is sending a copy of his 'last report for the I.L.O.' He hopes 'that Nuffield can be made to serve colonial purposes effectively', and would like to 'talk this over' with Harlech, 'when I am in England'.
