The message urges repeal of sugar differential duty, free coal and iron, a new banking system, stronger gold reserves, withdrawal from Samoa, revival of Schofield’s lieutenant-generalship, expanded army, more navy, registry for vessels built abroad, civil service reform, and Indian education shifts.
