Newfoundland Assembly Debates Fisheries and Trade Prospects
The council discusses a committee to draft an address in reply to the Governor. Topics include better curing of codfish to boost prices, seal fishery profits, rail expansion to Hall’s Bay and George’s Bay, copper and clay deposits, education subdivision, and a possible reciprocal trade treaty with the United States. The speech notes improved customs revenue, rising savings, and hopes for a census, with continued effort on the French Shore dispute and railway development.
