"The work of the Trade Commissioners was under investiga- tion by the Dominions Royal Commission. In their report, issued in February, 1917, they made strong recommendations in favor of an increase in the number of trade Commissioners in the Dominions and of an extension of the Trade Commissioner service to other parts of the Empire. The Board of Trade had simultaneously been en- gaged on a scheme for the strengthening of the service, and it was decided to increase the number of Trade Commissioners from four to fifteen or sixteen. Under the new scheme, so far as the allocation of posts has been decided at present, it is proposed that four of the Commissioners shall be stationed at important centres in Canada, the senior of them dealing also with trade in Newfoundland; two Trade Commissioners .stationed in Australia and in New Zealand; two in South Africa; two in India; one in the West Indies; one in the Straits Settlements, and one unattached to,any definite station overseas but available in the Department for any special service. "As a final comment on the value of the Trade Commissioner Service, attention may be called to the following resolution passed unanimously on the motion of General Smuts at the Imperial War Conference on April last: The Imperial War Conference welcomes the proposed increase of the Board of Trade service of Trade Com- from time to time to the Department of Overseas Trade and to the governments of such parts
