It is suggested that the Scottish Union, which always is most aloof, especially towards Dominion players, is probably the'principal force behind the decision .which two years before the proposed tour declares a sufficiently representative side is not available. It is pointed out that the English Union, with.which New Zealand and New South Wales are affiliated and whose relations are most friendly, might undertake a tour alternatively as AngloWelsh and Anglo-Irish sides, but the situation demands most careful handling, as the International Board, ■on which neither New South Wales nor New Zealand is represented, might resent the suggestion that a tour be. made by an individual nation. .
