WESTERN SAMOA
MANDATES COMMISSION
SIR JAMES PARR2S TRIBUTE
GENEVA, 16th November
The Mandates Commission satisfactorily resolved the apparent contradiction between the findings of the Royal Commission of 192S and the latest Western Samoa report.
Sir James Parr pointed out that the question of administration was not included in the Royal Commission's terms of reference relating .to recent changes in the staff and the financial policy. He declared that the success of the mandates system depended largely on the capacity 'and patience of the Mandates Commission. New Zealand had-always had fair play.
Marquis Theodoli, chairman of the Commissionj said that he regretted that Sir James Parr was leaving Europe. Sir James had always served New Zealand with great ability and discretion.
