PACIFIC CABLE BOARD
HITCH OVER. CHAIRMANSHIP
(By Electric Telegraph—Copyright) (Australian & N.Z. Cable Association)
LONDON, 25th July
The Pacific Cable Board, including Sir Campbell Stuart, considered the crisis caused by Sir, Campbell Stuart's refusal of the. managership. Air Head lam, chairman, representing the Treasury, submitted Sir Campbell Stuart's letter in which he insisted that the chairmanship was a whole-time job with wholetime remuneration, which his membership of twenty directorates rendered impossible. It is understood the board is unable to proceed with the managership until authorised by the respective Governments, to whom the matter has been referred.
It is pointed out that Sir Campbell Stuart is Canada's nominee, and therelore it is probable that Canada will nominate a successor subject to- the approval of Britain, Australia and New Zealand.
