Iheie ,s. a feeling that something more permanen m the way of machinery for discussion than the present system of periodical conferences is required. ' I do not l say US tie High Commissioner would be of necessity a member of that council, but he would certainly be one of the channels of information between his own Government and the council You may take it, therefore," continued Mr. Reeves, " that the High Commissioner of New Zealand in future is likely to be drawn from the class of men who are well acquainted with public affairs, both Imperial and colonial. This appointment means that New Zealand is not going to sink the political, diplomatic, and Imperial side of her representation in the Mother Country into a mere commercial and trade agency. Do not misunderstand me. The protection of colonial trade here will be part of the functions of the High Commissioner's office, and in time to come a commercial agent will probably be attached to that- office. But the High Commissioner will represent his country as a whole, and not merely the business side of it." .-,■-.
