Lord Camrose presided over the lunch at which Lord and Lady Jellicoe. the Agcnts-Gcneral for New South Wales, Victoria, South Australia and Western Australia were present. Lord Bledisloe said that in the New Year’s Honours list there was no more notable name than that of Sir Joseph Ward. He expected London would (ollow the example of Wellington and demand a permanent carillon.
Lord Jellicoe said that although he was just recovering from a severe operation, he came to Hyde Park to hear the carillon. Sir Granville Ryrie said he did not begiudge New Zealand her carillon, but asked why it was not going to Australia.
