PACIFIC CABLE BOARD
CHAIRMANSHIP CRISIS A DIFFICULT POSITION By Cubic. —Press Association. —Copyriyht LONDON, Monday. The members of the Pacific Cable Board, including Sir Campbell Stuart, met to-day and considered the crisis caused by Sir Campbell’s refusal of the chairmanship. Mr. M. F. Headlam, who represented the Treasury, presided. He submitted Sir Campbell’s letter, in which he said the chairmanship was a whole-time job, with whole-time remuneration, which his membership of 20 directorates rendered it impossible for him to accept. It is understood that the board will be unable to proceed with the matter of the chairmanship until the members have been authorised by their respective Governments, to whom the matter had been referred. As Sir Campbell Stuart was Canada’s nominee, it is considered probable that Canada will again nominate a chairman, subject to the approval of Britain, Australia and New Zealand.— A. and N.Z.
