- Letter from Mayo to Argyll
- Scope & Content:
- Defends Punjab Canal Bill and begs Argyll not to veto it - believes its principle 'essential to our future financial security, i.e. that the Districts who receive the benefit and who are enriched are to pay for the cost if they can', otherwise he believes irrigation works cannot be continued 'with safety to the future financial position of the Empire'; its other clauses will improve administration of public works – veto would be severe blow to Govt's authority and its efforts to curb 'frightful extravagance and profligate waste which has taken place in every branch of P.W.D. expenditure; leaving imperial revenue alone to bear cost of public works will cause another and greater financial crisis; C-in-C's spendthrift views; sorry Lord Morley has refused Madras; excellent impression made by Wodehouse – Mayo will be surprised if friction persists between Govts of Bombay and India; Burma administration needs invigorating.
