DEA8963-A-40

Minister of Co-operation and Co-operative Development of Saskatchewan
to Secretary of State for External Affairs

Regina, January 20, 1947

Dear Mr. St. Laurent:

May I inform you that by Order-in-Council No. 47† adopted on January 10th, the Government of Saskatchewan has appointed Mr. Graham Spry representative of the Province of Saskatchewan in the United Kingdom and in Europe. Mr. Spry's duties will be primarily concerned with the promotion of trade between this Province and the United Kingdom and Europe, hut he will generally represent the interests of the Government and for this purpose will have the status of an Agent-General.

In taking this step, the Government of Saskatchewan has no other desire than to co-operate with the various departments of the Government of Canada represented overseas. Mr. Spry will be instructed to keep your own and other Departments informed and he will largely rely on them for information and guidance.

I would be glad to be advised if there are any formalities which should be observed in making this appointment and in establishing relations with departments of the United Kingdom or of other Governments in Europe.

Mr. Spry will proceed to London in the middle of February. I should be glad if you will allow him to call on you, when he is in Ottawa.

Yours truly,
L.F. MCINTOSH
