CHAP. III] THE CONFERENCE OF 1911 1489 steamers of not less than 10,000 tons, and capable of perform- ing the voyage at an average speed of 16 knots. That in addition to this a fast service be established between Canada and Great Britain, the necessary financial support required for both purposes to be contributed by Great Britain, Canada, Australia, and New Zealand in equitable proportions. 11. Imperial Court of Appeal : That it has now become evident, considering the growth of population, the diversity of laws enacted, and the differing public policies affecting legal interpretation in His Majesty’s oversea Dominions, that no Imperial Court of Appeal can be satisfactory which does not include judicial representatives of these oversea Dominions. 12. Uniformity of Laws : That it is in the best interests of the Empire that there should be more uniformity throughout its centres and dependencies in the law of copyright, patents, trade marks, companies, accident compensation, naturalization, immigra- tion, aliens exclusion, currency, and coinage. 13. Shipping : That the self-governing oversea Dominions have now reached a stage of development when they should be en- trusted with wider legislative powers in respect to British and foreign shipping. 14. Reciprocity in destitute persons law : That in order to relieve both wives and children, and the poor relief burdens of the United Kingdom and her Depen- dencies, reciprocal provisions should be made throughout the constituent parts of the Empire with respect to destitute and deserted persons. 15. Income tax : That it is inequitable that persons resident in the United Kingdom who, under the laws of a self-governing dependency, pay an income or other tax to the Government of such dependency in respect of income or profits derived from the dependency should have to pay a further tax in respect of the same income or profits to the United Kingdom ; and there- fore it is most desirable that Imperial legislation should be introduced to remove the disability. 16. Stamp duty on Colonial bonds : That in order to encourage investment in the bonds of oversea Dominions it is desirable that debentures or other securities issued in the United Kingdom by, or on account of, the Governments of the self-governing dependencies should be exempted from stamp duty.
